Quiet — as quiet as it can be with 15 million people living there — but it was a safe place,” said Azzaz, former president of the Egyptian Student Association and graduate in biochemistry, bio-

physics and molecular biology. Azzaz lived in Cairo for 24 years until leaving for Iowa State. He and his family moved west across the Nile River to a place called 6th of October City, where his family has resided safely since the recent upheaval.

Social issues divide party

proposes tuition hike By Paige.Godden iowastatedaily.com Iowa State is proposing a 7 percent increase to base tuition and all mandatory fees. This would raise resident tuition and fees rates from $6,996.70 to $7,485.60 for FY 2012. Non-residents are facing a 4.6 percent increase, or $794.90. The university is proposing a $182.90 increase in mandatory fees. Iowa State is asking for approval to enter a long-term lease with Ames Transit Agency for a new intermodal facility. The Ames Transit Agency has been awarded $8.5 million in federal grants, so the money is to be applied, and the project must be started by spring. Iowa State will also be requesting approval for two capital projects.

Faculty GOP is divided on several issues By Tyler.Kingkade iowastatedaily.com Iowa State student fired from legislative position for Facebook post Jessica Bruning didn’t think her personal stance on political issues would jeopardize her position as a clerk with Rep. Renee Schulte, R-Linn, in the Iowa legislature. However, after a Facebook post bucked the Republican party’s stance on the impeachment of the state Supreme Court justices, she quickly found herself out of a job. She had been told to “tone it down” after the State of the

Judiciary speech by Chief Justice Mark Cady, where she took part in standing ovations along with Democrats. During the 2010 election season, Bruning worked for the Branstad-Reynolds campaign but often shared information on Facebook about Justice Not Politics — a bipartisan group formed to advocate retention of the justices. One of the group’s co-chairpersons included Republican Joy Corning, who served as Terry Branstad’s lieutenant governor at the time the Iowa Defense of Marriage Act was signed into law.

Republican Gov. Bob Ray — who Branstad served as lieutenant governor under before he made his own run in 1982 — also spoke out against the anti-retention campaign. Branstad remained silent on the retention issue. Bruning continued to share articles and information in support of the justices after the elections as House Republicans began talk of impeaching the remaining judges. But after a Facebook post in

Budget cuts have eliminated many nonfaculty or professional positions and are forcing some staff members to relocate within the university. Although there are policies in place to protect employees’ jobs, some people are still having trouble with the reassignments. “It’s kind of upsetting because you become attached to the department that you are at,” said Jill Litwiller, secretary of human development and family studies. “You know the responsibilities and you know what you’re doing. You wouldn’t choose to leave.” When a position is eliminated within a department, whoever occupied the position is allowed to relocate to a similar position within

Alternative Spring Break

Latino clubs unite to raise awareness ISU Latino student organizations are joining forces Thursday night to raise awareness of the issues Latino students face each day. The Interested Gentlemen of Lambda Theta Phi Latin Fraternity Inc., Lambda Theta Nu Sorority Inc., the Latino Heritage Committee and Latinoamericanos are focusing on immigration at Thursday’s “Dare to Dream” event as it presents a number of issues Latino teenagers face as they grow up. After the new immigration laws in Arizona were put into effect was really the first time the different Latino organizations on campus have come together to collaborate on an event, said Claudia Prado Meza, president of the Latino Heritage Committee and international graduate in sociology. In the film, students tell their stories about how they have dealt with or are still dealing with these immigration issues. “This movie presents many experiences from different countries, which is important.

Communication is key — that’s the message Matt England wants students to understand. England, senior in aerospace engineering, acts as the student voice on Ames City Council as an ex-offico councilman and liaison to the Government of the Student Body. He speaks for students on city issues ranging from housing codes to Campustown redevelopment. “My main goal is to let the students know what the city is doing and how it affects them,” he said. “I work hard with city officials so if a student has an issue, they know they can come talk to me and I will point them in the right direction.” England first learned about the position, which began in March 2003, through fraternity brother Craig Buske.

Creating the Na’vi Language

Paul Frommer Linguist Paul Frommer found himself on an unexpected Hollywood adventure when he was hired to create the language spoken by aliens on the distant moon of Pandora. Frommer developed the Na’vi language for James Cameron’s Avatar, including grammar, syntax, and vocabulary. He worked personally with the actors to perfect Na’vi pronunciation and handled all translations, from script, to song lyrics, to dialogue for Wii and X-Box video games related to the ďŹ lm. Frommer has an eclectic background that includes teaching in Malaysia with the Peace Corps, working as a strategic planner and business writer in the corporate world and, more recently, as a professor in the University of Southern California’s Marshall School of Business. Frommer earned a PhD in linguistics from USC, with a dissertation on aspects of Persian syntax. He created the Martian language for the Disney ďŹ lm John Carter of Mars.

Hugh Jackman is busy packing on the pounds. The actor has been ordered by director Darren Aronofsky to bulk up for the new Wolverine movie. “Right now, I’m at 210,â€? he told the L.A. Times of his current weight, which is the result of an intense diet and workout regime. “It’s 6,000 calories a day,â€? he says. “It’s rough.â€? Jackman, 42, was closer to 190 pounds when he made 2009’s “X-Men Origins: Wolverine,â€? but Aronofsky insisted he add muscle for the latest ďŹ lm. “Darren said with the last one, ‘Hey you looked great, but you’re so tall that in those long shots you looked kind of like Clint Eastwood, and that’s not Wolverine,’â€? Jackman said. “He said that Wolverine, in the comics, is powerful, stocky, you know, he’s short and thick.â€? Jackman said that he is pumped about the upcoming “The Wolverine,â€? which, as Marquee previously reported, is not a sequel but a stand-alone ďŹ lm. In it, the razor-clawed Marvel hero will go into battle to win the heart of a Japanese woman whose hand in marriage was already promised to another man.

Ace reporter Fletch will be snooping his way around the big screen again. Warner Bros. has announced that it is planning to reboot the popular 1980s ďŹ lm franchise, according to the Hollywood Reporter. Chevy Chase starred in the original two “Fletchâ€? movies, which were based on Gregory McDonald’s mystery novels about investigative journalist I.M. Fletcher. Filmmaker Kevin Smith tried for more than a decade to revamp the franchise with an adaptation of “Fletch Wonâ€? but the project eventually ďŹ zzled out. No word yet on who is being considered to headline the Warner Bros. ďŹ lm.

