ISU students and the Ames community can test their bravery while being philanthropic at Lambda Chi Alpha’s annual Gorevile Manor haunted house from 7 p.m. to midnight Thursday through Saturday at 203 Ash Ave. Tickets will be sold at the door for $5 and all proceeds go to ChildServe, a convalescent home that helps families with disabled children in Johnston. “The Gorevile project was created in the late ‘70s and was originally set up in a church gym with hanging sheets. Since then, it has relocated to our actual house featuring a working drawbridge, moat, gallows and five skit rooms every year,” said Brad Drennan, co-chairman of the philanthropy and junior in history. “Also, every hour on the hour, we have a mock witch hanging.” The construction of Gorevile Manor is time consuming but significant, said Nick Studer, co-chairman and junior in interdisciplinary studies and psychology. “Each room is generally headed by one person that has an idea of what they would want to use to creep out or scare people; this year I had been brainstorming ideas for the maze two weeks prior

By Katelynn McCollough Daily staff writer Carolyn Cutrona is one of five finalists for the dean of the College of Liberal Arts and Sciences, and she will make a presentation and answer questions at an open forum Thursday. Cutrona received her bachelor’s degree in English from Stanford University in 1973. She continued on to get her master’s in counseling and guidance in 1974 from the University of New Mexico and her Ph.D. from the University of California in clinical psychology in 1981. In 1992, Cutrona began her career at Iowa State as a professor in the department of psychology. She is currently the chairwoman of the department of psychology, as well as the director of the Institute for Social and Behavioral Research, a position she has been in since 2003. At Iowa State, Cutrona has focused her research interest on coping with stress, social support, close relationships, health psychology and marital relationships. Cutrona will speak at an open forum Thursday. The forum will begin at 3:30 p.m. in 1951 Food Sciences. Students, faculty and staff are encouraged to attend and ask questions. One dean finalist, Albert Boggess, was on campus earlier this week. The other three finalists will present next week, each with a separate open forum.

to building and then started heading up a small skit room incorporating the boiler room,” Studer said. “This will be a surprise for the people going through.” Besides the shrieks and squeals, Gorevile Manor hopes to raise funds and awareness for a commendable cause. In the 1980s the fraternity started fundraising for ChildServe. “To date, we have raised over $99,000. This year we are hoping to break the $100,000 milestone,” said Sean Van Osdale, president of Lambda Chi Alpha fraternity. “The money that we raise buys wheelchairs, funds events, supports physical therapy sessions and takes care of the children’s specific needs. This allows them to not worry about struggling to overcome something; rather it lets them have that covered so they can focus on what’s really important — being a kid.” The event also give members of the fraternity a deeper idea of what children at ChildServe go through. Drennen said, “An element of the partnership [with ChildServe] includes us making a trip to Johnston to participate in their ‘Welcome to our World’ program where the guys get a feel for what it is like to have a disability of sorts, and how it affects a person’s everyday routine.” “This leads into the building phase of Gorevile and gives us the motivation to turn our house into a castle

Dorsett presents programs to GSB Welch bars drink pink for cancer

By Charles.O’Brien @iowastatedaily.com James Dorsett, head of the International Students and Scholars Office and interim dean of students, spoke to the Government of the Student Body at its meeting Wednesday night. Dorsett spoke mostly about international students and the challenges they face. “International students coming to Iowa State have a variety of issues they have to deal with,” he said. “The three main problems they face are cultural stress, academic stress and immigration regulations and requirements.” To help counter these problems, the office has set up a student services program to help international students adapt to life in the U.S. “We help international students learn how to buy a car, lease an apartment, adjust to the cold and teach them how to write American-styled papers,” Dorsett said.

Besides teaching international students how to adapt to living at Iowa State, the offices offers students a welcoming environment and immigration policy advising. “In the last three years, we have

had a record numbers of international students here at Iowa State,” Dorsett said. “Currently there are 3,424 international students at Iowa State and the majority of them are from China.”

