“Amigos,” a student Mariachi band, formed during the fall 2014 semester at Noche de Cultura, an event hosted by the Latino Heritage Committee, but the organization hasn’t yet been officially established.

SPREADING CULTURE Mariachi club arises at ISU, welcomes new members

By Berenice.Liborio @iowastatedaily.com

tephanie Caceres has mariachi fever. Caceres, junior in elementary education, is part of a new club on campus that hopes to inspire others to be accepting of mariachi tunes and see the world differently through this type of music. The idea started two years ago with three mariachi feverinfected students. It wasn’t until now that they got the courage to actually start to get other students involved. For Caceres, the club is a continuation from her high school mariachi days. The college club formation started with Irma Tello’s Facebook post. “I remember seeing the status,” Caceres, who is also the communication chair for the

club, said. “I got a message and it said, ‘Hey guys, I want to start a mariachi [club]. Let’s start a mariachi!’ I had that mariachi fever so I was like, ‘heck yeah, I’ll do whatever!’ and I know she really reached out to people and [said] we should do this.” The club formed fall 2014 semester at Noche de Cultura, an event hosted by Latino Heritage Committee, but the organization hasn’t yet been established. The group got an adviser — Adolfo CarrilloCabello, world languages and cultures lecturer — last week and just needs to finish up a few application processes before being recognized as an official organization. “We want [to] benefit from being a recognized organization like reserving rooms in the Music Hall, getting support from [Government of the Student Body] for instruments we can’t

afford, to buy the mariachi outfits,. We want to see if Iowa State will support a mariachi band,” said Ricky Corona, president of the club. The mariachi members said they are excited about starting this organization and getting the chance to play their traditional music to the students, faculty and staff at Iowa State University. “There’s a lot of excitement. Everybody just really wants to join the group and start playing beautiful music with each other. It’s the traditional aspect too and expressing the passion we have for music and working with other people and spreading our culture,” said Cindy Tello, sophomore in kinesiology and pre-physical therapy and the club’s secretary. Corona, senior in civil engineering, said anyone who loves music would love to hear maria-

chi. All the mariachi members got together because they love music, especially something that’s within their culture. Mariachi bands consist of at least two violins, two trumpets, one Spanish guitar, one vihuela and one guitarron and can sometimes reach 20 members. The Iowa State mariachi organization consist of 13 members. They have four violinists, two guitarists, two singers and one person playing the vihuela. A vihuela is a Mexican guitar-like string instrument from the 19th century and is mostly played in mariachi groups. Irma Tello plays the violin and Cindy Tello plays the trumpet. For the Tello family, music has been around their whole lives. Irma and Cindy got involved in music from their grandparents, parents and

uncles. They started playing their instruments in the fourth grade because their older sister and brother joined orchestra and they wanted to do the same. Irma has been playing for 12 years and Cindy has for about 10 years. Caceres plays the guitar and Corona plays the vihuela. Corona taught himself how to play the vihuela at the age of 12. The group members have learned about five to six songs within a semesters worth of practice. They learned “La Bamba” in one night to prove to themselves how determined they are. The ISU mariachi group will be open to any organization that wants to contact them to perform for an event. The point of the organization is to not sep-

Iowa State tries to power Cadets visit Pi Kappa Theta, campus sustainablity present on how to prevent By Jonathan.Findlay @iowastatedaily.com

As the frigid Iowa winter winds pierce through ISU students’ heavy coats, they probably aren’t thinking about how that same wind helps provide power to the ISU campus. Relief comes quickly as students hustle into a warm building, without a thought as to the source of where that warmth comes, but just grateful to feel their faces again. Where, then, does this warmth come from? All the heating, cooling and electricity on campus is provided by the power plant on the east end of campus. In fact, half of the energy used on campus is in the form of steam for heating, said Jeff Witt, the power plant’s utilities director. Using steam to provide energy for campus gives flexibility. Steam can be used to drive turbines for electricity production then reused to heat buildings. Steam can also be used to cool buildings by running the compressors that cool the air in campus buildings. This dual-use process is known as cogeneration and would run at 33 to 35 percent efficiency in a conventional power plant. Iowa State’s power

plant, however, runs this process at 60 percent efficiency. Energy conservation efforts on campus and improved efficiency using the cogeneration process combined helped cause an 8 percent drop in campus energy usage, from roughly 3.8 million British thermal units, or 4 billion joules in 2008 to 3.5 million British thermal units, or 3.7 billion joules last year. The same cold wind that drives people indoors also drives the windmill located just north of the power plant. This windmill, along with the electricity purchased from four other windmills in Northeast Story County, provide a little more than 7 percent of Iowa State’s electricity needs. Sustainable electrical production is still a new and expensive field compared to established methods like burning fossil fuels. The use of fossil fuels may not be sustainable, but Iowa State is making strides in different ways to lessen its carbon footprint and become more sustainable. For example, Iowa State uses more than 50 solar-powered trash compactors on campus that reduce garbage pickup from once per day to once per