The casting could prove controversial, as Perry’s projects — such as 2010’s “For Colored Girls.â€? — usually draw a largely female audience while Patterson’s mysteries appeal mostly to men, according to Deadline.com. “I, Alex Crossâ€? follows Cross as he attempts to track down barbaric serial killer Zeus. The project was originally conceived for actor Idris Elba before Perry, 41, landed the lead.

The ďŹ rst is a request of an estimated $4.4 million for heating, ventilation and air condition improvements in the College of Veterinary Medicine Laboratory Animal Resources central facility. The second is for a project budget of $3.6 million for the Willow Hall ďŹ re suppression system installation and exterior improvements. A report ďŹ led to the regents lists the number of complaints, cases, grievances and claims toward Iowa State. Three administrative cases were ďŹ led: one for age discrimination and retaliation; one involving alleged sex discrimination and retaliation, which has been administratively closed. The third allegation claim involves race. Five faculty grievances came from faculty and P&S grievances and disciplinary cases. Four were denied, and one of the four cases “involved allegations that the Department of Sociology was unfairly singled out for budget reductions.â€? Another case involved a faculty salary dispute which was resolved in favor of the faculty member. University Audit reports are also on the schedule. Iowa State has received a high ranking on effort reporting, which means it may involve “compliance with federal, state or other laws and could result in serious consequences if not implemented, or unacceptable weakness in the internal and/or accounting controls or substantial savings can potentially be realized by correcting,â€? according to the audit report. “It is the policy of Iowa State to comply with federal regulations regarding effort reporting,â€? according to the effort reporting policy at Iowa State. “Consequently, Iowa State has adopted this effort reporting policy, supported by detailed Effort Reporting and CertiďŹ cation Requirements and the Employee Activity Summary of Effort manual.â€? The University of Iowa is requesting to terminate the Master of Arts program in comparative literature and the doctoral program in women studies and requesting to suspend admission to the doctoral program in health and sport studies.

“Everyone is safe and well,â€? Azzaz said of his family still at home. “I just spoke to my mother the other day and she was out going to the market. It is safe.â€? However, Azzaz said the media added an overly dramatized version of the recent situation in Egypt. The news is promoting that looting has become a crisis, but Azzaz said it wasn’t really that severe. “The police retreated Jan. 28 because they were defeated by the mass protesters,â€? he said. “And that is when the looters started attacking supermarkets and setting ďŹ res. Officers were not at the police stations so criminals escaped, and there are about 17,000 escaped prisoners throughout the country now.â€? Azzaz related this incident to the 9/11 event that plagued New York and the rest of the country. Mayhem ooded the streets and people took advantage of whatever they could.

“People are really stepping up though. My brother and father grabbed sticks to patrol the neighborhood, because there were not police there. But the looting has ended,â€? Azzaz said. Disconnection of Internet Service Provider further complicated the situation. “People were pissed [when the Internet and phone services were disconnected],â€? Azzaz said. “It started when a group on Facebook was formed to start protests in solidarity for a man who was beaten to death because he refused to show is ID when confronted by police at an Internet cafe.â€? Land lines were still connected, but cell phones and Internet services were shut down in an effort to stop people from organizing against the government. “They ďŹ rst tried to shut down Facebook and Twitter, but people were able to breach through the system and still use it, so they just shut down it all,â€?

Vander Plaats is the unsuccessful three-time Republican gubernatorial candidate who led the campaign to successfully oust three of the judges that were a part of decision. Bruning said young people are often told throughout their years in school to get involved and voice their opinion, “Then when I post a simple Facebook status, I get ďŹ red.

This was an effort to delay protesters and uprisings but it actually caused more damage than it did good, he said. “Without Internet the trade is affected; the stock market lost 60 billion Egyptian pounds in two days,� Azzaz said. In October of 1981, Hosni Mubarak came into presidency after the former president was assassinated. Mubarak has been infamous during the years for not promoting democracy, and creating relations between the prime minister of Israel. “The people do not want to be involved [with Israel],� Azzaz said. Currently there are 24 different political parties in Egypt. However, the parties are always at war with each other. “We call them ‘puppet parties’ because they are all controlled by the police and they feed the feuding, they want them against each other,� Azzaz said.

viewpoint. “Maybe this is just me being naive, but I have a really tough time believing A: Every single [Republican that] disagreed with the Varnum decision wanted the judges to be thrown out, and wants them to be impeached,� Bruning said. “And B: Even if they do think that, I guarantee you not every one of their constituencies thinks that.� Bruning is actually on a board with several other prominent Iowa politicians for the 50/50 in 2020 Project — a group aiming to elect more women to office in Iowa. The group includes former lieutenant governors Corning and Patty Judge, and Debi Durham, a Republican who currently serves in the Branstad administration. As a Republican, Bruning worries about the negative effect divisive debate on social issues could have on the party, possibly pushing young people away from the Grand Old Party who may be socially liberal like herself. “I hope not every young Republican that feels the way I do has to go through the things that I did by a simple statement of thought,� she said.

The protesting has not only caused fear within Egypt, but internationally. Oil prices increased, the stock market is changing and international relationships are being tested. “[Secretary of State] Hillary Clinton said at ďŹ rst that we should remain peaceful, and now [Vice President] Joe Biden is putting his sense in but they are not what we need,â€? Azzaz said. Tuesday night, President Mubarak gave a televised speech that touched on his future plans for his presidency.

As it becomes legal, he said, the more the arguments of opponents of same-sex marriage ring a little hollow as the public starts to ask themselves, “How does this affect me? “The importance of social issues are strongest amongst the most wealthy,â€? Peterson said. Peterson claimed there is mixed evidence of Republicans being able to use social issues as wedges to pull off middle to lower class voters in support of the GOP, who then pass economic policy that is bad for those middle to lower class voters. Bruning said many people throughout Iowa know who King is because of his controversial statements, but many people in Ames do not know of their own congressman, Rep. Tom Latham.

