A TRADITION TAKEN Riot leads to Veishea activities’ suspension

By Dominic.Spizzirri @iowastatedaily.com

Kelby Wingert/Iowa State Daily

Katie Hansen, left, senior and journalism and mass communication, and Amber Thomas, senior in accounting, both Veishea committee members, cry in reaction to President Steven Leath’s announcement, suspending Veishea.

Veishea 2014 is no more.

There will be no concerts, no parades or any cherry pies.

Some students who spent their entire school year setting up the celebration and all of its activities feel anger and sadness from their hardwork now turning into nothing.

“We started [working] that Sunday after Veishea 2013 and into the summer and school year,” said Nicholas Morton, general co-chairman of Veishea, at a press conference Wednesday.

ISU President Steven Leath said at the same press conference that the school made the decision to cancel Veishea 2014 as of 5 p.m. that day. That included all forms of entertainment, concerts and other events.

“This is a big change for us,” Morton said regarding the festival being canceled.

This is not the first time Veishea has experienced a riot.

Riots also happened in the years of 1988, 1992, 1994 and again in 2004, which caused up to $250,000 in damage. This caused Veishea to not occur

in 2005 for the first time in 82 years, but Veishea returned in 2006.

One student organization and dance entertainment group Motion Sickness was looking forward to its Veishea celebration as its first performance to be brought through a giant spectacle.

“I thought this was going to be the year we got into Veishea, and then it all got canceled,” said Webster Kpor, president of Motion Sickness. “It really angers me.”

Motion Sickness spent between four and 10 hours a week, two days a week working hard on its performance.

“There are 15 of us, working really hard for this ... Everything has been working around this,” Kpor said.

“We were so excited, practicing four hours a week for this big show,” said Claire Kean, junior in apparel, merchandising and design and member of Motion Sickness.

Kpor said he is disgusted that the events of Tuesday night had such an effect on activities for Veishea. Kpor did not agree with canceling all events that

Lack of safety ruins celebration, causes disappointment for Leath

Anxiety, concern and disappointment outlined the faces of speakers and attendees of President Steven Leath’s announcement of the cancellation of Veishea on Wednesday.

The South Ballroom of the Memorial Union overflowed Wednesday with a crowd of curious students, press organizations and ISU and Ames officials.

The crowd gathered to hear Iowa State’s administrative decision on whether official Veishea ceremonies would continue as well as about the condition of an injured student after Tuesday night’s riot in Campustown.

“Today I’m here to express my extreme disappointment over the Campustown instances,” Leath said.

“I’m frankly embarrassed for our university and community.”

Leath said the unusual fact that students were rioting on a weekday was “very telling” and led to Leath’s, Ames Police Chief Charles Cychosz and Mayor Ann Campbell’s consensus to end all Veishea ceremonies, including all food and entertainment events.

“It’s Tuesday, folks. And we used to blame some of these issues on the people that came to Ames from out of town,” Leath said. “Well, this time it was us.”

Cychosz said police took a very nonaggressive approach to the riot because they were trying to manage the crowd and did not want to escalate emotions.

“We were prepared to do some things if it had gotten worse or continued for a long amount of time,” Cychosz said. “When the light poles went down, we had to really carefully evaluate what was happening out there. That was a turning point.”

“I think the feedback we’re getting suggests they were good,” Cychosz

said about police response.

The incident will be reviewed by the department to determine if the response was appropriate.

A mass of people gathered on Welch and Stanton Avenue in Campustown late Tuesday. By 11:30 p.m., a car had been flipped on Welch Avenue and Stanton Avenue. Police on the scene kept bystanders on the sidewalks while members of the crowd threw beer bottles, cans and rocks into the streets and on police cars.

The majority of the crowd then moved to Stanton Avenue where chants of “Veishea” and “USA” joined the noise. The crowd then began throwing fire crackers, beer bottles and cans at patrol officers and police cars. Some made contact with both officers and cars.

Police slowly backed the cars out of the way of the crowd to keep the crowd contained but not aggravated, said Ames Police. The crowd then

moved onto Lincoln Way while some people jumped on top of cars and climbed trees and street signs on their way back toward Welch Avenue.

