A JUGGLING ACT

Council approves housing meeting By Christie.Smith @iowastatedaily.com

Students balance taking care of children, keeping up with classes By Christie.Smith @iowastatedaily.com

efore 8 a.m. lectures started, Kristen Wall dressed and fed three children, sent two of them to school, took one to daycare and caught a bus to campus. Wall, 32-year-old junior in biology, is one of 36,001 ISU students this year. She’s also one of the 26 percent of college students in the United States who are jug-

gling being a parent and going to school. “It’s not really common to have a parent that’s a student — an undergrad especially — at a university,” Wall said. “I always had it in my head that if you have kids, you can’t go to a university, you’re stuck at a community college.” According to a study by the Institute for Women’s Policy Research, student parents represent 15 percent of all undergraduate students.

Wall, who graduated from Ames High School, moved to Tennessee after high school for a change of scenery. Without anyone in her family pressuring her to get an education, Wall didn’t think of college as a priority. Wall got married, had two sons and spent seven years as a homemaker before her world was uprooted; her husband left, and she was suddenly a single mother with no earning potential.

Club rubs elbows with Warren Buffett By Travis.Charlson @iowastatedaily.com A few ISU students had the opportunity of a lifetime earlier this month — picking the brain of business magnate Warren Buffett. A total of 20 students from the Economics Club met in Omaha, Neb., with seven other universities from across the nation at Berkshire Hathaway headquarters, the company that Buffett serves as CEO, president and chairman of the board. The trip included a two-hour Q&A session with Buffet, a tour of Nebraska Furniture Mart and lunch with the famous investor. “It was a big deal that Iowa State got to go,” said Locky Catron, senior in agricultural business. “There were a lot of MBAs there, so for a group of undergrads

from Iowa State to go was a really big deal.” The trip was two years in the making, said Hieu Nguyen, senior in finance and president of the Economics Club. Two years ago, an adviser gave Nguyen a pass to attend Berkshire Hathaway’s annual shareholders meeting. “What is a Berkshire, and who is this Warren Buffett?” Nguyen said, recounting what he previously knew of the billionaire investor. “After that first year, I knew that this was something I wanted the club to attend every year.” After doing his research and attending the shareholder’s meeting, Nguyen was determined. He, along with the vice president of the club, started writing letters to Buffett and his secretary, asking if they could attend one of Buffett’s Q&As for students. This landed

them on a waiting list along with 200 other schools. When the call from Buffett’s secretary came months later, Nguyen and the Economics Club jumped at the opportunity. Warren Buffett is one of the most successful investors of the 20th century and, according to Forbes, the second richest man in America. Despite vast amounts of wealth and his business savvy, he is noted as being personable and philanthropic. “He’s a very friendly and humble person,” Catron said. “At lunch I sat right across from him. We talked, and we had root beer floats.” Catron pointed out that the only major difference between a lifestyle like hers and the billionaire’s is the way in which they traveled — Buffett uses a private jet to get around.

“He lives in a simple house. He eats at McDonalds and Dairy Queen. He’s just a simple living, frugal person,” Catron said. Nguyen said that it wasn’t his wealth or fame that made him admire Buffett but rather his knowledge and personal qualities. “He has such an amazing mind,” Nguyen said. “He can simplify any matter into layman’s terms.” Both Catron and Nguyen said one of the biggest things they learned from the trip was focus. One of the most important attributes to be successful, Buffett said, was to have focus. And there must be a passion to have focus. “[The trip] was a motivation to work on the skills I have, to keep going and strive to do my best, and [Buffett] really stressed the

Ames City Council approved an affordable housing conference and discussed approval ratings of the Ames Municipal Airport update at a meeting Tuesday night. City Council voted unanimously to partner with A MidIowa Organizing Strategy and Iowa State to host a conference on creating affordable housing in Story County. Iowa State and the city of Ames have agreed to provide $5,000 each in funding for the conference and to provide staff members for the event planning committee. The Ames Convention and Visitors Bureau will also provide conference-planning assistance. A Mid-Iowa Organizing Strategy said the conference will focus on affordable housing solutions for low and moderateincome earners living in Story County. City Council has said that creating affordable housing options in Ames is a priority. The conference is scheduled for March 29 at the Scheman Building on Iowa State’s campus. City Council also discussed results of the annual Ames Residential Satisfaction Survey. More than 1,300 city residents and 1,200 ISU students were randomly selected to participate in the survey. ISU students completed 40 percent of the returned surveys. Many of the responses on items such as funding for CyRide or fire protection were consistent with past surveys; a majority of respondents were in favor of continuing the same level of funding that is currently in place. A new item, however, was introduced to the survey with a somewhat unexpected result, the city said. The city added a question about support for funding the Ames Municipal Airport. Approximately 75 percent of respondents said the airport was “somewhat or very unimportant.” “This airport’s approval rating is tied with Richard Nixon’s approval rating in August 1974, the month he resigned,” said Councilman Matthew Goodman. The $2.9 million airport update plan includes a new terminal and hangar not only to attract corporate flights but also to provide updated facilities for ISU flight students. The council said it needs additional time to consider the results of the survey and will address them at a later meeting.