Colleges Against Cancer and Welch Avenue bars are partnering to raise awareness that there is hope in the battle against cancer by hosting the Drink Pink Bar Crawl on Thursday. Proceeds raised by Colleges Against Cancer go to the American Cancer Society to find a cure. “The idea for Drink Pink Mug Night actually fell into my lap through friends and contacts I had made last year as I fundraised like crazy in honor of my mom’s 10th year cancer-free,” said Jill Wedeking, team recruitment co-chairwoman for Colleges Against Cancer and senior in dietetics. “I got a call one night from a friend who manages Cy’s Roost, Melvin Evans Jr.,

PETA lawsuit alleges SeaWorld enslaves killer whales Can killer whales sue SeaWorld for enslavement? A lawsuit filed Wednesday by People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals and other “next friends” of five SeaWorld killer whales takes that novel legal approach. The 20-page complaint asks the U.S. District Court in Southern California to declare that the five whales — Tilikum, Katina, Corky, Kasatka, and Ulises — are being held in slavery or involuntary servitude in violation of the 13th Amendment.

A PETA statement said the lawsuit is the first in contending that constitutional protections against slavery are not limited to humans. A SeaWorld statement called the lawsuit a baseless publicity stunt by PETA, which is known for provocative ads and public demonstrations on behalf of animal rights.

People magazine reported that the Aerosmith frontman suffered facial injuries from the fall, and that 63-year-old Tyler lost two teeth in the accident.

Chandra Peterson, co-president of Green Umbrella, said the National Campus Sustainability Day Fair was significant for student clubs because many are so small they rarely get the opportunity to advertise what they do. Students representing International Week, for example, are hosting a campus cleanup on Nov. 6, but all students are invited to participate, regardless of their background. Also, the WeCar program, a new rideshare program for Iowa State, allows students to rent a car rather than bring one to campus, decreasing the amount of emissions put into the air. By visiting the sustainability fair, students also were able to see what their peers were doing to better the environment. The student club ActivUs is currently petitioning two movements. The first is “Beyond Coal,” a movement to use other forms of energy to power campus, and the second is “Beyond Plastic,” an effort to encourage Iowa State to stop selling plastic bottles. When asked why students should be interested in these movements, ActivUs president Emily Kathrein

Battle’s Bar-B-Q, on Welch Avenue, is very passionate about keeping the environment healthy. “We care about our community first and foremost,” said shift manager Ayisha Al-Hassan. Battle’s Bar-B-Q uses local wood in its stove, recycles its grease, composts waste and cleans up litter in the areas surrounding the restaurant, among other practices. Local cafes, such as Arcadia, also are being sustainable. Arcadia practices sustainability is by using trees that had fallen in Ames 35 years ago to make its countertop. This cafe also used refurbished tables and chairs when furnishing the establishment. Wheatsfield, a local grocery store, uses a rain barrel and LED lighting in its coolers in addition to selling local and organic foods. “You don’t have to move the world to be sustainable,” Peterson said. “It’s the little things.” The student organizations and local businesses that participated in National Campus Sustainability Day showed that, even by just coming together to clean up campus or recycling business materials, sustainability can be practiced every day.

This year, we’re aiming for over $106,000, so mug night is helping us to achieve this goal.” The Drink Pink Bar Crawl allows college students to take a stand against cancer and work toward getting rid of the deadly disease.

“Most events hit a concentrated group of people who care about the cause, but this will be bringing it to a social setting to be a constant reminder of how we need to be proactive to find a cure. I am beyond excited to be a part of such a powerful and beneficial event,” said Jessica Strandemo, senior in marketing and management.