On Welch Avenue, rioters ripped out street signs, climbed on top of buildings and took down light poles.

One light pole hit a man in the back of the head, leaving him unconscious and bleeding from the head.

Cychosz said police had to gather a team to extract the man who was life-flighted to a hospital in Des Moines where he is in a stable condition in the intensive care unit.

“Unfortunately, the true purpose of Veishea has been overshadowed by too many acts of this nature that jeopardize the safety of students,” Leath said.

All three said that safety of students and the community is the number one priority and the main reason

Student creates fundraiser for injured student, riot repairs

By Danielle.Ferguson @iowastatedaily.com An ISU student created a fundraising website for the student struck in the back of the head by a falling light pole during Tuesday night’s riot in Campustown.

Sarah Ashby, fourth year student in political science, created the website, titled “$5 for ISU & Ames: Veishea Recovery,” for students to donate $5 to support the city of Ames as well

as the family of the student injured in the riot.

The family has asked that the identity of the male student not be released, but he is in stable condition in an ICU unit in Des Moines.

Ashby said she doesn’t know the student but heard he was injured via Twitter.

Ashby said she created the website as a way to “give students a chance to redeem themselves.”

“I was so heartbroken and disappointed that

something like this happened,” Ashby said. “It seemed like only negative things were coming out of this. This is my school.

Ames is my home. The community doesn’t deserve that.”

Ashby said she has been in contact with the assistant city manager of Ames and Campustown Action Association to update her about the costs of the incident and how to best distribute the money.

There has not been a cost estimate yet, she said.

Brianna Baldwin, senior in biology, said the website showed up on her Facebook feed about 12 p.m. Wednesday. She said she knows a few police officers who work for Ames Police.

“I don’t think the city should be paying for this, especially when it’s caused by students, but maybe not all students from Iowa State,” Baldwin said. “I

think if the student body can get behind it, it would be a lot easier to ... try to recover what’s happened.”

Ashby created the website at about 9:30 a.m.

Wednesday. By 12:30 p.m., six people had donated, equaling $30. By about 2:30 p.m., $530 had been donated by 54 people.

At about 9 p.m.

Wednesday, the donation total reached $3,181 from 274 contributors.

Sara Hinson, an open

option freshman, was at the riot scene and saw the light pole hit the student.

She said she was one of the first to reach and try to help him.

“I felt his pulse and checked to see if he was breathing,” Hinson said.

“Then I realized he was bleeding. We tried to put enough pressure on his head to stop it. At one point, he started heaving,

As a mob twisted its way through Campustown on Wednesday, business owners on Welch Avenue could do nothing but watch the scene of a riot unfold outside their store windows.

Business and bar managers of places such as Subway, Fighting Burrito and Cy’s Roost said they were lucky not to receive any damages considering how close the riot came to their stores.

One business located in the heat of the riot is the Jimmy John’s on Welch Avenue.

“We were fortunate [not to have damages] that when we opened our front door, that’s where everything was going down,” said Jacob Eklund, manager of the Welch Avenue Jimmy John’s.

Super Dog manager Chad Watkins said it got to be a little frightening being exposed to the elements of a riot like some cart vendors were.

Kim Hanna, the director at Campustown Action Association, said businesses handled the riot in a way they had planned. Little to no damage to stores in Campustown was found, and owners had control of their establishments.

Hanna said despite the execution by businesses, the cause of the incident was frustrating.

People stand on the roof of The Fighting Burrito as a large crowd amassed in Campustown during Veishea on Tuesday. Campustown businesses did not have a lot of damage.

Alcohol poisoning is a serious disease that can not only land people in the hospital, but if untreated, it can also be fatal. It is important for college students and young adults to recognize the signs of alcohol poisoning.

“Alcohol poisoning is when you consume too much alcohol and your body can’t absorb it all at that time,” said Austin Henshaw, a prevention services graduate assistant.

Alcohol poisoning is largely caused by binge drinking. This is considered to be five or more drinks for men in a short period of time and three to four drinks for women, said Nikki Dempsey, a social worker and substance abuse counselor at Mary Greeley Medical Center.