GSB Vice President Nate Dobbels said there was no question England would be successful in the position. “When determining who would be best to represent the students, but also making sure it was someone gathering information to give back to students, [England] was by far the easiest choice we had to make for the cabinet this year,â€? Dobbels said. “His past relationships that he had developed with students showed he was ready to take that to a whole new level with the city of Ames. It was pretty much a no-brainer from our decision to put him into his current position.â€? A fraternity brother wasn’t the only ACACIA connection England had in the new position. He also had a friendly face on the City Council when he joined: Jeremy Davis, councilman and chapter adviser to ACACIA. “I worked with him a lot over the past year on fraternity issues it was nice when I came on council that I had that friendly face,â€? England said. “It’s been nice to have someone established, where if I don’t know who I should talk to I can come to him and he could point me in the right direction.â€? But Davis, representative of Ward 3 since January 2010, said that in being reasonably new to the operation himself, he was unable to be as much as a resource for England as other members of City Council. “I’m still learning about certain city operations and different issues as they come up,â€? Davis said. “I know [England’s] reached out to other folks on City Council for more support to understand topics better and for more background.â€?

The consensus is unanimous from GSB executives and City Council alike: England is the right person for the position. England is one of the most engaged and effective ISU students who has acted as the ex-officio member, said Jami Larson, city councilman and representative of Ward 2 since November 2006. “I can’t think of a meeting he’s missed,â€? Larson said. “Whenever we have something where we want student’s input, he’ll either offer his opinion or will reach out to students to ďŹ nd out the opinion.â€? Davis agrees. “Throughout the course of the past eight or nine months, when there are certain topics that come up on the City Council agenda, [England] has been willing to speak his opinion,â€? he said. “Whether its in similarity to the [City Council] or in disagreement, he’s willing to speak his opinion based on the concerns he has for stuff that related to the ISU student population.â€? Right now, England is focusing on getting feedback from students; including about Campustown redevelopment. “Right now the biggest part of the project is getting the right information to the students and the Ames community,â€? England said. “By having discussion and open communications between the student and city will get things moving in the right direction. Whether they decide to go forward with the project depends a lot on the level of community involvement.â€? Miscommunication is one of the biggest obstacles England faces. “I think right now the biggest part of the

project is getting the right information to the students and the Ames community,â€? England said. “[Monday] morning, I was sitting in class and a student on my left was talking about the [Campustown] project. He, not knowing my position, felt it was not a good decision to reconstruct Campustown and didn’t want the city to go forward with it. I asked why, and he said he didn’t want the bars to disappear.â€? But England said destroying Ames nightlife is not in the plans at all. “The plan is not to tear down the bars. At the moment, we need to get the right information to the right people,â€? England said. “By having discussion and open communications between the student and city will get things moving in the right direction. Whether how they decide to go forward with the project depends a lot on the level of community involvement.â€? City Council members and GSB executives encourage students to utilize England as a resource for issues or questions on any matter, not just Campustown. “Unless [students] choose to communicate, we cannot help them or we can’t understand what the problem or concern is. I think having [England] as a member of City Council and having him in that [student] peer age group really helps bridge the gap between the two parties.â€? GSB President Luke Roling agrees England is an asset to the student body. “Just talk with him,â€? Roling said. “[England] is very, very open to communication with any student ... contact him and I’m sure he’d be more than willing to sit down and chat.â€? England urges students to voice concerns. He wants students to know they will not go unheard. “Student input matters,â€? England said. “If you do or you don’t want something, we’re looking for that communication. Why you do, why you don’t, it deďŹ nitely will matter. The councilmen who are voting will only vote on whatever issue is front of them, based on their knowledge. If people don’t express how they feel, the council members won’t know that. People need to voice their opinions.â€?

Laura Coombs, senior in management, is a site leader this year for the Operation Breakthrough trip in Kansas City. Operation Breakthrough is a day care program for children living in poverty. “We will be going to the day care and helping in the classrooms while also having the experience to learn from leaders in the community,� Coombs said.

the university. The relocated employee will have the opportunity to “bumpâ€? another employee from their position based on their seniority and therefore will force them to ďŹ nd another position and repeat the process or be laid off. Employees are protected by the American Federation of State, County and Municipal Employees and therefore, have some insulation from being laid off. The AFSCME contract includes provisions for faculty members whose positions have been removed to relocate to another position provided it is within the same class title. A class is a job title that includes positions like secretaries, clerks and assistants. However, jobs performed by secretaries, assistants and other clerks can vary widely between departments and often take long periods of time to train for. Therefore, even if one employee gets moved to another position of the same title, he or she may not be prepared to adequately perform the required duties. “It’s sad because there are so many people that know that position and know the responsibilities,â€? Litwiller said. “They’re not all the same,â€? she said. “People have been trained for the position, and then they get bumped to a position that they don’t have any experience in.â€? However, administrators at Iowa State are also in a tough spot because although they try to make sure everyone is placed in a good position, not everyone can be accommodated. “It may not be the perfect match, but it’s designed to affect as few people as possible,â€? said Andy Bock, president of AFSCME Local 96. “It’s designed to fulďŹ ll the needs of the institution and the needs of the employee.â€? Employees who have to be bumped also have the choice of being voluntarily laid off, or changing their title, which would also limit their rights as employees and could reduce their pay. “If an employee is unhappy about being bumped, it’s certainly understandable,â€? Bock said. “Through the contact they are given certain opportunities they would not have been given if they were not,â€? Bock said.

This team will be making its way to Indianapolis to work with the homeless populations through working at soup kitchens and homeless shelters. The team that will be going to Cincinnati will be servicing Greater Cincinnati Coalition for the Homeless. “Our trip will have a combination of learning activities as well as providing service from 9 to 5 each day,â€? said Ashley Hunter, graduate in political science and site leader of the Ohio team. “The learning activities are anywhere from listening to speakers or eating on food stamps, or living homeless. Then service is with in the Cincinnati Coalition for the Homeless where they need us,â€? Hunter said.

Students involved with these trips said they ďŹ nd they are often quite an enjoyable way to spend their spring breaks. They said they usually learn more about society from the experiences they get to have through these trips. “I have made amazing friends through this program and have had the opportunity to meet so many great people from different backgrounds and cultures,â€? said Scallon. “Personally, Alternative Breaks has opened my eyes to cultures outside of Ames and the state of Iowa, and has made me realize that service is a very important part of my life because there are so many people in our country who are less fortunate than I am,â€? Scallon said. “If by giving up my spring break I am able to make a difference in someone’s life then it has been completely worth it.â€?

