TUESDAY 11.28.2017 No. 065 Vol 213
BY WHITNEY.MASON AND EMILY.BLOBAUM @iowastatedaily.com This piece is part of a series about people in the Iowa State community who are affected by the decisions the U.S. Government makes about the Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals (DACA). Put into place by the Obama administration in 2012, DACA protects undocumented immigrants who came to the United States as children. On Sept. 5, 2017, U.S. Attorney General Jeff Sessions announced that the Trump administration would rescind DACA, with a six-month delay for Congress to act. If legislative action does not occur, recipients, also called Dreamers, may lose their protected status beginning March 6, 2018. The following passages, save the first paragraph, are those of Hugo Bolanos, Andrea and Jair and have been edited and condensed for brevity and clarity.
HUGO Hugo Bolanos, a 2017 graduate from Iowa State, arrived in the United States with his aunt and cousin in May 2000. He started school that August, attending Crestview Elementary in Clive, Iowa. “I tried making friends as soon as I got here, but I didn’t know any English so I tried playing some games with some of the kids, but the way you play games in Mexico is completely different than the way
you play here. In Mexico you don’t have much of a playground, you maybe have some swings and then that’s about it, but in Mexico I remember, as weird as it sounds, we’d throw rocks at each other and you try to dodge them and it would be kind of like dodgeball. I remember I came to first grade and the first recess, I was like “OK, I don’t know what’s going on, I’ll just try and make friends” and there was this rock climbing wall with some rocks at the bottom just in case you fell and I remember I grabbed some rocks and threw them at some kids to initiate “Hey, do you want to play?” but I remember I got in trouble and I would get rule slips. It caused my parents to get even more mad at me and I didn’t know how to defend myself because I didn’t know English so after a while I was like “OK, maybe throwing rocks isn’t the best idea.” ——— [Life in Mexico] was horrible. I remember my dad would always bring up “Oh, you gotta appreciate what you have here in America,” and he would always tell me stories about how when he was growing up he didn’t have much to eat, he would just eat tortillas with salt, and that was it. He would always remind me of how he didn’t have much underwear, just because he didn’t have much money to buy it so he would wear the same underwear for more than

two days, it just made me realize, damn, shit was tough. My mom also mentioned that when my sister was born, they would have to use the same diaper, just trying their best to clean it out and use the same diaper all over again. That’s not something you really imagine, it’s just really scary to think about, compared to how we’re living now. I think ultimately my parents made a great decision coming here just because we live so much better. _______ Now that Trump has gone with what he said and from now until March is just kind of a waiting game, so every day I’m terrified. Every night I pray and thank God for giving me another day here and hopefully the next day can also be in the States. A week in my shoes is just knowing that you’re going to have to wake up and think about this and sometimes when you hear the door knocking, it could be you, your last day or sometimes when you’re eating with your family, it could be the last meal you have with them. Sometimes when you’re driving, it could be the last time you’re driving down that street. It just hurts because you never know when your last day’s going to come and also you want to show people that you’re not a bad person, you want them to understand what you’re going through and also see the

way that you do it because there’s no reason for DACA to be gone. I try to be a positive person and I try and just make every day like it’s my last so it’s like if you were to see me today as my last day, it’s kind of like oh “he was always happy, he was always joyful” and that’s what I think about every day, just making everyone seem like they matter and making everyone see that there’s always going to be problems but there’s always good things to look forward to you.”

EMILY BLOBAUM/ IOWA STATE DAILY Andrea didn’t feel completely comfortable talking about being undocumented until she came to college.
EMILY BLOBAUM/ IOWA STATE DAILY Andrea, who was born in Guatemala and raised in Storm Lake, Iowa, says she feel safe under the DACA program, but often wakes up terrified that she or her family will get deported.