“Typically, any college drinking is binge drinking,” Dempsey said.

The most important way to recognize alcohol poisoning is to watch the behavior of a person, Henshaw said. Typical signs could include excessive vomiting, unconsciousness, chills, very slow breathing, cold or clammy skin and discoloration of the skin and face.

If someone is displaying these signs, it is important to call 911 immediately, Dempsey said.

“Don’t be afraid to call for help.

in trouble, they just want to help the students at ISU,” said Kipp Van Dyke, program coordinator in the dean of students office, who meets with students to discuss safe drinking habits throughout the year.

While on the phone with 911, it is important to put the person on his or her side so he or she doesn’t choke on vomit. Also, make sure someone else is there at all times. Henshaw also said to listen to what the 911 dispatcher has to say.

“You want to avoid giving the person more water or food because they can choke on it,” Henshaw said.

“You also don’t want to give them a shower because it can send them into shock.”

If someone has been drinking, don’t leave his or her side, Dempsey said. He said people will not get in trouble if they call for help and shouldn’t leave their friend because they fear that happening.

Van Dyke said to really understand how to prevent alcohol poi-

soning, people have to understand what alcohol does to their individual bodies. People should know how their body metabolizes the alcohol and should track the amount they drink.

“You always want to drink on a full stomach. The first drink always goes into the bloodstream, but if you eat ahead of time, it slows it down,” Dempsey said.

While alcohol can affect each individual person differently, it tends to affect men more, Henshaw said. It takes less alcohol for women to get alcohol poisoning, but they aren’t as likely to drink as much as some men do.

Not only does this affect how people feel the next day, Henshaw said, but if this is something that is repeated time and time again, there could be effects on a person’s liver and brain cells.

“Look out for each other, and don’t pressure others to drink,” Van Dyke said.

ROTC students receive Governor’s Cup Award

By Mackensie.Moore @iowastatedaily.com Three ISU ROTC cadets were presented the Governor’s Cup Award at a ceremony honoring their outstanding leadership and service Wednesday.

The Governor’s Cup Award ceremony is held annually to honor cadets and midshipmen who are outstanding not only in their ROTC programs, but in academics, extracurricular activities and their all around leadership skills.

Maj. Gen. Timothy Orr, adjutant general of the Iowa National Guard, has attended the Governor’s Cup Award ceremony for the last five years and said that each year, he is amazed by the achievements of the cadets and midshipman being honored. “[The award] recognizes excellence, and seeing the cadets being honored makes you feel good knowing that the nation is in good hands for the future,” Orr said.

Each professor of military science at each Iowa university chooses the cadets to be honored that year.

For the 2013-14 academic

year, nine cadets were chosen from Iowa State University, Buena Vista University, Drake University, the University of Iowa, the University of Dubuque and the University of Northern Iowa.

After beginning remarks from Gov. Terry Branstad thanking the cadets, midshipman, fellow legislatures and family mem-

bers in attendance, the award ceremony began.

Each program leader was introduced and came up to the podium to discuss his or her cadet’s characteristics, traits and accolades as an ROTC cadet or midshipman.

Lt. Col. Richard Smith, professor of military science, introduced Zachary Graham, senior

in anthropology. Smith spoke of Graham’s leadership in the Cyclone Battalion and referred to Graham as “selfless” and “always putting the battalion first.”

“The Governor’s Cup is an outstanding opportunity, and while I’m honored to have received the award, I can also think of many other cadets just as qualified,” Graham said. “I’m definitely really humbled to have been chosen.”

Charles Hohnbaum, recent graduate of materials engineering, was introduced by Ryan Hollman, professor and chairman of air force aerospace studies. Hollman described Hohnbaum as a “very successful Air Force ROTC cadet” who will “begin the next chapter of his life on active duty” next month.

“The award is a recognition of the great things ROTC programs are doing to prepare cadets for the future, and because of the ROTC program, I definitely feel ready for active duty in the Air Force,” Hohnbaum said.

Daniel Buhr, adjunct assistant professor of naval science, introduced Kelly Larkin, senior in political science. Buhr

thanked Larkin’s family, who attended the ceremony, for “raising an outstanding young man who is dedicated to ROTC, the Navy and the military.”