Editorial

Obama’s birthplace unimportant We know we speak often of Texas Gov. Rick Perry. We know those evaluations are seldom, if ever, positive. The truth is, if it weren’t for the things he says with shocking regularity, we wouldn’t have such a fine foil for talking about important issues. His most recent comments of controversy, that he doesn’t have a definitive answer to President Barack Obama’s place of birth, provide us with that foil yet again. To his credit and our reassurance, Perry clarified his comments, saying of Obama’s birthplace that “It doesn’t matter. He’s the president of the United States. He’s elected. It’s a distractive issue.” This time, Perry is hitting the nail on the head with a respectable quantity of pragmatism. Obama won the 2008 election with 9.5 million more votes than Sen. John McCain, R-Ariz. He carried 28 states to McCain’s 22, and won with the support of more than two-thirds of the Electoral College. Constitutional issues are very important, but absent proof that he was born outside the United States, what is clearly the will of such a high proportion of the electorate and the rest of our political system should win out. We remember the short presidential campaign of Donald Trump, who often focused on his doubts about Obama’s birth in Honolulu. Those claims were the source of most of the attention he garnered. How many of you remember Trump having an actual idea of his own that wasn’t stated in broad, generalized terms? Talking about constitutional issues, which are matters for the judicial courts to decide once cases reach them, only dims the lights that illuminate policy issues that actually affect people. Meanwhile, as fringe Republicans worked to undermine a duly elected president’s constitutional legitimacy, Obama at least attempted to put forth ideas about the direction policy should take during his time in office. To his credit, he ignored discourse that had no bearing on the political measures he proposed and worked toward solutions that would protect the environment in which we all live, deliver a minimum standard of care to the sick, preserve the stability of our financial institutions, and put Americans back to work. This is America, and people are innocent until proven guilty, right? Unless someone comes forth with contrary documentation, then we should take our president — the highest officer of our republic — at his word. But maybe journalists should continue asking candidates the question: Where was Obama born? The answers to questions like these show the candidates’ priorities and how much they buy into irrelevant conspiracy theories. Editorial Board

Take time to explore US Before traveling abroad, tour states in our country

s my last year at Iowa State progresses, I have been feeling disappointed that I never got the chance to study abroad because my classmates are discussing their adventures. Coming in to Iowa State, studying abroad was one of the top things on my list of things to do while “enjoying my adventure at Iowa State.” But simply put, it just never happened. Jobs, classes, money and time all just got in the way, as they usually do. However, in talking with these classmates and hearing about their glamorous trips to Italy, Spain, England and France, I realized another thing: Most of these people have barely even seen the United States before they left it. I grew up going on annual camping trips with my family and I’ve visited about 25 states on them. My high heels might mislead you, but I’ve donned my boots and seen views only possible after miles of hiking in the heat, up mountains, along cliffs and through trees. Considering the area I’ve covered is bigger than Europe, I’ve learned a few things along the way. The only thing worse than the Nebraska

By Jessica.Bruning @iowastatedaily.com Huskers is driving through Nebraska. When it costs you $5 to shower, washing your hair under an ice cold mountain water faucet isn’t all that bad. Green Powerade is better than the finest wine after hiking in 110-degree weather. People in the old days had dirty minds too. Want to take a guess at what the Grand Teton mountains are named after? I’ll give you a hint: Certain parts of a woman’s body have been compared to mountains at various points throughout the history of mankind. Defying laws in science in as simple of a way as being in four places at once at the four corners of Colorado, Arizona, New Mexico and Utah is strangely liberating. The view from Delicate Arch at 9 a.m. is impossible to describe. A 90-degree and humid day in Iowa is way

worse than the dry, 110-degree days of Utah. Learning how to build a campfire in the mountains comes in handy when building one in the backyard too. When drop toilets are the only available option, it is possible to hold it. Instant mashed potatoes are heaven after setting up a camper in the pouring rain. Waking up to bear prints on your car when you were sleeping in a tent a few feet away is just the jolt of excitement you need to start the morning. And the list goes on. I’ve traveled across the U.S. with my parents, brother and sister, aunt, uncle, cousins and grandparents. We’ve fought and laughed and I’m thankful for the experience. I’d still love to get the chance to travel abroad and I hope to do it a lot. But for now, I can be happy with the experiences I’ve had and would encourage you to explore your own country before you can truly appreciate the rest of the world.

