Pressed into defeat

Mountaineers use full-court pressure to beat Cyclones By Ryan.Young @iowastatedaily.com

Midway through the first half, the game was rolling just like many expected — if not more so. No. 13 Iowa State (16-6 overall, 5-4 Big 12) jumped ahead of No. 14 West Virginia (18-4 overall, 7-2 Big 12) early Tuesday night at Hilton Coliseum, going on a quick 10-4 run. The Cyclones would follow that with a 15-4 run, powered in part by a highlight-reel dunk by forward Deonte Burton. Just more than 10 minutes into the game, the Cyclones had built up a 15-point lead. There was no need to worry. It was going according to plan. Yet by the time they left the court, things were entirely different. West Virginia had rallied back, beating Iowa State, 81-76. “This was a tough loss, a frustrating loss,” said ISU coach Steve Prohm. “We played really well, especially in the first half. Foul trouble negated a lot of good things. They figured out how to get back, and we didn’t close the game well. We’ve got to get better than this.” Tuesday’s game mirrored that of the Texas A&M loss last Saturday, when the Cyclones were in control of the game with about four minutes to play, but couldn’t find a way to get the win. The Cyclones had put together an 8-0 run with about four

minutes left against the Mountaineers and seemed to have the game in their hands. But it was far from over. West Virginia didn’t go away, tying the game with just under two minutes to go. From there, the Mountaineers would outlast the Cyclones, picking up two key stops and winning the late-game, free-throw battle. It was over — West Virginia handed Iowa State its second home loss of the season and second loss in a row. “We just got out-toughed,” said forward Georges Niang. “When it came down to making plays and making toughness plays, they just out-toughed us.” Perhaps the biggest difference for the Mountaineers at the end of the game was their fullcourt pressure. Iowa State had no problems breaking WVU coach Bob Huggins’ trademark press early in the game, but by the end, it was too much for the Cyclones to handle. “I think they just sped us up the whole game and got us out of what we wanted to do,” said point guard Monté Morris. “They caused us to [create] a lot of turnovers that led to buckets on the other end. They just got us out of sync tonight. You’ve got to give those guys credit.” The pressure forced 16 team turnovers for the Cyclones, including eight from Niang himself. That, he said, isn’t something that he can let happen again, and he’s taking full responsibility for it. “It starts with me,” Niang said. “Turning the ball over eight times, that’s just unacceptable.

Local experts analyze caucus Dem race close; Rubio strong By Alex.Hanson @iowastatedaily.com Now that the results are official — Ted Cruz is the winner of the Republican Caucus and Hillary Clinton narrowly is the winner of the Democratic Caucus — Iowa State political experts are weighing in on the race and its impact through the next primary states. Mack Shelley, university professor of political science, and Dianne Bystrom, director of the Carrie Chapman Catt Center took part in a forum Tuesday afternoon at the Memorial Union, where they offered their perspective on several different aspects of the race. David Andersen, assistant professor of political science, moderated the forum while offering a few comments. Razor thin margin in the Democratic race The Republican race was called early and several percentage points separated winner Cruz

and second place finisher Donald Trump. On the Democratic side, only a few single delegates separated Clinton and Bernie Sanders. As of noon Tuesday, the Iowa Democratic Party said 100 percent of precincts had been counted and Clinton held a slim lead with 700.59 state delegate equivalents. Sanders had 696.82. “The polling on the Democratic side was all over the place,” Bystrom said. “The polling was telling us it was going to be a very close race and it turned out to be a very close race.” Bystrom said she had predicted the race in media interviews over past few days, but she thought it would be a few points between Clinton and Sanders. Martin O’Malley, who decided to drop out of the Democratic race, failed to meet the 15 percent viability in most precincts. He ended up with 7.61 state delegate equivalents. Rubio has momentum after strong finish Another noteworthy finish was Marco Rubio’s performance on the Republican side. Rubio, currently a senator from Florida, came within just one point of Trump in

the final results — much higher than polling showed him coming into the race. “I think, clearly, Rubio has a lot of momentum coming out of this,” Shelley said. “He finished relatively strong in third — and that does not help Trump at all.” Rubio took criticism early on from Iowans over not spending enough time in the state, but he did make a surge in the state toward the end with lots of campaign events across the state. “I think Rubio’s success and Cruz’s success — and Trump’s failure — can attest to the role of boots on the ground,” Shelley said. “Organization, organization, organization — classic retail politics — sort of won out over Trump’s use of mass media and huge events.” Bystrom noted that Rubio grabbed a lot of support among voters who had not made up their mind completely going into the final days. Several entrance polls conducted by news organizations showed Rubio getting upward of a third of undecided votes leading into the night.

Clinton officially declared winner Virtual tie ends in Clinton victory

At the forum, Mack Shelley said the recent poll conducted by Iowa State University and WHO-HD correctly predicted Cruz as the winner, despite the highly-respected Des Moines Register/ Bloomberg Politics Iowa Poll predicting Trump would win. The numbers were slightly off, but Cruz, who ended up with 28 percent of the vote on Monday night, was polling at 25.8 percent — 7 percent ahead of Trump, who ended up finishing 4 percent behind in Iowa. Carson came in third in the poll and Rubio was forth. Official results show those two flipped, with Rubio in third and Carson in fourth.

Coin tosses decide some delegates In some precincts, unawarded delegates at the county level were given to candidates based on a coin toss. Josh Levitt, press secretary of the Iowa Democratic Party, said the “game of chance” method is not anything new in Democratic caucuses, but this year, the state party was able to track the number because of a new app being used to report results from Microsoft. Typically, the process is used in precincts that have an equal number of supporters, but have an odd number of delegates to award. For example, if 100 Sanders supporters and 100 Clinton supporters showed up to a site with five delegates, the coin flip would be used to award the additional delegate after two were awarded to both sides. In Ames 2-4, there was a dispute over 60 votes that disappeared. Clinton won a coin toss and was awarded the additional delegate, The Des Moines Register reported. Levitt also made it clear that the coin tosses do not award state delegates, instead county delegates — only a few coin tosses statewide could not tip the results, even with the close margin in the 2016 caucus.