Larkin said having his family there meant a lot to him because it has been very supportive. “[The ceremony] showed me that not only are my parents supporting me but we also have Gov. Branstad and the whole state of Iowa behind us as well,” Larkin said.

All the cadets and leaders in attendance said that the Governor’s Cup Award is confirmation of Iowa’s reputation of being committed to servicemen and servicewomen. “[The award is] a testament of the governor and the state of Iowa to want to recognize ROTC cadets even though they know the cadets might not stay in Iowa,” Orr said. “It’s just very special — I don’t know that any other state that does this.”

After cadets were introduced, Branstad and Orr then presented them with the silver cup award and plaque, a certificate of achievement and an achievement coin.

ISU team works to prevent software sabotage for Pentagon

By Mackensie.Moore @iowastatedaily.com As technology continues to advance every day, so does the opportunity for that technology to come under attack. An ISU professor and his team are working on developing technology that will prevent and combat those attacks.

A team led by Suraj Kothari, professor of electrical and computer engineering, is currently working in conjunction with his company, EnSoft Corp., an Ames-based company, to develop technology for the Department of Defense.

“The Department of Defense is very concerned about software sabotage,” Kothari said.

The Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency, a part of the DOD, was created to fund research and projects that prevent negative technological surprises that could impact

national security.

Kothari and his team are developing software analysis technology funded by the agency through the automated program analysis for cybersecurity program.

“Problems with the Internet of someone hacking into a computer and stealing files has been around for a long time, but now they are worried about a new wave of more sophisticated attacks,” Kothari said.

These attacks, Kothari said, could happen to the software in hidden computers — computers that exist everywhere but are not visible, such as nuclear reactors, missiles, cars and mobile phones.

Although there are many different types of attacks, Kothari said that the DOD is concerned particularly about the attacks to apps on military smartphones.

Through this $4.9 mil-

lion research project, Iowa State is being funded to develop technology that can look into apps on smartphones and identify possible problem areas.

“In order to trust a system, you really have to understand it deeply and then verify that the behaviors in the system are the ones that you want,” said Thomas Deering, graduate student in electrical and computer engineering and graduate research assistant on the software development team.

The project was not only given to Iowa State.

There are seven different teams currently developing a software analysis platform through this three-phase project.

In the 18-month first phase, the technology was developed and then challenged through provided malicious apps.

In this phase, the ISU team was named as having the top performing

software, based on the time and accuracy of the technology.

“One of the reasons why I think we are doing so well is because our approach fits the problem, which is that we are constantly thinking about the human aspect of the software,” Deering said.

Currently in the 18-month second phase, the teams will look at the potential of the technology by testing it with harder challenges and making sure the technology can adapt to the situation.

The third phase will be implementating the technology and commercially transferring it to the DOD. “Phase three is when the tools that they think are useful or have promise start getting polished for deployment,” Deering said.

At the end of the project, the software that lasted the best will be used to analyze military smart-

phones and any applications they may use to ensure the phones are secure.

Kothari said the software chosen will be based mainly on how easy it to use.

“There are limitless possibilities of ways technology can be attacked, so the question is, ‘How easy can the technology developed adapt to identify those attacks?’” Kothari said.

For the ISU team, they are all really enjoying the project.

“It’s a lot of fun working because you get to think like a horrible person without being a horrible person because that’s the only way to create successful technology for the project,” Deering said.

For Kothari, having

SEASON 58 PROUDLY PRESENTS

Iowa State’s graduate students and his EnSoft Corp. employees work together has been his favorite part. “[On this project,] we are competing with some of the top people in the world and we’re able to do so well because of the team,” Kothari said. “We have very intelligent people who all work really well together.”

While the project should be completed in 2015, Kothari said that acquiring government-funded research like this will only benefit Iowa State.

“If we start and continue to get more projects like this, then more people will come to Iowa State wanting to work on this type of cutting edge technology, which will only make Iowa State better,” Kothari said.