Society

Education key to solving issues

ere in America we seem to be awfully conservative. Not in the sense a Republican claims to be, but in regards to how our society operates. We cower in fear at the hint of nudity and the expression of human beauty on TV, and we balk at the mention of weapons and drugs in music. The worst thing about the whole topic of censorship in this quasi-Victorian age we seem to live in is that we are making problems worse. Important issues, dealing with more than song lyrics or TV content, which we face, are institutionally ignored to the detriment of our youth. Take sex ed. Most parents don’t like the idea of their children running around, acting promiscuously, before they’re ready. I understand. But isn’t the problem that they aren’t appropriately educated by the time they start doing so? Hormones, which generally drive sexual urges, don’t wait for the teen to be completely aware of sex’s multiple consequences. So why is it a big deal for kids to be educated correctly about it? According to the Guttmacher Institute, only 21 states currently mandate sex ed. How it is done varies largely from state to state and district to district. According to the Kaiser Family Foundation, 34 percent of secondary school principals in 2002 described the sexual education classes taught in their school as abstinence-only. It seems as though many people think that talking about sex and educating on the topic of safe sex will make it more likely for students to engage in sexual activities. Thus, they try to ignore the issue completely. For the students in those schools, the hormonal urges are the same. They

By Craig.Long @iowastatedaily.com sat through a course that tried to vilify pre-marital sex, making it taboo. It makes sex dangerous. It makes sex, well, sexy. And worst of all, it makes them ignorant of the consequences of sex and ways to engage in sexual activity safely. It absolutely slaughters these teens’ ability to make an informed decision for themselves, forcing them to rely on faulty information from peers and urban legends about sex (how to prevent pregnancy or STIs).They take that information as fact until they prove it wrong themselves. If the topic were discussed fully, openly and without stigma, perhaps they would still fornicate. The hormones wouldn’t change. But the ways in which they choose to act may change, resulting in fewer teen pregnancies and STIs that could easily be prevented. The same goes for alcohol. When underage drinkers consume alcohol, they are more likely than adults to drink heavily (according to a Department of Justice study done in 2002). By making drinking taboo, you drive it into cornfields where everyone is pressured to overconsume. These kids may then routinely drive home to meet curfew. In Iowa, that means county roads filled with deer and covered in gravel. It is a situation designed to end in tragedy, all because of the irrational fear we have of alcohol even in controlled environments

in the home. If a teen is taught how to drink safely, and it isn’t something taboo, they’re less likely to make dangerous decisions on their own. They’re less likely to drink and drive if they know how alcohol really affects them, and they are more likely to understand where their limits are without risking severe alcohol poisoning. Drugs are a different type of beast than alcohol, though. I don’t advocate that parents teach their children how to do cocaine safely at home, nor should they be taught the best place to inject heroin. But education is still of the utmost importance. Drugs are increasingly available to teens. By not acknowledging that they exist, the potential for devastating activities motivated by curiosity is high. Acknowledging they exist, expounding their dangers and actively engaging youth about them, are the best ways to head off any curiosity. Fortunately, in my experience, hard drugs aren’t such a problem with most youth — yet. But we must absolutely prevent them from going down

the same path that sex and alcohol have gone, lest the problem grow. If teens know as much about the side effects of drugs as they do their intended effects (which they’ll hear from whoever introduces them, I’m sure), they are armed with what it takes to make the right decisions. If we, as a society, begin to acknowledge these issues as pertinent, they will begin to be fixed. By ignoring them, pretending they don’t exist or taking a hard-line stance on them, you simply feed ignorance and adrenaline. We must be proactive if we wish to control these issues and induce safer activities in younger generations. Our biggest weapon as a society is education and we simply ignore it, afraid that knowledge will corrupt these people — the same people on whom we impress the value of education and the importance of knowledge in the real world.