sexual assault, harrassment

By Kelly.McGowan @iowastatedaily.com She was dizzy and light headed. She slurred her words. Her friends had left the bar. She accepted a ride home from a guy she doesn’t know well. This was the beginning of one scenario that two Army ROTC cadets posed to members of Phi Theta Kappa fraternity at a sexual assault and harassment prevention training session they led Monday. In the basement of the fraternity house, Jessica Bales, senior in public relations, and Evan Ireland, senior in supply chain management, stood in front of 19 men. The two are leaders in Cadets Against Sexual Harassment/Assault, a cadet-led education, response and prevention program. Behind them, a plywood board spray painted with Greek letters leaned against the wall and a TV displayed their presentation slides. They defined sexual misconduct, assault, abuse and harassment. Then they defined consent. “Who in here has a sister?”

Ireland said. About half of the audience raised their hands. Ireland hopes they would stand up to protect each other’s loved ones from a dangerous situation like this, he said. The presentation came after a suggestion from the fraternity’s alumni at a recent meeting. Jordan Donner, senior in in chemical engineering, the executive vice president and risk management chair of Phi Theta Kappa, ran with the idea. He contacted Bales, a friend of his from high school, whom he knew worked with sexual assault and harassment prevention. “Hopefully it starts with an impact here,” Donner said. “And guys can transmit that to other guys they meet and it becomes not just one section of the community’s problem, but something everyone is aware of.” Six sexual assaults have been reported to the Iowa State Police Division this academic year, according to their daily crime log. It made Bales uncomfortable knowing she was in an environment where this happens, she said. She knew people who were

sexually assaulted and saw harassment happen in her Army basic training. “After being with your friends going through that, it made it real,” Bales said. People need to know what sexual harassment is and how to stop someone else or themselves, Donner said. Hearing the information from ROTC cadets helped the members take the message seriously because they are students with slightly more authority, Donner said. “Going through ROTC kind of gives you more respect,” he said. “It’s a good position to learn from.” Cadets at West Point Military Academy started CASH/A. Iowa State Army ROTC leaders learned about the program and introduced it at Iowa State last semester. The program designates a male and a female cadet from each grade as a trusted contact for ROTC members to ask questions, report concerns or incidents and receive advice and resources from.

NEWS Thefts are down but still evident

Tuesday, Feb. 17, 2015

By Isabel.Gottlieb @iowastatedaily.com Decreasing reports of theft on campus may be a result of educating students on how to protect their belongings. Last year, Iowa State had the lowest numbers of thefts since 2010, according to ISU Police crime statistics. Last month, there were only 10 thefts on campus, compared to an average of 15 thefts in January during the past three years. Peter Englin, director for the Department of Residence, said most crime around campus occurs because people take advantage of opportunities to steal. Most of the items stolen are bikes, backpacks, books and other items students leave unattended that can be easily picked up, taken, and either used or easily sold, Englin said. “We’re fortunate that we live in a community where not much theft occurs,” Englin said. “Most of the theft that occurs is usually opportunistic stealing. If things are left unattended, someone can just walk by, pick it up and take it.” The ISU Police Department has been reaching out to the student body to create awareness about the possibility of theft. Officers speak at freshman orientation and visit residence halls to talk to students and give advice to avoid being a target of theft. ISU police officers urge students to report theft because the department has the full power to detain, investigate and arrest, according to the Iowa State Department of Public Safety. If students don’t report theft, there’s

little chance of recovery, Englin said. Anthony Greiter, ISU police officer, said students should use common sense, such as locking their door and not leaving items out and unattended. Thefts increase during Dead Week and around school breaks because students are preoccupied and don’t think about safety. Carrie Jacobs, captain of criminal investigations for ISU Police, said theft from vehicles also rises before and after school breaks because students are busy moving their belongings from their residences to their cars, often leaving cars full of valuable items unlocked. Jacobs said she tells students to think of the simple procedures they can take to prevent theft. “You want to be aware of your surroundings. If something seems suspicious, report it.” Jacobs says. “You never know what you could be preventing.” Suspicious behavior could be anything from an unfamiliar person in a residence hall to someone examining bike racks to see if any bikes were left unlocked. “Dorms are a community and students know who belongs where,” Englin said. “But a lot of our students will leave and not lock their door. Just simply reminding students to lock their doors can go a long way in preventing opportunistic theft.” As promising as the numbers look, theft will always be an issue on a college campus, Greiter said. However, if students continue to be aware of the risk of theft, rates of theft could continue to decline in the future.

Taylor Mankle/Iowa State Daily

Iowa State’s reported thefts have been the lowest since 2010. However, the ISU Police Department warns students to remain careful with their possesions and recommends locking your doors and not leaving valuable items in vunerable locations.