ANDREA
Andrea, who was born in Guatemala City, Guatemala, arrived in the United States on Christmas Day in 2004. “I remember getting to the Omaha airport and just seeing the snow for the first time in my life, and I could never forget that feeling because it was so calming and so welcoming in a way. I thought, “this is it.” I was six and I was so excited that I could see the snow for the first time and then seeing my dad – it had been a couple of years since I’d seen him so it was good seeing him again. I didn’t really understand it or really know about [being undocumented] until I got to about 7th grade, because I came here on a plane, so to me everything was fine. When you hear about illegals, it’s through the borders, crossing the border, coming here on ships, and we came on a plane. I knew my parents didn’t have papers and I knew we didn’t have physical paperwork, but when I thought of papers, I thought
“I think even if I do get papers, I feel like deep down I know that I’m still an immigrant , and I ‘m still going to have that carried around with me for the rest of my life.” -Andrea
they meant physical papers. I was too young to understand that it meant my status and who I was in the government’s eyes, and my brain couldn’t connect those things. When I got to 7th grade and a lot of my friends were talking about taking driver’s ed, I went up to my mom and I was like, “I want to do this, too.” And she’s like “Well, you can’t, because you can’t get a driver’s license.” And I was like, “Well why not? Why can’t I do this and they can?” and that was when they’re like, “Well, we don’t have our papers, we’re illegal, we came here with visas, but now it’s expired and it’s been expired for a long time, so you can’t work and you can’t have a driver’s license and you can’t have a Social Security number.” It was hard on me. I couldn’t really talk about it with anyone; I couldn’t really bring it up with anyone. It wasn’t until I got my DACA that I was actually able to talk about it, and it was safe for me to talk about because I couldn’t get deported. When I got accepted to college, I think that’s when I finally felt OK, because that’s when, even though I knew I was illegal, I knew I would maybe be able to have a future here, but I think a lot of times I just try and push it down and not think about it, just get through it. It wasn’t until when they started saying that it might be revoked and I wouldn’t be able to drive, I wouldn’t be able to work anymore, all these thoughts started coming back about how awful it was not being able to have papers, and it was something that I didn’t really have a choice in. I think even if I do get papers, I feel like deep down I know that I’m still an immigrant, and I’m still going to have that carried around with me for the rest of my life. Even if in the next three years I do get my papers, I don’t think that part of me is ever going to leave, just because it was such a big part of my life growing up. I’ve been lucky enough not to have anyone be racist or prejudiced to me. Growing up, I had a lot of friends that would be like, “Oh you’re so whitewashed,” and stuff like that. Just because I’ve decided to integrate into
the culture I grew up with doesn’t mean I don’t look into my roots, because I do. And it was frustrating because just because I’m wanting to be a part of the culture I grew up in doesn’t mean I’m whitewashed. There’s no such thing as being too American or too Latino, or too whatever; you are who you are, that’s all that matters. I think a lot of us Dreamers, we’re not just dreamers, but we are fighters because we’re fighting for our dreams to be able to have our papers. A lot of them are not doing it just for themselves, they’re doing it for their parents, their siblings and I am too. I want to have a better life because my parents took the risks for me to be here, and I want to show my sister that I wasn’t born here but I can still make it, so she can too.”
JAIR
Jair was born in Guanajuato, Mexico, but has spent most of his life in Milwaukee, Wisconsin. His family left as the area they were living in became too violent. “ We tried to cross three times but we couldn’t cross because I was too young and I always cried, I always made it difficult. Eventually she sent me with someone else. The people who helped us crossed the border were called coyotajes. What they did to us was they would drug the kids, they would give us medicine to fall asleep, that is how they crossed us across the river. They got us to fall asleep and they got us in an empty wheel, so they would just stuff us in and would float us. With me the water kind of splashed in my face, so that woke me up. With the other kids, they were too drugged, or in the case of the little girl [with my group], she probably just drowned. I didn’t get to see her after we crossed the river, I just remember hearing them scream, ‘we have to go, she’ll be fine.’ We ended up going through the streets and the desert. Every time we had to go through trucks so they could pick us up and go. There were a lot of gangs that knew where we were going and they would always stop by specifi-

EMILY BLOBAUM/ IOWA STATE DAILY Upon arriving in Ames, Jair found similarities between Milwaukee, Wisconsin, and Iowa State that made campus feel like home.