Record turnout 220,000 200,000

By Alex.Hanson @iowastatedaily.com Hillary Clinton has officially been declared the winner of Monday’s Iowa Democratic Caucus — the closest Caucus in the party’s history. While many newspapers, including the Daily, sent papers to the press without declaring a winner, and many news networks signed off, the Iowa Democratic Party sent out a release to reporters early Tuesday morning about 2:30 a.m. declaring that Clinton was the winner by just four state delegate equivelants and all but one precinct reporting. Just after noon Tuesday, the party reported that the final precinct in Des Moines had been counted and Clinton led Sanders by just 3.77 delegates. Martin O’Malley, who suspended his cam-

Final candidate to speak at forum

By Sarah.Muller @iowastatedaily.com The search for the next Vice President for Student Affairs continues on

Wednesday with an open forum for Martino Harmon, associate vice president, the final candidate for the position. The forum will take place from 9 to 10 a.m. in the Pioneer Room of the Memorial Union. Harmon has been at Iowa State since the fall of 2013 and recently helped in

the Thielen Student Health Center director search. Harmon is one of three final candidates, who also include Lori Reesor, vice president for Student Affairs at the University of North Dakota, and Al Thompson, vice chancellor for Student Affairs and chief diversity officer at the University of Wisconsin.

StuGov to discuss Yik Yak Senate to talk cyberbullying By Zach.Clemens @iowastatedaily.com Cyberbullying, Campustown security cameras and the CyRide budget will be among the topics discussed at Wednesday’s Student Government meeting. Student Government recognizes that anonymous social media use has risen

among campus community members. With mobile applications such as Whisper and Yik Yak gaining popularity, there is a concern that some of the posts could turn harmful and malicious. The Senate will discuss a resolution to ask university administration to examine current university policies regarding anonymous cyberbullying and make changes accordingly. A resolution will be discussed that calls for the city of Ames to implement security cameras in Cam-

pustown. There are currently no such cameras in place and they can be used by Ames police to deter and investigate crimes. Student Government will also debate a bill to call for increased funding of CyRide. Iowa does not fund bus replacement or expansion capital costs and more than 50 percent of CyRide’s bus fleet has exceeded its useful life of 12 years. The bill would request that state legislature allocate $25 million in funding per year for the next five years.

Monologues raise awareness By Andi.Schieszler @iowastatedaily.com In support of V-Day, the Vagina Monologues will be performed at 7 p.m. Wednesday and at 6 p.m. and 9 p.m. Thursday in the sun room of the Memorial Union. Tickets are available in advance for $10 for ISU Students and $13 for the general public, with a $2 increase on the day of the show. Tickets can be purchased via Midwestix and are also available at the Maintenance Shop box office. Proceeds from the play

will support the Ames, Iowa, ACCESS center and the VDay Spotlight Campaign. Written by Eve Ensler in 1996, the Vagina Monologues is a way to raise awareness of the violence women endure, according to the Margaret Sloss Women’s Center website. Ensler interviewed more than 200 women as a way to get their voice into the open and discuss topics that are generally ignored. V-Day is designed to raise awareness of violences committed toward women, including assault, battery, female genital mutilation, rape, incest and sex slavery. It is trying to end this

violence and raise money for efforts against women’s violence. Like many other organizations, ACCESS is a local assault care center that offers information online and provides support for people going through domestic and sexual violence situations. As a way to try and earn additional funds for ACCESS, the Margaret Sloss Women’s Center will sell merchandise from 8 a.m. to 5 p.m. through Thursday at the Margaret Sloss house and from 11 a.m. to 2 p.m. at the Memorial Union booth. A detailed list on what the center will sell is available on its website.

Beginning of a new era Madden joins 2015-16 staffing changes at ISU

From left, Mohammad Ali is the current campus dining director, James Dorsett is the former International Students and Scholars director, Pamela Anthony is the former dean of students and Warren Madden announced Tuesday that he is retiring as the senior vice president for business and finance.

“There is no road map, it’s a brand new position,” Anthony said in an interview regarding the position. After Robinette Kelley left the position as director of the Office of Equal Opportunity, Mary Howell Sirna, the administrative adviser for ISU Police, has been taking on the role of interim director. Sirna will be in the position until a new director is hired. There are currently four finalists for the position, all of whom will visit campus sometime in February. Leaving in March of 2015, as the former International Students and Scholars (ISSO) director, James Dorsett is currently residing at Michigan State, serving as the campus ISSO director. Deb Vance, the current assistant director of ISSO, has taken over as the interim director as the position is awaiting to be filled. “I’ve been in this office for over 30 years, so for me and everyone else it’s not a big change,” Vance said. However, because the ISSO Director is under the control of the senior vice president for Student Affairs, an office yet to be filled, the search for a replacement will be put on hiatus for the time being.

Hired at the start of January, Mohammad Ali has begun work as the current campus dining director. Initiatives for Ali include addressing issues of overcrowding among students as well as creating more healthy or organic options at the dining centers. “There are more resources available, not just produce but with meats, chicken,” Ali said in a previous interview. “It’s amazing. And the ability to build relationships with local farmers, there is just more opportunity [in Iowa].” The previous director, Nancy Keller, stepped down in January of last year to pursue a job as the resident district manager at Gonzaga University. As of August, Joyce Davidson has been residing as the interim director of the Student Counseling Center. Much like the director of the ISSO position, the counseling center reports to the senior vice president for Student Affairs, making the task of hiring unavailable until that position is filled. The former director, Terry Mason, left in July of 2015 after 22 years of service. He now works as the president of Synergy Counseling and Consultation in Ames.

After Tom Hill retired from the role of senior vice president for Student Affairs in December, the university was tasked with creating a search for a replacement in a timely manner because of the magnitude of the position. “This is the person that leads the most important aspect of any university, the students,” said Michael Crum, the lead coerce of the senior vice president for Student Affairs search and part of the Office of Economic Development. “There are over 10 different units that report to the position including multicultural organizations, student services and dining.” A committee of close to 16 members, including three students, sorted through applications and conducted face-to-face interviews until only three people remained. Open forums for these candidates began Jan. 26 and will continue through next week, with the position expected to be filled within a month. ”We haven’t been skipping a beat at all; Dr. Hill provided us with great leadership and we are hoping to find someone who can carry on that tradition and help us grow further,” Crum said.