Wristband policy in effect for Campustown properties

By Colby.Siebersma @iowastatedaily.com Due to the influx of visitors during what was scheduled to be the week of Veishea, Campustown apartments increase security and limit the amount of visitors that each resident can bring into the building.

From Wednesday through the weekend, each resident of Campustown apartments is allotted three wristbands to give to their guests. Only individuals with wristbands are allowed into the apartments.

This is the second year this policy will be enforced.

“The purpose of the wristband policy is to increase safety for our residents, our resident’s property and the property of Campustown,” said Melissa Pierce, general manager of Campustown Property Management.

By limiting the amount of guests in Campustown buildings, it is easier to monitor the property and hopefully prevent any potentially dangerous situations from occurring, Pierce said.

Pierce also said they hope this policy prevents large, out of control gatherings in Campustown properties.

Campustown will be working closely with Haven Protection and the Ames Police Department to enforce this policy.

There will be security patrolling the grounds around properties, the interior corridors, and guards at each door checking for wristbands, Pierce said.

As far as resident feedback, Pierce said she believes most students appreciate the wristband policy.

“I think they are happy about this policy because it protects our residents, their personal property and prevents an overload of people from entering buildings,” Pierce said.

“I hope people understand that this isn’t a reflection of every person at Iowa State,” Ashby said. “People make mistakes, and it doesn’t define who they are. I hope that people who were involved in the incident think about their actions and that people are also able to forgive them.”

have nothing to do with the riot being shut down.

Iowa State needs to find a way to work with students and businesses on Welch Avenue since the shows and competitions didn’t cause any problems, Kpor said.

Other entertainment performances that were canceled include Stars Over Veishea’s performance of “Into the Woods” and all Live @ Veishea concerts for both Friday and Saturday nights.

Some ISU students expressed their sorrow about the loss of Veishea, blaming the students involved but not seeing a simple end to the problem.

“People say they do these things simply because ‘it’s Veishea,’” said Jeff Gustafson, junior in

chemistry. Gustafson said he thinks similar situations will happen throughout the rest of the week.

“It was a random occurrence … [but] this week is still going to be known as Veishea week,” said Alex Bumpus, junior in marketing.

The future of Veishea now rests in the hands of a task force created by Leath. Leath said if Veishea was to return, the festival would be of a very different kind.

“At the end of the day, Veishea is here for Iowa State University,” Morton said. “Veishea is here for the faculty and students, and that is the important thing to remember.”

The Veishea committee declined to comment to the Iowa State Daily regarding the Veishea suspension.

“Overall, I think the wristband policy does help to maintain order in the building,” Pastwa said.

Pastwa also said that sometimes the policy is very inconvenient, though. She said that only being allowed three guests per resident is very restricting.

“Despite everyone’s best efforts to fix Veishea — move it, retool it, reschedule it, change it — once again, we’re back here doing the same thing President Geoffory and President Jischke did,” Leath said about past riots.

GSB President Hillary Kletscher said she is calling for a rise in responsibility from students during the rest of the week.

Kletscher said students need to realize that they can act independently and not get caught up in any excitement.

“I challenge my fellow Cyclones to think about the impact they have on our entire university community and for their future as well. This is really an opportunity for us to have a growing moment, to have a maturity moment and to say, ‘I’m going to be responsible tonight,’” Kletscher said.

could be allowed more wristbands.

“It would be nice to hang out with more than three friends each, but we are only allowed three guest wristbands,” Bausman said.

Each guest wristband has a number on it that is linked to the resident of Campustown apartments. In the event that a guest gets in trouble, he or she can be linked back to a specific resident.

Regardless of the restrictions, this policy is meant to ensure safety, and Pastwa said it does a good job of that.

“Veishea has a history of being pretty wild, so the amount of security around does help me feel safer. Sometimes having security guards at every door feels like a little too much, though,” Pastwa said.

Although this policy makes things a little different, the main goal of it is to make sure that all Campustown residents and their guests will have a safe week, Pierce said.

Pierce said she does not foresee any problems with unregistered guests entering the building because of the amount of security that will be on scene.

“If such an event does occur, our security team will promptly address the situation and escort the unregistered guest off the property,” Pierce said.