EMILY BLOBAUM/ IOWA STATE DAILY Jair’s memories of crossing the border into the United States from Mexico were not pleasant ones. On his family’s thrid attempt, he remembers being drugged, floating down the river in an empty wheel and sitting in a hot, cramped U-Haul truck.
cally to rape the women. That was their ticket to cross to the other side. When we were all inside the U-Haul truck, they stuff you inside with a bunch of other people and the only reason they stop is to get gasoline or to drop people off at their destination or if someone dies from heat exhaustion. They stuffed me and my friend Daniela into the corner and we kind of had to sit down and the only thing we had was a gallon of water that was already empty and a hole to breathe through. Daniela, she would always make fun of me and would always say that I was weak because I would always complain. I was thinking I had to toughen up and not complain, but I couldn’t because it was too hot and tiring being cramped in a little corner and I was just wondering ‘Oh how could she just lay there and sleep the whole time.’ I tried waking her up and the person that I was given to, she just told me that she was asleep and so I just let her be for the whole ride but I just thought that she was really strong. But when we got off, I realized that she was dead. When I see a bunch of trucks that are similar to that truck, I feel like the breath is being taken away from me. ——— I applied for DACA and it was a lot of money. I had to go through a lot of lawyers and I eventually got it after three or four months. It was a lot of money on top of the tuition I had to pay [for high school]. It hurt my family financially, we were not in a good financial stance before high school and when that happened it affected us even more. I really feel bad for the fact that my sisters they didn’t get the privileges I got even though they were born here because most of the money was spent on me. My sister couldn’t get into the high school she wanted because of money. ——— After DACA, I still realized what it meant
to be undocumented, it felt worse when Trump [announced he] was going to run. At first we thought it was a joke, but when [we] realized he might end up winning, that put a lot of stress on us. When he got elected the majority of [the students at] my school were Republicans. There were students that even made freshmen cry, they would tell them, ‘Hey, we’ll see you in Mexico.’ For me they would grab Trump stickers and stick them on our backs and one time they filled a whole car full of Trump stickers. It really hit me hard when it happened to me. [Around the same time] That’s when stuff started getting rough about the college process. That’s when [the Latino club] had a large meeting. Honestly, we all cried. We felt really hurt about what was going on. Throughout the college process, our counselor told all the DACA students to just settle for something less. In Wisconsin, going to a community college was frowned upon and that’s where she would tell us to go or take a gap year and work. She kind of discouraged me from applying, but one night I was like, ‘I don’t care, I’ve been taking risks all my life.’ I applied to all the schools she said I wasn’t going to get into. I got rejected from a lot of schools for being undocumented. They told me I couldn’t apply because I was undocumented or I had to pay $100,000 to be an international student. It was really hard picking a school. Iowa State was one of my options because of the architecture program is really good. I managed to raise enough money to go here, but now I’m self-providing, basically paying for my own rent, my own tuition. My parents are working hard themselves, they each have three jobs. My sister wants to get a job to help me pay for college. She is a sophomore in high school, I feel bad she has to think about that. I’m already stressing about money [to pay for college]. I always tell my friends I’m not leaving without a fight. I carry my whole
“It’s hell. It’s just really stressful, I can’t have fun in public spaces, every time I go out I cry. I cry about leaving my friends and [possibly] not being able to come back next semester.” -Jair family on my shoulders, I’m the one who’s supposed to get them out of the struggle that they’re going through and when I get out of college I have to go back and help them. ——— I’ve really made [Iowa State] my home. [Lake LaVerne] reminds me of the pond in front of the apartment I went to when I first arrived. Curtiss Hall reminds me of UW-Madison. I’ve made a home here and it kinda sucks that I’m being kicked out. Since I’ve made Iowa State my home, that’s where I made my comfort in when I feel everything is falling apart. I love taking classes here, sometimes I don’t sleep but that’s just what it’s like for a student in the design studies.Every time I do my homework I always bring a picture of my family and I always look at it and it is my motivation for when I want to sleep. There were times where I hadn’t eaten for two weeks straight. [Currently] I’m running out of food, usually my friends help me. They take me out to eat and I start crying, they don’t understand how much that means to me.