Agricultural industry is a wide open field By Allison.Luety @iowastatedaily.com Summer internships are an integral part of students’ experience at Iowa State. Employers rave about the real-life experience students gain through shortterm employment prior to graduation. Laura Underwood, communications specialist at Farmers Cooperative Company, points out the benefits of internships. “It gives you knowledge and experience,” Underwood said. “It gives you the ability to not only network with the company you work for, but their associates, vendors [and] farmers they interact with. You’re really able to grow as an individual rather than books and classes.”

Katie Birchfield, recruiting specialist for Seaboard Foods, realizes the importance of connections, especially in the agricultural industry. “I actually do not have an agriculture background. I did not go to school at a land grant university. So how in the world did I end up in agriculture?” Birchfield asked. “It’s all about who I know.” Internships provide great contacts for students, especially when looking for jobs. In order to obtain an internship without previous intern experience, Birchfield suggested getting involved on campus. “One thing I love to see is if someone has been working and going to school,” Birchfield said. “That’s huge. Through those experiences you learn

what you want to do.” Ellen Hines, human resources manager at ALMACO, encourages students to show excitement about the internship they want. “People get excited about that and they might even forgive some skill requirements if someone’s enthusiastic,” Hines said. Hines also recommended that freshmen and sophomores attend the career fair if only to show interest in future employment. “We remember [students from the past],” Hines said. “People like me are here every year for the career fair.” Hines encouraged students to be confident at the career fair, with a firm handshake and genuine smile. “We notice when people walk past the booth five

times and then approach us,” Hines said. Underwood, ISU College of Agriculture and Life Sciences graduate, believes that the Ag Career Day is one of the more inviting career fairs on campus. “As an employer of this company, we are passionate about the next generation; the next generation of talent and farmers,” Underwood said. “We want to see you

guys as students succeed. I say that on behalf of [Farmers Cooperative] but the whole industry.” The door is wide open in the agricultural industry, with growing diverse opportunities. “Whatever you want to do in agriculture right now, you can do it,” Underwood said. “It’s amazing to think how things have changed since I left ISU a couple of

years ago.” Underwood suggested that the Ag Career Day is special because so many ISU graduates are recruiting ISU students. “[The] College of Agriculture and Life Sciences career fair has to be one of the most inviting career fairs,” Underwood said. “So many of us are ISU alumni. I look around here and see a lot of my classmates.”

Patel joins first district congressional race By Alex.Hanson @iowastatedaily.com Ravi Patel, a small business owner and entrepreneur from Cedar Rapids, has decided to jump into the race for Congress in Iowa’s first district. Patel, a Democrat, is looking to unseat Republican U.S. Rep. Rod Blum, who was elected last November and is currently serving his first term in Congress.

“I am not a politician. I am a pro-growth progressive,” Patel said in a press release announcing his campaign Monday morning. “I have a track record of growing businesses that give back to their communities and provide goodpaying jobs that Iowans need.” The release said Patel’s campaign would focus on “broadening economic opportunity for Iowa families.” “Problems that chal-

lenge all of us require solutions that include all of us,” Patel said. “It is my hope that my candidacy will inspire the kinds of conversations our political system deserves. We need a fresh perspective, we need new leadership and we need innovative thinkers who are genuinely interested in seeing our country succeed.” The announcement comes just more than a month after Cedar Rapids Council Member Monica Vernon, who ran unsuc-

cessfully for Lieutenant Governor with former state Sen. Jack Hatch in the 2014 gubernatorial elections, announced she would run for the seat, as well. The first district, which includes most of northeastern Iowa, is a swing district that Obama won in the 2012 presidential election, but Blum was able to narrowly win in the 2014 midterm elections. “Right now, America is experiencing the dawn of the New Economy. For

us to continue our success, we need a compassionate agenda for Iowa’s working families. This means we must stand up for pay equity, invest heavily in a robust education system and work toward meaningful reforms to our immigration system,” Patel said, mentioning some themes voters will see during his campaign. Patel is the president of Hawkeye Hotels, which houses its corporate headquarters in Patel’s home-

town of Burlington and operates hotels in 16 different states. Patel serves on the Kirkwood College Hospitality Advisory Board, the University of Iowa College of Business Alumni Board and the State of Iowa Hospitality and Tourism Committee. Patel, who is only 29, graduated from the University of Iowa with a degree in Business Management and a certificate in Entrepreneurship.

Preparations are set in place for winter road repair, safety By Audra.Kincart @iowastatedaily.com Even after the city of Ames clears roadways of snow and ice all winter long, the city must deal with the damage to paved streets from the inclement weather in the spring. Public Works for the city of Ames goes to the City Council once a year with a capital improvements plan to improve the worst of the worst streets. ‘We come back with proposed street locations for reconstruction within our budget,” said Rudy Koester, civil engineer for the city of Ames. In order to prepare this plan, city employees “review the historical data on the street, do visual inspection of the street, pull cores and discuss with our maintenance crews about what are they seeing out there for issues,” Koester said.

