GIVING TREE Christmas comes to less fortunate children of Ames, student involvement encouraged By Emelie.Knobloch @iowastatedaily.com

n Ames girl, only 10 years old, asked for a scarf, hat and glove set for Christmas. Because an ISU student or faculty member picked up the cardboard ornament hanging on a Christmas tree, she will get it. This year marks the 15th annual Giving Tree program hosted by YWCA Ames-ISU and the Faculty Senate at Iowa State. “We work with the Ames School District’s counselors,” said Angela Merrick, executive director of the YWCA Ames-ISU. “They provide us with wish lists of about 100 homeless children in Ames.” Merrick said the Giving Tree program provides these children with six gifts each. Sherri Angstrom, secretary for the senate, said the program has grown significantly in the 15 years it has been operating. “The first year of the program, we did just a few gifts per child,” Angstrom said. “The program started with just 30 children involved and now it is up to 100

children.” Angstrom said the program was initially started when the YMCA director, at the time, came to the faculty senate president where they agreed to partner together. Three years ago, the YMCA closed down and the YWCA AmesISU agreed to keep the program going, partnered with the senate as the YMCA was. The YWCA is a multicultural women’s organization. The senate represents the general faculty and shares governance of the university with the administration, according to their website. Angstrom said the total amount of gifts varies but is expected to be at least 600 gifts. “The program works by taking a wish list off one of the trees around campus,” Merrick said. “However, they were gone within the first week this year.” Several students have also gotten involved in the Giving Tree program in the past few years. “I gave to the Giving Tree last year,” said Kayla Carpenter, junior in child, adult and family services.”

Carpenter said the process was very easy and didn’t take a lot of extra time. “It was pretty simple,” Carpenter said. “I just grabbed a card from the tree in MacKay, ran to Target to buy the presents and brought them to Hamilton Hall.” Carpenter said she was very familiar with this type of program because of the ‘Angel Tree’ at her

Tuition, new engineering center up for approval

Local radio station must find new home

By Danielle.Ferguson @iowastatedaily.com Tuition rates for resident undergraduates could be locked at the 2014-15 rate if the Board of Regents votes for a third consecutive tuition freeze at the December meeting Wednesday. The board will also look at mandatory student fees, a new center for bioplastics and biocomposites, a million dollar computing cluster purchase and an efficiency review update at the meeting, telephonically originating from the Iowa State University Alumni Center. The board had originally proposed an increase of 1.75 percent in in-state undergraduate tuition, but concern about rising higher education costs presented by regent Larry McKibben caused other regents to also speak out. “The [student] debt at sixth in the nation is a social and economic negative for our state,” McKibben said at the Oct. 23 board meeting. “[It is important for] students to graduate without having a tremendous amount of debt, to be able to get married, have a family and maybe make a first down payment on a house

Radio station KURE is being asked to move out of Friley Hall after 65 years of residence. The Department of Residence has issued the station to move out by the summer of 2015. KURE originally started as a residence hall-only radio station, which played music through the water pipes. KURE now broadcasts to all of Ames, and events are open to both students and Ames community members, providing the DOR with the argument that the station is no longer suitable for a residence hall-only environment. “In my opinion it wasn’t very deep or complicated, it was ‘this is who you are let’s find a bet-

ter place for you,’” said Peter Englin, director of the DOR. “I saw a problem with this many non-residence students having access to the building on a regular basis. There is higher priority and obligation on our part to serve residence hall students with some of that space.” Some members of KURE may have been unaware the station was being kicked out of Friley until recently because of a miscommunication between old and new members, but Englin said the station has known about it for at least three years. “I don’t think the expectation was passed onto the new board that makes up KURE,” Englin said. “That’s what happened.” He wouldn’t say whether or

The American Psychological Association reports that a majority of college students procrastinate because it makes them more productive. Many psychologists believe that students procrastinate because they have self-doubt.