NCAA:

Division poised to address, act on changes INDIANAPOLIS — The NCAA is putting reform on the fast track. Money to address complaints that scholarships don’t cover the full cost of attendance? Check. Multi-year scholarships? Check. Changes in summer basketball recruiting and postseason bans for poor classroom performance? Check. All four issues are on the agenda of the NCAA’s Division I board of directors, which is meeting Thursday and is expected to act quickly. “I fully expect that when you’re making as big of changes as we are, that you’ll need some fine-tuning and adjustments,” NCAA President Mark Emmert said. “But in the past, not getting the fine-tuning right has slowed down the process, and I and the board are committed to moving things along aggressively.” Since taking office a little more than a year ago, Emmert has presided over one of the most tumultuous years in NCAA history. Scandals have rocked programs from Boise State to Miami. The reigning national champions in football (Auburn) and men’s basketball (Connecticut) were both investigated by the NCAA, and there have been questions about agents, parents, academic misconduct, improper benefits and even prostitution. The revolving door of conference realignment is still spinning wildly, and the Justice Department is even asking about scholarship rules. The Associated Press

Big 12:

West Virginia move not yet a done deal The Big 12 is still deciding: West Virginia or Louisville? Could be one or the other, or maybe neither. Conference realignment took a strange turn Wednesday when, a day after it appeared that the Big 12 had decided West Virginia would eventually replace Missouri as the league’s 10th member, the Mountaineers’ Big East rival Louisville re-entered the picture. The result was conflicting stories about what happened and a U.S. senator threatening an investigation — while the Big East was left to wonder not only if it had to replace another member, but which one. A person with knowledge of the Big 12’s discussions told The Associated Press that no decision was made by the conference to add West Virginia, and that Louisville is still a candidate to be invited to join. The person spoke Wednesday on condition of anonymity because the Big 12’s internal discussions are being conducted privately. The person added that a decision about expansion is not expected before next week. On Tuesday, West Virginia to the Big 12 seemed to be certain after the Big 12 board of directors met the night before. But the person with knowledge of the talks said “no real decision was made on Monday” and the Big 12 is not committed to any school. The Associated Press

Cyclones sweep Jayhawks Iowa State registers 10.5 blocks in win By Zach.Gourley @iowastatedaily.com The ISU volleyball team beat the Kansas Jayhawks in a 3-0 sweep (2515, 25-16, 25-11) on Wednesday night behind one of their best serving performances of the year. No. 14 Iowa State (17-3, 8-1 Big 12)

tallied 10 aces on the night and caused the Kansas (13-9, 1-8) offense to struggle to get momentum on its side. “I felt like we really served tough and we really broke them down serveand pass-wise, and it’s really hard to get going when you struggling passing,” said ISU coach Christy JohnsonLynch. “I felt like we kept them out of their rhythm.” It was Iowa State’s second victory over Kansas this season, but the Cyclones won by a much wider

margin the second time around, due partly to a struggling Jayhawk offense. “We knew if they got going offensively, they were going to be hard to stop, so we wanted to take them out of it with a tough serve and we definitely did that,” said middle blocker Jamie Straube, who had four aces in the match. “Their setter was running all over the place and their hitters didn’t get to take their best shots.” The Jayhawks were led offen-

Volleyball

By Dan.Tracy @iowastatedaily.com After meeting last Friday to discuss fan submissions for a new Cy-Hawk football game trophy, the Iowa Corn Growers Association has begun developing drawings of the top trophy submissions that they plan to have available for fans to vote on this spring. Iowa Corn received almost 500 submissions for the new trophy that will be awarded to the winner of the annual CyHawk football game between Iowa and Iowa State, said Mindy Williamson, Iowa Corn director of communications and public relations. A new trophy is needed to replace the trophy that was revealed this past August but lasted only four days after outcry from fans prompted Iowa Corn to announce plans for a new trophy for 2012. Before fans will have the final decision on the trophy’s design, a committee, which will include among others former Iowa and ISU football players, will narrow down the top submissions. “What has to take place in our time line is that first someone has to make a rendering of the top ideas and then our committee of former athletes, members of each athletic department and corn growers will narrow those ideas down to what the fans will then vote on as the new trophy,” Williamson said. Williamson said the number of ideas that will be rendered and the final number of ideas that will be voted upon have yet to be decided and no former athletes have been contacted at this point about being a member on the committee. Williamson mentioned a few trophy ideas among the 500 submissions that were discussed at Friday’s meeting. They include a trophy featuring stadium namesakes Nile Kinnick and Jack Trice, the

