Angst boils in Iowa House forum By Travis.Charlson @iowastatedaily.com One theme was apparent during the Iowa House District 45 candidate forum in Iowa State’s Memorial Union on Tuesday: Voters are frustrated. The forum was intended to give the community a chance to hear the candidates talk about the issues in the upcoming election, but at times, frustrations with the political process boiled over for some in attendance. One audience member shouted from the back, “Our country is broken,” to which another voice in the crowd retorted, “It will always be broken.” During the Q&A portion of the forum, one community member drilled incumbent Democrat Beth Wessel-Kroeschell for not acting on rumors she had admitted to hearing years ago regard-
ing Leath’s controversial use of university planes. One attendee left early shaking his head. Aside from a few moments of tension, Wessel-Kroeschell, Republican challenger Sondra Childs-Smith and Libertarian candidate Eric Cooper were able to share their views on a wide range of topics. Each candidate answered a series of questions from the moderator before the floor opened for a public Q&A, which included issues such as Planned Parenthood, funding higher education, the minimum wage, graduates leaving Iowa and marijuana legalization. Both Wessel-Kroeschell and Childs-Smith said “more needs to be done” to fund higher education, even as tuition rises and state funds for education

Ames City Council members listen to a presentation Sept. 20. An all-inclusive park was proposed at Tuesday’s meeting.
All-inclusive playground proposed at council meeting By Thomas.Nelson @iowastatedaily.com The Ames City Council meeting was packed with Ames residents Tuesday evening over a new inclusive park resolution being proposed by the council members. More people than usual attended the City Council meeting Tuesday evening because of a Miracle League field and all-inclusive playground. A resolution asking the Ames City Council to approve of Inis Grove as a location and for $50,000 for design was passed. Inis Grove Park will be the spot of a new allinclusive playground and Miracle League field. Most, if not all, of the people involved with the planning process have been for the creation of the park, but not everyone has been on board for the location, said Keith Abraham, director of parks and recreation in Ames. Planners wanted to maintain the green space in Ames and modeled the plan of the field around a similar field in Ankeny, Iowa. Several areas were considered for the park location, but each presented problems to the planning, including flood plains. Two options were presented to the Ames City Council on the placement of the all-inclusive play-
SEARCH IS ON Steve Prohm experiments with ISU men’s basketball lineup
By Luke.Manderfeld @iowastatedaily.com KANSAS CITY, Mo. — Going into the season, Iowa State’s lineup looks predictable, outfitted with four seniors and a question mark among three players at the fifth spot. But through a few weeks of practices, Iowa State coach Steve Prohm has gone away from that predictable lineup and has delved into some experimental ones. He has mixed and matched the players down low and has tried to find the sweet spot in the backcourt. He may even move guys around more than he needs to. “I probably change the lineups too much,” Prohm said at Big 12 men’s basketball media day Tuesday. “We’ve been bouncing around a

Schaben focuses on economy in supervisor race By Emily.Hammer @iowastatedaily.com Scott Schaben, the Republican nominee for the four-year term on the Story County Board of Supervisors, visited the Ames Chamber of Commerce on Tuesday morning to talk about his bid for the supervisor seat. During the fourth Coffee with the Candidate event, Schaben discussed that he believes his time as a businessman has made him perfect for the Board of Supervisors. Four years after joining the automotive industry, Schaben was promoted to sales manager. Schaben said his total time spent
in this industry, which now totals nine years, taught him how to understand people of diverse backgrounds and the language of business owners. As a county supervisor, Schaben said all of those abilities are crucial. He believes that by being on the Board of Supervisors and possessing people skills, he and his colleagues will bridge gaps in several communities. “My perspective and my approach to governance will bring a unique perspective to the board,” Schaben said. One of Schaben’s main concerns as the supervisor is the budget. With the first balanced budget in 25 years under the current board, he plans to make sure it stays balanced, calling
himself a “fiscal hawk.” “You should be spending less than you’re taking in,” Schaben said. “If you’re an elected official and you’re afraid of [telling people no], you shouldn’t be an elected official.” As Story County supervisor, he plans on “telling people no” to avoid excess governmental spending and to create a strong and growing economy with what he calls his “brand of pragmatic leadership.” Schaben believes what sets him apart from other candidates is his approach. He said he tries to approach problems with more of a wide angle rather than focusing on a particular issue or topic. He also said that his ability to think freely is another distinctive trait, as
group-think can become very dangerous in government. Schaben said private investments will fund new housing in the future, even though he does plan on working directly with communities to recruit developers. He also mentioned that because more people are moving to Story County and Ames, there is going to be more revenue for the county to provide more housing. Schaben brought up the importance of getting involved in local government, as well as vetting candidates. Because Iowa is a swing state, Schaben pointed out that there are many opportunities for students to meet candidates from the president on down due to their frequent Iowa

visits. “Reach out to the candidates if you have questions,” Schaben said. “As a candidate, we would love to have as many students involved as possible.” Echoing what other candidates for Story County supervisor have said, Schaben drove home that nothing affects people more than local government. The next Coffee with a Candidate event will take place from 7:30 a.m. to 8:30 a.m. Wednesday.