$9 app keeps students productive By Michaela.Ramm @iowastatedaily.com Why do it today when it can be done tomorrow? This is the life motto of a repeat procrastinator. Stop Procrastinating is a $9 application aimed to block the Internet on a user’s computer and promote productivity. It is compatible with Macs and Windows. Blocking Internet access prevents users from procrastinating on websites such as Facebook, Twitter and other distracting sites. Will Little, CEO of Stop Procrastinating, created the software a year ago. “People will always procrastinate and find distractions, but the computer is both a work and leisure tool,” Little said. “It is too easy to switch from work to browsing and so far, more distracting than anything else. In fact, work can become a distraction.” Little said the goal is to allow people to cut online distraction, so they can get more work done and concentrate better. Users can block the Internet by using the application through three different options. The first option allows users to block the Internet for a specific amount of time. However, users can access the internet before the time runs out, if they reboot their computer. Option two blocks the Internet from users for a certain amount of time. Users will not be able to go online until their chosen time is up. The third option allows users to remain connected to the Internet, but blocks specific websites such as

Facebook, Twitter or any other social media site indefinitely. Little said he came up with the idea after he struggled with getting work done. “I’m a writer and was writing a play, when I found myself being distracted by the Internet, reading emails and browsing the Internet,” Little said. “I couldn’t find any software to meet my needs so I created it myself.” Thousands of people have downloaded the software, Little said. Little’s largest target demographic is writers and college students. Drew Sprangers, senior in agricultural engineering, said he is guilty of procrastinating often. “It seems with every assignment I try to start as early as I can, but if I’m at home, the TV and my laptop’s right there. I turn that on instead,” Sprangers said. “It seems like I’ll have a whole day, but I’ll spend two hours actually doing what I need to do.” Sprangers said when it comes down to it, he can get his work done. It just may be a little closer to the deadline than what he is comfortable with. Emilee Mayer, sophomore in microbiology, said she has a problem procrastinating on a regular basis because of the Internet, despite the stress procrastination causes her. “It usually depends on what the project is,” Mayer said. “If it’s a really hard one or one that’s going to take a lot of time, I start it about halfway through the week. If it’s something I don’t think will take long, I usually do it the night before.” Mayer said she does

not think her procrastination has affected her grades at all. “It makes me have to think quickly,” Mayer said. “I don’t have to second guess everything, but I don’t know if that has something to do with it.” Mayer said she would be interested in using Stop Procrastinating but isn’t sure because of the price. Little said the price of the app should not be a problem because it was created to be affordable to everyone. Sprangers said he would be interested in the application as well but was also hesitant. Since he uses the internet for his assignments, it may not be as useful to him. “I think if I had that, I would probably use it for the book homework I had,” Sprangers said. “It would help cut down on random searching. I feel like it would help me keep focused on what I need to do.” Little said he has received plenty of positive feedback from his software. “People write saying they love a particular option, say option two and option three are big hits with people,” Little said. “Many people say it genuinely helps them study.” Jennifer Owens is the

director of student services for the College of Liberal Arts and Sciences, and has been advising students since 1998. She daily addresses students on campus who suffer from procrastination issues or poor academic success. Owens said as an adviser, she sees different reasons for an individual to procrastinate or get behind in a class. “Describing it just as procrastination is just kind of reaching the surface,” Owens said. “My thoughts are that many students don’t think about why they are in college. Because of that, they prioritize things in a way that is not beneficial to their academic progress.” Owens said if students would embrace learning rather than focus on other aspects of college, then she believes the work would not be put off. However, Owens said procrastination may not be causing a student to struggle in a class. Other commitments such as a part-time job or clubs can be a hindrance to academic success. Mental health can be an issue for some students. “There are a lot of students who are struggling with things like depression

“Overall, technology has been a positive thing in the way students can receive information,” Owens said. “It may have taken away some of the interactions between faculty and students, but I think it has allowed instructors to do more interesting things in the classroom.” Owens said Stop Procrastinating could be a good investment and would most likely be cheaper than a tutor or retaking a class all together. Little said his company’s software has been a success. “Many people who bought [the software] didn’t realize how much time they were wasting on the Internet, when they should have been working or studying,” Little said. “They are now getting a lot more done.” Little said his company is potentially looking to expand its software to other applications. Students interested in purchasing Stop Procrastinating, can learn more at stopprocrastinatingapp. com. Students who feel they are struggling in a class or need improvement with studying habits can make an appointment with an academic adviser in their specific college.