school mascots Cy and Herky, a corn belt resembling a professional wrestling belt and a football resembling an ear of corn. As for the trophy that was revealed in August, Iowa Corn has received numerous offers from a variety of entities including charities, schools, car dealerships and insurance companies. “There are a lot of ideas, not as many as trophy submissions, but we haven’t decided on where it’s home will be,” Williamson said. Trophies for both the men’s and women’s basketball games were also discussed Friday, but any decision would be for the 2012-13 basketball season at the earliest. “We’ll probably go through the same process as the football trophy,” Williamson said. Aside from men’s and women’s basketball and wres-

tling — which will debut the Dan Gable trophy this season — trophies for the other six sports and the academic competition that the two schools compete in have not yet been discussed. Williamson noted that Iowa Corn will be doing its utmost to promote the smaller market sports such as gymnastics, swimming and softball and the academic portion of the Cy-Hawk series. The next meeting between Iowa Corn, Learfield Sports and representatives of the universities has not yet been set, but Williamson said they are hoping the renderings of the trophies will be completed this fall. When voting becomes available, fans will be able to vote on www.cyhawkseries. com, which also has the updated series score.

Iowa State keeps sights set on Kansas Team gets ‘creative’ in practice in preparation for No. 9 Texas By Dean.Berhow-Goll @iowastatedaily.com Not looking past an opponent is something every coach preaches. The Cyclones made sure not to overlook Kansas on their way to playing Texas on Friday night. No. 14 Iowa State (17-3 8-1 Big 12) swept the Jayhawks (13-9 1-8) last night at Hilton Coliseum (25-15, Johnson-Lynch 25-16, 25-11). Kansas’ only lead of the game was in set two when it led 1-0. “I think that’s what we wanted to see,” said coach Christy Johnson-Lynch. “I felt like we broke them down serve- and pass-wise, and it’s really hard to get going if you’re struggling passing.”

File photo: Manfred Brugger/Iowa State Daily Iowa State’s Tiana Wollen competes in the 100-yard freestyle event on Oct. 23, 2010. Wollen is a walk-on who is now a team captain.

Captain manages time By Travis.Cammon @iowastatedaily.com Tiana Wollen is a captain for the ISU swimming and diving team, a walk-on member of the team and an excellent student as well. A junior, majoring in chemical engineering, Wollen finds a way to manage both athletics and school. “It’s mainly just about time management.” Wollen said. “Being in a sport helps you realize that you need to get things done on time since [sports] take up more than 20 hours a week.” A native of Bloomington, Minn., Wollen competed for Jefferson High School. It was in high school that she made it

to the Minnesota state championships, where she finished 28th, 21st, and 25th in her events. Wollen even broke her school’s 100-butterfly record. “I couldn’t imagine myself not swimming” Wollen said. “I knew I could do a lot better than how I ended my high school season.” Wollen and two other women were given a two-week trial to join the ISU swimming and diving team to see if the coaching staff thought they had enough potential to become a member of the team. “My club coach knows coach [Duane] Sorenson and knew it would be a good program to work with [me],” Wollen said. “We’ve had girls come here before and they’ve improved as well.”