United Way exceeds goals Organization raises more than $2 million By Mitchel.Anderson @iowastatedaily.com The United Way of Story County teamed up with ISU faculty and staff again in 2015 to help achieve its fundraising goal and to set a new record. About $2.1 million was raised by the United Way of Story County, with the help of the $441,820 raised by Iowa State. “We’re very, very fortunate in Story County in the fact that we have a very philanthropic community, and in addition we have 31 partner agencies that also support our efforts,” said Jean Kresse, United Way of Story County CEO. ISU Provost Jonathan Wickert was the 2015 Live United Campaign chairman. Wickert said Iowa State, the largest employer campaign in Story County, exceeded its own goal by more than $26,000. In addition to bake sales and book sales, a few ISU faculty members got creative with their fundraising efforts. “Warren Madden did something where he auc-

By Ellen.Bombela and Jake.Dalbey @iowastatedaily.com

Since the start of 2015, Iowa State has experienced multiple faculty changes throughout the year, leaving eight major roles either open, controlled by an interim director or under new management. ISU President Steven Leath announced on his Twitter account Tuesday night the retirement of Warren Madden, the senior vice president for business and finance. Pamela Anthony, who has been the dean of students since August 2012, made the decision to leave Iowa State. “It’s time for me to start a new adventure,” Anthony said in a previous interview. Anthony left for the position of vice president for Student Affairs at Southern Methodist University in Dallas. For the time being, Keith Robinder is serving as the interim dean of students until a new dean is hired. The search for a new dean will begin once the new vice president for Student Affairs is named in the spring. Erin Baldwin took over as the director of Thielen Health Center on Jan. 4. “I am really anxious to get to campus and get to work to make the health center the best for students,” Baldwin said in a previous interview. Baldwin took over after the previous director, Michelle Hendricks, retired. Both Martino Harmon, associate vice president for Student Affairs, and Mary Hensley, a retired administrator from the University of Minnesota, took turns serving as interim directors of the health center while the search was underway for a new one. As of Dec. 1, Reginald Stewart has been taking on the role of vice president for diversity and inclusion. This position is new to Iowa State.

tioned off his parking spot,” Wickert said. “David Giles over in electrical and computer engineering had some sort of chess competition. He had something where he’d be blindfolded and play you in chess, or he’d simultaneously play 20 matches at once, and if he beat you, you had to donate to United Way.” Kresse said the overall fundraising goal for last year was increased to $2.1 million from $2 million in 2014. That mark was exceeded by $18,612. The United Way of Story County uses fundraising cash to fund services in Story County and to improve the quality of life in the community, especially in the areas of education, health and income. Kresse said setting fundraising goals is an important aspect of the process. “We look at what happened this last year and what was unique when we set a goal taking all things into consideration,” Kresse said. “For example, the downturn in the farm economy impacted some of our businesses, so we take that into account, too.” One of the unique opportunities the United Way was able to use last year will not be around this year. “We were in partnership with Applebee’s, and for every Hoiburger they sold, a dollar would come to the United Way,” Kres-

A total of 18 undergraduate students involved in the Catt Center’s Vermeer Leadership Program traveled to the Netherlands during winter break, touring Vermeer’s facilities, speaking with workers and executives at Vermeer and exploring Amsterdam. The Vermeer Leadership Program is a new program on campus through the Vermeer Company out of Pella, Iowa. “We saw an opportunity with the leadership program at Iowa State to help students build up their leadership skills,” said Liz Sporrer, a Vermeer employee. “We really value education at Vermeer and we wanted to help students develop these skills.” The program is aimed toward students in engineering, business and agriculture, however all undergraduate students are encouraged to apply. Students accepted into the program have to take two leadership courses during that academic year, one in the fall and one in the spring. Cameron Beatty, lecturer in psychology, teaches the class. While in the Netherlands, they toured the Vermeer facility and spoke with workers at the corporation. The students said this trip was completely paid for by Vermeer, with the exception of a few meals. When students were not at Vermeer, they were able to tour famous places in Amsterdam such as the Anne Frank Museum. These classes provide a unique experience for the students involved. Unlike many college classes, these students get the opportunity to learn with the same group of people throughout the year. While most college students get to know their classmates, they do not get the chance to get close to them and understand them throughout the course of the year. Three students involved in the program, Maddy Sislow, senior in animal ecology, Alex DeGaetano, junior in industrial technology, and Carter Kemmet, senior in statistics, said this class has given them a chance to get to know their peers well and form bonds that will

last outside the classroom. Along with this, they also learned a great deal about leadership and networking. DeGaetano said was one experience that stuck out was meeting executives at Vermeer and being able to have personal conversations. “We learned a lot about leadership through the two classes that we had to take and just by being in a group with each other and learning about all the people at Vermeer,” Sislow said. Kemmet said the opportunity offered the chance to build up good leadership skills. “Even if you’re not taking a managerial position you still have the experience of working with the groups of people in an effective manner,” Kemmet said. The program has been successful in the eyes of both Vermeer and Iowa State. Vermeer employee Sara Hunter has been impressed by the students. “The talent,” Hunter said stuck out. “I think the 18 students selected would be top-notch talent … These students are very, very talented.” Beatty has also been impressed with how well his students are doing while learning these leadership skills and interviewing Vermeer officials this past fall. For him, the most special part was being able to interact with students for the entire year. The students involved this year were selected last year out of a pool of 82 students. In order to apply, one must be an undergraduate student, preferably with at least two years of school left. The students then had to write essays, provide a résumé and be interviewed and were selected from there. The applications for next year are due at 8 a.m. Monday. The interviews will be conducted Feb. 13, and students will know if they have been selected by March 1. Both Beatty and the students encouraged others to apply if they are not sure of their chances. “Apply. Even if you’re on the fence about it,” Beatty said. “You can’t get in if you don’t apply.” Sislow encouraged everyone to apply, even if they do not think they are qualified. “Don’t think that you couldn’t get in because I thought that, and then I applied,” she said. They’re looking for a diverse group, so take a chance.”