Even though this policy can be inconvenient for residents, Bausman said he and other residents understand that the order needs to be maintained, and will try to be as corporative as possible.

Mayor Ann Campbell said she also hopes students have learned from Tuesday night’s incident.

“I would hope that this would be a wake-up call to everyone, that how do you explain to the next mother that there is another lifethreatening injury? I think that there is no question the university couldn’t take a chance on another serious injury. Hopefully that is a message that’s gone out to 33,000 people,” Campbell said.

Three people believed to be involved in the riot were arrested by police on charges of disorderly conduct. Geoff Huff, Ames Police commander, said they have received many tips via hotlines and may charge other identified individuals involved in the riot.

“If [students] have a love and appreciation for Veishea going forth, they need to behave,” Leath said about the upcoming days.

Iowa State Daily

Editorial

V Dominic Spizzirri/Iowa State Daily

President Steven Leath canceled Veishea 2014 effective at 5 p.m. Wednesday during a press conference including the parade and all entertainment events scheduled for the week.

Officials make right decision with Veishea As of 5 p.m. Wednesday, Iowa State’s 92-year-old tradition, Veishea, is no more.

It is uncertain whether or not Veishea will return in the coming years, but ISU President Steven Leath made it clear that our university will have to take a long, hard look at the question.

As far as canceling this year’s official Veishea activities, the university made the right choice. With the history of violent and destructive gatherings that Veishea has obtained over the years, our school can no longer give its seal of approval to such a tarnished event.

It may seem that by canceling many celebrations, such as the cherry pie fund-raiser, the Veishea parade and Stars Over Veishea’s production of “Into the Woods,” all of the wrong people are being punished.

However, the university cannot be unclear in its message: if Veishea cannot be celebrated safely and with integrity, it will not be celebrated.

It would be very easy for us to talk at length about the choices made by relatively few individuals late Tuesday and early Wednesday. This would be very easy, but it would not be fair to those who have invested months of their lives in preparing this year’s Veishea.

The 2014 Veishea Committee is a collection of more than 150 students who have spent the better part of the last year preparing for a weeklong event that has now been cut short.

To all of the students, all of the faculty, all of the staff, all of the Ames community members and to all of the ISU alumni and associates who have worked so hard to bring us a wonderful Veishea, thank you.

There is one group of people that feel a stronger loss of this year’s Veishea than the students do — the alumni. Alumni are some of the biggest contributors to the Veishea fund-raisers and some of the people who care the most about this university and its traditions. It is a shame that we are unable to uphold these traditions any longer due to the destruction of our community.

Students are missing the point of what Veishea is all about. Traditions like the cherry pies, Stars Over Veishea and the parade are things that people in the community, as well as students, wait year-round to attend. It is a shame to see that all of the events that Veishea is known for are being taken away due to an unofficial Veishea tradition — drinking.

It seems that many students have lost sight of what Veishea is about and substituted it with partying. It is no surprise that Veishea is going to bring partying, but that is not the main point of the event. It is a shame to see that the programs that are good for the university are being taken away because of the actions of students who were not participating in Veishea activities.

Veishea is something that students, alumni and the community can take pride in. However, if we cannot uphold the standards of ISU students and keep Veishea a safe environment, we do not deserve to have it at all.

Cancellation unfairly affects wrong students Noah Cary/Iowa State Daily

Police work on trying to control the crowd in Campustown after a large crowd gathered, vandalized the area and flipped two cars Tuesday.

ISU disregards students’ efforts, drops traditions

By Phil.Brown @iowastatedaily.com Due to the reckless and thoughtless actions of a few, this year’s Veishea is no more.

ISU President Stephen Leath summed it up best when he tossed aside the notion that ‘Veishea riots’ can be blamed on visitors from out of town, saying “this time, it was us.”

And it was us. By repeatedly engaging in dangerous and, quite frankly, stupid behavior, a subset of Iowa State students have yet again ruined a ninety-two year tradition, possibly forever this time. They have shown that despite the majority of students and Ames residents who do not behave in such a way, collectively we cannot be trusted with a celebration like Veishea.

It is understandable that

celebrations have been cancelled -- no one can say the administration wasn’t dared to take such firm action -but it may not have been the right choice.