Wollen was the only one chosen of the three. “Her club coach said she could really improve here,” Sorenson said. “She just really stood out with her work ethic and desire to make the team.” In her time here, Wollen has had a chance to make her presence known as a Cyclone swimmer. “Tiana is a really good friend,” said teammate and friend Brianna Carlberg. “She works really hard and pushes everyone in and out of the pool.” Wollen hopes to have a strong year for the Cyclones, competing in the 200 medley, 400 medley, 100 fly and 200 fly. “The team is great,” Wollen said. “I love the girls on the team and I just couldn’t ask for anything more.”

solo block and three block assists on the night. Middle blocker Tenisha Matlock and setter Alison Landwehr led the Cyclones with four block assists each, a career high for Landwehr. Jenson, who had two block assists on the night said their block is a work in progress. “At the beginning of the year, we should have been a better blocking team and we just kept working on it and it shows,” Jenson said. Wednesday was just the second time all season the Cyclones had no player in double figures in kills, with Jenson leading the attack with eight kills on a .227 hitting percentage. “We’re working on not always bailing out to our outsides and involving out middles as much as we can,” Johnson-Lynch said. “It didn’t always work to perfection tonight, sometimes you saw a little misstiming by the middle and the setter..” Numbers would suggest that the balanced attack worked, as the Cyclones hit at a .315 clip on the night and had four different players hitting .667 or better. The Cyclones will be back in action this Friday to take on No. 9 Texas in Austin at 8 p.m.

Competition remains fierce

By Shagun.Pradhan @iowastatedaily.com The words “win” and “whine” are separated by only two letters, but they complement each other so well when it comes to competing. Competition is fierce in the world, but in the ISU greek community, it’s everything. “Winners get the right to boast and brag about getting a shirt,” said junior Lindsey Lamair, member of Delta Delta Delta sorority. “And too often the people that lost whine and pout.” In the greek community, making a name for the house is a way of showing the campus and new recruits which is the more “prominent” house. There are other factors besides sports, though, such as grades, community service,

>>VOLLEYBALL.p5 Throughout, the Cyclones completely controlled the match, having more kills, assists, aces, digs and blocks than the Jayhawks. On the offensive end, Iowa State kept up its balanced attack. Even with the Cyclones recording the lowest amount of kills this year, JohnsonLynch was pleased with the performance. “We’ve been working on some things this week,” Johnson-Lynch said. “We’ve been trying to be just a little bit more creative by moving some people around, so that was good to see.” On the attack, no player went into double-digit kills and 10 Cyclones recorded at least one kill. Four players hit on at least a .667 clip and two hit .750. Tenisha Matlock and Kelsey Petersen hit .667 and had most of their kills come from quick sets in the middle and on the back side. Coming off of the bench, senior Debbie Stadick and sophomore Hannah Johnson were inserted into the lineup and delivered in a big way. Both Cyclones hit .750 and recorded a block assist each. “We had some people come off the bench and I thought they did a terrific job,” Johnson-Lynch said. “Debbie

and individual members. However, winning the intramural champion T-shirt just adds bonus points. “I think it shows chemistry, work ethic and involvement with each other in the house,” said senior Lauren Grogan. Both Grogan and Lamair were on the same swim team that won the freestyle relay. Lamair also went on to win the 50-freestyle, medley-relay and 200-free relay her freshman year.

has been tremendous this season, I can’t say enough about how s u p p o r t i ve she’s been. Petersen “She is ready to go, so the great thing is if anyone struggles, she’s ready to go. If we have an injury, I have Matlock no worries putting Deb Stadick in because she’s ready to go.” On Friday, the Cyclones will head Straube to Austin, Texas, to face No. 9 Texas for the second time this year. Last time, the Cyclones lost a heartbreaking five-set loss at Hilton. The entire team has been waiting to get back to Texas, but they knew they kept reminding each other not to overlook the Jayhawks. “Sometime when we have a big match coming up like on Friday, it’s easy to look ahead,” said Jamie Straube. “Everyone was saying ‘Kansas first,’ so I thought we did a really good job just focusing on them tonight.”