and anxiety,” Owens said. “We know that prevents them from making progress. The rigors of being a college student and being on your own can bring out issues that were maybe more contained at home.” Owens said students sometimes struggle with time management. This is particularly true for freshmen students. “Many freshmen come in thinking they can do things the same way they did them in high school,” Owens said. “That doesn’t work for most students.” Owens said the best way to help freshmen students study is by talking with them about their goals. Technology can have negative effects on students, Owens said. “Technology is definitely something that students waste their time on,” Owens said. “Having instant access to technology has changed the mindset of students that they can just do things later, and it will instantly happen. It has changed the way students approach things.” However, Owens said she believes there are some positives about technology. The internet has made it easier for instructors to communicate with students and receive feedback.

Social media usage affects work ethic By Emelie.Knobloch @iowastatedaily.com Past tweets, statuses and photos can either help or hinder students when it comes to searching for a job. As of January 2014, 74 percent of adults online use social networking sites, according to the Pew Research Internet Project. Of the 74 percent of adults using social networking sites, 89 percent of them were between the ages of 18 and 29. “I would say that social media has benefited my student employees,” said Brittney Rutherford, program coordinator for the Department of Residence and ISU Dining. The DOR hires hundreds of students across campus. “I don’t see a positive or a negative impact of social media,” Rutherford said. Rutherford said she understands today’s students have grown up with social media.

It’s simply what a lot of students are used to as means of communication, she said. According to the project, as of January 2014, 19 percent of online adults use Twitter, as well. “They [the student employees] are the ones who keep me informed on what social media platforms their peers are using and the types of things they prefer to do on each platform,” Rutherford said. Rutherford said when they receive feedback from customers on their Department of Residence or ISU Dining platforms they are able to have a conversation with the customer through social media. “Many times, this helps improve our service,” Rutherford said. As of September 2013, 71 percent of online adults use Facebook. “Social media has made the average college student’s attention span a lot shorter,” said Alexia Angton, graduate student in sociology. Angton said social me-

dia was created to get information out in a short time and in spatial increments. According to the Pew Research Internet project, between February 2005 and August 2006, usage of social networking sites among adults between the ages of 18 and 29 jumped from 9 percent to 49 percent. “It has made it harder for students to pay atten-

tion for longer amounts of time, such as in a class lecture,” Angton said. Angton said although she believes social media could be positive when used correctly, she believes it has negatively impacted students overall. About 500 million tweets are sent per day, according to Twitter. “It distracts students

from their education by causing them to want to check their Facebook, Twitter, Instagram, Snapchat, etc. instead of paying attention in class or focusing on their homework,” Angton said. There are 284 million monthly active Twitter users, and 80 percent of Twitter active users are on mobile devices, according

to the social media site. Angton said if students were more aware of the amount of time they spend on social media, they might consider cutting down on the amount of time they use it. “It is important for students to understand how much time they are spending on their social media accounts,” Angton said.

Students learn to ‘rent smart’ with new initiative By Molly.Willson @iowastatedaily.com Before signing a lease for next school year, the Government of Student Body wants students to know what they are truly signing up for. GSB senators handed out free water and pop Dec. 2 in the Memorial Union to inform students of the new Rent Smart Ames initiative. In conjunction with the city of Ames, GSB has created a website to help student tenants and city landlords find

common ground on renting issues. “Today is GSB’s initiative to promote the website to students,” said Zach Bauer, GSB member, city of Ames intern and creator of the website. The website has a variety of features, including a listing of rental units available in Ames, a complete guide from beginning the search for an apartment to moving out, rights and responsibilities of landlords and a list of links to help with any problems that may arise during tenancy.