This system ensures the infrastructure in Ames can remain updated, however sometimes sidewalks can be even worse than the roads. “After the last big snow, it was pretty icy and pretty snowy, especially coming into our apartment,” said Kevin Hughes, junior in athletic training and Campustown resident. Hughes also said the snow and ice was still bad for a week after the storm and his roommate even fell on the stairs leading to their apartment. Once it has snowed, tenants and owners have 10 daylight hours to remove snow from their sidewalks with a four-foot-wide clearing. Tenants should read their lease to see whose job it is to clear the sidewalk. If someone reports a sidewalk, the owner has 24 hours to clear it. After 24 hours with uncleared sidewalk, city

employees will remove the snow from the sidewalk and charge the owner anywhere from $90 to $150 for the service. However, students on campus have an opportunity to improve sidewalk conditions with the Government of Student Body safety walk. On the safety walk, which was last held in the fall of 2014, students walked around Campustown to try and find potentially hazardous areas. “I think it’s a great idea because they also look for possible danger spots,” Betcher said. Ames residents are encouraged to report problem spots and potholes on roads to the city. When snow levels reach two inches or more, Ames residents parked on main roads should consider moving their cars to avoid getting ticketed or towed. When a snow ordi-

nance is put into effect, the announcement will be made via the city of Ames website and on Des Moines TV channels 5, 8 and 13, as well as the local Ames channel 12. “The city of Ames staff has been acculturated with putting Ames citizens as a high priority,” said Councilwoman Gloria Betcher. City officials try to have roads cleared within 16 hours of the storm, but more specifically at target times of 7 a.m. or 5 p.m., depending on the time of the storm. The order of snow cleared includes main roads — such as Lincoln Way, Duff Avenue and Grand Avenue — residential streets, parking lots, sidewalks, some bike paths and finally, alleyways. Vehicles that are not located on a snow route should still be moved within 48 hours of when the snow ordinance was put into effect.

Great Hall to provide free documentary screening of Japanese-American war hero By Matthew.Rezab @iowastatedaily.com An award winning documentarian will be in the Great Hall on Tuesday evening to screen her film “Honor and Sacrifice,” the story of Roy Matsumoto, a Japanese-American man who enlisted in the U.S. military while detained in an internment camp during World War II. After the 7 p.m. screening, a roundtable discussion will feature one of the producers, Lucy Ostrander, Jane Dusselier, director of the Asian American Studies Program, Neil Nakadate, Professor Emeritus of English and Grace Amemiya, an Ames resident and former internee. “A lot of the issues that are revealed in the stories of one group, we still see today as they apply to new groups of immigrants,” Nakadate said. The sometimes stereotypical treatment of Ameri-

can minorities is a theme that reoccurs in the American experience, he said. Matsumoto’s parents and sisters were living in their family’s ancestral home in Hiroshima, Japan, when war broke out. Matsumoto became a hero after he saved his battalion, which was surrounded by Japanese forces in the Burmese jungle. When Matsumoto was sent to postwar Japan, he found family members still alive in Hiroshima despite the devastation from the nuclear attack. The story is told by Roy’s daughter Karen as she discovers her father’s work in military intelligence, kept secret for 50 years. The film uses archival footage and family photographs to depict the Matsumoto family’s experience and the struggles JapaneseAmerican soldiers went through during and after the war. “Honor and Sacrifice”

was recently awarded the prestigious Erik Barnouw Award from the Organization of American Historians for outstanding programming in documentary film concerned with American history, as well as the History In Progress Award from the American Association for State and Local History. American internment camps during the Second World War have been a topic of particular interest to Ostrander. Her documentary “Fumiko Hayashida: The Woman Behind the Symbol” is a portrait of

Fumiko Hayashida, whose 1942 photograph has become a symbol of Japanese- American internment. Originally designed as a short project, Ostrander transformed her creation into a full-length film featuring footage of 97-yearold Fumiko and daughter Natalie’s pilgrimage to the original Minidoka concentration camp in Idaho. The screening and discussion is considered a Day of Remembrance Event and part of the Iowa State Lecture Series. Admission is free.

Marijuana should be a choice

The German-dominated European Union and the Russian Federation are both trying to gain control of Ukrain. Columnist Rogers believes Russia has the right to fight for expansion without Western interference.