Telling a ‘tale as old as time’ By Alex Smith Ames247 Writer

A classic love story never gets old. The captivating tale of looking past the outer image to see someone lovable is the “Beauty and the Beast” story we all grew up with. Now it is coming to Stephens Auditorium for us to watch all over again. “Looking past the cover of the book, looking past someone’s outward appearance to see inside really spoke to me,” said Julia Louise Hosack, who plays Mrs. Potts. It is the same adventure and the same theme as the Disney movie, but

with more magic. There are added songs such as “Human Again,” which wasn’t originally in the movie but was added to the re-release, and many more that are new. “The main characters get solos you don’t get in the movie.” said Michael Haller, who plays the part of Lumiere. This live version of an old story helps to connect with the characters like never before. Haller regards it as “an enhanced version of the film.” This particular show has won a Tony Award for best costumes, making it visually interesting as well. Haller revealed that he has control of the flames on his costume of the candlestick. This

gives an occasional laugh or glimpse of emotion. Like in the movie, there are background characters that add a certain flare to the story. Hosack said there are moving gargoyles to help move set along with forks, spoons, knives, napkins and all the other characters seen in the movie to add to the life on the stage. “It’s really enriching to see how the ensemble works,” Haller said. The minor characters work as individual storytellers making their own story each night. Although this may be something that is looked at as a children’s story,

who doesn’t love to act like a kid again? “I don’t think a college audience will get any less than a largely family-based audience,” Haller said. “If you think it’s cool to see the Beast transform in the movie, you should see our Beast transform on stage,” Hosack said. This show can sweep you off your feet and into a new place. “It’s the magic of theater,” Haller said. “That really brings you into the story the way that no movie can.” Performances of “Beauty and the Beast” are at 3 p.m. and 8 p.m. Saturday at Stephens Auditorium. Tickets for ISU students are $32

KURE Fest makes return By Cole Komma Ames247 Writer KURE Fest, a free minimusic festival hosted by 88.5 KURE, the student-run radio station, will begin at 7 p.m. Thursday and continue until 12:30 a.m. Friday. KURE Fest will feature headliners Neon Indian and Kreayshawn KURE Fest “was something we had done annually for many years and it was a really cool event, but it stopped due to lack of interest from the board of directors,” said Darren Hushak, senior in electrical engineering and general manager of KURE. “We didn’t have the manpower to bring it back.” Earlier this year, KURE Fest returned. Six local bands performed, and more than 300 people filled the M-Shop throughout the night.

by William Shakespeare

“There were lots of people, it was fun” said MaryBeth Konkowski, president of Student Union Board. “When I went to the board to bring KURE Fest back, the plan was to do it for three years and see if we can reach our goals,” Hushak said of this year’s KURE Fest. This year, KURE is sticking to that plan, and will “ramp it up [from last year]” as Husak put it, and have Neon Indian and Kreayshawn as headliners. Hushak also said KURE Fest was brought back to “fill the void” left behind from the Freeman Spring Concert, another festival concert that was held in the Forker parking lot. Hushak reminded students to expect a long line, but said it will be a “generally awesome show. It’s gonna be a fun, highenergy, packed concert.”

A: Recently, I really enjoyed the Cymbals Eat Guitars and Hooray for Earth show that I booked. It was two bands that I liked that I was able to come on here on their tour, and it didn’t disappoint at all. It was a good show. Looking back on shows that I was around for when I wasn’t M-Shop director, Poison Control Center played a CD release party a couple years ago and it just blew my mind. It was such a great live show. Pat, the lead singer, was hanging from the light poles and playing his guitar and finishing songs hanging upside-down from the rafters. There have been so many awesome live shows that it’s kinda hard to pick a few favorites, but there are positive, great things about all the shows.

A: Ever since I started on SUB, I would always help out around the M-Shop, and I was interested in being involved with stuff at the M-Shop. That naturally progressed into me becoming the M-Shop director.

Interview:

Q: Have any funny stories from some of the bands you’ve booked?