Scholarship program offers domestic violence survivors path to success By Alex.Connor @iowastatedaily.com A woman is assaulted or beaten every nine seconds in the United States. During their lives, 1 in 3 women and 1 in 4 men will be victims of some form of physical violence by an intimate partner; on an average day more than 20,000 phone calls are placed to the domestic violence hotlines nationwide, according to the National Coalition Against Domestic Violence. There is no sugarcoating domestic violence, which is violent or aggressive behavior that typically involves the abuse of a spouse or partner. Domestic abuse victims will suffer economically, mentally and all too often physically because of the abuse they have faced from their partner. This abuse, when perpetrated against

women, will go unreported to the police 75 percent of the time. Even though October is coming to an end, and with it Domestic Violence Awareness Month, the discussions and assistance surrounding the abuse at hand do not. However, the domestic violence that these men and women face does not end. The Iowa Coalition Against Domestic Violence, celebrating its 30th anniversary this past September, will be offering more scholarships than ever before through the Alice Barton Scholarship Program, which provides assistance to domestic abuse survivors wishing to move on with their education and careers. “The Alice Barton Scholarship Program is an opportunity for survivors of domestic violence to help empower their future,” said Lindsay Pingel, director of community engagement for the coalition. The program will offer 35

survivors of domestic violence $1,000 scholarships that can be used towards tuition, books, school supplies, childcare or housing. “The one [scholarship] that we are currently taking applications for [is for] winter 2016,” Pingel said. “It’s the most we’ve ever given out, and really it’s because this is our fifth year since we’ve started this program.” Over the course of the past five years, the program has allocated $200,000 to its recipients. According to the coaliation’s website, the program “[enables] victims to gain new knowledge and skills” while “[helping] victims increase their self-confidence, find better employment and achieve economic independence. Pingel said that once the scholarship is given out, the communication doesn’t always end. “We have survivors who we work with that have applied for

this scholarship, and, just the things that they tell us on how it has given them confidence to move forward with their lives and their college education — it’s really empowering,” Pingel said. Pingel further said that seeing the cycle of abuse, watching a survivor come in at their lowest point and then evolve into their own self, knowing they are happy, healthy and safe, is a beautiful thing to watch. “All of these doors have opened up for them that in one time in their life they probably didn’t even think was possible,” Pingel said. For domestic abuse survivors, removing themselves from the cycle and from the perpetrator may be the hardest thing they may ever have to do. By doing so, opportunities like the Alice Barton Scholarship Program will act as a stepping stone toward a

Boil water alert lifted By Christie.Smith @iowastatedaily.com An Ames water main was broken Monday afternoon during construction at the new water treatment plant. The main is one of three major mains in Ames that supplies water to approximately 157 residential properties and 100 commercial properties. Iowa

State’s campus was not in the affected area. A boil water alert was issued to warn residents to boil tap water before use in order to kill bacteria and other organisms that may have contaminated the water during the break. The city of Ames has flushed hydrants, taken bacterial samples and has deemed that Ames tap water is again safe to drink. The boil water alert has been

lifted. Information about the flushing and sampling process can be found at the city of Ames website. While the city notified residents by several methods, including sending Ames Fire Department door to door in the affected areas, the city said individuals can help it streamline the process in case of disaster or emergency by visiting its website and setting up preferences for the alert system.

Kurt Bearinger, right, graduate student in community and regional planning, performs with his musical accompaniment. Bearinger sang the country songs “Lonely Eyes” and “I’m on Fire” on Tuesday night at the Alumni Center for the CyFactor competition, which is part of Homecoming Week. The talent competition allows for students to showcase their abilities in various disciplines. Performers included musicians, rappers, dancers and even a magician.

Spotlight on campus talent Students showcase abilities at CyFactor competition Tuesday By Jacob.Beals @iowastatedaily.com CyFactor brought unsung, on-campus talent to Iowa State’s Homecoming week, including musicians, dancers, rappers and even magicians. The 2015 CyFactor finals took place Tuesday night in the Reiman Ballroom at the Alumni Center, where nearly every seat was filled. CyFactor is an event that’s part of Homecoming and is meant to showcase the talents of students on campus. At the end of the show, Target gift cards were awarded to the winners with the top three performances. Leo Helm, singer and songwriter and freshman in chemical engineering, placed first with his performance of his original songs. Second prize was awarded to Michael Osman, magician and freshman in pre-business. Daniel Pramono, junior in industrial engineering, and Josie Chay, junior in industrial engineering, took home third prize with their singing duet. Pramone said he was very happy at the end of the show to be in the top three. “I feel amazing, thanks to God, I feel lucky because this is my first competition, and great job to Josie,” Pramone said. Helm said he also felt just as excited talking to many participants and audience members after the show. “I feel fantastic, I’m really flattered,” he said. “I have’t performed much since I got over here from Scotland, and I wasn’t sure how things were going to go down over here.” Several other performers also competed in CyFactor, most of whom were singers and musicians. The judges choose winners

Michael Osman, freshman in pre-business, placed second Tuesday in CyFactor. He was graded on a number of different factors including stage presence and originality.

Leo Helm was crowned the winner of the CyFactor competition Tuesday, after he performed two songs that he wrote himself. Helm was one of 15 finalists for the show.

based off of a points system, which varied for each type of performer. Shellie Andersen, judge and director of alumni travel and student programs for the ISU Alumni Association, said she was looking forward to the talent of the night. “I am looking for some unique acts and some diverse talent from our ISU students.” Andersen said. The show consisted of 15 finalists from preliminary competitions. Seven of the performers did their acts before intermission and eight more who went after. The night kicked off with Kourtnie Stephenson, freshman in apparel, merchandising and

design, who sang a cover of “Hallelujah” and an original song, “Just Another Love Song.” She was followed by an originally choreographed hip-hop dance by Abdul Mohammed, freshman in open option. The dance drew many in the audience out of their seat as Mohammed performed moves that took him from the ground into the air. The first half of the concert closed with a performance by the dance team Motion Sickness. This dance teams’ performance was the largest performance of the night with its group of 20 performers. They performed its hip-hop compilation.

Frankie Feldmeier, member of Motion Sickness and sophomore in integrated studio arts, said she was very happy after the performance and how passionate she was about the group. “I love sharing the different styles we have, and it brings me to my happy place,” Feldmeier said. After intermission, the show started back up with a performance by Osman. One trick involved him putting a rubber bird into a cup and placing it on a table with a cloth. He then lifted up the cloth and the whole table floated along with it. He told the audience this was his way of making his pet bird fly. Soon after, he brought the bird to life. Helm then brought perhaps the biggest cheers of the night with his performance of two original songs titled “I Know For You” and “Hot Lemonade.” Helm performed his songs acoustically with no microphones. He said he did this to “make it a more intimate experience.”