College Dems highlight goals of inclusiveness

Young Republicans see new future for party
By Robert.Roberson @iowastatedaily.com
By Danielle.Gehr @iowastatedaily.com
With roughly two weeks until Election Day, Iowa State College Democrats discussed their party’s goals, messages and how this fits into their roles at a university level. Zachary Rodgers, junior in political science and president of the Iowa State College Democrats; Taylor Blair, freshman in pre-industrial design and vice president of the organization; and Mara Kealey, junior in history and the organization’s treasurer; all work to spread messages of inclusion and equality throughout their organization. Rodgers, the main contact point for the group, helps coordinate organization events on campus. Because of his position, some representatives have come to talk to him. At one point, a national Democratic party bus tour event called him to help coordinate an event. Rodgers said people shouldn’t have to worry about not feeling included. He said the party tends to build on itself. Rodgers also said the Iowa State Democrats do a lot of work in coordination with the Story County Democrats. “We definitely take our cues from the national party … it continuously builds up from the county level, to the state level and then the national level,” Rodgers said in regard to how the party coordinates itself. In regard to local politics, Blair said he is not a fan of current Iowa Rep. Steve King or Sen. Chuck Grassley, both Republicans. Blair said that knocking off Grassley, however, will be a real challenge in Iowa because he is “an institution in Iowa.” “Just because someone’s been around a while doesn’t mean they’re effective,” Blair said. Kealey, who in her role as treasurer is in charge of how money is allocated for the Iowa State Democrats, said she hopes college-aged students would be informed
Leaders of the Republican Party, including Speaker of the House Paul Ryan, have left the party’s future somewhat unclear by choosing not to support or distance themselves from GOP candidate Donald Trump. For young Republicans on the Iowa State campus, however, they have an optimistic outlook on what the future holds, and they have a clear belief in what the party needs to move toward in order to sustain unity within their party and the country as a whole. “I see a generation of Republicans that did go out and caucus for John Kasich or Carly Fiorina or Rand Paul or Marco Rubio as a way of voicing their opinion for a new generation of leaders in the party,” said Logan Maxwell, executive director of the Iowa State College Republicans. Maxwell comes from a non-affiliated household but has been registered as a Republican since he first voted — a status he continues to maintain. “I think that one thing [that] needs to be said is that you really can’t assume how the party is going to go just because of this one election by one candidate or a series of candidates,” Maxwell said. “There is a whole generation of Republicans out there our age who might not [be] affiliated with these older people who are ahead of the party.” Maxwell sees a future for the party that is more philanthropic and more inclusive. He also feels that growth will come from focusing more on Republican voting on the state and local levels of government, as well as on a national level. Maxwell described many traditionally-liberal ideas that he would like the party to move toward. A large amount of young Republicans would like the party to move away from some of the social issues that have

Lecturer addresses the difficulties of weed management By Tristan.Wade @iowastatedaily.com It might not easily be recognizable, but weeds are a danger. The weeds in the backyard may not seem frightening, but in the worlds of agriculture and weed science, the adaptive characteristics of weeds have great implications. Marie Jasieniuk, plant biologist and professor at the University of California-Davis, lectured on the topic Tuesday during a visit to Iowa State, discussing how weed adaptations can be managed. While weeds have been evolving for as long as they have existed, Jasieniuk points to one adaptation that is important today. “Today’s most prominent weed adaptation is herbicide resistance,” Jasieniuk said. What does that mean? It means that in a population of weeds that are treated with a particular herbicide, merely one weed could have the proper adaptation to survive the treatment, and then live on to pass the resistant gene onto new weeds. This issue has been developing over a long period of time, so research has been done to investigate how to attempt to manage this adaptation. Jasieniuk said one of the first management techniques that was implemented was rotating and mixing the herbicides that were used, so the weeds were unable to adapt to one specific herbicide. At first, the strategy seemed effective in reducing herbicide resistance, but as time went on, “single weed species ... had resistance to multiple varieties of herbicide,” he said. “However you rotate or mix (herbicides), if they work in the short term to kill the plants, then they’re going to work in the long term to favor adaptations in weeds,” Jasieniuk said. What can be accomplished then to manage weed adaptations? Jasieniuk believes prevention has to move outside of herbicide solutions and look at nonchemical manners of combating weed adaptations.