Editorial

Students are more than dollar signs If you’re planning on enjoying your adventure at Iowa State during the 2011-2012 school year, keep this amount in mind: $7,485.62. That, ladies and gentlemen — if the Board of Regents isn’t snowed out of Iowa City — will likely be the grand total for a year’s worth of tuition and mandatory fees for instaters in Cyclone territory. That’s a 7 percent, $523.95, increase over the previous year. We don’t know how to make it stop. We’re not even sure if we can. We sat down with President Gregory Geoffroy in fall 2010, where he discussed across-the-board budget cuts mandated by the state legislature, including their possible repercussions throughout the university. You’ve heard about the Blue Sky fiasco. Not entirely unrelated is the notion that Iowa State is devolving into a “regional tech school.” And, then, of course, there’s the GOP’s zeal in cutting state-subsidized preschool to save money. It seems that, while on the campaign trail, it behooves those politicking to espouse deep adulation and affinity for the educational opportunities bestowed upon the youth of tomorrow. “Oh yes, Miss Constituent, Johnny’s schooling is of the utmost importance to me, as is the schooling of all of Iowa’s youth.” We can’t recall anyone stumping on a platform to the contrary, yet here we are, post-election, dealing with two huge legislative slaps to funding public education. It seems that “budget crisis” serves as a wonderful excuse to wring every last nickel and dime out of John and Jane Q. College Student. We’re told we’re coddled; that we’ve been given a wonderful, upwardly-mobile opportunity to make a difference in the “real world.” We’re told that the sheer expanse of educational opportunity we’re allowed somehow escapes us on a daily basis. Somehow, our iPods and Facebooking obfuscate the fact that tuition inflation has outpaced “regular” inflation on an exponential scale. It seems the general opinion is that the luxury of having a phone in our pocket as opposed to the kitchen wall means we’re somehow more coddled than the generations before us. Thus, we somehow under-appreciate the opportunity to inundate ourselves in six-figure debt. Dearest Legislators, while you may indeed find us coddled, spoiled, or whatever other terms you’ve found in that thesaurus, know this: You made the bed you’re asking us to lie in. It seems that in the end, the powers that be are looking out solely for big-business interests. We’re faced with a state legislation that appears to find it wise to saddle students with an ever-increasing share of the educational burden. Surely, that’s not a move that has anything to do with student debt interest going to Iowa banks, right? We can’t help but begin to wonder whether we’re college students or a legislative commodity.

Despite a long list of other available problems, House Speaker John Boehner has decided to make redefining rape a Congressional priority. Courtesy photo: Wikimedia Commons

Isn’t ‘NO’ enough?

By Jessica.Opoien iowastatedaily.com

New bill seeks to expand Hyde Amendment

R

epublicans promised us jobs. They promised solutions for our broken economy. But now that it’s time to deliver, what is number one on the agenda? Redefining rape. That’s right, folks. House Speaker John Boehner has decided to make redefining rape a top Congressional priority. Enter H.R. 3, the No Taxpayer Funding for Abortion Act. The goal is clear, the name a bit more misleading. Since 1976, thanks to the Hyde Amendment, the use of taxpayer dollars to fund abortion has been severely limited. Under the Hyde Amendment, the only abortions that may receive taxpayer funds are those that result from rape, incest or a pregnancy that endangers the life of the woman. This new bill, introduced by Rep. Chris Smith with 173 mostly Republican co-sponsors — just 16 of them women, seeks to expand the Hyde Amendment restrictions. Under the proposed legislation, companies that offer health plans that cover abortions would be denied tax credits, and anyone with insurance that covers abortions would be barred from receiving federal subsidies — even if the abortion portion were paid separately, with personal funds. But let’s move past the insurance debate, and focus on the most universally offensive effect this legislation seeks to impose — the redefinition of “rape.”

Essentially, this bill says that the only way to justify an act as “rape” is if it is “forcible.” That is to say, the existing rape exemption, that allows taxpayer funding in the case of rape, is now only an exemption for “forcible rape.” And the incest exemption? It’ll only be valid if the victim is a minor. I guess, as a woman, I should just be grateful that, if I don’t pass these new rape and incest tests, the bill at least preserves the resources available to me if a pregnancy puts my life in danger. Somehow, I do not find much comfort in this. Of course, we’re not talking about the legality of abortion — we’re talking about under which circumstances federal assistance may apply to abortion. But we’re talking about Medicaid, which is what makes many medical procedures and resources available to poor women. Restricting Medicaid coverage for abortion is taking it from the hands of women whose low income already makes them vulnerable. So what is “forcible rape?” No one seems to have an answer. “Forcible rape” is not defined in the federal criminal code, and this bill offers no suggestions. How much force must be involved for a rape to qualify? Does the victim need to have visible bruises or broken bones? What if she screams? How loud must she scream before it is determined that her rapist forced himself on her? If she eventually falls silent, does that mean she wants it? What if she can’t do any of these things, because she was drugged? What if she was coerced? Incapacitated in some other way?

Under H.R. 3, it sounds like “no” is no longer enough. Rep. Dan Lipinski, D-Ill., one of the bill’s few Democratic co-sponsors, said in a statement released to Talking Points Memo, “The language of H.R. 3 was not intended to change existing law regarding taxpayer funding for abortion in cases of rape, nor is it expected that it would do so.” If that’s the case, then why not let the existing language remain in place? Why add the word “forcible” to the rape exemption, and why limit the incest exemption to those under the age of 18? Plain and simple, this is an attack on women’s rights. The fact that 16 Congresswomen are lending their support to the bill does nothing to contradict this fact; men and women are equally capable of sending us back to the age of the “utmost resistance” doctrine, under which a rape verdict was only reached if it was determined that a woman had resisted as hard as she physically could. Female rape victims can take some comfort in the unlikelihood of this bill becoming law, thanks to a Democratic Senate majority and a pro-choice president. But it is not enough to simply prevent this law from making it into the books. It is time to speak out against lawmakers who think they can quietly change the definition of rape, when one in six women and one in 33 men have been the victim of an attempted or completed rape in their lifetime. Republicans promised jobs. They promised to balance the budget. But now, the best they care to offer us is a purely symbolic stab at the poor women of the United States.