The concert was capped by Pramono and Chay, who performed a medley of Sam Smith songs. Kung fu artist Josh Myers, junior in mechanical engineering, said after his performance he was very excited to perform in CyFactor and show people his unique talent. “I don’t get to practice kung fu like I did at home, with classes I never get to do it, and this is an opportunity to do what I love,” Myers said. The talent show gave Myers an outlet for his talent he said he would not have gotten without CyFactor. Musical duo Lara Hetherton, sophomore in industrial design, and Steve Kryk, junior in industrial engineering, also talked about performing in their first CyFactor. “We do the open mic nights, but they are limited to what you can perform due to the smaller stage, but CyFactor allows a much broader range of talent including dancers, a Kung fu artist, musicians and a magician,” Kryk said.

ISU program benefits CyRide, students By Jace.Dostal @iowastatedaily.com Some students get caught in the loop of needing experience to get experience, but the ISU BioBus program aims to break the cycle. The program creates biofuel for CyRide buses while providing a way for students to get valuable work experience. “Our main mission is to teach about biorenewable fields in a practical way with a hands-on learn-

ing experience,” said Casey Nelson, senior in biological systems engineering and president of the ISU BioBus program. The ISU BioBus program officially started in 2008, but it was a slow process getting to where it is today. It started when original founder Bernardo Del Campo, graduate student in agricultural and biosystems engineering, decided that something needed to be done with the vegetable oil that the dining centers were throwing out.

“It was a shame that all of the oil was going to waste,” Del Campo said. “We knew we needed to do something about it.” He started researching ways that the oil could be used. When he heard about biofuels, he knew that was what he wanted to turn the oil into. Del Campo started working on finding funds to start the program. These funds came in the form of multiple grants that helped purchase equipment to make the

biofuel, he said. In 2009, ISU BioBus started its official partnership with CyRide and ISU Dining. The dining centers would give BioBus the excess vegetable oil, and then the group would turn it into biofuel for CyRide to use. “The whole process takes a few weeks to complete because we have limited lab time,” said Daniel Moraes, senior in chemical engineering and president of engineering for ISU BioBus. Moraes said the group

makes about 40 gallons of biofuel per batch, which translates to between 60 and 80 gallons per semester. When the partnership between the BioBus and dining centers started, the dining centers brought the oil to the group, but they soon got tired of that. They eventually told the BioBus that if they wanted the oil they had to get it themselves, Del Campo said. So the group set out to find something to transfer the oil in. They eventually found something that

they call the Super Sucker, a miniature oil tank on wheels that allows the group to transfer the oil safely to their lab in the Biorenewables Lab. Del Campo and Nelson can both attest to the aid that the ISU BioBus program can give to helping secure internships. “I’ve seen many members of the BioBus get really good internships,” Nelson said. “Our main goal is to educate people about biofuels, so it’s nice to see that what we are doing is helping people.”

ing curve for the student parents, they’ve used the opportunity to teach their children a lesson about the value of an education. “When you’re a teenager, it’s hard to understand how important college is,� Linderblood said. Now she studies with her oldest daughter Alivia. “We do homework side by side,� Linderblood said. “I think she’s building that view that education is really important.� Wall and her husband, who’s a tow truck driver in Ames, have tried to encourage their kids to go to college as well. “I try to involve them in everything I can as far as me being a student,� Wall said. “I also try to stress to them how hard it is the longer you wait.� Although Berry hasn’t had the college talk with his 3-year-old yet, he says the topic is non-negotiable. “She has no choice but to go to college,� Berry said. “She’ll see me graduate, you know. I think that will stick with her.� While Berry, Linderblood and Wall prepare to walk across that stage and receive their degrees, they urge any parents who may be reconsidering college to take the plunge. They suggest starting at a community college, where you can ease into the demands of student life, surrounding yourself with supportive people and positive influences and researching all of the resources available to you.

surveyed said they spent at least 30 hours per week caring for their children, which significantly decreased the amount of time they could devote to school work. “With college, you take a lot home with you,� Wall said. “The hardest part for me is keeping up with stuff outside of class.� Wall, who is now remarried and has had a third child, often waits to do homework when her children are asleep or when her husband is home to play “referee.� Linderblood said she relies on help from her husband and their supportive network of family in the area to give her the time she needs to attend class and do homework. “Sometimes I just have to miss class and make up for it,� Linderblood said. For Berry, friends and roommates have offered to watch his daughter so he can study for a test or make it to class. When babysitters and daycare fall through, Wall and Linderblood have had to bring their children to class. “I’ve had to bring them to large lectures with me,� Wall said, “They almost go unnoticed.� Each of the student parents said they try to let their professors know when they’re experiencing issues. “Most of them will say, ‘We understand that life happens,’� Wall said. Berry said many of his professors have children themselves, so they understand the challenges. “It’s just a lot of balancing,� Berry said, “I’m getting the hang of it.� Despite the sleepless nights, hectic mornings and never-ending cycles of homework and laundry, the light is at the end of the tunnel for Berry, Linderblood and Wall.