Thielen Student Health Center’s sole psychiatrist was recently named a Distinguished Fellow of the American Psychiatric Association (APA). Dr. Carver Nebbe, psychiatrist and chief of medical staff at the Health Center, was nominated by the Iowa Psychiatric Society for the award. Nebbe joined the Health Center in 2007 and serves as the only psychiatrist on campus. Each year, the Iowa Psychiatric Society nominates members who it believes meet the APA’s requirements for making contributions in areas such as administration, teaching, community involvement, scholarship

and volunteer work. To be considered, nominees must also have been general members of the APA for at least eight years and have made significant contributions in their field. “I honestly don’t think of myself as a distinguished fellow,” Nebbe said. “I’m kind of excited to have gotten it because I’ve never really seen myself in the light of people who have gotten [this award]. It was really a change in self-perception.” After being nominated by the Iowa Psychiatric Society, Nebbe had to fill out an application to be considered. Nebbe said the application process was extensive and included submitting seven letters of recommendation. “The fellowship represents a testament to the quality of care that he provides to his patients,” said Erin Baldwin, director of the Thielen Health Center.

large student population saw a massive boost in turnout compared to 2012. “We could tell as soon as they opened that we were going to have definitely record turnout,” said Brett Barker, chairman of the Story County Republican Party. “The turnout was hundreds of people higher than historical [caucuses in some precincts].” According to a tally of votes from the Story County GOP, some precincts had more than double the turnout than 2012. In Ames 4-1, which includes most of Campustown, 524 people voted compared to 201 in 2012. In Ames 4-2 and 4-3, which are the two precincts covering Richardson Court and Union Drive dorms on the Iowa State campus, 548 voted this year compared to 277 in 2012. “What I’m pretty proud of is that our vol-

unteers county-wide were able to handle all of the curveballs thrown and we had a smooth caucus,” Barker said. He added that many volunteers in precincts near Iowa State were staffed by college-aged volunteers who were participating in their first caucus. “A lot of the volunteers, especially the ones hit hardest, were college students running those precincts,” Barker said. “I was very impressed by those students being able to handle that, get everybody in and have a well-run caucus.” Charlie Szold, a spokesperson for the Iowa Republican Party, said the party has been preparing for a large turnout for awhile now. 2016’s number shatters the attendance record that was set in 2012, when 121,503 turned out. “We expected record turnout, we expected to

go over 120,000, but nobody could have expected we’d have 50 percent higher turnout,” Szold said. “We have been training for more than a year ... we trained, trained and trained for such a scenario where something unexpected would happen.” Democrats do not release the raw number of voters at individual counties or precincts, but they did report that 171,517 voters caucused for Democrats Monday. Both the Iowa Democratic and Republican Parties partnered with Microsoft on an app to report results. In 2012, the Republican race results were delayed because of some reporting issues. Both parties did not have any major issues with reporting despite the large turnout. “Everybody was able to get those reported through the app with no issue,”

Barker said. Some rural precincts had issue with cell phone connections, he said, but no issues with the actual usage of the app. Szold said they did not have 100 percent usage of the app because, once again, some precincts had cell phone connection issues, or a volunteer had a problem remembering specific instructions for the app. Mack Shelley, a professor of political science, told the Daily Monday night that an official at a precinct he attended in Ames had trouble using the app because he was no properly trained. “One of our top goals this year was to train as many chairs as possible in using the app, and we saw lots of excitement for using the app last night,” said Josh Levitt, press secretary of the Iowa Democratic Party. “We are very proud of our partnership with Microsoft and the RPI.”

kept news organizations from calling the race because of such a close margin. “Our top priority is to ensure our results are accurate,” said Josh Levitt, press secretary of the Iowa Democratic Party. “Last night’s caucus was the closest in Iowa Democratic Party history.” Both parties were using an app designed by Microsoft in an effort to report results faster. While Clinton is technically the winner, Iowa awards national delegates proportionally, meaning Sanders will be awarded just about as many delegates as Clinton. Clinton said Monday night in Des Moines she was breathing a “sigh of relief” beacuse of the results in Iowa — the state she ended up losing to thenSen. Barack Obama in 2008. Sanders, although in second, said Monday night’s close results in the state were a victory for the “political revolution.” Both candidates quickly flew out of the state early Tuesday monring ahead of snow, both landing in New Hampshre in the early hours as final results were announed.

#OscarsNOTsowhite Race does not influence Academy Award nominations By Courtney.Carstens @iowastatedaily.com

nd the nominees for Best Picture are ... all white? The nominees for best Actor in a Leading Role are...all white? The nominees for best Actor in a Supporting Role are ... all white? Since the #Oscarssowhite trend exploded with popularity on social media sites such as Twitter and Instagram, some of Hollywood’s most successful directors, actors and actresses such as Spike Lee, George Clooney, Mark Ruffalo, Will Smith and Jada Pinkett Smith started officially boycotting the Oscars. Their individual reasons may differ, but these Hollywood greats believe boycotting this prestigious award show will send a message to members of the academy about how the industry needs to be more diverse. But perhaps this boycott is not entirely warranted. “Straight Outta Compton,” which features main characters of color, has not been nominated for an award, and the producer of the film believes these movies are not being nominated because of discrimination. However, this dispute begs the question — how can they know that? Is it so hard to believe that movies starring individuals from diverse backgrounds did not make the cut because it did not fit the criteria that those who voted were looking for? Another major critique that has been made of the academy is that those who vote for nominees have a white male majority. Oscar voters are 94 percent Caucasian and 77 percent male. African Americans make up about 2 percent of the academy, and Latinos are less than 2 percent, according to the Los Angeles Times. Many could argue that this is why those who snag a nomination are predominantly white. However, it is hard to picture that when inspirational, widely-known supporters of diversity like Tom Hanks, Sidney Poitier, Meryl Streep and Steven Spielberg among Hollywood’s most influential members. Hollywood giants have been openly pushing for diversity so an argument of malicious action is questionable. I believe it is not due to race that those who get nominated are primarily white. It is because the process in order to get to vote for the Oscar Nominees is so intricate.

Columnist Carstens argues Oscar nominations are not racially motivated and are instead a reflection of the demographics of the U.S. population.