In defense of Russia

Western reaction to Ukrainian revolution has flaws By Clay.Rogers @iowastatedaily.com

he crack of rifles can once again be heard along the blood-soaked shore of the Black Sea. Last winter, a violent mob overran the capital of Ukraine. The rabble killed 20 police officers and ousted an elected president, in violation of the Ukrainian Constitution. The terrible war that resulted from this revolution has already killed 5,000 people. This was the “Euromaidan” movement, hailed by western media as a victory for democracy. The event that triggered the putsch in Kiev was President Viktor Yanukovych’s refusal to sign the “Ukraine – European Union Association Agreement.” The treaty required, among other things, that Ukraine begin converging its economy, legislature and borders with the European Union. Americans have been told again and again that this is a battle between freedom and oppression. Why then are these Ukrainian freedom fighters so excited to merge their nation with a European super state? Ukraine is merely shedding one empire to be gulped up by another. What’s really occurring in Ukraine is a struggle between two power blocks — the German dominated European Union and the Russian Federation. The European Union is seeking to extend its border across the Dnieper River. In pursuit of this goal, the European Union supported the Euromaidan movement. After the rabble was victorious at the siege of Kiev, the Russians invaded Crimea to secure their strategic interests. Most news outlets seek to portray Russia as the aggressor. It would seem,

however, that the true aggression is from the West. Ukraine is independent only because of the anomalous circumstances of the Cold War. When the Soviet Union fell, President George Bush the Elder imposed very similar borders upon Russia to which Kaiser Wilhelm imposed on the country in 1918. The countries that were created in the 1990s are independent only because of a spasm of Russian weakness. That period is now over. Many Russians today, including Putin, believe that Ukraine, Belarus, Latvia and Estonia should return to the motherland. Vladimir Putin assumes the role of arch villain in our propaganda. The president of Russia is indeed a gangster, but is he acting irrationally? Putin sees a hostile Europe pushing its border right up to the frontier of the Rus. The Westerners bring the anti-Russian alliance known as NATO. The warm water port of Sevastopol, which has belonged to Russia since Catherine the Great, almost fell into the clutches of NATO. How could any Russian leader not react? An equivalent could be drawn between the United States and Panama. Had the Russians sent agitators to overthrow the elected government of Panama, seize the canal and expel American military personnel, then Obama would have reacted in much the same way. Vladimir Putin is hated for what he isn’t, not for what he is. He is not a globalist, which earns him disdain from both American neocons and leftwingers alike. He is not a pushover in world affairs, which makes him an automatic enemy of our State Department. He does not believe in the dogmas of free trade, global warming

and open borders. The fact that he’s a Christian makes him the ideological enemy of Western Europe’s nihilistic atheism. In short, Putin belongs to the Europe of Victoria and Bismarck, not of Cameron and Hollande. There’s much to be said in favor of Putin and the Russians. Before we set out on our moronic intervention in Libya, which turned that country into a chaotic inferno, we had been warned by one man. His name was Putin. The only world leader to oppose Barack Obama and David Cameron in aiding the Syrian rebels, whom we now know as ISIS, was that same KGB Colonel. What’s to make us believe the new government in Kiev is more liberal and democratic than the last? The Ukrainian parliament is a circus. Opposition members are regularly beaten on the floor of the parliament by the ruling party. The Ukrainian military fires rockets and artillery indiscriminately into crowded cities where civilians are inevitably killed. These are the actions of liberal democrats who we should support? It’s absolutely true that Russia is also ruthless, but Ukraine is no lamb. In the years that follow, I suspect we’ll regret treating Russia the way we have. Putin is compared to Hitler by the likes of Hillary Clinton and John McCain. In our ignorance, we’ve inflicted unsustainable borders and a currency collapse that wiped out many people’s savings upon Russia. Lest we forget, it was a currency debacle and unsustainable borders that led directly to Hitler’s rise to power. If we continue on this course, genuine extremists may usurp Putin and then we’ll find out what a Russian Hitler is really like.

LETTER TO THE EDITOR

Snobbery gives academia a bad name By Robert Dunn, senior in accounting In a letter to the editor on Feb. 11, 2015, Ms. Angie Carter responded to another student, Ms. Brittany Gaura, who posted a letter supporting the Bakken

pipeline being proposed. Rather than getting into this debate, I wanted to point out that Ms. Carter was very rude and condescending toward Ms. Gaura. She claimed that “most Iowans are not as ‘gullible’ as Gaura.” As someone who knows Ms. Gaura, she is far from gull-

ible. Just because you are a Ph.D candidate and are in academia does not give you the right to name call! It is pure intellectual snobbery and is a mockery of academia. Attitudes like the one displayed by Ms. Carter are the reason why a lot of Americans

are distrustful of academics. People who aspire to go into academia or are in academia should show more professionalism and even humility toward others. It would go a long way to bridging the gap between the ivory tower and the real world.