“When he left, it made me realize that nothing is guaranteed,� Wall said. “The only thing I can guarantee is what I do for myself. I can’t depend or rely on anybody else.� Wall knew then that she had to go back to school. Bralen Berry, 22-yearold senior in aerospace engineering, had a similar epiphany as a single father. Berry was a senior in high school when he found out that his then-girlfriend was pregnant. “I thought, ‘My life’s over,’� Berry said. “‘My mom is going to kill me.’� As an African-American teenager, Berry said he felt like he was a statistic and that made him angry. Until he found out that he was going to be a father, Berry had not planned on going to college. “I don’t want to struggle the rest of my life and not give [my daughter] what she wants,� Berry said. “I decided I’m going to school.� Berry enrolled at Iowa State immediately after high school. During his first semester, his daughter Isabel was born. The daycares in Ames were already full, and Berry had to miss a lot of class to care for her. He failed out. Berry took a year off school and moved out of state with Isabel and her mother, getting a physically demanding job at UPS. “I realized, ‘Wow, I don’t want to do this for the rest of my life,’� Berry said. Berry was struggling to get along with his daughter’s mother. The stress of being in a job and relationship that made him unhappy was making him impatient and irritable. “I didn’t like the person I was becoming,� Berry said. Berry moved back to Iowa in summer 2013 and enrolled at Des Moines Area Community College. After

getting an A in calculus that semester, Berry knew he was ready to come back to Iowa State and get back to work. For Kelsie Linderblood, college was always part of the plan. Linderblood, 26-yearold senior in biology, was enrolled at DMACC immediately after high school when she found out she was pregnant. She withdrew from DMACC to move to Georgia, where her boyfriend Adam was stationed with the U.S. Navy. Linderblood and Adam got married and eventually had two more children. When Adam got out of the Navy in 2009, the couple moved back to Ames with an agreement that they would take turns going to college and supporting their family. Adam got two degrees in three years at Iowa State while Linderblood supported the family by working at grocery stores and doing registration work at local hospitals. “I had this overwhelming sense that I wasn’t helping anybody [at the grocery store],� Linderblood said. “[I felt that] if I stopped showing up for work, it wouldn’t be a big deal.� For two summers, Linderblood took one class at a time at DMACC to start easing back into life as a student. Reflecting on her time spent working in local hospitals, Linderblood knew she wanted to be a doctor. Coming back to Iowa State as full-time undergraduates was not the happy ending for Wall, Berry or Linderblood. “The expectations are so much different,� Wall said. “It’s harder to really succeed at a four-year university.� According to the Institute for Women’s Policy Research, 33 percent of student parents obtain a fouryear degree within six years of enrollment. More than 50 percent of student parents

Starting in March 2016, Playboy magazine will not feature nudity, instead opting for a more PG-13 approach. This make the brand more appropriate for social media and will put more emphasis on the quality of Playboy’s articles, broadening its reach and attracting a stronger, more involved and more diverse audience.

Playboy evolves to survive Iconic magazine swears off nudity to attract more readers

By Angelica.Lawson @iowastatedaily.com

“If you’re ... between the ages of 18 and 80, Playboy is meant for you,” said 89-year-old Hugh Hefner. Playboy announced its most recent revamp in October: The 62-year-old magazine will no longer feature nudity. The news does not come as a surprise, since Playboy has already removed nudity from its website. The new and improved Playboy will be unveiled March 2016. Many people in Playboy’s target market are displeased with this decision. A lot of loyal readers of Playboy have enjoyed the photographic content, and the removal of the vast nudity that was available has created an understandable outrage. Since Playboy’s foundation, it has thrived on the display of female nakedness. This model worked well for Playboy, but times have changed. Playboy needs to be more modern. To keep its brand relevant, Playboy has to be willing to evolve with its readers and the competing availablility of similar content on other platforms. Getting rid of the complete nudity that the magazine is known for is drastic but strategic. This change is one that I endorse. Playboy needs to build a younger and more gender-inclusive brand to receive the loyalty that will keep it around for another 62 years. Andrew Wallenstein, coeditor-

in-chief of Variety, said in a “Today Show” interview that the internet killed Playboy. He mentioned you can Google nudity and it is right there. Playboy has lost its once iconic edge. Now that the level of competition has increased, the reinvention of Playboy is more necessary than ever before. The Playboy brand has seen a lot of success since its market debut in 1953 with the Marilyn Monroe cover. The brand expanded and had several different businesses like Playboy TV, Playboy Radio, Playboy merchandise and the Playboy Club at the Palms, just to name a few. Many business adventures were successful, while others didn’t stand the test of time. Either way you interpret it, the brand has continuously changed and adapted, and this is just its latest facelift. The brand was reborn during the “Girls Next Door” era as we watched Hugh Hefner’s three girlfriends live their lives at the mansion in the Playboy universe. But this adaptation of the brand didn’t last, leaving room for more necessary changes. Playboy needed to rise to the level of its competition. The nudity market has grown since 1953, and it is now saturated with free and paid nude content. Since Playboy entered the magazine market, Maxim, Hustler, Penthouse and Playboy have had to compete with free image sites, and it has shown in their numbers — the magazine’s circulation has decreased. At its peak, Playboy magazine distribution was at 5.6 million, and now it is a measly 800,000. With the revision of Playboy, its audience can still expect racy photos but in a PG-13 sort of way. The magazine will still have a Playmate of the Month, and she will have a photoshoot, but it will not feature full-frontal nudity.

Playboy has given few details in what the revision will look like for its readers. Cory Jones, the chief content editor for Playboy, revealed in a New York Times interview that the new Playboy will have photos, but it will also high-quality feature articles. Talks have included adding a sex columnist to the mix. The addition of a sex column will hopefully help Playboy grab that female audience it had been missing. Having this revision should help Playboy migrate into this digital age. By making its digital and print content PG13, it can post more on social media sites and gain more digital brand followers. When it made its website daylight appropriate, it increased its web traffic dramatically. Now, with the update of the magazine, it can really develop its presence on social media. This is something that the Playboy audience should be open to. Some people who openly oppose Playboy and say it objectifies women can feel a little better about the magazine now that it has adopted a PG-13 brand image. The rebrand will bring a more positive representation of women in the magazine. The articles will be now be the focal point and not just a joke. Playboy is going to elevate its magazine to broaden its reach. The revision will better the company as a whole and ultimately help the reader. When these changes are unveiled, readers will be able to hold their heads high when they purchase their monthly Playboy because they will be buying more than pornography — they will be buying into a brand that seeks not only to entertain but also offer enrichment to its readers on a day-to-day basis.