Marie Jasieniuk speaks about the evolution of weed adaptations Tuesday.
Engineering graduate students listen to a presentation about the Trinect Fellowship’s plan to combine engineer graduate students and elementary education students for research activities.
Non-chemical management methods include grazing and crop rotation, the latter of the two having an effect in Iowa. “In Iowa, we usually have a two-year rotation between corn and soy beans and having more crop rotation will benefit weed control,” Ze Fang, graduate student in agronomy, said after listening to Jasieniuk’s lecture on weed management. Jasieniuk’s research in the plant biology field has helped shed light on some answers, but many of the answers remain unknown. Weeds will continue to adapt, and weed scientists will continue to keep pushing to figure out exactly how to stop them from doing so. “We always have to keep in mind that we’re managing an adaptation,” Jasieniuk said, stressing just how complex of a subject weed adaptation is. Jasieniuk also pushed the importance of not getting caught up in the singular thought of looking at herbicide resistance with tunnel vision. It is merely one type of weed adaptation, which is the main category, and weed evolution to various agricultural practices will always be a problem. “It is essential to consider the evolution of weed populations in the whole agro-ecosystem, at a much larger scale,” Jasieniuk said.
Trinect Fellowship program integrates STEM into the Des Moines Public School District By Haley.Knudsen @iowastatedaily.com Engineering graduate students and elementary school students are working together as part of the Trinect Fellowship program to enhance and integrate STEM concepts into the Des Moines Public School District. Adah Leshem, a member of the leadership team for the Trinect Fellowship, expained the program is a National Science Foundation funded project, and the objective of this NSF grant is to enhance teacher preparation, specifically elementary school teachers and in STEM,” Leshem; Raj Raman, professor of agricultural and biosystems engineering; Anne Estapa, assistant professor in the School of Education; and Joanne Olson, professor in the School of Education; lead the program. It is setup to create triads, a team of three that consists of the student teacher, the classroom teacher and the engineering student. Each week, the engineering fellow goes to the classroom to collaborate with a selected elementary school teacher to find ways to incorporate STEM into
their curriculum. “Trinect is a great program,” said Jennifer Lillo, program assistant with Trinect. “It’s in its third year and we’ve heard great stories from teachers that have had these fellows in their classroom.” Bharat Agrawal, a current fellow in the program, said working with kids is the best part of the job. “It’s the little things,” he said. “There is this one kid that gets very excited when he sees that I am in class. Most of these kids have never met an engineer before, and the schools that we go to usually aren’t the best schools in the state, so it’s a privilege to them to be interacting with us.” Many of the current fellows shared similar, positive experiences of their time in the classroom. “I’d say the relationships I’ve built with the kids and teachers is the thing I will cherish most,” said Umar Hamdeh. Kendra Allen shared her motivation for joining the program and why she has enjoyed it so much. “I really wanted to teach kids and go out of my way to do something that makes a difference,” Allen said. “It’s really encouraging for the students to hear that they can do it from someone other
than their teacher, to hear that they can pursue and achieve their dreams.” Matthew Fischels, a current fellow, enjoys helping students get excited about science and engineering most. “Children start to form ideas really young about engineering, so it’s important to avoid misconceptions, so when they grow up, they don’t turn their back on engineering,” Fischels said. Raman added, “There are a lot of misconceptions about engineers, like engineers work only on planes or cars or trains. Our goal was to present engineering principles and give some example of how [engineering] can be introduced into the K-5 classroom.” Raman also further explained the value of the program and their ability to measure, hypothesize and test how effective the program is, as well as ways to improve the overall experience. “[The Trinect Fellowship program] helps students get a firsthand view at the challenges that our public school teachers have because the people have no idea how difficult that job is,” he said. “I know for a fact that when the fellows are done, they know the challenges.”

p.m. on Mondays, Tuesdays, and Thursdays, according to the Mary Greeley website. The cost of the class with be $1,100, which includes tuition, the required textbook and workbook. Students will also be responsible for testing fees throughout the course. The goal of the EMT course is to help students gain skills in “patient assessment and examination, the recognition of signs and symptoms of illness and injury, and
proper procedures when rendering emergency medical care,” according to the website. Courses will be taught by Mary Greeley paramedic professionals. Students who properly complete the course will be able to test to earn certification as both a National Registry EMT and State of Iowa EMT. Successful completion of the course includes clinical experience with the Mary Greeley Mobile Intensive Care Services,
according to the website. The requirements include being 18 years old by March 3, 2017, being able to read, write and speak English and being certified in CPR. The CPR requirement can be completed on Nov. 30 if needed. Space is limited, as the class size will only be 20 students, and it is a firstcome first-serve basis, according to the website. Applications are due Nov. 1, and accepted students will be notified by Nov. 15.
the idea of the park is to show that the Ames community is inclusive to everyone. Some of the speakers were brought to tears over their emotions about the park. “I’m so excited to be able to play softball with my coworkers,” said Shelly Jasper, Ames resident. Jasper made her speech from her wheelchair to the council. While most of the residents who spoke were in favor of the park, some were not. “The community feels
it hasn’t received enough information,” said Martin Edelson, an Ames resident speaking on behalf of the Inis Grove Neighborhood Association. The city should have more information before it makes its decision, Edelson said, making a point not to criticize the idea of the park itself. “I think this issue has divided the city more than any other issue in years,” said Larry Ebbers, Ames resident. Six hundred people have signed a petition to stop the park from being located at
Inis Grove Park in Ames. The new park is projected to be finished by July 31, 2018. During the meeting, the council also passed a resolution approving a request for the Main Street Cultural District for a $3,000 local match for a National Register of Historic Places nomination application. The council also heard the 2016 resident satisfaction survey that had 50 percent Iowa State students and 50 percent non-students.

Abhijit Patwa asked the candidates what they thought about the lack of transparency among students, ISU administration and the Board of Regents — an issue Patwa and other student body leaders have raised concerns about. “The Board of Regents is supposed to be the buffer,” Wessel-Kroeschell said. “They’re supposed to be the group who keeps politics out of higher education. And from what we have seen recently, certainly that is not working.” Cooper said any funding for higher education should go directly to the student, not the university. “UNI, Iowa and Iowa State, they’re going to get the money no matter how they treat you,” Cooper said. “The best way to get transparency, the best way to get responsiveness is to attach any money we’re going to give to the individual student.
“You don’t like how the Board of Regents are treating you, you don’t like how the administration here is treating you? You go take your money and you go somewhere else. That’s the only way they’re ever going to be accountable to you — is if you have an out.” Childs-Smith said she wasn’t sure what the answer is to more transparency but agreed that changes are needed. “The students need to have some say so,” ChildsSmith said. “It’s your money, it’s your parents’ money, it’s the taxpayers’ money. We need to work on it and really explore the different options.” The forum was moderated by Benjamin Dirks, Student Government senior director of government affairs, and was the last installment of the Campaign 2016 Series, which provides the community with opportunities to question candidates before the election. “I think it’s very easy for us to get wrapped up in the presidential election cycle,” Dirks said, which has had its fair share of volatile moments. “I think far too often [local elections] are overlooked.”