Marijuana has crept into headlines, slowly but surely, yet again with little noise. More and more studies are coming about that rival the counter arguments of pro- and anti-marijuana legislation parties. While some argue a joint after work would be the equivalent of a beer after work, others argue that marijuana will have a more concrete effect than many think. Both are true and supported by science. In 2012, the Journal of the American Medical Association released its findings, during a 20-year time period, that the recreational use of marijuana did not have a direct correlation to complications of pulmonary functions. The Journal stated, “marijuana smoke contains many of the same constituents as tobacco smoke, but it is unclear whether smoking marijuana causes pulmonary damage similar to that caused by tobacco.” The study went on to state that when researching the evidence between injury and inflammation in the lungs and airways, all research was inconclusive for determining that marijuana smoke directly affected the pulmonary function. This is vastly different from widelyacknowledged research that shows tobacco smoke from cigarettes does affect the pulmonary functions of the airwaves. However, a study performed in 2014 by the collaboration between Northwestern University and Harvard University showed that using marijuana recreationally causes certain health problems, many of which were thought to be myths meant to persuade people against using the drug. The study found that the regions of the brain that exercise emotion and motivation were abnormally altered in volume, shape and density, even in users who only got high once or twice a week. The research also found that the size and density were directly related to how many joints the person smoked during the course of the study. Both findings were researched and studied by some of the leading health organizations and universities in the nation. Both results were based upon unarguable science and prolonged trial studies. So these studies, along with many others, should show legislators that the final choice should be left to the person consuming the marijuana. Regardless of the new information provided concerning marijuana use, the government should play a non-restrictive role in legislating on marijuana, unless of course it wishes to legislate against alcohol and tobacco as well. Legalization is not a cure-all — it’s not like taking an Advil to relieve a headache. It’s like having a beer after work. You have one or two, you relax and you go to bed. It’s a recreational use. Or, it could be like pounding 12 beers in one night and participating in binge drinking. There’s no use in hiding the effects of using marijuana. We know binge drinking will physically hinder your body and can kill you. Binge marijuana smoking can probably do the same. But should we leave it up to the governments to tell us what we can and cannot use recreationally? Many states have taken steps toward allowing their citizens the right to choose. Some states, like Iowa, continue to refuse that option. There are pros and cons, as previously stated, to why the legalization should go through. It’s high time Iowa joins in the charge for that same goal.

Redshirt junior forward Jameel McKay jumps for a layup during Iowa State’s game against West Virginia on Feb. 14. McKay finished with 12 points and five blocks, helping the Cyclones defeat the Mountaineers 79-59.

LINEUP CHANGE TO BE TESTED IN COMING WEEK By Max.Dible @iowastatedaily.com The most substantial change ISU coach Fred Hoiberg has enacted this season was not determined by film study, statistical analysis or a gut feeling, but instead came down to hands on a clock. Guard Bryce-Dejean Jones showed up late for No. 14 Iowa State’s (18-6, 8-4 Big 12) contest versus Texas Tech on Feb. 7, thereby ceding his starting spot to redshirt junior Jameel McKay. The 6-foot-9inch forward has seized the opportunity in the three games since, averaging 15 points, more than eight rebounds and nearly three blocks per outing. The question that remains, is how much has the

ISU team benefited from the shake up? “It is really hard to tell,” said point guard Monté Morris. “When Bryce was in there, it was kind of the same. We just have a rim protector down there starting the game [now]. I like it both ways, but we are winning right now with this lineup.” Technically, that is true. Iowa State has recorded two victories and one loss since Hoiberg made the starting swap, but thus far, none of the results have swayed from professional prognostications. The Cyclones have beaten the teams they were expected to beat and lost to the team they were expected to lose against. Iowa State decimated Texas Tech at home, allowing only 38 points, which

hadn’t been done against a conference opponent in nearly half a century. The result, along with McKay’s three blocks and numerous other immeasurable contributions to the defense in the way of changing or forcing shots, appeared to indicate a defensive uptick. One game later, Iowa State surrendered the most points it has allowed all season as McKay was bullied by the massive frontline of Oklahoma. The third contest came against West Virginia at Hilton — a game the Cyclones won by 20 points. It was a vast improvement from the two-point victory Iowa State eked out in Morgantown, W. Va., but it was also the fourth time this season West Virginia had lost a conference game by a margin of 18 or more.

Dejean-Jones’ play has fluctuated as much as the Cyclones’ results during the previous week and a half. He’s scored in doubledigits twice, but is averaging fewer than 10 points per outing since his minutes were reduced to roughly 19 per game. “I would say it’s a challenge,” said Naz Long of Dejean-Jones’ move from fifth starter to first reserve. “A positive challenge because you really find out who you are when you get called to do this certain role.” While Dejean-Jones’ scoring numbers have sagged, he is shooting efficiently, posting 10-of-15 from the field throughout the previous three games. The Cyclones do appear a more efficient bunch offensively, as they have yet to play a game in which

the team shoots below 50 percent from the field since McKay’s addition to the starting rotation. Dejean-Jones, who has led the team in rebounding for much of the year by utilizing his usual size advantage at the guard position, has seen his rebounding numbers cut in half from six per contest to three. Yet, those numbers too have been supplemented by McKay’s presence under the hoop. It is perhaps harder to judge the coaching move on only a three-game sample size, particularly when two of those contests have come at Hilton, where Iowa State has yet to lose this season. Iowa State’s upcoming week features match-ups at No. 22 Oklahoma State and at Texas, and should help clear up what the team will