Pregnant women deserve fair treatment By Courtney.Carstens @iowastatedaily.com About 1.5 in every 1,000 infants is born with fetal alcohol syndrome every year in the United States, and many others are born to mothers who used illegal drugs while pregnant. However, this has been an issue since 1989, when a hospital in South Carolina screened pregnant women who entered its facilities and drug tested certain women. Positive tests were then turned over to the police, and the mothers could potentially go to jail. The case became Ferguson v. City of Charleston, and in 2001, the Supreme Court ruled 6 to 3 that drug testing these women was against the Fourth Amendment because the tests were done without consent The hospital posed a serious threat to women’s health care rights. I believe what the hospital did was morally sound — it had the best interest of the children at heart. However, by cracking down on the mothers through these drug tests, the hospital went too far. The hospital cannot violate someone’s constitutional rights in order to protect infants, yet these incidents continue to take

Pregnant women who have a history of drug or alcohol abuse should be subject to drug tests, but those tests need to be conducted with the women’s consent and in line with the U.S. Constitution.

place. A case earlier this year included an Alabama hospital quietly administering drug tests to pregnant women. Despite the fact that doing drugs while pregnant is a form of child abuse in Alabama and hospitals are mandatory reporters, they cannot give these mothers drug tests

without their consent. By subjecting pregnant women to drug testing, hospitals are ultimately scaring away other women who may be in need of medical care because of the fear of being forced to take a drug test. The Ferguson v. Charleston ruling was correct because the decision was better for the general population. While many of these mothers may not be partaking in recreational drug use, those who are and know about hospital practices like these may find alternative ways to treat themselves putting the child at even more of a risk. The South Carolina hospital’s reasoning behind enacting such a controversial policy was an ethical one because it was trying to protect unborn children, but the way it was brought about was wrong. It could have figured out a way to implement a policy that did something with similar effects without violating the Fourth Amendment. The Fourth Amendment states that people have the right to protect themselves against unreasonable searches and seizures. The amendment also states that warrants shall be issued only if there is probable cause. The South Carolina hospi-

tal drug tested women without their consent, which violates the unreasonable search and seizure provision in the Bill of Rights. It violated this law simply by issuing these tests — the slight suspicion that a soon-to-be-mother is currently or has been doing drugs or drinking alcohol while pregnant is not a probable cause for a drug test. The hospital in South Carolina was trying to do a good thing by trying to lower the number of children affected at birth by mothers who drink or do illegal drugs. The actions the hospital took to achieve its goal were wrong, but I believe there is validity to its actions. Hospitals and the government should come together and try to make some sort of law that punishes mothers for having drugs in their system while they are pregnant. For example, if a woman has a proven history of drug or alcohol abuse within a certain number of years, that should make it legal for them to be subjected to drug tests. This would get child services involved to prevent infants from being brought into an unsafe environment. Our government and healthcare facilities need to work together to get the job done.

Graduates, state will gain from tax breaks The three state universities in Iowa work to educate students on an undergraduate level, with the goal to prepare graduate students to ultimately add to the workforce when they leave any of the three campuses. But it turns out that the workforce that they are adding to isn’t even in Iowa. It’s called “brain drain,” and Iowa is feeling its effects. After students graduate with a four-year undergraduate degree or a graduate degree they don’t seem to be staying in the state that educated them. Instead, graduates are looking to larger cities to provide their first professional jobs. This migration of sorts is leaving the Iowa workforce lacking in up-and-coming professionals. During its last meeting at the University of Iowa, the Board of Regents addressed this issue with an enticing incentive to stay in Iowa — money. It was proposed by a collection of students from each of the three universities that graduate and professional students receive a 50 percent tax break if they decide to stay in Iowa to work. And more than that, if a student decided Iowa was the place for them, they would receive a 75 percent tax break if they lived in a nonmetropolitan area. This means that students would need to be employed outside of major cities like Cedar Rapids, Iowa City and Des Moines. Although we see the difficulty in that, the benefits to Iowa and the students themselves outweigh the potential negatives, and this is a proposal that should be put through. The obvious initial argument is that finding a job in a smaller area does not come as easy as it potentially could in a larger city. Additionally, not all majors are conducive to life in a small- to medium-sized town. But one thing that all students have in common, regardless of the major they leave their respective university with, is making money in the real world and dealing with the situations that come with being an adult right out of college, including taxes. If anything can be done to help newly graduated college students get on their feet — to start figuring out how to make a dent in their mountain of college — it’s a positive thing. Offering graduates a tax break is a huge incentive and will more than likely be an effective and feasible way to keep young professionals in big-city and small-town Iowa. These universities used their resources to educate young people to become young professionals; all effort should be made to retain them in the state that helped them become young professionals with newly minted degrees.