The negativity surrounding this all-white nomination has been controversial during the 2015-2016 award season, however a primarily white nomination cannot be blamed on those who are in charge of or who vote for the Oscars. The population of minority actors and actresses cast in major films is extremely low, so in return the nominations wiforth people of color have to be low as well. According to the CIA World Factbook, the United States population is made up of 79.96 percent of caucasians, 12.85 percent of Black or African Americans and less than five percent for other ethnicities. It is not fair to assume that those who are voting for the Oscar nominees are being racist or that Hollywood in general still has some lingering racial problems when the majority choice for casting is caucasians. Those who are in charge of casting do not have a large pool of ethnically diverse people to choose from so we can not expect them to just pick someone of color just for the sake of being diverse. When those in charge of casting figure out nominees they have to choose the people who they believe are going to do the best job. The same goes for those who decide who the nominees will be, they are voting for the best nominee

whether it be Best Picture, Best Actor in a Leading Role or Best Actor in a Supporting Role, the voters are looking for the characteristics that make the movie, actor or actress suitable for a nomination. This does not include race or sexual orientation. This is another example of the media and our society allowing things to be blown out of proportion. While it would be nice to see actors and actresses of color get a nomination because some of them really do deserve recognition, it is ultimately out of our hands and trying to make a bigger deal out of the lack of diversity of nominations is essentially bullying those who are just trying to do their job. Why as a nation must we always think the worst? Why is it assumed that the reason someone or something does not win is because of race or sexual orientation? Can it be said that not everyone is out to get those who are not white heterosexuals? We need to believe that what is being done is not hinged on race or sexual orientation. We are in the 21st century and while racism and bigotry still exist, most of the time that is not the case. Stop the #Oscarssowhite, we need to be together as one and not as a nation that picks each other apart because of race or another indicators of difference.

LETTERS TO THE EDITOR

Discontinue Donald Trump’s evilness By Oscar Harward Iowa State Daily Reader It may be that Donald Trump’s Democrat Party wicked ‘values’ are revealing. I have often said that President Obama’s dishonesties begin only when his mouth is moving and noises come out. Donald Trump may have taken up President Obama’s habit as both men twist truthfulness.

For example; take a bucket of clear water, add mud to the bucket and stir the water as the muddy water then grows into a river. Trump’s untruthfulness leaves conservatives uneasy on 2016 Republican Party candidate, Sen. Ted Cruz, R-Texas. Trump’s campaign untruthfulness’s have turned into his own slime. I have been actively involved in Republican Party conservative politics for more than

50 years. I have always supported the GOP’s presidential nominee. I will now, not vote for Donald Trump under ‘any’ condition. My values are not for sale. My decision has been reached within the last few days. While I have been following the political career of Texan Ted Cruz for several years, I joined the Sen. Ted Cruz for President undertaking as he announced his candidacy; one of America’s

most qualified candidates, ever, in U.S. History. Sen. Ted Cruz is a true Christian constitutionalist who has the knowledge, ability, resolve and the wisdom to restore our America and our Constitution based on Judeo-Christian values. Donald Trump’s actions represent an effort to destroy any and all GOP competitors. As for me, the Donald Trump destruction of good people ends here; today.

John Kasich prepared for presidency By Khayree Fitten Junior in Political Science John Kasich has the compassion that is necessary for a leader of this nation.

Kasich values education and health care, and he is determined to build paths to allow people to lead themselves out of poverty. In Ohio, Kasich has managed to cut $5 billion of taxes

while simultaneously creating over 300,000 job to get people back to work. Kasich’s experience in Washington and in Ohio have prepared him to lead and to work through gridlock and bi-

partisan disagreements. If there’s a Republican who can lead and unite the country, it is John Kasich: the only candidate to prove that he can use conservative policy to get real results.

5 EDITORIAL

Equality director must be relatable Iowa State is in a state of change this academic year. Among changing numerous head coaches, the university is also in the midst of changing multiple university leadership roles, including: a new Thielen Student Health Center director, a created position of vice president for diversity and inclusion, the search for a new senior vice president for Student Affairs and now, a director of the Office of Equal Opportunity. The Office of Equal Opportunity’s name is pretty self explanatory in its mission. The office, catering to students and university employees, defines the discrimination and harassment policy; offers resources and information regarding sexual assault; delivers harassment-prevention and recognition training; deals with disability and religious accommodations; handles complaints and more. Those occupying the office have an immense responsibility to uphold a high standard of ethics to ensure everyone at Iowa State has a safe, reliable place to go if they have issues in any of these areas. The finalists for the job are: • Sharon Abraham, director of the office of diversity and affirmative action at Eastern Michigan University, Ypsilanti; • Ellyn Bartges, director of the office for institutional equity and access at St. Cloud State University, Minnesota; • Margo Foreman, associate director of the office of equal opportunity at Indiana University-Purdue University Indianapolis; • Jyl Shaffer, Title IX coordinator at the University of Cincinnati. All of these candidates currently hold positions that would lend themselves to a smooth enough transition into the lead position of equal opportunity at Iowa State. The ideal candidate must recognize our campus’ specific uniquenesses, especially in light of the heightened awareness across the nation regarding discrimination on college campuses. The Office of Equal Opportunity holds diversity and inclusion training for faculty and staff. This person must be prepared to revamp said training, and deliver it in an effective way. This person must also work closely with other departments, so he or she must be dedicated to coordinate with multiple areas. At the Sept. 30, 2015, diversity open forum in the Great Hall, one student shared an instance where he went to the Office of Equal Opportunity to file a complaint and received no assistance because when he went to the office no one was there. While that is likely a rare event, the director must be prepared to work with students who aren’t sure of the process. Lastly, although there is always more work than can be stated, transparency is one of the most key aspects to this position. The director should be open and regularly interact with students on a basis other than if that student is in some sort of distress. The director should make campus aware of what he or she is doing to integrate policy, encourage tolerance and maintain that transparency through any process he or she creates. The ISU discrimination and harassment policy states: “Iowa State University does not discriminate on the basis of race, color, age, ethnicity, religion, national origin, pregnancy, sexual orientation, gender identity, genetic information, sex, marital status, disability, or status as a U.S. veteran. “Iowa State University prohibits harassment, which can be a form of discrimination if it is unwelcome and is sufficiently severe or pervasive and objectively offensive so as to substantially interfere with a person’s work or education.”

Editorial Board

Deportation presents unreasonable solution By Drew Kamp Director, Story County Communication Outreach Director, Government Relations for the Ames Chamber of Commerce This election cycle has raised many issues, but one that is broad and far-reaching and merits additional attention and discussion is immigration reform and its impact on the American economy and workforce.