look like moving forward with Dejean-Jones as the sixth man, which felt like a trade of offense for defense when he was shelved and McKay was unleashed, but has not necessarily turned out that way. Dejean-Jones speaks rarely and briefly about the change in his role, but Hoiberg said that outside of the on-the-court results, he is happy with the progression he has witnessed in the mindset of the senior guard. “It’s different for Bryce coming off the bench for the first time in a long time,” Hoiberg said. “But [against West Virginia], he was out there engaged, talking on the bench. It was great to see.” Iowa State will complete the fourth step in its lineup experiment Wednesday at Oklahoma State.

Cyclones shoot for late season push By Ryan.Young @iowastatedaily.com If there were ever a time for ISU women’s basketball to kick it into gear, this would be it. Only five regular season games remain for the ISU women’s basketball team and each one is becoming more and more important.

Following the team’s loss at Oklahoma State on Saturday, its second straight, Iowa State is now tied with two other teams for third place in the conference standings. Just one game behind, though, lays four other Big 12 teams. With time running out to make a move in the standings, a good opportunity awaits Iowa State (159, 6-7 Big 12) when it hosts

Oklahoma (16-8, 10-3 Big 12) on Tuesday at Hilton Coliseum. “There’s a lot of possibilities for a lot of teams,” Fennelly said. “I’m sure the Big 12 office is pulling their hair out trying to figure out tiebreakers at this point. Everyone wants an opportunity and we have one with these last five games.” The Cyclones have faced the Sooners once before this season, however, they lost by nine points on the road. Even though the team couldn’t add a mark to the win column the first time around against the Sooners, senior guard Nikki Moody dropped a careerhigh 30 points that day. And since then, Moody has stolen the show. The Dallas native has averaged more than 17 points and nearly eight assists through the last nine games, which is best on the team. She also leads the nation with the best assist rating and is second nationally in career assists. But what happens when the shots don’t fall for the team? Well, against Oklahoma State last weekend, Iowa State only hit 18 of 69 shots. The Cyclones also shot just 6-of-25 from 3-point range. “You can play poorly, but if you make shots everything is better,” Fennelly said. “When you go on the road or play anyone and your starters shoot 23 percent, you’re not going

GAME INFO WHO: Iowa State vs. Oklahoma WHEN: 8 p.m., Tuesday WHERE: Hilton Coliseum in Ames, Iowa WATCH: Fox Sports 1 to win many games.” Like Fennelly said, it’s tough to win if you can’t make shots. But when they pass up open shots, like the players feel they have been recently, it gets even tougher. “We just have to embrace it,” said junior guard Nicole “Kidd” Blaskowsky. “When we do have those shots, we just have to shoot them. When not, that’s when you have to adjust your game a little bit.” Fennelly said he has put his team through a bunch of shooting drills lately, along with reviewing some of the better shooting games with his players. And if the Cyclones are going to pull themselves out of their newfound slump of sorts, tonight’s matchup is a good place to start. “All these games that we’ve been in, it’s been close,” Blaskowsky said. “It’s been in the last stretch that’s hurt us the most. We just have to stay locked in and do what we know how to do and just play our game.”

Dressing down a blazer By Miranda.Pollitt @iowastatedaily.com

Many people associate blazers with professional wear. However, blazers are a great piece to wear in your everyday wardrobe. By dressing down a blazer, one can create a classic look that can be tailored to personal style. Jeans Wearing a blazer with jeans is the simplest way to dress it down. For an edgy look, pair a blazer with black jeans, a simple white tee and black boots. For a preppy look, pair the blazer with a fun, colored button down and dark wash jeans. Accessorize the look with a bold statement necklace, classic watch and ankle booties. Knit Dress Pair a blazer with a knit dress for a semicasual look. Wear patterned or colored tights and tall boots to dress to keep the look appropriate for campus. Add delicate necklaces or bangles to complete the ensemble. Wearing a blazer with a dress made from comfortable material is a great substitute for a cardigan or sweater. Printed or Patterned Pants Wearing a solid blazer with bold, printed pants is one way to tone down the professional look of a blazer. Simply pair patterned pants with a solid blazer and a simple white shirt. Too accessorize the look, wear bold statement earrings to draw attention to the face. These are just a few ways of many to dress down a blazer. Remember that blazers can be worn any day of the year, not just in the workplace or for an interview.

Blazers are not just for interviews. Blazers can be dressed up with a dress or pants for a formal occasion. Or, they can be casually dressed down with the right basic essentials and accessories.