H.R. 3

No basis for redefining rape T

he new Speaker of the House, John Boehner, has his own agenda. One of his biggest pushes is to redefine rape to limit the number of abortions in the United States with the H.R.3, No Taxpayer Funding for Abortion Act proposed by Chris Smith. Whether you are for or against abortions is not the point in this article, I am pretty sure you have your mind already made up on that subject. What is distressing is how they want to limit abortions by redefining rape. The GOP is pushing that rape is only rape if it involves force. Now, I am pretty sure that all rape is forced because no means no. However, if this goes through, it will take a lot more than saying “no” to prove you were raped, it will take cuts and bruises. So what is forced rape by Boehner and friend’s definition? They don’t really have one. The term “forcible rape” is not defined in the federal criminal code, and the bill’s authors don’t give their own definition. In some states, there is no legal definition of “forcible rape,” and it varies from state to state, making it unclear what services would be offered for women in these areas if they are raped. While they can’t tell you what is covered, they can tell you a whole bunch of not-really rapes. The list is huge, which makes me wonder what could possibly be covered under the new rules.

By Abigail.Barefoot iowastatedaily.com If you were drugged or given excessive amounts of alcohol, it’s not rape. If you have limited mental capacity, it’s not rape. If it’s statutory or it you are more than 18 and it was incest-based, it’s not rape. If you did not push, kick and bite it is not rape. When it comes to rape, 70 percent are non forcible, and that is a big number to ignore. With this new bill, we are pushing for the one view of rape, the stereotypical virginal girl walking alone in a dark alley is raped by a stranger after being badly beaten. In reality this example is in the minority. The attacker is known to 85 to 90 percent of survivors, according to the National Institute of Justice. I know that at Iowa State, rape is well defined and includes some descriptions that didn’t make the rape cut. It seems students and faculty at Iowa State have more knowledge of rape than some of our officials in Washington. From our Get a Yes program, and Catalyst Theatre program at Iowa State, we want students to know what rape is. We know bruises don’t make rape; no consent makes it rape. While this new definition is linked to abortion and insurance claims, there is no word with how it will affect law enforcement and judicial affairs. Either way, this will impact numerous women and how they deal with the traumatic experience of rape. Can we please look beyond funding and abortions and focus on the women who are survivors

of a horrible ordeal? We might not all agree on the abortion stance, but I like to think no one is for rape. This is demeaning for the women who have been traumatized and taken advantage of. It is unacceptable to go through rape only to be snubbed and be told that it isn’t really rape because force wasn’t used. It contradicts what counselors and wonderful people at ACCESS here in Ames say. It puts unnecessary blame on the survivor even though everyone else is telling her it is not her fault. I have yet to see exactly how these women will have to prove that meet the forcible rape qualifications if they do seek an abortion, but the bill seems to state that every survivor who finds herself in need of abortion funding will have to submit her rape for government approval. Imagine you have to write down your horrible experience, and send it to government officials and have them say “no it wasn’t rape, you didn’t put up a fight.” The bill makers seem to have no clue that many women when put in rape situations do not put up a fight because they are afraid for their lives. Take this situation: A woman was at a party with a male friend and she has too much to drink. Her friend tries to take advantage of her even though she said no. He is much bigger than her and she is too disoriented and scared for her life to fight back. Afterwards she calls the police

and has to recount her story, unable to shower because they need to collect evidence. They keep telling her it is not her fault. Later she finds out she is pregnant and goes to her government officials for permission to get an insurance-covered abortion. She has to tell them detail by detail what happened even though it still haunts her. Only to be told that because she was drunk, and didn’t fight back it wasn’t rape. What message is teaching the people of America? That it’s OK to have sex with someone who is intoxicated because it really isn’t rape? That as long as you don’t hit, it’s not rape? This undoes all the teachings that many organizations have tried to drill into our head. In America, rape and sexual assault is one of the most unreported crimes with Rape, Abuse, Incest National Network reporting 60 percent of cases never make it to the police. If we redefine rape, I doubt that number will go down. Even today, we still have women who say, “I think I was raped, but I was drunk so it was my fault,” or, “I said no but I couldn’t stop him.” This bill will only make matters worse for these women. They will receive contradicting messages from crisis workers and from the government. Rapists could walk free because their victims were told it wasn’t rape. How could people thing this could be a good thing? No means no, and it’s sad our officials in government still needs to learn this.

Campus life

Responsibility is key to pet ownership By Sarah.Tisinger iowastatedaily.com

Think about commitments when caring for cats, dogs Many students feel at a loss having left their beloved pet back home once they come to college. Others view this time as an opportunity to gain a pet, but furry friends do come with a price. Before either bringing your loved one up to college with you or picking one up at the Nevada Shelter, there are a few monetary questions you need to truthfully answer to yourself. Obviously, the first question is who will be paying for food, toys and veterinary bills? If it’s you, make sure you have a steady monthly income to pay for these items, especially veterinary bills. Dogs and cats need regular yearly shots, heartworm medicine and flea/tick control. Those costs add up and you must also be prepared for the unexpected veterinary call if your pet becomes sick or requires urgent care.

Many places in Ames do not allow you to have pets besides fish. If you should find a place that does allow pets, beware of the high pet deposit fees and/or monthly pet fees. Can you really afford an extra $50 a month just to keep your friend with you? If you are to go out of town for a weekend, do you know where to find reliable care for your pet? You can’t always take him or her with you and boarding facilities charge fairly high rates. Plus, boarding your pet at places like a veterinarian’s office is risking bad behavior when you come back. Anxiety, excessive noise from your animal and bad manners are a few good examples. The last and most expensive expense is your time. Do you have a backyard where your pet is safely able to roam about? The Ames Dog Park charges $40 for a year’s pass, but you will need your own reliable transportation to get there. Can you walk your dog multiple times a week

and supply ample playtime in between classes? If you believe you are capable of caring for a pet while in college, here are a few money saving tips you may enjoy. The ISU Veterinary hospital gives a 10-percent off discount to ISU faculty, staff and students. If you need to go out of town and don’t want to board your furry friends, the ISU PreVet Club offers free in-home pet sitting. You can contact them at isupetcare@gmail.com The Story County Animal Shelter charges only a $25 adoption fee for dogs that includes spay/neuter, first shots and worming. The cat adoption fee is $20 and includes spay/neuter, first shots, worming and declawing of front paws. Stores such as Theisens in Ames are great places to find anything from leashes, collars, feed and bowls. I especially like Theisens for items like pig’s ears and bully sticks. Stay away from buying pet supplies from grocery stores, as prices will be higher and selection is low. Veterinary offices can supply you with flea/

tick control and heartworm medication, but petcarerx.com often has these items for less than you can get from the vet. However, you still need to have a vet do heartworm tests before you buy these products. Companies like Greenies usually offer great coupons, and visiting the blog at mypetsavings. com will tell you where these offers are. Iams Co. offers discounts for owners who adopted their pet.