Unfortunately, there are many, many Veishea-related ‘celebrations’ that have nothing to do with the official activities. Hundreds of students have invested thousands of hours over the course of this past year to bring Iowa State a Veishea to be proud of, but this is only the tip of the iceberg when it comes to student activities.

House parties, bar crawls and similar congregations abound in Ames over the Veishea week, and it is from these groups that problems truly arise. Cancelling the cherry pie fundraiser will not stop the so-called riots. Cancelling the Veishea parade will not stop the destruction of property.

By stopping events such as these, the university is punishing the wrong people.

It would make sense to cancel the pancake feeds and the concerts -- these are activi-

ties that can attract students who may not be in the best frame of mind. These are activities that are directed toward the current student body, the instigators of the violent outbursts that left at least one Iowa State student hospitalized after being hit by a toppling light pole.

Additionally, with no more Veishea activities, the students and visitors of Ames have no immediate incentive to behave themselves tonight and in the next few days. In fact, unfounded anger over the loss may incite even worse behavior. Obviously, the threat of cancelling future Veisheas will hang over the heads of those students who will not be graduating, but think that through for a minute.

People are tipping cars, bringing down light poles and throwing beer cans at police officers. If such a crowd cannot think of consequences as direct as being arrested or harming others, they cannot be expected to envision consequences a full year off.

Let’s be honest, for many of the students at Iowa State, Veishea is merely an excuse to drink massive amounts of alcohol and act like a jerk. It shouldn’t be, and it causes a great many of us to feel shame for our university, but it’s the truth.

In light of that truth, it would be completely reasonable for Iowa State to cancel the Veishea festivities next year and moving forward.

However, throwing away the hard work and planning of hundreds of students and faculty does little to punish those actually responsible.

It would have been more prudent for the university to announce that they were going to assess whether or not Veishea would ever happen again, and that a select number of activities were cancelled immediately, such as the pancake feeds and the concerts. This would have conveyed the seriousness of the situation while making sure that a year’s worth of work was not wasted by the childish actions of a few drunken idiots.

Letters to the editor

Students to blame, solutions needed Aaron Brand, alumni and current employee

Congratulations to the students, any visitors and anyone else who was present for and participated in the “disturbance” in Campustown on Tuesday night. Not only have your actions seriously injured one young man, but they have had the Veishea celebration for this year canceled that many students, area residents, alumni and families look forward to traveling back to campus for. Your actions have shed a negative light on Iowa State and the Ames community once again and have put the celebration in jeopardy going forward.

Nothing good happens with exces-

sive alcohol consumption, and this is proof of it. I lay the blame for the negative events over the years directly on the students who participated and their irresponsibility. The cancellation of the events for this year fall directly on those who were involved. I wholeheartedly hope that as many of those who were involved as possible are identified and charged for the damage — as well as for the assault of the young man who has had his life changed — and forced to pay for the city’s cleanup cost, the medical bills of the young man and the money that was spent on the many events that were to go on this weekend.

The students are not the only ones who are responsible for this, though. I have

to say that at least a part of the blame lies with the bars that line the streets of Campustown. As a student more than 10 years ago, I entered several of these establishments on occasion for purposes other than to consume alcohol and was appalled by the number of people who I would describe as “black out” drunk and the employees who continued to serve them. The bartenders are just doing the job that they are asked to do — serve the patrons alcohol. I also feel that there is some blame that needs to be placed on the city of Ames itself. The city does, or should, have the authority to deny a request to open a bar before the liquor license is approved, and over the years, the city has allowed the

high number of bars that have opened in the Campustown area.

The biggest problem is that there are lots of people moving to and from these establishments and this is a recipe for the disaster that we have seen too many times.

Veishea means way too much to the faculty, staff and students who put their time, their efforts, their budgets and their creative talent into putting together what should be a very positive event. My heart goes out to all of them and the young man who was injured.

I hope that Veishea can be brought back again in the future, but for now it seems as though a small portion of the student body is mature enough to drink alcohol but is not mature enough to

know when to stop or how to act responsibly.