——— It’s really hard to talk to people here [at Iowa State]. When I talk to Americans, I feel really low, like I feel they’re in a higher standard and that I can’t talk to them because of who I am. I don’t feel as comfortable here as I felt in Milwaukee. Iowa State isn’t prepared for people that are undocumented and that was one of my goals coming here, come here and do community service, join a Latino club and I want to fundraise and make a scholarship for undocumented students. I want to create a scholarship for undocumented students going through financial struggles and give them the funds that they need and help them out because I know it’s hard for me. It’s hell. It’s just really stressful, I can’t have fun in public spaces, every time I go out I cry. I cry about leaving my friends and [possibly] not being able to come back next semester. My body is shutting down, I sometimes miss class not because I want to, but because of lack of sleep and stress I put onto myself. I don’t really like being myself, I wish I wasn’t in this position, I wish I could come to school and have fun.”

Getting rowdy at Outlaws COURTESY OF OUTLAWS BAR Patrons enjoy a game of pool and mug night at Outlaws. Mug night occurs on Thursday nights and offers a variety of deals for bar-goers who come with a mug.
BY SAVANNA.PARDEKOOPER @iowastatedaily.com
Outlaws, located at 2522 Chamberlain St., is known for being Ames country rock bar destination. The bar offers three different levels where patrons may find live country music, talented dancers and great drink specials.
“Outlaws is really the only country bar in Ames, so being out to hear live country music is always a treat. The fact that Outlaws actually gets live music is what sets them apart from everyone else,” said Joseph Gunnells, a current Iowa State
student. “Personally, I love dancing and country music so when I discovered this place I was hooked,” said one bar-goer. “My friends and I always end up coming to Outlaws whenever they have live music. DJ’s just aren’t as exciting as seeing people perform... and let’s be honest, live music is so much more fun to dance to,” enthused Adams. Gunnells explained that having all three levels of the bar open to customers allows Outlaws to
have a more inclusive and welcoming feel. “My friends and I always end up at Outlaws. It has an extremely laid back atmosphere that I appreciate after a long day,” said Gunnells. “It’s the type of bar where you can let your hair down and there aren’t any pretenses. At the end of the day we are all just here to have some fun and let off some steam.” With monthly live music, you can do just that. Outlaw’s next live performers are Adairs Run on Jan. 26, 2018, from 9 p.m. to 12 a.m.

Your weekend will be filled with harmony and peace, Aries. Recharge with your loved ones and enjoy your well-deserved break.
Taurus, you’re feeling rebellious. Head over to Outlaws on Chamberlain for a night of unruly fun!
Don’t deprive yourself of what makes you happy, Gemini! Indulging will only make your heart full. Go for it!
It’s in your nature to take things personally, Cancer. Someone close to you may say something that appears to be a jab at you on the surface. Take it as a meaningless comment and don’t dwell on it. With winter break around the corner, you may be wanting to slow down. Now is the time to work your hardest Leo! Your dedication will pay off. A new romance appears to be so perfect that you may feel unworthy, Virgo. There’s a reason this person admires you back... have more confidence!
You rarely stop working, Libra. So when you do have an opportunity to relax, your mind is crowded with things you need to do. Confide in a loved one and tell them how you’re feeling, they may be able to help.
You’re feeling stuck, Scorpio. A new hobby or interest will bring inspiration and joy to you if you stick with it.
A complete revamp of your space is in order, Sagittarius. Rearranging and decorating will motivate you to finish off the semester with endurance and determination. An estranged friend or family member has come back into your life. Be polite but cautious to them as they may have ulterior motives, Capricorn.
Someone close to you is overwhelmed, Aquarius. Take the weight off their shoulders by letting them know you’re there, whether it means buying a coffee or doing the dishes for them. It may be freezing outside, but a new romance is making you feel warm and fuzzy inside. Show them how you feel by planning a fun and unique date!

2) What type of flavor do you prefer to mix an alcoholic drink with?

A) At home or at a friends apartment B) At a house party C) At Outlaws
If you picked mostly A’s, you probably prefer to chase or mix your drink with a water flavoring mix. Mio, Crystal Light and other flavorings are a cheaper and healthier alternative to lemonade mixes or ones high in sugar content. You’re probably more health conscious and your hangovers won’t be as bad because you are also consuming water while drinking.