FIGHTING BACK ISU safety attempts to push through injury By Max.Dible @iowastatedaily.com Kamari Cotton-Moya is down, but he may not be out — at least not for good. Iowa State’s safety was running in open space at practice last Wednesday in preparation for the Baylor game when disaster struck. No contact was involved, but Cotton-Moya suffered a hamstring injury that brought him to his knees. His thoughts immediately turned to the worst-case scenario. “It hurt so much that I didn’t know what to think,” CottonMoya said. “I just thought I was done for the season, so that really hurt me — hurt me deep inside.” But after running the full medical gauntlet, some hope remains that Cotton-Moya could get back on the field this season. And that hope is not confined to the subjective optimism of an injured player who wants nothing more than to get back between the lines. “I’m actually encouraged by Kamari right now and the progress that’s been made in six days. He went from walking stiff-legged to now, his normal walking gate, you couldn’t tell [he’s hurt],” said ISU coach Paul Rhoads. “There’s an outside chance [he’ll play again this season], but he’s still got a long way to go.” The injury remains undiagnosed, but Cotton-Moya — who isn’t at the stage in his rehab yet where he’s able to run — said team trainers have explained the injury could span two to six weeks depending on his body’s response. While not offering any specific timeframe beyond that, Cotton-Moya made clear his intention to get back into uniform before season’s end. But until then, it will require a collective effort in the secondary to replace him — no small task in the opinion of ISU defensive coordinator Wally Burnham. “He’s, if not the best, one of the best defensive backs we’ve got. He’s kind of our general,” Burnham said. “We’ll miss that.

We’ll miss his leadership, miss his play. He had a lot of tackles this year, the way we’re using our safeties in this defense — so he’s going to be missed greatly.” Cotton-Moya has racked up 40 tackles this season, tied with linebacker Willie Harvey for the fourth most on the team, including 2.5 tackles for loss. Back from an injury of his own, CottonMoya’s primary replacement will be Qujuan Floyd. “Having Qujuan back and playing at the level he’s playing is important,” Rhoads said, lauding not only Floyd’s performance against Baylor but also the secondary’s as a whole. “Having a guy like Jomal Wiltz gives us some flexibility … and I’m a big fan of De’Monte Ruth.” Wiltz has experience at safety, corner and nickel, although Rhoads said he doesn’t expect Wiltz will make a full transition to the free safety spot because he’s too valuable as a cornerback in the schemes the Cyclones want to run. Ruth picked up more playing time against Baylor, and Rhoads said he’s very confident putting Ruth on the field in a more thorough capacity against Texas on Saturday. Better play from cornerback Nigel Tribune is also a sign that Iowa State could absorb the loss of Cotton-Moya without too much turmoil. “He graded out very high [against Baylor],” Rhoads said of Tribune. “[He] didn’t necessarily make plays on the ball but didn’t give the quarterback room to put a ball, and incompletions were thrown his way. “I thought it was his best game as a Cyclone.” So it seems the rest of the defensive backfield will hold down the unit in Cotton-Moya’s absence, as he continues to progress daily toward his goal of stepping back onto the field at least once more in 2015. He simply wasn’t meant for the sideline. “I hate it so much because it’s not who I am,” Cotton-Moya said of his injury-forced hiatus from football. “I miss it every day.”

Iowa State Daily

Reshirt sophomore safety Kamari Cotton-Moya chases after West Virginia’s Rushel Shell during last year’s game, which the Cyclones lost 37-24. Cotton-Moya is unable to play after suffering a hamstring injury during practice Oct. 21.

Wally World Safety Kamari CottonMoya wasn’t the only Cyclone who was sidelined Tuesday at Iowa State’s football practice. ISU defensive coordinator Wally Burnham was inadvertently cleated in the leg during a tackling drill. He couldn’t remember or hadn’t

seen the player who accidentally stomped him, but that didn’t make the injury any less severe. “I was standing behind the wrong guy,” Burnham said. “He stepped backwards and got me in my shin.” But 20 stitches later, Burnham was back on the field after what he joked was

his worst injury sustained in more than four decades as a football coach. “[Wally] didn’t miss a beat. He was back out there as soon as the last stitch was tied and coaching like the devil,” Rhoads said. “[I’m] not sure who it was. Wally’s not the type to look for a number.”

Cyclones reach midway point in season ISU report card highlights player accomplishments By Kevin.Horner @iowastatedaily.com The midpoint in any season presents a time for reflection and a time for continued preparation. Through the first eight Big 12 volleyball games of the season, Iowa State (13-6, 6-2 Big 12) sits in third place in the conference standings below No. 10 Kansas (19-1, 7-1 Big 12) and No. 2 Texas (18-1, 8-0 Big 12). Those teams have presented the Cyclones with their only conference losses. Upperclassmen have continued to produce for the Cyclones and young talent has begun to emerge. Here is the 2015 ISU volleyball midseason report: Offensive MVP Freshman outside hitter Jess Schaben: Schaben entered her first season at Iowa State as one of six freshmen. She received early praise from ISU coach Christy JohnsonLynch at the media day press conference Aug. 19 and justified that praise almost immediately. In her first game action, Schaben notched 32 kills during three matches at the season-opening Cyclone Invitational. She followed that performance with a careerhigh 28 kills against Appalachian State, which set the freshman record for kills in a match. Schaben has carried her offensive efficiency into the bulk of the regular season, leading the Cyclones in total kills with 218. She has notched at least 70 more kills than any other Cyclone and is on pace for roughly 330 kills on the season, which would be just 23 kills short of the ISU freshman single-season record. Defensive MVP Senior libero Caitlin Nolan: Nolan was a unanimous selection to the 2015 All-Big 12 Preseason Team and has earned two Big

Katy Klopfenstein/Iowa State Daily

Midseason grades are in for the ISU volleyball team. Freshman outside hitter Jess Schaben is the offensive MVP, senior libero Caitlin Nolan is the defensive MVP, outside hitter Natalie Vondrak is the X factor and middle blocker Samara West is the most improved player.