Realistic and practical plans are needed to address the current immigration system and the 11.5 million undocumented immigrants residing within the United States. Deportation of immigrants is not a reasonable or economical option and real solutions are needed to address this glaring issue. The cost of the deportation option alone would cripple the economy and require an expansion of the state that is unsustainable and impractical

both economically and administratively. The Ames Chamber of Commerce recognizes that the issue of immigration needs to be discussed. This week, we are partnering with a local immigration group, the Iowa Alliance for Growth, to facilitate a roundtable discussion with local business, community and institutional leaders. We will discus the importance of immigration reform and how this issue impacts our

community and economy. The immigration system needs to be reformed, and presidential candidates must address this issue and outline ways to simplify and expand the H-2A and H-1B visa programs to attract and retain the best and brightest, while ensuring the vetting process encompasses all security needs not only to keep America ahead of the curve, but safe and secure as well. It’s high time to see who’s actually prepared to lead a 21stcentury America.

5 Takeaways from Iowa State’s loss Rebounding, fouls plague Cyclones By Chris.Wolff @iowastatedaily.com West Virginia coach Bob Huggins provided some added motivation for his team ahead of its game against Iowa State. Huggins distributed copies of a newspaper headline that read “Mess Virginia” and questioned his team’s toughness to his players. That added some motivation, Huggins said after beating Iowa State at Hilton Coliseum. “Trying to wear a white hat,” Huggins said, trying to hold back his feelings on that article. “I’ve been wearing a black one all these years.” Whatever the reason, West Virginia stormed into Hilton Coliseum and thoroughly blew away the Cyclones in a few pivotal categories that led to an ISU loss. After leading by as many as 15 in the first half, Iowa State saw its lead dwindle. West Virginia took a lead, Iowa State tied it up, but couldn’t find enough to come through with a win. Here are five takeaways from the loss: 1. Rebounding Iowa State got pounded on the glass, losing the battle of the boards, 43-26. The Cyclones nearly allowed the Mountaineers more offensive rebounds (17) than the Cyclones had defensive rebounds (18). When asked what allowed West Virginia to come back from a 15-point deficit, Abdel Nader’s answer was pretty direct. “Offensive rebounding,” Nader said.

McKay and Nader combined for nine total rebounds, while West Virginia’s Devin Williams pulled down 18 by himself. McKay had four total rebounds and zero defensive rebounds. “It was tough boxing out those guys,” Morris said. “I mean, we fought. We fought. Sometimes it’s just the roll of the ball and tonight it was West Virginia’s night.” 2. Press Virginia Huggins referred to a newspaper article that nicknamed his team “Mess Virginia,” but the Mountaineers are much more commonly called “Press Virginia” because of their full-court press and constant ball pressure. That was on full display against Iowa State. The Cyclones handled the pressure with ease for most of the first half, and built up a lead in doing so, but the pressure caught up to them. Iowa State turned the ball over 16 times, some of which led to easy scores for West Virginia. “I think they just sped us up the whole game, got us out of what we wanted to do,” Morris said. “They caused a lot of turnovers that led to buckets on the other end. I don’t care what kind of team you play at this level, you turn the ball over and they go score down there. “It’s tough on everybody.” 3. Morris vs. Press The team as a whole struggled with the press at times, but Morris thrived. Morris has always been known for his ball security, but it becomes even more impressive given the pressure he faced. Morris dished out 10 assists and had zero turnovers against ‘Press Virginia’ in the 39 minutes he played. “I don’t know what number [he would be ranked], but he’s got to be one of the best point guards

in America,” Huggins said of Morris after the game. 4. Fouls A side effect of West Virginia’s constant pressure defense is typically a lot of fouls. The Mountaineers are third in the nation with 24.2 fouls per game. Iowa State,

however, has the fewest fouls per game in the country at 14.9 per contest. For whatever reason, that was not the case Tuesday night. West Virginia still racked up its fair share of fouls with 19, but Iowa State had an unusually high 20

fouls in the game. 5. Free-throw woes With fouls comes free throws. West Virginia hit on 17-of-22 free throws. “They made free throws down the stretch,” Prohm said of the Mountaineers. Iowa State, on the other

hand, did not. The Cyclones finished the game 11-of-19 from the line. Not great, but not awful either. The real issues came in the second half, when Iowa State shot just 6-for-13 — under 50 percent — to close the game.

Women’s basketball snaps streak Iowa State gets first win in five contests By Trey.Alessio @iowastatedaily.com

Freshman forward Meredith Burkhall shoots the ball against Kansas on Jan. 9 at Hilton Coliseum.

The ISU women’s basketball team’s last win came against Kansas on Jan. 9 at Hilton Coliseum. The Cyclones took its first win in five games Tuesday night in Lawrence, Kan., 63-53. Iowa State started on an early 9-0 run in the first quarter. The Jayhawks made a comeback to end Iowa State’s run and nailed a buzzerbeater to tie the game at 13 going into the first intermission. The Cyclones also only shot 20 percent from behind the arc in the first quarter. Early in the second quarter, it was a back-and-forth affair between both teams. Iowa State missed some free throws, which allowed Kansas to pick up some

momentum. The Jayhawks went on a 10-0 run to end the first half with a 28-18 lead against the Cyclones. Iowa State’s offensive funk continued in the first half, finishing 26.9 percent from the field and 14.3 percent from 3-point range. The Cyclones chipped away at the Jayhawks lead throughout the third quarter. Iowa State jumped to a six-point lead but went into the fourth quarter with a 43-38 lead. Iowa State came out firing in the fourth quarter, but Kansas tied it up at 45-45 about a minute in. From there on out, the Cyclones put their foot on the gas pedal and didn’t look back. They got up to a 10-point lead, which would remain until the end of the game. Guard Seanna Johnson led Iowa State with 20 points. Buckley played the role of facilitator and scorer as she notched a double-double with 14 points and 11 assists. Freshman Meredith Burkhall also recorded a double-double with 11 points and 12 rebounds, a career high.