Tenants can fill out a search form to refine a specific desired living arrangement, for example, a two bedroom, one bathroom apartment with a $500 to $750 rent range. “[The website] takes [renters] from the moment they decide to leave campus to the return of the security deposit when they move out, then everything in between,” Bauer said. “It tells them what to look for in a place, what places are available, what their lease should have and what their rights and responsibilities

are. Pretty much any question they should have, they can find it on the Rent Smart Ames website.” The idea for the project came about at last year’s joint City Council and GSB meeting. This year, Bauer and Melissa Mundt, assistant city manager, presented the website at the annual joint meeting. “At this stage, we are really just trying to get more landlords aware that they can list their properties and also let tenants or prospective tenants know that they can utilize the website if

they have questions about what their lease should have, if they have questions about move in and that sort of thing,” Bauer said. The project began as a way to help answer questions students and new residents of Ames have about renting in general and how they can find somewhere to live in the Ames community. “Being a renter myself, I knew the questions I had, and through GSB, I had a really good opportunity to engage students to see what kind of problems they found with their renting or student

legal services to see what issues students came to them with,” Bauer said. The new website is free and available to all users, student or tenant. “Landlords can list their properties for free. Tenants can even list their sublets for the summer or if they’re going to be gone for a semester, they can list their properties on there, too,” Bauer said. This is the first step in informing students on the website and the GSB plans to promote to the city of Ames as well.

Marston Hall overhaul helps original building stay updated By Erin.Weirup @iowastatedaily.com

WinterFest & Hot Chocolate at The Knoll Friday, December 5 3-6 p.m.

Iowa State First Lady Janet Leath ...

invites students, faculty and staff to drop by The Knoll for refreshments and a first-floor tour of the president’s home. Warm up ...

Marston Hall is often referred to as ‘the engineering building’ on campus. Originally, the building was dedicated as Engineering Hall in 1903 and wasn’t renamed Marston Hall — in honor of Anson Marston, Iowa State’s first dean of the College of Engineering — until 1947. Today, the building stands desolate and closed to the public due to renovations. There had been many minor improvements to the iconic building over the years, but the current project is the first major renovation since it’s completion in 1903. Before the renovations, half of the building’s mechanical systems were original to the 111-yearold building, and window air conditioners were being used in a quarter of the rooms. “Marston is one of the last of the iconic central campus buildings to have a major overhaul,” said Kerry Dixon, project manager of

the Marston renovation. “We had done some major work in Curtiss, Catt Hall, Beardshear, Morill Hall, and the older, limestone, major statement buildings on campus except for Marston Hall.” The finished project will house more classroom space and the College of Engineering’s student services and administrative offices. The updated building will also retain some of the original and familiar aspects of the building, such as the main entrance and the auditorium. The faculty and staff previously housed in the building have been scattered all over campus. “Moving out of the building was a difficult process,” Dixon said. “We had to get the departments moved before students went through classification to graduate and before orientation for the new students visiting campus.” With the anticipation of moving into the new building in the spring of 2016, students say they are excited to have a new and improved facility to use.

“By constantly renovating and updating facilities around campus, it lets students keep up with the growing technology and gives them the opportunity to compete in industry after graduation while also being able to add to an ever-changing tradition,” said Ryun Hobbs, a junior in aerospace engineering. The project is anticipated to meet the Leadership in Energy & Environmental Design Gold Standard. Dixon, who is also the coordinator of sustainability in design and construction, is working to make the building as efficient as possible. The new building should be 30 to 35 percent more efficient than a typical code-designed building on campus, Dixon said. Besides using sustainable materials with high recycled content, this project is also tracking construction waste management to come out with as little waste as possible. Dixon said the location of the building has made renovation difficult because of its lack of direct vehicle accessibility.