Letters

Begin smart money habits before it’s too late ISU students, did you know that Iowa State ranks fourth among public universities in student debt loads, according to the Project on Student Debt? Six years ago, I entered Iowa State as an out-of-state freshman. I vividly remember hearing my Destination Iowa State leader talk with a fellow leader about his recent purchase. This student had used the refunded tuition money to buy a motorcycle. Yup, that’s right, a motorcycle. I have also heard throughout my time here at Iowa State that students using their tuition/student loan refunds for funding their spring break trips to South Padre Island, paying off credit card debt accrued and down payments for cars.

So you’re probably reading this letter, be it online or in your hands, thinking this isn’t you and never will be. Is that the truth? Maybe some of you are indeed fortunate enough not to have this issue, but we are all in this together Cyclones. The statistics about our university are out there and affect us as current students and alumni. Might I also mention that tuition is going to keep rising? It seems pretty inevitable at this point that more and more of the

university’s funding is going to come directly from us, the students, and the tuition we pay. The economic recession has had a huge impact on public universities and higher education funding. But, the recession has also had a huge impact on those, like myself, graduating. Jobs are more and more competitive and harder to come by. The reality is that we are filling out countless online applications and maybe never hearing back from employers. We are a lost generation; lost in the fact that the majority of us didn’t learn financial life skills from anyone. So maybe you overspent on your credit card one month, and to financially recover you lived off of peanut butter and jelly and mac and

cheese for a month. Those lessons, while hard to endure, are important to learn too, because hopefully you learned that to be fiscally prepared is better than being in the red. I myself am implicated in this debt issue, as a current master’s student and someone who over six years of college has accumulated $52,000 in student loans. This is what I have been willing to pay for my education, but I fully realize this is what I owe six months after graduation. This is my hot button issue, ISU student debt. Perhaps this is atypical when compared to issues such as gay marriage, immigration, politician’s scandals, etc., but this is what gets me fired up.

If this letter helped shine a light on this issue and fire you up too, then talk to someone. It’s like having the sex talk with your parents; while uncomfortable, talk to them about how to budget money, how to spend wisely and moreover, save wisely. Talk to your roommate, a study buddy, a dating partner, your CA, your fraternity brothers/sorority sisters or go to the place we have on campus, the ISU Financial Counseling Clinic. The biggest impact you could have on your future, along with other ISU students, is to talk to your GSB senator. If you don’t believe that government works, try e-mailing or talking to your senator, you’d be surprised at the result you’ll get.

to be a non-profit protégé. I was paired with Art Weeks, director of the Ames Public Library, and met weekly with him to discuss a diverse array of topics, ranging from budgeting to event planning to leadership philosophies. I feel like this is an opportunity that really stands out from any other that I’ve had because it allowed me to see how an established community organization functions and what it takes to lead that organization. My participation in this project

increased my awareness of the larger Ames community and helped me explore my career possibilities. At the end of the program, I listened to other protégés share their non-profit experiences. Many spoke of inspiration they received from their mentor or talked about the way that they had seen lessons from textbooks applied in real life. All of them spoke of how thankful they were to have had this unique opportunity. I would encourage anyone who is interested in exploring the world of non-profits to apply for this program. Applications are due Friday, March 4, and can be found at www.sac.iastate.edu under the Service Programs tab.

The rejection of the unitive aspect of sex is not just cruel, it’s also a distortion of the act. It deconstructs a beautiful act into power relations or the accumulation of pleasure, leaving behind horrible casualties of hollowedout souls in its wake. Sure, most people today do not consciously reject the unitive and procreative aspects of sex, but they are nurtured in a culture so hostile to both that many people do not realize that there are other options. The modern twisting of sex is not a semantics issue, or a vague, philosophical issue. It is an issue that affects all of us. When we fail to respect our own bodies, we fail to respect ourselves and we fail to respect life itself.

by Planned Parenthood, advertising condoms or other birth control. When I look at them, I can’t help thinking that they look bright, cheery, friendly and very fake. Behind the cheery faces and bright graphic design, these ads push something very inauthentic. They certainly push sterility, that’s the whole point of the product, of course, but it seems industrial or inhuman. Many advertisements fail to recognize that their targets are humans, but few have a subject that is so close and intimate to our own bodies. There’s something inauthentic about condoms

themselves, like someone refusing to touch their significant other unless they’re wearing rubber gloves. It is easy to see the cheapening of sex today in an average party in Ames during any weekend. Go to them, and you will hear both men and women talking about the other sex as instruments; they are treated as nothing but tools which help achieve pleasure. It’s remarkably selfish, however, the idea has been treated as somehow “enlightened” by many of the educated and their educators. Women are often told that, somehow, they can be empowered if they use men for pleasure and then toss them to the curb as effectively as some men use and toss away women.

ex is beautiful. During sex, you give your whole self, both physically and spiritually, to your partner. Even better, you allow for the creation of new life; a new human being that can love, create and think just as well as you can. However, the unitive and procreative aspects of sex are today often divided, repackaged, consumerized for convenience or, worst of all, cheapened. We are told that sex is valuable for the pleasure it creates, that we can or should have sex as often as possible, so long as we do it “safely.” We have sterilized ourselves, physically and emotionally.

If there’s another program that lets you have the undivided attention of a local leader for an hour each week or gives you such an up-close look at what it’s like to run a non-profit organization, I am unaware of it. This program pairs ISU students with leaders of local non-profit agencies, allowing students to shadow the leaders during the fall semester by meeting regularly with them, attending a board meeting and completing a project to give back to the organization.