FORUM p1 dwindle. “I will support [higher education] even in a fiscal crisis,” Wessel-Kroeschell said. “I think we need to remember that educating our students, educating our youth is one of the most important things that we do.” Childs-Smith said cutting waste is the key to providing a better funded education. “We’re so heavy on the administrative side,” Childs-Smith said. “We
have duplication of services between all the regent schools.” Childs-Smith said cutting certain administrators and the number of elective courses students are forced to take would cut down on the high price of tuition and keep the burden off of the tax payers. Cooper suggested decreasing state funding for higher education. “We’re making a working-class guy, who didn’t go to the university and has working-class kids who didn’t go to the university,

PLANEGATE ISU president’s aeronautic blunder was ripe for scandal By Alex.Felker @iowastatedaily.com
A
s a tuition-paying student, I feel an obligation to complain about how the university is run. In fact, I am sometimes upset by how little time there is in the day to do so. Could I but summon out of the void a few extra hours each evening I am sure I could make more of myself. President Steven Leath’s recent aeronautic blunder was just too low of a hanging fruit. The whole thing was ripe for scandal. It was begging, really, to be plucked and savored for at least a few weeks’ worth of editorials and “calls for investigation.” Personally, I think it would be a shame if some sort of formal public hearing did not come out of all this — I know I would go. I would assume that the pitchforks and rotten tomatoes would be supplied on site, but my faith in these sort of rational expectations has wavered of recent. It is unfortunate how slow to act the populace of today is. One remembers fondly the times when a witch could be accused, tried and then hanged all
within a space of a day or two; when we were not so mired by our own so-called “justice system.” An overvalued social construction if there ever was one. I should like a more comprehensive and permanent committee to be formed as well. One charged with the auditing of all of Leath’s travel arrangements. I would suggest that their first order of business be to create a full-time position (benefits included) tasked with the dogged and constant monitoring of Leath’s whereabouts, current and impending. He should not be able to pop over to Family Video without the board being informed, and a subsequent two-thirds majority vote in-sanction. That’s before being approved by the Student Government, obviously. I see no real reason, either, why this committee should limit itself to solely the pestering of Leath. I am sure that there is a plethora of other university officials who ought to be kept an eye on. Who really knows what they get up to. Unfortunately, I don’t get to make these kinds of decisions. One would think, however, that at least a temporary “task force” will be established. I’d hope that we’re at least as civilized as that. I wonder, though, if we are too forgiving of our public officers. They have an immensely important duty to do, and what kind of citizens would
we be were we not to criticize them every step of the way? It is our duty, I think, to make their lives as difficult as is possible. It’s the least we could do in exchange for them giving their entire careers to their constituency. Leath has done so much for Iowa State University. And, likewise, only a fool would give him the benefit of the doubt. Everybody makes mistakes, yes, but it would be silly to view them in light of circumstance. Intentions are meaningless, and misunderstandings simply do not exist. The world is colored in black and white — and, more importantly, if you see somebody reaching for the gray pencil, then you ought to let the authorities know. I am not making any sort of excuse for Leath’s actions. It seems likely he was too careless, or that there was some kind of error in judgement. What’s important, though, is that we do everything in our power to drag both his and the university’s name through the mud. That we do everything in our power to lessen his supply of political capital. That we do not simply allow the involved parties to live and learn, to accept the consequences and to move on. That we dwell, in short, upon all that went wrong and all that we might criticize. This, as anybody could see, is how to best deal with difficult situations like these.
Mental illness is not a Halloween costume By Haley.Brase @iowastatedaily.com Being able to dress up and go to haunted houses for Halloween can be fun and harmless when it isn’t at the expense of others. Some costumes and haunted houses make a joke out of mental health, sometimes by replicating insane asylums in a not-soflattering way and sometimes by doing much more. While this may all be in the spirit of fun, Halloweengoers must keep in mind that mental health is a major issue in people’s everyday lives. Although these festivities may be part of the holiday spirit, that doesn’t give those celebrating the right to mock the lives of others. You may be wearing a costume one night, but others who actually deal with mental illnesses do not simply wear that costume. About 40 percent of Americans will wear a costume for Halloween, and 30 percent will go to haunted houses on a yearly basis. You get to take off your costume at the end of the night, but if you’re dressed in a straight jacket, or you try to depict what a person who suffers from a mental illness is, keep in mind who you are representing. You do not know how it feels to be in their shoes, and if you do, you wouldn’t be walking around, making fun of them. I, at least, would hope not. Every year, 10 million people
in the United States experience some kind of mental illness that directly interferes with their daily lives, according to the National Alliance of Mental Illness. You have no idea what someone has gone through in their life to cause them to suffer from depression, anxiety, psychotic disorders, post-traumatic stress disorders and more. There are people who change their lifestyle as a whole just so they don’t break down because something “triggers” them. The question you should be asking yourself is: How would you feel if someone dressed up as what you think is your own personal flaw? You would feel ashamed. Do not make someone feel worse for a condition they cannot control. By witnessing the stigma behind mental illnesses, those suffering may choose to not find treatment. Adults in America who have a mental illness and don’t receive treatment tend to die 25 years earlier than others. It’s a simple fact that many citizens go to haunted houses to be scared for the thrill. Many don’t realize these events portray mental illnesses, yet they still manage to stigmatize mental illness, especially in young people. Half of chronic mental illnesses start at the age of 14, and three quarters start at the age of 24, according to the National Alliance of Mental Illness. Although this is a common
What does it mean to be a Cyclone? Homecoming. A time of celebration and festivities: a kickoff parade, food on campus, a pep rally, Campaniling and football. Iowa Staters — alumni, students, faculty, staff, Ames community members and future Cyclones — come together to celebrate their university. Even if you aren’t one to sport cardinal and gold head to toe and fist pump to the fight song, you can still spend the time celebrating what it means to be a member of this community. So what does it mean to be a Cyclone? It’s the Campanile, cherry pies, Lancelot and Elaine, Hilton Magic and the Zodiac, but there is so much more to celebrate. Choosing your adventure. Accepting your admission to Iowa State was the first step of entering the Iowa State family. Being a Cyclone means the opportunity to choose your path: your major, clubs, internships and other activities. Loyal. Being loyal means continuously striving to fulfill Iowa State’s mission to “create, share and apply knowledge to make Iowa and the world a better place.” Use your time, talents and resources to do this in your own unique way. Find your own way to give back to the community and make it better while acknowledging how you’ve contributed to the world outside of your life experience. Forever. Forever means being a Cyclone even once your time on campus is done. It means no matter how far you go from the university, your experience and time here will continue to impact you. Iowa State will always be a part of you, and you’ll always be a part of it in whatever way you made your mark here. True. Being true means always striving for your own personal truths. Find what you’re meant to do in life and do it. Take opportunities as they come and pursue your passions. Serving the most Iowans of regent universities, Iowa State fulfills its land grant mission to serve the state. It also harbors research, ideas and initiatives that reach far beyond Iowa’s borders. Homecoming is the time to celebrate all of these things, but it should also be a time to recognize our community by understanding where we’ve come from, what we’re doing now and where we’re going. In this unifying event, take the time to understand others who are part of the Iowa State community. Who are the alumni who helped shape your program? What are clubs, cultural organizations or other campus entities working on right now? Which buildings or places on campus haven’t you been to? Celebrate being a Cyclone by better understanding the community you’re a part of.