Iowa State plays a noticeable part in facilitating student activities through intramural sports. A plethora of activities are organized for any qualified college student to participate in. From table tennis to soccer, the list consists of 45 sports that students can compete to win the coveted intramural champion’s tshirt. “Students wanted to play sports and that is why intramurals began,” said Linda Marticke, program coordinator for the recreation services department, a department that was created in 1920 to help organize activities for students to participate in. There are probably a

variety of reasons as to why students want to participate, Marticke said. Some of them would include the fact that it is fun to play, it is fun to compete, it is a distraction and break from studying, it is a social activity to do with friends, it is a way to make new friends, it is a way to stay physically active and it is also a way to experience getting along and working with others. As of last year, more than 9,900 students fought to win the title and the t-shirt, which makes the games pretty competitive pretty quickly. This is why skill level divisions were set up to make the playing field as level as possible. “It is very important to the intramural coordinators to keep the games as fair as possible,” Marticke said. “However, student teams are allowed to pick the skill level that they feel is best for their team. We do the best we can with the information that we have and sometimes move teams to a different skill division than what they

signed up for.” Ocassionally, teams ‘underestimate’ their skill level and enter into a bracket against teams that are much less talented in the selected sport. Obviously that isn’t fair, and it also doesn’t make it much fun for the participants. It could be frustrating for those teams or individuals who are trying to enjoy some fun competitive play. Especially if an opponent who professes to be a beginner or only to have experienced the sport a few times, is actually playing like an expert and it is completely obvious they should be in a more difficult skill level. The good news is, not every intramural sport experiences as much of this frustration. Softball, broomball, flag football, volleyball, floor hockey, soccer, ice hockey, basketball, wrestling and dodgeball are the select few that have referees to judge the skill level during preliminary rounds. This would determine if a team were really as skilled or not as skilled as

they say they are. However, there are still sports that don’t have people monitoring the matches and watching out for those who don’t belong in a certain skill level. For all of the rest of the games supervisors are designated to keep the time and score, said Marticke, but the games are not officiated. As a result, skill levels are unwatched and the fairness of opponents isn’t strictly divided to create an evenly matched atmosphere. “The intramural program is always looking to improve,” Marticke said.“We evaluate the entire program every year and try and make any adjustments that we think would improve it. This year we have added the sport of tennis singles,” she said. It would be nice, if in the future, all intramural sports were monitored for skill levels. Having an even playing field makes the challenge to be champions even more competitive and more enjoyable.

Advocate peace to stop destruction By Destiny.Esaw @iowastatedaily.com

he release of the grand jury decision in the case against Darren Wilson resulted in one of the most stressful and important nights in a long time. The case of Michael Brown versus Darren Wilson also sparked a fire of injustice. Thousands waited eagerly to hear the jury decision. This decision was so difficult that the time of the revealing of the indictment changed. When the grand jury decision ruled that Wilson would not be indicted, police enforcement in the Ferguson area were prepared for the worst. As some of you know, for weeks there have been riots and protests day after day waiting for the announcement of the indictment and for justice to be served. Many citizens of Ferguson felt that failing to indict Wilson was unjust and began to break police cars, throw rocks and tear gas cans back at the police, according to CNN.

Ferguson police officers outfitted in riot gear prepare for continued protests on Aug. 13, following the shooting of 18-year-old Michael Brown on the night of Aug 9.

This within itself is calls for a show of strength. Strength to not blame the other race because not all of the whites in the community are racist (not even all the police agreed with Darren Wilson) and not all black people are criminals. “We must respect that this is a law in this nation,“ said President Barack Obama. “And

we have to go by the rules. We need to embrace changes and move things forward instead of engaging in disruptive behavior.” President Obama promises to help the Ferguson area and work with people who want to be constructive and productive. Cleaning up the destroyed areas of Ferguson

and spreading around ideas and discussions to help promote good and productive behaviors is something that the community of Ferguson should be participating in. With time, Ferguson citizens will see, especially when the president comes down to help side by side, hand in hand to help rebuild their community and build their hope and their strength to move on. I feel the best way to get my point across is through a song by Michael Jackson, “If you wanna make the world a better place, take a look at yourself, and then make a change!” If Ferguson would consider peaceful protest and working toward making a change, rather than perpetuating crime and rioting, that change will come quicker. Instead of disruptive protesting, and instead of blaming one another, how about we all stand together as one and make this change as one? It is the only way we will come out of this and move forward as a nation.