National Signing Day

Rhoads, staff excited about new recruits Iowa State signs 22 players to make a “balanced” team By Jake.Lovett iowastatedaily.com Iowa State has signed 22 recruits for the incoming class of 2011, a class coach Paul Rhoads called “balanced” during his announcement Wednesday afternoon. The class features six players from the state of Iowa, five from each California and Texas and four more from Florida, and brings in players at each position on the offensive and defensive sides of the ball. “As I’ve often said in recruiting: it’s not those that you don’t get in recruiting that hurts you,” Rhoads said. “It’s the guys that you do get that don’t pan out.” The class is offense-heavy, bringing in 11 players to that unit alone. Three quarterbacks, two running backs and four wide receivers come into an offense that was 11th-best in the Big 12 in terms of scoring offense. “We’re about right on the money with the numbers we want at every position group,” Rhoads said. “Running back and quarterback are two positions that at the high school level coaches often put their best athletes.”

Steele Jantz draws attention at Signing Day Great expectations await transfer player By Dan.Tracy iowastatedaily.com The name of junior college transfer and now ISU quarterback Steele Jantz has caught the eyes of many, if not for his success at City College of San Francisco (CCSF), then simply for the uniqueness of his name. On Monday’s National Signing Day, the media got their first chance to speak with Jantz as well as the other three ISU recruits — wide receiver Aaron Horne, offensive lineman Samuel Tautolo and linebacker Jevohn Miller — currently enrolled in spring classes. Coming off a season in which he threw for 3,075 yards and 23 touchdowns, along with rushing for 601 yards and 14 touchdowns, Jantz knows that the expectations will be high, especially if he’s named the Cyclones’ starter. “I think people do have expectations, and not that I don’t pay attention to them, but I just try to stay focused on what I need to do,” Jantz

said. “There’s always going to be expectations from people, the important thing is my expectations for myself.” As for what he expects of himself, Jantz wants to set an example of the type of person that he is, which he claims is someone who works hard, leads by example and focuses on controlling what he can control.

The 6-foot-4-inch, 212-pound Aguora Hills, Calif., native ran a similar offensive system at CCSF that was fast-paced and focused on spreading the field. To get more acclimated with the ISU offense, Jantz has been meeting with offensive coordinator Tom Herman and offensive graduate assistant Drew Mehringer on a daily basis to go through the playbook and

watch film. “I’m a big believer in it,” Jantz said of the offense. “I understand the mentality of the offense which helps me fit well with it.” Coach Paul Rhoads looks at three qualities when recruiting the quarterback position, a combination of intelligence and leadership, accuracy in throwing the football and athleticism when it comes to escaping pressure. Rhoads found Jantz to boast all three along with some of the intangibles it takes to be the signal caller. “He’s got great leadership skills,” Rhoads said. “The football team responds to him.” Along with redshirt junior to-be Jerome Tiller, Jantz agreed that he figures to be a front-runner as the team prepares for spring practices. “I think quarterback is a position where every single person competing for that position should feel like they’re the guy,” Jantz said. The question of who will be the next quarterback will be asked even to players that won’t be vying for the position. “It’s going to be a battle,” Horne, a teammate of Jantz at CCSF, said. “Steele was my quarterback in JUCO

so he’s got the advantage from my standpoint but the other quarterbacks … we’ll have to see.” Along with Herman and offensive line coach Bill Bleil, Rhoads was able to see Jantz in person during his 11-1 season with CCSF. “He knows when to take something off the ball, he knows when to rifle the ball, he knows when to lead a receiver, he knows when to tuck it and run,” Rhoads said. “All of those are reasons why we thought it was important to sign him as a junior college player, get him in here at mid-year and compete for our starting quarterback position.” Rhoads reiterated in his press conference Monday the same view toward the vacant starting quarterback position that he had following the season-ending loss to Missouri. “Every quarterback that we have on our roster will be competing for that starting job Sept. 3 against the University of Northern Iowa,” Rhoads said. Jantz and the other nine quarterbacks on the ISU roster will get their first opportunity to showcase their talents at Jack Trice Stadium in the 2011 Spring Game.

Women’s basketball

Iowa State gains momentum, continues winning streak 3-pointers carry Cyclones to a win against Cowgirls

Bolte delivers another strong performance

By Kelsey.Jacobs iowastatedaily.com An explosion of three-pointers in the second half carried the Cyclones to a 79-59 win over Oklahoma State on Wednesday, giving the team three straight wins. Despite the win, Iowa State (16-5, 4-3 Big 12) faced opposition from Oklahoma State (13-7, 1-6), mostly in the form of the Cowgirls’ nine offensive rebounds. Oklahoma State’s forceful defense also earned 16 fouls in the first half. “They were playing really aggressive in the first half,” said senior Kelsey Bolte. “We were in the oneand-one with 14 minutes in the [first half] and we just took advantage of that and kept benefiting from their aggressive play.” For the Cyclones, the first half of the game was marked by a balanced attack from their offense, which included five three-pointers. The team shot 50 percent for both field goals and behind the arc. The Cyclones have struggled with an equal spread of scoring in the Big 12 season, with the primary scorer being Kelsey Bolte. Bolte had 12 points the first half, but three other Cyclones helped her out with seven points each. “Bolte has carried us a long time and now the other people are learning their roles,” said coach Bill Fennelly. “We’re finding other people to step into their roles and makes some baskets.” In the second half, the Cyclones started to find three-pointers during transitions. The team had six three-pointers in the first eight minutes of the half, coming from four different players. “It just seemed like [the three-pointers] came at really, really good times for our team,” Fennelly said. “Not just at a good time in the game, but good time for the spirit and mood of the person who shot them.” Freshman Hallie Christofferson contributed six of the Cyclones’ 33 second-half points from the arc

and contributed a total of 15 points and four assists. Her progression this season hasn’t gone unnoticed. “She was the best post player on our team tonight,” Fennelly said. “She’s efficient, we make her guard, and she can shoot the three.” The Cyclones ended the second half shooting 60 percent from behind the arc, as opposed to Oklahoma State who hit just 12.5 percent.