Lack of snow doesn’t stop Nordic Ski Club By Jack.MacDonald @iowastatedaily.com Nordic skiing, a sport that is made for cold weather and constant snow, has leaked into the middle of Iowa, which is not an ideal location for someone looking to ski. However, the ISU Nordic Ski Club has found a way to make it work. The club is made up of students primarily from Minnesota, and the switch from Minnesota weather to Iowa weather was an eye-opener in terms of the inconsistent snowfall. Iowa winter can change from sun to snow in a matter of hours, which

doesn’t bode well for the club. “We need at least a couple inches of snow to have even mediocre skiing conditions,” said Hunter Follen, senior in mechanical engineering. “It has to snow and it has to stay cold enough for the snow to stick around.” Possibly the biggest challenge besides the lack of snow is the lack of ski trails. Many of the club’s members from Minnesota say there are trails all over their state, but in Iowa, there are only a few trails scattered around the area. Without trails, it makes it hard for the club to practice and get into race shape. “In East Ames, there

are some ski trails that we practice on,” said club president Adam Cich. “Those trails are only good when there is snow on the ground though.” Cich said some members use roller skis, which are skis that have rollerblades on them. That is as close as you can get to actually skiing on snow when there is no snow. Cich also said the club uses rowing machines at State Gym and Lied Recreation Athletic Center to work the skiing muscles. Because of the lack of snow, the club rarely competes in races in Iowa. Typically, the members travel to Minnesota or Wisconsin

to compete. One of the biggest races in the country is the American Birkebeiner, more commonly know as the “Birkie” in the ski community. The event is scheduled to take place Feb. 18 to 21 in Hayward, Wis. The Birkie spans over 50 kilometers of rough terrain and sometimes includes treacherous conditions. Even with the long distance, Cich said the feeling after the race isn’t like running a marathon because racers use their upper and lower bodies along with their core. Runners typically focus on their core and lower body when competing in a

marathon, Cich said. This is the one event for which every ISU racer gears up. While racers represent Iowa State, they are not part of a collegiate league. The club can participate in any race with any age group — all it needs is snow. The lack of snow hasn’t stopped the club from trying to expand, but a lack of knowledge about the sport has limited it. Not many students come from high schools where Nordic skiing is a varsity sport. “Right now we have around 12 active members,” Cich said. “Our goal is to get as many people as possible to continue to ski.”

American Birkebeiner The American Birkebeiner is one of the largest and longest Nordic ski races in North America. Known as the “Birkie” to the ski community, about 10,000 skiers participate in it each year. Skiers from around the world come to compete in the event that started in 1973.

Cauliflower bites provide an easy treat to make for a Super Bowl party. The ingredients you will need are water, all-purpose flour, garlic powder, cauliflower florets, Franks Hot Sauce and butter.

Spice up Super Bowl Sunday Try these tips, treats for your football party By Brittany.Moon @iowastatedaily.com Super Bowl Sunday is a day that many sports fanatics look forward to right when the NFL season begins. For some, it is a day to watch their favorite team win a championship. For others, it is simply a day spent with friends, watching the half time show and commercials with plenty of appetizers, snacks and drinks to go around. The key to throwing a successful, and most of all fun Super Bowl soiree, is to know who you are throwing it for.

Talk to your friends who will attend the party. Ask for suggestions for appetizers or what some of their favorite snacks are. With luck, you may be able to whip up a few things everyone will love. Preparing the dishes can be almost as fun as eating them. Delegating a few small tasks to other attendees can make your life much easier. Decorations can be left up to discretion. If your party will mainly be your college buddies, they probably won’t care as much about the decorations you took a ton of time to put together. Focusing on providing good food and drink will be your best bet. Many options exist when it comes to deciding which foods will be best for this event. Dips of any kind are usually a safe bet, since

they are relatively casual and can be shared. Another popular dish served during the Super Bowl is hot wings or pizza. In order to stick to those New Year’s resolutions, but still throw an awesome party, there are a few options for healthier pizza and wings. One option would be to make a cauliflower pizza crust to cut out carbs but maintain an almost identical taste. Another option is to make cauliflower buffalo wings. Another bonus of this option is if any of your vegetarian friends watch the Super Bowl with you. Below is a simple cauliflower buffalo wing recipe with Greek yogurt dipping sauce. Cauliflower bites Ingredients • 1 cup water

Exercise apps make working out easier By Molly.Hawks @iowastatedaily.com Personal trainers are perfect to whip anyone into shape. They create the workout, motivate clients and make sure the workouts are getting done and done correctly. The problem is personal trainers can be expensive. Workout scheduling can be easy. Thanks to the Internet, making a workout schedule and sticking to it can actually be made possible. Getting up or finding the time to go to the gym can seem hard. The motivation is there but the motivation to watch Netflix is stronger. Before anything can be accomplished, sitting down and establishing workout goals is essential. Look for role models or

figure out what parts of the body need to be focused on. Setting goals will help create the vision of what all of that hard work is going toward. Now comes the workout planning, which can be scary. Many different types of workouts and views on what workouts are good or bad exist. This step can quickly become overwhelming. This is when the Internet can come in handy. Two relatively unknown apps that deserve more credit are the Nike Training and Nike Running apps. As popular as Nike is, these apps are hidden gems. The Training app will create a personalized four-week program based on the level and type of desired fitness. It will go though a series of questions that ask if the program should target burning fat, toning the body or build-

ing some serious muscle. It will then ask if the workouts should be beginner, intermediate or advanced. Be honest when answering this question; the beginner level is surprisingly difficult. Lastly, the Nike Training app will ask if running should be incorporated into the program — this is when the Running app can be helpful. This app is a wonder for anyone who runs or is considering becoming a runner. The app tracks distance, average pace per mile and gives mile marker notifications as you go. The app will also show the running route and color codes it based on variations on pace throughout the run. The Nike Running app can be used in conjunction with the Training app or on its own. After answering all of

the questions for the Nike Training app, users can begin a four-week program. The workouts are usually body weight based, so if the gym is just too far away, they

can be done in the comfort of the living room. The best part of these apps is they are completely free. The workouts simply need to be downloaded to

the phone but nothing costs money. Professionally-designed workouts are at the tip of your finger. The app will track each workout, so skipping is ill advised.