As temperatures drop lower than motivation to do much of anything this time of year, our CyMail accounts are once again filling with the seemingly dreaded course evaluations. Of course they flood you all at once, making your inbox rise from zero unread message — or 1,432 unread — to five or six, depending on your course credit. The connotation that comes with course evaluations is overwhelmingly negative when presented to students. Although most take less than two minutes to fill out, the group consensus is that they are pointless and unnecessary. This is simply not the case. These evaluations help professors and lecturers understand what is coming across effectively and what is getting lost during the lectures and classes. In short of sounding cliche, they’re an essential, yet optional, part of the courses you’re taking. The university can help mend part of the problem by finding a more effective way to get the feedback it desires from the students. A potential fix is simply making the evaluations mandatory. While running the risk of getting a false or half-done answer, evaluations can be done during the meeting time of the final exam or in the final class period before finals week. For students, we can be more accepting and realistic with what the evaluations actually do. First of all, they can pave the way for better education for our peers in future classes and lectures. Take the example of having a really poor educator for a semester. You disliked how the material was presented — not because they failed you or because you slacked off — and felt there was a group consensus that there is a better way to learn in that specific environment. While the semester has come to a close for you, you still have an opportunity to make a difference for your future classmates. The similar example to that would be paving the way for better education for incoming freshmen classes. With little to no experience of a college setting classroom, you can personally provide a better learning environment for them. In a sea of nearly 35,000 students, we have to, in a way, look out for one another. It’s easy to hate on course evaluations. It might be “the cool thing to do.” When one of your roommates drops the infamous “course evals are out,” you can easily sigh and move on with your life, making no difference at all. But as students, we have a small but unique way to better our university. With direct impact, departments will listen to our voices in these course evaluations. We have a chance to help one another out in future classes by letting these educators know what is working and what isn’t, with majority voice. While you wait for that pot of coffee to brew or for your Easy Mac to finish cooking in the microwave, open up a course evaluation and enact change at Iowa State. Let your opinion be heard.

tree,” Carpenter said. Carpenter said she has seen the kind of difference it makes to families that are caught in a tough situation. “[The angel tree] helped the parents that couldn’t afford to give their children Christmas presents,” Carpenter said. “That would be a pretty horrible situation to be in.” Carpenter said she knew of a family back home whose father was overseas with the military.

REGENTS p1 Additional topics to look for: TIER update Regent Larry McKibben and Mark Braun, Transparent Inclusive Efficiency Review Transformation project manager, will give an update on the efficiency review study. At the Nov. 14 telephonic meeting, the board unanimously approved the eight administrative business cases that will change the structures of human resources, finance, facilities and information technology, which could result in the loss of more than 200 jobs across the three regent universities. The universities are researching how to implement some of the cases themselves and will develop methods to present. With increasing enrollment, however, Iowa State’s methods may vary from methods at the universities of Iowa and Northern Iowa.

KURE p1 not there was a miscommunication. “When we were first told to move out they gave us no options,” said Owen Ballard, KURE’s operations director and senior in biology. “They weren’t offering us any help, though they have since offered to assist us financially, but it was essentially up to us to figure out where to relocate.” Since then, Hamilton Hall has been the one main contender for the new studio. “We decided to look for places to go that would make sense and that led us to the Greenlee School of Journalism,” Ballard said. According to Ballard, with the potential jump to Greenlee, the KURE board hopes to bring back the news department and has already filled the news director position.

“The family was struggling,” Carpenter said. “The angel tree made a huge difference for them that year.” Carpenter said ISU students and faculty should try to participate if they can because it is easy to do and means a lot to children involved. “You could see how happy the kids were when they were describing what they got from Santa that year,” Carpenter said. The trees are placed around campus around Nov. 16 each year.