Senior guard Kelsey Bolte finished the off the victory over Oklahoma State with 20 points and nine assists, just another impressive performance for Bolte, who is a candidate for the All-American team. This marked the sixth time in conference play this season and ninth time overall that she has scored 20 or more points. She is averaging seven points more per game than her career high of 10.6. “She’s a great player that absolutely understands her role as a go-to player that has to make shots,” said OSU coach Kurt Budke. “I told her after the game that she’s had a great career and I hope I don’t play her again.” As the season continues, Budke probably won’t be the only one feeling that way. Taking a look at her stat sheets throughout the season, the numbers will do nothing short of jump off the page. Bolte is ranked No. 10 in the nation in three-point field goal percentage at 48 percent. While she is on a number of awards lists, accolades are the farthest thing from her mind. Bolte moving into the No. 8 spot on the career scoring list for Iowa State was news to her at the post-game press conference. “I just want to keep winning and keep playing,” Bolte said. “We’re going to go on the road here for two games, so we just need to prepare for that and come together as a team. No game is easy in the Big 12.” While Bolte is clearly the leader of the

team, she is continuing to get help from her teammates. The Cyclones had at least three starters in double figures for the third game in a row. In the victory over the Cowgirls, sophomore center Anna Prins and freshman forward Hallie Christofferson contributed 14 and 15 points off the bench. Prins picked her game up in the second half. After only scoring two points in the first, she picked up 12 in the second. “It was a little frustrating in the first half, but I just came out ready to play and doing what I needed to do to help the team,” Prins said. “We all came out pretty well.”

Track and field

Saina adjusts to Iowa culture, ready to take on new obstacles Kenya native pushes to qualify for nationals By Kevin.Shay iowastatedaily.com When Betsy Saina ďŹ rst stepped foot on the ISU campus in the winter of 2008, she was like most wide-eyed freshman students — unaware of what the future would hold. But, unlike most incoming students, she was not used to the ďŹ erce Midwestern winters capable of canceling classes — like on Wednesday. After all, she was from Eldoret, Kenya, a west-Kenya city located in the African Rift Valley northeast of Lake Victoria with an average high of 79 degrees and low of 48. “My freshman year it was a little bit hard,â€? Saina said. “Because of the winter and all the snow. It was different.â€? Assistant coach Travis Hartke, who helps coach the distance runners, agrees with Saina’s sentiments. “It was a tough adjustment for her because when she ďŹ rst came in it was in the winter term and it was all snowy and everything,â€? Hartke said. “You

know she comes from a warmweather climate, and we would tell her that there was grass underneath the snow and I don’t think that she really ever believed us.â€? Most of all, Saina struggled with cultural differences, such as language. “It was a [cultural] shock, especially at the beginning,â€? Saina said. “With people speaking English all over. In my country we have different languages, with more than 40 tribes ... it’s just different. It was kind of weird at ďŹ rst, but I am getting it.â€? And while Saina was adjusting culturally, she continued to develop her distancerunning skills, and has a legitimate shot at becoming a national champion this year. “She ďŹ nished second in the 10K last year in outdoors,â€? Hartke said. “And she should be able to compete in indoors and is deďŹ nitely one of the top girls in the nation.â€? In her three years at Iowa State, Saina has put up some impressive accomplishments. She was named 2009 Big 12 Outdoor Track & Field Freshman of the year and placed seventh in the 5,000-meter run at the Outdoor Championships that

same year. Last year she ďŹ nished third in the 5,000-meter run at the Big 12 Indoor and Outdoor Championships, as well as second in the 10,000-meter run at the NCAA Track and Field Championships. Assistant coach Kristy Popp has seen an improvement from Saina the past two years. “I wasn’t here for her ďŹ rst season, she came in the spring before I came on,â€? Popp said. “But even just from last fall to this year she just seems a lot more conďŹ dent when she is out racing, in workouts and as an all-around athlete. I think

she’s right there where she needs to be in the 3K, and will be in the 5K as well [by the end of the season].â€? But once again, Saina will have to adjust after her good friend Aliphine Tuliamuk — also from Kenya — decided to transfer before the spring semester to Kansas in order to pursue a nursing degree. “At ďŹ rst we didn’t know she was leaving, and we [the women distance runners] were be-

ginning to get along as a group and it was no funâ€? Saina said. “And it was hard at ďŹ rst, but it’s alright. I’m happy for her.â€? Saina won’t let Tuliamuk’s departure or any other obstacles get in her way as she attempts to compete at nationals. “I feel like the past few years I’ve progressed, and last weekend was really good for me,â€? Saina said, as she ďŹ nished ďŹ rst last weekend in the

3,000-meter run at the Bill Bergan Invitational. “So hopefully I can push to qualify [for nationals] in the 5K and continue to trim time on my 3K.� While it is likely Saina will qualify for nationals in both races — barring any outlying circumstances — she is not going to take anything for granted. And as she said, just take things “step-by-step to get there.�

Cyclones excited for Husker Invitational, change of scenery Teams’ conďŹ dence stays high as they head to Lincoln By Sally.Donlin iowastatedaily.com The ISU men’s and women’s track and ďŹ eld teams will be headed to Lincoln, Neb., this weekend to compete in the Husker Invitational at the Devaney Sports Center. Coach Ihmels is just looking forward to getting his team a change of scenery. “I think this weekend is a great opportunity for us to leave this building,â€? said Ihmels. “We are in here a lot and we just need to get on a bus and get out of town.â€? After placing second in last week’s meet the team’s conďŹ dence is up and it continues working hard, including Ian Warner and Amara Sama. Both made a big impact on the Cyclones’ outcome of last week’s meet. Warner earned ďŹ rst in the 60-meter dash with Sama just .05 seconds behind, and Ihmels has high hopes for the two in the upcoming meet. “Sama and Ian come to practice everyday and go to work and make each other better. They are great kids doing things the right way,â€? Ihmels said. Sama and Warner continue to raise the bar by improving their times each week. “I’m just excited for this week and going to Nebraska,â€? Warner said. Heading to nationals is a possibility for Warner, although he admits it won’t be easy. “I’m going to have to put in some work and run a lot faster than I did today, but I can deďŹ nitely do it,â€? Warner said. On the women’s team, thrower Danielle Frere was sick last week but is looking to recuperate this week and get back on track. “I’m just looking to get back into it,â€? Frere said. “I’m not

expecting any big throws or anything. We’ll just see what happens.â€? The distance runners, for the most part, will not be racing this weekend. They will just be continuing to train. “They are looking good,â€? assistant coach Kristy Popp said. “I think they are excited to get out there and continue racing. I think they’ll beneďŹ t a lot from having the week off.â€? However, the majority of the mid-distance runners will be competing this Popp said. The Cyclones will once again be facing a more challenging ďŹ eld at the Husker Invitational. “The way the schedule is set up makes each week a little bit harder,â€? Ihmels said. The meet will begin with ďŹ eld at 5 p.m. Friday and events on the track beginning at 6 p.m.