occurrence, haunted houses should not use mental illness as an attraction to create a popular venue. Some planning to go out on Halloween to attend the attraction could have or currently still suffer from a mental illness and could be affected by it. You may think, “Well, why would someone who knows they
have a mental illness go to these haunted houses?” The answer is simple: It is all too common for individuals to be unaware of their mental illness. It’s not right to make light of or to profit off of something that is a national concern. Halloween is supposed to be fun. Let’s not stigmatize people.

4 takeaways from Big 12 media day By Ryan.Young @iowastatedaily.com KANSAS CITY, Mo. — The Big 12 Conference hosted its annual Big 12 men’s basketball media day Tuesday in Kansas City, bringing in coaches and select players from each school in the league. Here are the four biggest takeaways from the event: New rule interpretations Curtis Shaw, the coordinator of Big 12 basketball officials, made his annual presentation Tuesday, detailing which changes the officials have made for the upcoming season — and there are several. The first change has to do with the restricted area. “If contact occurs in the restricted area, even though it’s initiated by the offense and the defensive player doesn’t leave his feet and go vertical, it will be a blocking foul if the shot’s missed,” Shaw said. “Now, if he makes the shot and the contact’s not severe, we’re going to probably play through it.” This, he said, is going to be a big change — and one that some fans may not like. “You’re going to have what seems like minimal contact that’s going to be a foul,” Shaw said. Another change he detailed had to do with double fouls in the post. “[It] used to be when you called a double foul, everybody said it was a bailout,” Shaw said. “But there are plays … when they [foul] simultaneously, [and that will be called] a double foul. Kansas coach Bill Self said Tuesday that the changes aren’t going to be as drastic as some may think.
West Virginia coach Bob Huggins talks to the media at the Big 12 men’s basketball media days Tuesday at the Sprint Center in Kansas City, Missouri.
“Well, I think that [Bob] Huggins has the most issues because they’re telling [West Virginia that] they can’t foul every possession like they always do,” Self said jokingly. “Now, will it be good for our game over time? I would say it probably will be. But initially, there’s going to be some heartache, and probably more so on big guys than anyone else.” Bill Self picks Iowa State to win the conference In the Big 12 Preseason Poll, voted on by the league’s coaches, Iowa State was picked to finish fourth. Kansas, West Virginia and Texas took the top three spots, respectively. The Cyclones, though, earned one first-place vote — the only other Big 12 school
to do so. The vote came from Kansas coach Bill Self, who picked the Cyclones to win the conference in the past two seasons. “You could pick West Virginia. You could pick Texas. You could pick other schools without questions,” Self said. “But the reason I did it that way was because they were the most known to me. Monte Morris is a known. Naz [Mitrou]-Long... is a known. Matt Thomas is a known. Burton, to me, is a known, even though he’s just been there one year. “You’ve got just as much quality depth as anyone.” Huggins not happy in second place In that same Big 12 poll, West Virginia was picked to finish second overall, coming
in only behind Kansas. But West Virginia coach Bob Huggins doesn’t like the placement. “All those guys lied. They lied,” Huggins said. “There isn’t one of those guys that don’t think they’re going to beat us. So why would they vote for a second if they think they’re going to beat us? I don’t believe them.” Huggins did praise Kansas though, not doubting its dominance one bit in recent years. But in order to dethrone the Jayhawks from atop the Big 12, Huggins said the answer was simple. “We’ve got to beat them at home,” he said. “People have to go into Allen Fieldhouse and win once in a while. Because the rest of us all lose at
home, and I think if you look at it, that’s without a question, the difference.” Coaches weigh in on Big 12 expansion Last week, the Big 12 announced that it would not expand the conference, ending speculation that the league would grow to either 12 or 14 teams. While this decision has drawn lots of criticism from around the country, Oklahoma State first-year coach Brad Underwood said he still believes in the Big 12 “I believe in our commissioner. I believe in our leadership wholeheartedly,” Underwood said. “Being very, very new to the conference, I’ll be honest, I’ve just kind of taken a backseat, so to speak. That may sound like
Ryan Young/Iowa State Daily
a cop-out, just because I’m not versed enough in all the things that are going on. “We don’t have to play second fiddle to anybody.” Baylor coach Scott Drew agreed. With 10 teams in the Big 12, it allows for a roundrobin style of play, allowing for teams to play the entire league twice. That eliminates any question of who truly wins the conference each year, he said. “There is no better feeling as a coach or as a team to be able to have a true champion,” Drew said. “You play everybody home and away, and at the end of the day, that’s equal. That’s fair. Not only is it great competition, but you have a proven winner.”