Merrick said students could still get involved in the program by dropping off toilet paper, detergent and other toiletry items at one of the locations. “There is an incredible amount of generosity around campus,” Merrick said. For students that selected a wish list or want to be involved by giving toiletry items, they may drop off the item, unwrapped, to one of the assigned locations by Wednesday. The assigned locations

include 103 Lab of Mechanics, 2101 Agronomy Hall, the Christmas tree in Veterinary Medicine, 101 Hamilton Hall or 306 MacKay Hall. Cash donations are also accepted. Cash or checks, made payable to YWCA Ames-ISU, can be delivered to the Y’s office at C1102A Knapp-Storms Commons. For additional information about the Giving Tree program, you may contact the YWCA at 515294-1663.

The board office released a University of Iowa early retirement initiative to aid with the downsizing in university departments. The item is not up for board approval. Warren Madden, senior vice president of business and finance, said Iowa State has not developed early retirement phase plans because the increasing enrollment may provide opportunities to transfer people to different positions. But nothing has been decided, he said, because the board is not far enough along in the implementation process. New center for bioplastics and biocomposites Iowa State is requesting approval to establish a new center to develop high value biobased products from agricultural feedstocks. The Center for Bioplastics and Biocomposites would be in the Center for Crops Utilization Research and a National Science Foundation Industry

and University Cooperative Research Center. The NSF would fund administrative costs, and industry funds would then support the research. The center, also known as CB2, is a collaborative effort between biocomposite and engineering research teams at Iowa State, University of Massachusetts Lowell and Washington State University, with Iowa State as the lead research institution. The center’s goal is to develop knowledge of agricultural feedstock products, such as plastics, coatings, adhesives and composites, that are compatible with current industrial manufacturing systems to promote sustainability. David Grewell, professor of agricultural and biosystems engineering, will serve as the director of the center if the board approves. Equipment purchase Iowa State University is now requesting to pur-

chase a High Performance Computing Cluster for $1,712,902. Funding will be provided from multiple sources including: $1,265,802 from college/general $339,600 from departmental/foundation $107,500 from research/sponsored The universities have to seek approval for purchases more than $1 million. The money trail: capital improvement transactions A $3.3 million budget for a project to renovate Larch Hall similar to how Willow Hall was renovated last year is up for approval. Construction of a new residence hall east of Buchanan is also up for board approval. The $49,500,000 project would create about 700 beds and hall community and support spaces. Anyone can attend the meeting from 1 to 3 p.m. at the Alumni Center or listen live online at regents.iowa. gov.

The Greenlee School faculty are scheduled to discuss the idea Friday and are ready to hear what KURE has to say before deciding whether or no they will be willing to house the station in Hamilton. “Throughout this whole mess of moving out of Friley, Pete [Englin] told us that we might have to downgrade, not only spacewise but programmingwise as well,” Ballard said. “However, our board discussed and decided to actually expand both, if not space-wise, definitely our programming.” Though Melissa Sheret, DJ for KURE and senior in event management, said she prefers music programs, she said she thinks adding news to the show will bring more people to the station overall. Caleb Hansen, another DJ for KURE and senior in biology, said adding a show

in a podcast style could bring even more listeners in. “If we have the talent here at Iowa State, it would add a lot to the show,” Hansen said. Another potential benefit of moving out of Friley would be longer access to the building. Hansen said getting into Friley has always been problematic and hopes the possible move to Hamilton would keep doors open longer, or DJs would be given special access. “Some people want to do summer shows, and it’s always been impossible because no one lives here in Friley during the summer. I’m not sure, if we get into Hamilton, if they’ll give us little swipe cards to access [the building] whenever or not,” Hansen said. As for the future of the Friley space, Englin said the DOR plans to talk to hall

students and government about what they want done with the newly vacated space. He said the space will probably end up being used more as study space or meeting areas for the students. “We are likely committing for next year to use dens for the full year. We have other commons spaces than just those dens so students would still have somewhere to go, unlike in places like Helser Hall,” he said. The extra space would be welcomed, he said, because Friley’s dens would be unusable for a full year. Ballard predicts the move to be ultimately successful and benefical for both Friley Hall and KURE, and his team agrees. “Moving is annoying,” Hansen said. “But once we get it done we will be better for it.”