12 Defensive Player of the Week awards since the season began. Nolan leads the team in digs with 401 — 240 more than any other Cyclone. Nolan is operating at a rate of 5.90 digs per set. In 2014, she has recorded more than 30 digs on three separate occasions. Nolan leads the Big 12 in digs and digs per set, averaging 0.91 more digs per set than any other Big 12 player. Like the liberos before her, Nolan has carried on Iowa State’s legacy of “Libero U.” X factor Outside hitter Natalie Vondrak: After seeing her playing time decrease in 2014, Vondrak has already played 15 matches this year. Vondrak is seventh on the team with 61 total kills. Although she has not played nearly as much as players like Schaben and Nolan, Vondrak has provided energy and efficiency

in key situations throughout the season. When the Cyclones trailed 1713 in the third set against Kansas State on Oct. 7, Vondrak recorded four kills on a .375 hitting percentage with two digs and an ace in the last 19 points of the set. “That’s kind of [Vondrak’s] M.O.,” Johnson-Lynch said. “She’s got a tremendous amount of will to her. She’s stubborn, and I say that in a good way. She’s just a tremendous competitor. I don’t think it matters what situation you put her in. “It could be 15-all for the match point of the Final Four, and I think she would act just the same. She just always competes.” Most improved player Redshirt sophomore middle blocker Samara West: Even after a successful season in 2014 in which she recorded a .236 hitting percentage, West has stepped up

her game in 2015. Just 19 matches into the season, West is three kills and four blocks shy of her 2014 totals of 140 kills and 55 blocks. The area that has seen the most improvement in West’s game, however, is the same area that set her apart in 2014 — her hitting percentage. West’s .412 hitting percentage ranks first in the Big 12 and 18th in the nation. Biggest win Sept. 30, 3-1 win at Oklahoma: It was Iowa State’s second Big 12 game of the season and the first one on the road. The Cyclones were coming off a 3-0 win against Texas Tech. The Sooners took the opening set in a 30-28 marathon, wearing down the Cyclones. In a close second set, sophomore Monique Harris buried an overpass to give the Cyclones a 25-23 set win, evening up the score heading into the break.

The Cyclones carried the momentum through the break and into the final two sets, claiming them both. Oklahoma was the only other team besides Texas to receive a first place vote in the Big 12 preseason poll. Strengths During the first half of the Big 12 season, two stat lines have emerged for Iowa State compared to the rest of the Big 12 — digs and service aces. The Cyclones currently trail only Kansas State in digs per set by .01, which aligns with JohnsonLynch’s history of successful liberos. As Nolan leads the Big 12 in digs, defensive efficiency has allowed the Cyclones to extend rallies and win points. Johnson-Lynch has always emphasized “serving tough” in order to get opponents out of a rhythm. Iowa State’s 1.44 aces per set reflects Johnson-Lynch’s efforts. Sophomore Branen Berta has led the serving charge, leading the team with 22 aces, which is third best in the Big 12. Weaknesses Despite Iowa State’s defensive strengths in terms of digs, the Cyclones have had trouble succeeding at the net defensively. The Cyclones rank eighth out of nine teams in the Big 12 for blocks per set, averaging 1.96. Iowa State is the only other team besides West Virginia to have an average below 2.0. On the other side of the ball, Iowa State also ranks just seventh in the conference in hitting percentage at .238. Although the Cyclones rank fourth in kills per set, their attacking errors, 405, have significantly downgraded their hitting percentage, leaving room for improvement. Looking forward “I’m excited for the second half of the Big 12 [season],” Johnson-Lynch said. “Lot of matches to be played, a lot can happen before NCAA’s start, but I think generally speaking, we’re in a good spot. I’m excited to see what the next several weeks hold.”

Drink with caution Importance of safety increases for students on Halloween By Janae.Verhelst @iowastatedaily.com Halloween is upon us, and for some students 21 and older, it could mean a weekend full of drinking, dressing up and celebrating. In order to stay safe this Halloween weekend while drinking, make sure you follow these simple, yet helpful tips to keep you hydrated and safe all weekend. A golden rule celebrators tend to forget is making sure they eat before they start drinking. This is an absolute must. According to Shape Magazine, alcohol metabolizes slower when people have food in their system. If you haven’t eaten, alcohol can hit your system within the first 30 minutes of drinking.If you have eaten, it will take about five to six hours to hit your sys-

tem, which is a huge game changer. If you are too busy creating your Halloween outfit to eat a solid meal that day, pack a few snacks in whichever bag you bring along. In order to avoid tapping out before everyone else, drink plenty of water. This can’t be stressed enough. Alcohol causes dehydration. In order to keep safe and avoid a hangover, drink a glass of water between each drink. This may seem silly and repetitive, but waking up the next day will be a lot easier. Just like running a marathon, a pace is needed, and that is exactly what should be happening this weekend. Don’t chug drinks or take an excessive amount of shots. Take time to enjoy your drink and the people around you for safe and responsible drinking.

Luckily for Ames, Uber is now in the mix. Download the app before heading out to the bars or party, so you have a safe alternative and reliable way home. According to The Doctor’s Guide To Drinking Healthy, always drink in moderation. More than four drinks in a sitting for women, and more than five in a sitting for men are considered binge drinking. Sipping water in between drinks is a great way to slow down the count. Halloween is supposed to be fun and memorable. If you start feeling tired, moody, hungry or exhausted, go home and nap. Drink some water, have dinner and gather yourself before the rest of the night. Several ways exist to have fun this weekend that don’t include alcohol, but if you choose to drink, be sure to stay safe and have fun.