Senior Morgan Kuhrt tips the ball over the net during Iowa State’s volleyball match against Baylor on Oct. 19 at Hilton Coliseum. The Cyclones will have a chance to win consecutive conference matches Wednesday against Kansas State.
Volleyball has home advantage at Hilton By Sean.Sears @iowastatedaily.com Iowa State has a chance to win two conference games in row for the first time this season. The Cyclones are returning from an overall dominating match against in-conference foe TCU, sweeping the Horned Frogs. And with Kansas State travelling to Ames this Wednesday, the possibility of a two-game winning streak has never looked so likely. Since 2012, neither team has won a road match, as every win between the Wildcats and Cyclones has taken place on their own courts. So far, history is holding true, with Kansas State taking the first match in Manhattan, Kansas. “It’s really hard to play in their gym,” said senior Suzanne Horner. “It’s a
tough atmosphere to play in, they’ve got a lot of energy going for them.” The same could be said about the Cyclones’ home crowd at Hilton Coliseum. Cyclone fans always turn out for volleyball matches, but this match could be the most crucial one yet, as a win over the Wildcats would do more than just boost Iowa State’s conference win total. Kansas State will also present another test for Christy Johnson-Lynch’s 6-2 formation, which so far has been great against weaker teams such as Texas Tech, but was a nonfactor in last week’s loss to Baylor. And while part of the issue had to do with not using Iowa State’s strong middle blockers, the main issue has been serving. Even in the win against TCU, Iowa State had 14 service errors, and while it wasn’t an issue that time, it has been in previous
matches. Johnson-Lynch said her team has had a hard time finding the balance between staying competitive with each serve and being efficient. “You want to serve tough, but if you serve too tough, you end up making too many errors,” Johnson-Lynch said in her weekly press conference. “We just have to be more thoughtful of it and know when we’ve missed a few already.” To solidify their spot in the NCAA tournament, the Cyclones are in search of a winning streak to bolster their résumé. And if they plan on being in that tournament come December, wins against teams like Kansas State will go a long way in boosting their résumé. “Every match becomes critical at this point, so we’re looking forward to [Kansas State],” JohnsonLynch said.
By Brian.Mozey @iowastatedaily.com When defensive end J.D. Waggoner went down with a season-ending shoulder injury, defensive end JaQuan Bailey had to step up and take over. This week, he’s listed as No. 1 on the depth chart for the Leo position in front of redshirt senior Gabe Luna. The expectation from coach Matt Campbell and Jon Heacock was for Bailey to continue to grow, so he could learn for his sophomore year. They didn’t think he would grow this quickly and be a potential leader on the Iowa State defense for the next two or three years. “[Bailey] is getting better and better and improving all the time,” Heacock said. “There’s still learning he needs to do, but he’s taking strides to become better.” Heacock would not say Bailey is defined as a leader on the football team because he’s young and hasn’t been around the system long enough to be a true leader. Campbell agrees that he isn’t a leader but continues to say he could be a defensive leader in the coming years. Bailey is originally from Jacksonville, Florida, and made the trek to Iowa State with his brother, Joshua, to play football as
a Cyclone. As a true freshman, Bailey knew he was behind some big names in the Iowa State football program. Names like Demond Tucker, Mitchell Meyers, Pierre Aka, Luna and Waggoner. Campbell said Bailey was excited to learn from all of the veterans on defense but also had the drive to play on Saturdays during his freshman year. The first game of the this season, Bailey had the opportunity to play against Northern Iowa. He made two total tackles, with one being a four-yard sack. That started a spark for Bailey and the rest of the season. Bailey had a sack and four tackles against San Jose State and a half sack in the Texas game. So far this season, Bailey has recorded eight tackles and 2 1/2 sacks for a loss of seven total yards. Campbell sees this success continuing into the second half of the season. “JaQuan [Bailey] has that skill level at the defensive end position that we don’t have an abundance of because of two abilities,” Campbell said. “No. 1, stopping the run, and No. 2, rushing the passer and affect the passer in different ways.” Campbell continues to ask Bailey to do more things each week, and
Bailey continues to adapt to them in a fast manner. The improvements Bailey has made since becoming a Cyclone have partially come from the help of Mitchell Meyers. Meyers is trying to be a mentor for Bailey and lay a foundation and expectation of defensive linemen at Iowa State. The defensive line is stacked with a large amount of talent, which is a result of the linemen taking their position seriously and setting high expectations. Bailey is trying to live up to those expectations, and Meyers is trying to lead him by example. Meyers said Bailey is motivated in the weight room, on the practice field and on game day to become better than the day before. Meyers sees Bailey as a potential leader for the defensive line and possibly for the entire defense if he stays focused on the job at hand. He’s excited to have Bailey stepping up for the injured Waggoner and filing in his spot to the best of his ability. “I think being a young guy and playing this much is tough mentally, like learning the calls, learning what to do on specific plays,” Meyers said. “I know he’ll get there, and he’s doing a good job so far.”