Follow these simple steps to live healthier By Janae.Verhelst @iowastatedaily.com Maintaining a day-today routine that consists of eating healthy and working out is not the only component in living a vigorous and holistic lifestyle. There are many simple and important factors you should take into consideration. Here are some ISU students’ opinions on how to be healthy in small ways. Drink lots of water Drink a minimum of 8 glasses. Exercise a minimum

of 30 minutes to raise your heart rate. Home workouts are a good alternative if there is not enough time to make it to the gym. There are hundreds of free workout videos online that require no signup or any additional fees. Every step counts, so try walking to class instead of taking the bus. Minimize the simple sugars in your life. Avoid artificial, simple and high fructose sugars. Take a multimineral vitamin every morning. Provide nutrients that

your body needs to work properly. Start your day with a healthy breakfast. Breakfast can help your entire day stay on track. Include protein, moderate carbs and low fat to satisfy your hunger until lunch time. Wash your hands. Cell phones have 18 times more bacteria than a public restroom, according to Phonesoap.com Cook at least one meal a day. Although fast food can be cheap and easy,

set aside time to cook one meal a day, whether that be breakfast, lunch or dinner. Craving sweets? Substitute milk and white chocolate for dark chocolate. Dark chocolate is nutritious and provides a healthy dose of antioxidants in low moderation. Pack healthy snacks to munch on throughout the day. Leave the candy and sugars at home and try packing fruits and veggies. Clementines are in season and are the perfect in-between-meals snack.

De-stress your day. When too much homework piles up and classes start to get harder, stress tends to build up and can damage your health in irreversible ways. Stress can make you look older, gain weight and severely damage your heart, according to healthline.com Take time out of your day to relax and put your brain at ease. By taking all of these small, simple health tips and doing them throughout the day, you will raise your attitude and de-stress your life.

LOCAL EXPERTS p1 Bystrom attended an event Rubio hosted at Iowa State on Saturday and said she talked to some voters who were currently supporting establishment candidates such as Jeb Bush, Chris Christie and John Kasich, but decided to strategically back Rubio so he could possibly end up ahead of Trump or Cruz. Rubio’s Iowa surge included two events at Iowa State during the final 10 days of campaigning. “He came here a lot the last eight days, and I think what happened is [a lot of people] were making up their minds in the last few days when he was here,” Bystrom said. Rubio has sort of been relegated to the establishment “lane” of the race, the experts agreed, and it would really take Bush, Christie and Kasich getting beat big for them to drop out. Retail politics still matter While candidates like Trump have seen huge surges in poll numbers after lots of media appearances and coverage, the experts agreed that retail politics still play a large role in the race.

Cruz had a superb organization on the ground, and along with a higher turnout from evangelical voters, Cruz was able to beat Trump, Bystrom and Shelley said. “I bet on Cruz based on the fact he had a strong organization,” Bystrom said. “It also underscores that retail politics still matters because Cruz ran a more traditional campaign.” Only two drop out, but more probably coming Along with O’Malley, former Arkansas Gov. Mike Hucakbee was the only Republican candidate to drop out of the race Monday night. Shelley said to expect more dropouts, especially after New Hampshire — the next state to vote Tuesday. “There will probably be some other casualties in the near future,” Shelley said. “Probably the ones that are alive and kicking, but only in single digits. They’re not going to survive New Hampshire or anywhere beyond that.” Bystrom said while she is surprised that someone like Santorum did not drop out, there is really no incentive money-wise as some candidates have Super PACs

supporting them. Shelley also said that if candidates “are not on the radar” by Super Tuesday, which is March 1 and the day the greatest number of states hold primaries, they are probably finished in their pursuit for the nomination. New Hampshire is next All eyes are now on Tuesday and beyond. New Hampshire holds the first-in-the-nation primary next week, and South Carolina and Nevada follow before Super Tuesday on March. 1. Along with Rubio having some momentum after a strong performance in Iowa, Trump is still ahead and has the best shot at a victory, Shelley said. An average of polls from Real Clear Politics shows Trump with over a 20-point lead in the state. On the Democratic side, Sanders also holds a lead and will likely come out on top despite Clinton’s win in Iowa. The RCP average shows Sanders up by more than 18 points. “I think Hillary’s going to get a little bit of momentum,” Shelley said. “She can legitimately say she won, but I imagine Sanders will end up winning.”

THIELEN p3 “He’s always willing to go the extra mile and is very intelligent in all areas.” Baldwin said that despite only having worked at the Health Center for about a month, she was not surprised when she found out that Nebbe was awarded. Nebbe believes the staff at the Health Center work very hard to provide good health care for students and hopes this award can prove that to students. “I think often times students have this tendency to dismiss the Health Center as second-rate medicine, where people aren’t the most serious about providing health care,” Nebbe said. “First of all, the faculty and staff know that it’s not that way. I want students to know that it’s not that way. I think from that perspective, the award can poten-

tially be really good for the Health Center.” The Health Center is currently working to expand its mental health suite, which will be located on the second floor. It is also working on hiring another psychiatrist to work alongside Nebbe. “To be honest, this is what affects students more than anything,” Nebbe said. “When you get a cold, it’s extremely inconvenient. When you sprain your ankle, it’s extremely inconvenient. When you’re suffering from mental health issues, it really puts you at risk. We do need more of these services. They are already spilling over into the primary care, which is already overburdened.” Cosette Scallon, associate director of clinical services at the Health Center, said changes to the mental health suite is just a small

portion of the work being done. “The fact that there’s so few psychiatrists in Ames, anyways, is really important,” Scallon said. “We’re really lucky that Iowa State has a psychiatrist because there’s not many around. The fact that he got [this award] shows that we’re trying to give quality care. We’re really proud of him for getting that honor.” Nebbe has also been invited to be publicly awarded at the Convocation of Distinguished Fellows in Atlanta, Ga., in May. “I work really hard and I think we all work really hard here to provide good care without rushing people through,” Nebbe said. “We really do want to be a place where people can come and get good health care while also learning about being good health care consumers.”

looked frustrated and couldn’t break the press. Not even playing on their home court in front of a nearly sold-out crowd made a difference, which was the worst part of the loss, Niang said. “I haven’t lost here

much in my career,” Niang said. “It’s just a gut-wrenching feeling. It’s one thing if you lose on the road — it stinks. But losing at home when you have an advantage with this many crazy fans, it’s just tough to overcome.”