Dodge weekend danger By Emily.Schroer @iowastatedaily.com Since Halloween is just days away, people should remember the importance of safety. It’s important that a person knows how to react and protect himself or herself if he or she ends up getting caught in an uncomfortable situation. Anthony Greiter, communications outreach officer with the ISU Police Department, said the most important thing to remember this Halloween is “take care of yourself.” Greiter continuously repeated the same three words: morals, health and safety. “If you see something, you say something,” Greiter said. Using safe judgment and trusting senses will let people know if something is wrong. It can be something as little as a chill down the spine or as large as a fight starting to break out. Another important

Stay safe this Halloween Non-emergency: 515-294-4428 Safe escort home: 515-294-4444 Arrangements for pickup: 515-292-1100 thing to remember is that ISU Police will not be bothered by a call, no matter the circumstances, Greiter said. He said it is the police department’s responsibility to keep students safe and step in if they are not feeling safe or secure. . In addition to the regular three or four officers the depatment has out on a weekend, ISU Police will staff more officers for the Halloween weeked because of the influx of visitors in Ames for Halloween and Homecoming. The more officers who are on duty the safer everyone will be. Just remember, it’s their job to provide protection, so don’t be afraid to ask an officer for help. If something suspicious begins to happen but it is not an emergency, call

the ISU non-emergency helpline at 515-294-4428. If an emergency happens, call 911 for immediate help. It’s important to remember if you are going to a party or bar and you know you are going to drink alcohol, then give the keys to someone sober or just leave the car keys at home to prevent drunk driving. Ames has a bus system called Moonlight Express that runs from 10:30 p.m. to 3 a.m. Friday and Saturday nights. A scheduled map is available on the ISU website, and if you want to make arrangements to be picked up, call 515-2921100. ISU students or faculty members who feel unsafe while walking home can call the ISU Department of Public Safety Escort Service at 515-294-4444.

Halloween doesn’t have to only include alcoholic beverages. Students can create candy corn jello shots, butterbeer or even a “Hocus Pocus”-inspired drink to celebrate the spooky holiday.

HALLOWEEN COCKTAILS Non-alcoholic alternatives offer new way to celebrate By Selina.Hilts @iowastatedaily.com The season of pumpkin-spice lattes and apple cider has finally arrived, and everyone is getting excited for Halloween. While some people are getting ready to go trick or treating, college campuses are getting ready for the costume parties on Halloween weekend. Even though going out on Halloween is fun, other alternatives are available to drinking alcohol. If you don’t want to drink or want a night in, many amazing recipes are available to make creative Halloweeninspired cocktails: “Hocus Pocus”-inspired drink Ingredients • 1 1/2 cups pineapple juice • 1/4 teaspoon almond extract • 1/4 teaspoon imitation coconut extract • 3 drops red food coloring • 2 drops yellow food coloring • 1 bottle sparkling white grape juice • Cranberries if desired Ingredients for colored sugar • 2 tablespoons sugar • 5 drops red food coloring • 5 drops yellow food coloring Directions 1. Mix pineapple juice, almond extract, coconut extract and food coloring in a pitcher. 2. If desired, coat the rim of a glass with food-colored sugar*. 3. After mixing, pour 2 ounces of the pineapple juice mixture into a glass. 4. Top it off with the sparkling white grape juice and cranberries. *Add sugar and five drops of red food coloring and five drops of red food coloring in zip-close bag. Knead until color is evenly spread. Place the sugar on a plate and wet the rim of the glass slightly. Turn the rim of the glass in the colored

sugar until it sticks. Candy corn jello shots Ingredients • 1 small box lemon jello • 1 small box orange jello • 2 packets unflavored gelatin • 2 cups boiling water • Cool Whip • Sprinkles for garnish, optional Directions 1. Stir the lemon jello and 1 packet of unflavored gelatin in a small bowl. 2. Add 1 cup boiling water and stir until dissolved. 3. Add the jello to shot glasses, filling them about halfway. 4. Place jello in fridge for about 20 minutes. 5. Repeat steps one and two with orange jello and unflavored gelatin. 6. Top off the shot glasses with orange jello to create the candy corn appearance. 7. Cool Whip and sprinkles can be added when serving if desired. Butterbeer Ingredients • 2 cups cream soda; if unavailable, apple cider and ginger beer are also an option • 1 cup vanilla ice cream, softened • 2 tablespoons butter • 2 tablespoons brown sugar • Dash of cinnamon and nutmeg Directions 1. Place the cream soda or apple cider in a saucepan until it is heated. 2. While it’s heating, mix vanilla ice cream, butter, brown sugar and cinnamon in a small bowl. 3. When the soda or cider is hot, pour it in a blender and add the ice cream mixture. 4. Pulse this on high for about five seconds. 5. For serving, pour the butterbeer into individual mugs, and sprinkle a dash of nutmeg on top. Should the opportunity arise to stay in and just have a fun night with friends or maybe a Harry Potter marathon, these three recipes will create the perfect Halloween ambiance.

BUFFET p1 importance of communication,” Catron said. “The best quote from him was, ‘If you can’t communicate, it’s like winking at a girl in the dark.’” Nguyen hopes the Economics club can take advantage of events like this in the future and is glad that the club is able to provide these opportunities for students. “For me it was a dream come true,” Nguyen said. “I’m sure everybody had a blast.”

VIOLENCE p1 better, safer life. “A survivor who applies for our scholarship, they could be someone who experienced domestic violence 10 or 15 years ago who have now started a whole new life for themselves and have come to a really good place in their life, and this is just the next step that they want to take,” Pingel said. The scholarship is open to any and all survivors of domestic abuse and is non-discriminatory to gender, sex, race or age. If an applicant is not accepted for the upcoming scholarship, they are always welcome to reapply later on in the year. “The criteria for it is kind of the need, the financial need,” Pingel said. “It’s extremely, extremely hard

The coalition’s website says, “The Alice Barton Scholarship Program was founded by Roxanne Conlin, her brother Raymond Barton and her sister Rhoda Olsen in honor of their mother Alice Barton, a survivor of domestic violence.” Conlin is an Iowa trial attorney and longtime supporter of the coalition. Barton is the founder and chairman of the board of

Applications can be found on the Iowa Coalition Against Domestic Violence’s website, www. icadv.org. For Domestic Violence Awareness Month, the coalition also hosted a campaign that involved replacing lights outside your home or office with a purple bulb to show support for domestic violence victims. There was also the 31 Day Challenge that shows ways you can take a stand and raise awareness for domestic violence, as well as #purplethursday, a hashtag and campaign that asked people to wear purple to raise awareness for the issue.