Natural eyebrows are in; learn how to groom them By Anna.Chandler @iowastatedaily.com The trend of voluptuous eyebrows began in the 1950s when Audrey Hepburn brought the heavy and untamed look into style. The natural brow continued to thrive through the â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;80s but soon lost itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s touch. Now, filling in eyebrows has become easier with makeup and beauty products available almost anywhere. More recently, model Cara Delevingne has put

emphasis on the natural brow look. The thick and bold brow with a slight arch is the perfect method to catch everyoneâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s attention. Rather than plucking to try to get that precise shape, let the hair grow at its own desire. This dominating trend is simple enough for every woman to achieve. Cosmetic brands including Anastasia and Benefit Cosmetics have made a name for themselves marketing new pencils, gels and shadows at all price points to obtain the perfect brow shape.

The basic necessities to perfect this trend include a double-ended brush to tame and comb the hair along with oneâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s choice of filler â&#x20AC;&#x201D; pencil, gel or shadow â&#x20AC;&#x201D; and a highlighter to emphasize the under brow. A rule of thumb for creating this look is to choose a shade that is closest to oneâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s natural color. This bold look takes some getting used to and baby steps are a must. Anastasia is a beauty mastermind company that offers products for beginners to professionals. The

eyebrow pencil is the ideal product for a newbie to practice with as one gets accustomed to the daring look. Step into the â&#x20AC;&#x153;Brow Powder Duoâ&#x20AC;? for a darker hue. Apply with a curved brush beginning from the middle of the brow outward. After the outer edge of the brow is filled in, line

to remember is practice makes perfect. Stray away from the tweezers and give brows a chance to grow into the fashionable look that has become a worldwide sensation. Well-groomed eyebrows will frame the face and accentuate your natural features.

nity to showcase their talent and passion for traditional music and gave them an opportunity to be heard. Latino Student Initiatives has already contacted them to play at the graduation ceremony they host in May. Lambda Theta Nu sorority has also contacted them to play at a future event. “To me, the demand

for people wanting to hear mariachi music is surprising and awesome that people actually like the music we like,” Tello said. The group hopes to add more than the traditional mariachi music, too. They hope to modernize the music by mixing traditional background music and more contemporary songs.

this waste hierarchy. One, called ISU Surplus, allows for the sale and reuse of excess equipment either between departments or to the public. Iowa State has its own composting site. Concrete from demolished buildings is largely recycled. In the past, energy costs for the entire campus were determined each month and individual buildings were billed for energy use based on size. Now, each building is metered and billed separately based on its actual energy use. Recently, the Live Green! loan fund was created to promote energy conservation and sustainability. Individual buildings can take this loan and use the money to implement sustainable infrastructure and use the money saved each year to repay the loan. After repayment, the building continues to receive the benefit of lower costs from energy savings. Programs like this are part of the reason Iowa State has seen a reduction in overall energy usage.

week. Iowa State collects waste from these compactors and from other receptacles on campus and sends the waste to a few different waste facilities, including the Ames Resource Recovery Center. The Resource Recovery Center follows the Environmental Protection Agency waste hierarchy to reuse, recycle, compost, burn and convert waste into useful energy or sent to a landfill. The hierarchy puts reusing and source reduction at the most desirable form of waste management, recycling and composting next, followed by energy recovery and finally treatment and disposal as the least desirable form. About 70 percent of Iowa State’s waste is disposed of in this way, said Merry Rankin, Iowa State’s director of sustainability. The energy created by burning waste “reduces the city of Ames’ coal use by about 10 percent,” Rankin said. Many programs have been created following

“There isn’t a reason why people can’t be all incorporated to finding the same set of ideas to try to uphold,” he said. More should be done to confront this problem and give every cadet and midshipman a safe place to learn, free from sexual harassment and assault, said Maj. Gen. Jeffrey Snow, director of the Department of Defense Sexual Assault Prevention and Response office, in a Feb. 11 Department of Defense press release. Bales and Ireland said that bystanders could stop a rape from happening. The cadets stressed five bystander intervention tips to stop sexual assault and harassment. They were; notice the event, recognize when to intervene, see personal responsibility, know how to act and take action. Ireland said that if someone saw a man steal an old lady’s purse, they wouldn’t just stand by, they would intervene. “You can be that guy,” he said. “You can go home feeling good about yourself.”

These eight representatives and other interested cadets participated in a sexual assault harassment prevention conference in Kansas City last semester. That training is shared with other cadets in military science classes. CASH/A aims to spread training to include working with the university and campus agencies. “We talk and we teach respect for one another,” said Master Sgt. Christopher Shaiko, adjunct instructor of military science and tactics. “Sexual assault and harassment don’t fall along those lines of respecting each other.” Sexual harassment and violence “violate everything the U.S. Army stands for,” according to the Army’s Sexual Harassment/Assault Response and Prevention program, SHARP. Aaron Hett, senior in mechanical engineering, is the cadet in charge of the program. He said it combats a cultural problem, which people should work together to solve.