8) How would your friends describe you as a drinker? A) Health conscious B) Fun yet reserved C) Carefree and ready to get crazy
If you picked mostly B’s, you probably prefer to use Gatorade, teas and other sweet drinks. Although your hangovers won’t be awful, sugary drinks can really magnify a hangover. Try grabbing something with electrolytes to help prevent feeling gross the next day.
If you picked mostly C’s, you probably prefer to use Redbull, Monster, Coke and other drinks high in sugar and caffeine. Although the drinks give you a boost of energy, your hangovers will most likely be worse from all of the sugar. If you are looking for a lower calorie option, try some of the diet drinks these brands offer.

EDITORIAL
BY ISD EDITORIAL BOARD
COURTESY OF WIKIMEDIA COMMONS Sen. Al Franken is an American writer, comedian and politician and is currently under allegations of sexual assault and has made fun of the issue.
In 2017, why are we still asking if someone who reported being sexually assaulted was drinking or what they were wearing?
In 2017, why are we saying allegations of sexual misconduct from years ago are somehow fishy because of the timeline of when it was reported? In 2017, why are we still defending predators as good people and finding it hard to imagine they’d ever do that? Because, as far as we are concerned, none of that should matter. Despite what the survivor was wearing or drinking, it is still the perpetrator’s fault. Despite allegations being made years after misconduct, it is still the perpetrator’s fault. And despite finding it hard to imagine someone we know could do something so horrible, it is still the perpetrator’s fault. When discussing sexual assault and harassment, it is of the utmost importance that we don’t place any blame on those who are reporting. This doesn’t mean we don’t promote personal safety or bystander intervention — because
Why are we still blaming victims
we should. But first and foremost, as a society, we must make it understood the action of sexual misconduct itself is horrible and the person or persons who enacted the misconduct are to blame. We must make sure consent is understood. And we must make sure that by no means is it funny, as Sen. Al Franken must have thought it was, to make fun of sexual assault. President Donald Trump spoke out against Franken and the allegations he faces, on Twitter. Those tweets are, simply put, hypocritical and sick. The man who is the leader of our nation dismissed a tape of himself glorifying groping as “locker room talk.” What Franken did was wrong. What Trump did was wrong. What any perpetrator of rape, sexual assault or sexual harassment did was wrong. Last week, allegations of sexual misconduct surfaced about Charlie Rose, a well-known American broadcaster. His CBS colleagues responded in the best way you could to such a horrible situation. “Let me be very clear: There is no excuse for this alleged behavior. It is systematic and pervasive,” said Norah O’Donnell, who is a co-host of CBS This
Morning, which Rose was a part of before being suspended by CBS. “This has to end. This behavior is wrong. Period.” This is how we should respond to reports of sexual misconduct of any form. We should always place the blame on the action and the person or persons who conducted that action. Campaigns to look at: Iowa State Police’s Start By Believing campaign focuses on believing those who confide in you that they’ve been assaulted. The #MeToo movement showed, and is still showing, how widespread a problem this is. But, it’s also important to note not every person who has been harassed or assaulted spoke up. Don’t be That Guy is a campaign that seeks to inform about consent. The campaign’s page states, “typically, sexual assault awareness campaigns target potential victims/women by urging women to restrict their behavior...Women are, on a daily basis, taking remarkable steps to prevent victimization, and that targeting the behavior of victims is not only ineffective, but also contributes to how much they, the offender and the larger public (including law enforcement and justice system) blame women after the assault.”
LETTER
In defense of comedy, but not Franken BY ISAIAH BAKER Senior in political science
Al Franken was my hero. The operative word being “was.” I was proud of the work he did on behalf of Minnesotans — in particular, the fight he put up for marginalized groups including Native Americans, LGBTQ+ individuals and the economically disadvantaged. When I tore through his autobiography this past summer, I was impressed with the way he wrote about the provocative and offensive jokes he’d made in his past, and how he argued that satire presents a meaningful way to confront difficult issues. I completely agree with his definition of satire, and that’s why I can no longer call him my hero.