Students prepare for spring Fashion Show By Abby.Patterson @iowastatedaily.com
Katy Klopfenstein/Iowa State Daily
Obsidian Onyx designed by Michaela Byers at the 2016 Iowa State Fashion Show on April 9 in Stephens Auditorium.
Each year, the Fashion Show puts on an extravagant production for a sold-out crowd of more than 2,500 people. Students, alumni, special guests and prominent fashion leaders flock to watch one of the largest student-run fashion shows in the nation that takes place in Stephens Auditorium each April. Producers Emilee Meyer, Maggie Anderson, Alexander Johnson and Hannah Nation received their positions almost immediately after last year’s show and received their opportunities to prepare for this year’s event. “The show happened April 9 last year, and we were chosen for our positions two weeks later,” said Anderson, the outreach producer for the Fashion Show and a senior in apparel, merchandising and design. “It’s an all-year-round process.” The Fashion Show is one of the largest student orga-
nizations on campus and has been running since 1982. The upcoming show will be the 35th production. In past shows, guest designers have been featured. The most notable of these guest designers have been Vineyard Vines and Todd Snyder, along with other notable alumni from Marc Jacobs and Target. Students can earn credits while participating in the Fashion Show in any way, shape or form. “We are more of a class than a club because of the fact that you do have to apply to be a part of the show and then you receive credit,” said Meyer, the outreach producer of the show and senior in apparel, merchandising and design. “Basically being involved with the show at all is class credit.” The Fashion Show team is currently going through 168 committee member applications, contacting guest designers for the show and starting to throw the new directors into their roles.

are often chosen based on enthusiasm, Meyers said. Though members are not required to have a lot of experience, they should still want to be a part of the show in any way possible. Models, however, are open to anyone possessing a simple, special talent. “[Models are chosen] pretty much based on if you can walk in heels,” said Johnson, senior in industrial engineering and the managerial producer of the show. “We are open to any body type: any size, shape, skin color.” The producers want students from all walks of life to participate in the Fashion Show. “A lot of people think you have to be in an ‘awesome’ [apparel, events and hospitality management] department or specifically an [apparel, merchandising and design] major to get involved with the Fashion Show,” said Nation, senior in event management and the managerial producer for the show. “You are able to be whatever ma-
jor and still have a big impact in the show.” The Fashion Show includes four producers, 37 directors, more than 120 different committee members, 100 student designers, 55 models, four guest judges and one guest designer. The Fashion Show provides a chance for students to build personal and professional relationships while attending the large event. “You are going to meet over 150 people you may not have met otherwise, as these are people you normally do not have classes with,” Nation said. “You are building relationships and connections with people in one of the largest student organizations on campus.” The Fashion Show will host modeling tryouts Nov. 9 and 10 for anyone interested in exploring their high-heel talents, while the garment submissions for talented designers will be in early February. The Fashion Show this year will take place on April 8, 2017.

REPUBLICANS p3 become a main agenda of the party in past years. While Maxwell did not share his initial choice during the early voting period, he did express disappointment for how both candidates have behaved during this election overall. As for those who openly support Trump on campus, there has been some disdain for the Republican Party stemming from the lack of support from the party’s leaders. Several members of Students for Trump have turned away from the party for that reason. “Some people like to criticize Republicans that support Trump because his policies aren’t necessarily Republican branded,” said Peircen Lorenz, member of Student for Trump and senior in technical communications. When asked about his thoughts, Maxwell felt that it should not be the responsibility of a party member to support the candidate. Lorenz was first drawn to Trump during the primary debates when he saw him speak out against lobbyists and special interest donors. Like other Trump supporters, Lorenz appreciated that Trump was like no other candidate he had ever seen before. On top of not aligning himself with either the right or the left, Lorenz also feels
PROHM p1 lot of different lineups and haven’t really played what people would think in the last few weeks — the four seniors and Merrill [Holden] or Darrell [Bowie]. I wanted to get back that competitiveness.” The biggest question mark for the Cyclones entering the season has been the final starting spot in the post — opposite of Deonte Burton. Through a few weeks of practices, Holden seems to have the inside track. Holden, Bowie and freshman Solomon Young have been locked in a battle for that starting spot since the beginning of practices this summer, but Young may be falling behind the others. Young’s size is his biggest asset — he stands at 6 foot 8 and 240 pounds — but his inexperience has
that the two-party system is not working. “I would sign myself onto a group that criticizes the twoparty politics,” Lorenz said. “Better of two evils is what I don’t want this continue being as a political structure. So when people say Trump isn’t a republican, he’s more of a right center, I would agree with them.” Maxwell disagrees, however, and believes a multi-party system would not work, making the two-party system a necessity. “I think the biggest thing for me is I want a candidate who speaks on national unity,” Maxwell said. “I want a candidate who talks like Abraham Lincoln when he said, ‘Four score and seven years ago.’ I want a candidate who talks like John F. Kennedy when he said, ‘Let’s not seek the Republican or the Democratic answer but the right answer.” One aspect that both Lorenz and Maxwell could agree on was the media’s role in the growing animosity between the parties. “The anger that is coming out is that people are being fed their fears, and that’s coming from the media,” Lorenz said. Maxwell feels that moving away from the 24-hour news cycles to more local, personalized news would end this hostility and hopes policy will move to the forefront again.
hurt him early on. Holden, a graduate transfer from Louisiana Tech, has a comparable size at 6 foot 8 and 224 pounds, but he already has college playing time under his belt, giving him a leg up. “You could say that [in a perfect world, Holden would start],” Prohm said. “He just gives us the best defensive presence down there. I think Bowie is [still ahead] too. Merrill is still big on ball screens, which I’m big on. We’ve been working on that a bit as well.” Prohm has also messed around with four-guard lineup. Monté Morris, Naz Mitrou-Long, Matt Thomas and Nick Weiler-Babb, a redshirt sophomore who has impressed the coaching staff early on, would make up the backcourt. Burton — normally a forward — would move to the

DEMOCRATS p3 about politics. She also said she doesn’t understand why Vermont Sen. Bernie Sanders’ supporters would want to vote for Libertarian presidential candidate Gary Johnson. She said she believes that it is important to vote for Democratic presidential candidate Hillary Clinton because she believes some communities have become marginalized. “At the end of the day … the vote that really matters are for people who have been marginalized, minorities center position. The small ball style of play certainly has its advantages — like the versatility on defense and the highscoring potential — but it also has its disadvantages. A struggle of Iowa State teams of the past has been rebounding and size. If Prohm decides to use the four-guard lineup, that leaves Burton as the only big man on the court. Even though Burton is 6 foot 4, he would still be undersized against the majority of Big 12 centers. But Burton doesn’t believe that will be a problem. He said Mitrou-Long, Thomas and Morris can more than make up for the size deficit on the glass. “We have a lot of players that can rebound,” Burton said. “The load of rebound won’t be on me. It will be more of a team rebounding.”
and LGBTQ+ community,” Kealey said. On the Republican presidential candidate Donald Trump, Rodgers, Kealey and Blair said that while they do not like him, they commend him for his ability to increase interest in politics and change the game as an outsider. Kealey said he believes that this explains a lot about the political system and the possible problems it’s currently facing. Rodgers addressed that while Trump has managed to get people, Sanders managed to do the same with what he believes is a much more peaceful message. Blair added that he feels Trump’s
Prohm also said a small ball lineup can remain stagnant — dribbling the ball longer than he would like. At least, that’s been the problem with the small lineups he’s run in the past. “You can’t move the ball enough,” Prohm said. “That’s the biggest thing we’ve been preaching — making sure to pass the ball and move it around.” The experimental lineup changes have benefited Iowa State in other ways as well. Morris said going against other types of players in practice has helped him improve all aspects of his game. “Getting a chance to compete with other people and other matchups is good,” Morris said. “I look
ability to manipulate the media, however, is like no one else before him. On Clinton’s recent controversies, particularly the recent WikiLeaks, the group believed the topic has diverted attention away from what the election should be about. Rodgers said there are more important issues to be concerned with. Ultimately Rodgers, Blair and Kealey all had messages of inclusion and acceptance. Their general perception, however, is that more Americans will eventually begin to embrace the Democratic party.
forward [to the different lineups], and I’m glad he’s doing it.” After averaging 38 minutes per game last season, which ranked third in the Big 12, Morris is set to see his minutes drop. Incoming transfer Donovan Jackson will take some load off of Morris’ shoulders this season and could see time in that small ball lineup. Jackson’s role will fall into more a sixth man when the lineup is more traditional, but he certainly has impressed through the first few weeks of practices. “There was a little learning curve from the beginning until now, but I see the progression from him,” Morris said. “He shoots the heck out of the ball. I think
the biggest thing for him is all upper body. He’s just got to make that adjustment.” Iowa State will play Nebraska on Sunday in a scrimmage, Prohm said. While he has been mixing and matching his lineups in practice, he said he is going to find a more consistent plan going into scrimmages and exhibition games. The team’s first exhibition game is Nov. 6 against Sioux Falls. “We’ll probably go with what we normally would,” Prohm said. “I’m not going to put out there who we’re going to start, but we probably have a good idea. You know, the four seniors, and Merrill has put himself in a good position.”