As a political science student working as a writing tutor, I have a unique vantage point on the crossover between rhetoric and political efficacy. Comedy — even dark comedy — presents
an engaging and personal platform on which people can connect in a relaxed environment. Making light of tough topics in the form of satire can transform the unapproachable into something palatable. But there is a line, and it’s not a blurry one. When he sexually harassed and assaulted a colleague, Sen. Franken was not engaging in satire — he was being manipulative, abusive and derogatory. Not only was what he did not funny, it also served no other purpose than to get a cheap laugh at the expense of another human being’s dignity. Al Franken was 55 years old when he assaulted Leeann Tweeden and had been a comedian for over 30 years. If he really knew what satire was, I’m damn sure he learned it before 2006. But that didn’t stop him. Finding out your heroes aren’t who you thought they were is not easy. And it’s definitely not funny.

VOLLEYBALL
Serving it right Izzy Enna finds her specialty BY TREVOR.HOLBROOK @iowastatedaily.com
With the regular season wrapped up, Iowa State volleyball has its eyes on postseason play. Postseason action ramps up the intensity in any sport, and volleyball is no different.
One of the most important facets of the game is serving. Obviously, if a team can steal a point off a service ace, it’s a big play. On the flip side, a serve that sails long or gets swallowed by the net is a deflating play for the serving team. Not only are service aces and errors important to a volleyball match, but quality serves that don’t result in aces are just as important. The goal of a serve isn’t always to snag an ace, but it’s important to get the receiving team out of system, giving the serving team a head start. The Cyclones began the season with a leak in their serving department. In the first 10 non-conference matches, Iowa State only managed 31 aces with 57 errors. In the last 10 matches, the Cyclones have upped those numbers with 60 aces and 91 errors. The increase in serving numbers probably is a result of the Cyclones being more aggressive behind the service line. Before the Texas match, coach Christy Johnson-Lynch talked about the need to take more serving risks against talented teams to give Iowa State an edge. An aggressive philosophy can increase service numbers, but Iowa State also needed players to convert the higher-risk serves. In the last 10 matches, the serving catalyst has been freshman defensive specialist Izzy Enna. “[Izzy Enna has] a great serve,” Johnson-Lynch said. “It’s a bullet. It goes over the tape, always pretty low. If you want to serve tough, there’s a couple ways to do that and one of them is serving very low trajectory and she does that.” Enna has been a game-changer for Johnson-Lynch and the Cyclones behind the service line. She currently has a team-high of 22 aces with 17 of those coming in the last 10 matches. Not only has Enna been effective with her serving, she’s also been efficient. Along with the 17 aces, Enna has minimized the service errors with only eight. Enna has built confidence in her serving, but her teammates have gained trust with her on the court. “[Izzy Enna is] very experienced,” said redshirt sophomore libero Hali Hillegas. “I think letting her know I trust her back there with me when she does play, I think that helps her a lot [and] boosts her confidence.” Enna placed herself at the top of Iowa State’s serving statistics, but the freshman has established herself as one of the top servers in the Big 12. In conference matches, Enna has 17 aces, ranking her second in the Big 12 behind West Virginia’s Payton Caffrey and her 29 aces. It’s worth noting that out of the top 10 servers in the Big 12, Enna has played the fewest amount of sets. Enna closed her regular season out with a statement. In Iowa State’s final road match, Enna had a career-high four aces in only three sets. Enna is the only Big 12 player this season to have four aces in a sweep. It’s no surprise that Iowa State’s serving production has increased with Enna’s production. Iowa State’s early-season serving struggles appear to correlate with Enna’s numbers as well. Enna’s serving has been on fire lately, but the freshman had a cold streak to begin her collegiate career. The Cyclones began the 2017 season with 10 non-conference matches. She saw action in a majority of those matches, playing in 32 of the 37 sets, but chipped in just two aces paired with eight service errors. “[Her serve is] what got her on the court,” Johnson-Lynch said. “She’s a great player, but her serve is pretty elite.” Enna’s strong serving has been changed throughout the course of her freshman season. Her serving struggled at the start of the season, so what’s been the key to the turnaround? Her approach. “Just getting that serve to float to where it just drops,” Enna said. “I think that’s the only key is not to hit it as hard as I can and just float it.” Enna began the season picking up playing time where she could find it. A couple months later, her serving is a luxury the Cyclones need in order to make a deep postseason run.