I have to congratulate President Leath for making the difficult decision in canceling the festivities for this year, regardless of how disappointing it is for me since I had planned on attending this weekend. It is time not only for President Leath and Iowa State to take a stand against alcohol abuse at Iowa State — and Veishea in particular — but it is also time for the city of Ames and all of its residents to take a stand against the bars in Campustown.

Shut some down, force others to move and disperse the problem instead of concentrating it into a few blocks and pretending that it isn’t a problem or that this won’t happen again because it is obvious that it will.

Alumna shares heartbreak, embarrassment Judy Adair, alumna, Class of 1981 Dear Current Students, I was heartbroken to wake up to the national news that there was a riot during Veishea at Iowa State

University. As an alumna, I was also thoroughly embarrassed. What a sad way to respect a tradition that has been given to you to continue and improve.

I don’t think that alcohol can be blamed because in the late ‘70s, everyone at Iowa

State could drink and there were no riots. I realize that the majority of you are not the cause for the cancellation, but can we be consoled by that?

There are still students at Iowa State who were entertained by the rioting and who continued to act like unruly children

when asked to act like adults.

My condolences to all of the students who were planning on representing their colleges during the event on Saturday. I, and many others, will miss getting to see your displays and hearing your presentations.

Letters to the editor

Student rioters overindulge, ruin Ames economy Marcus Keinert, senior in history I hope you had your fun — it sure looked like you did.

You pelted the police, destroyed property, nearly — if not actually by now — killed a man and you embarrassed both my hometown and my university.

What sickens me most is that I know you will not take responsibility and will feel no guilt.

Those who participated in the violence will say, “C’mon, everyone was doing it,” and those who cheered it on — the THOUSANDS of you — will say,

“Hey, WE didn’t do it.” You are to blame. Not “them.” I’m talking about “you.”

But whatever, I’m sure you’ll hear a lot of this. Here’s what you won’t hear about. By getting Veishea canceled, rightfully I might add, you didn’t just ruin the parties, you didn’t just ruin the shows, you didn’t just ruin the fun.

The parades, the pies, the demonstrations, the hours of work that went into rehearsing “Into the Woods”; someone will tell you about that, and I in no way mean to undermine those efforts. But you ruined a whole

lot more than that: you wrecked a good portion of the Ames economy.

I work for Jimmy John’s — not the Welch one, but one by the same owner. In preparation for what might have made $100,000 in sales for the Welch location alone, all five of the stores were put to work slicing cheese and meats, baking bread, preparing vegetables and everything else that goes into the busiest week of the year. I am not happy to see that work go to waste, but the money lost seems even worse. I don’t have the exact amount handy, but I

can only assume that the company I work for lost well into the thousands from ordering food that will now go to waste and missed out on tens of thousands in revenue because the money spent on prepped food cannot be returned and it will soon spoil.

This undoubtedly is true for each and every campus vendor.

Every restaurant ordered goods they can no longer use. Every bar scheduled shifts that they will now have to reschedule.

Rick Lem of Toons, along with other advertising companies I will neglect to mention, printed

papers that will now go to waste. Every bartender, delivery driver and server missed out on hundreds of dollars in tips, and every business owner missed out on thousands, because on Tuesday, Veishea was all about YOU. This letter does not begin to do justice for what you ruined by your sociopathic, disgusting behavior, and I surely left out group after group that is also being screwed over.

But hey, maybe this short rant will provide a few hard workers with some much needed justice.

‘USA’ chants misrepresent military Defensive Veishea Eric Sellers, junior in horticulture By now, I am certain that there are hundreds of opinions flooding into the Iowa State Daily, so what makes this letter different than any other? Age? Life experiences? Goals? Or simply maturity?

I came to Iowa State back in August, chasing my dream to be the first one from my immediate family to receive a 4-year degree but my road to get here is unlike a large majority of those that I sit with in class. When I graduated high school, I didn’t take the normal college route; instead, I joined the military and currently am still in the military and have a total of 15 years service so far. I am not 18, or 23 or even 30. I am a 34-year-old junior and not ashamed to admit that. If anything, I think it greatly benefits my family and me. I have a family back home patiently waiting for me to graduate and return home to them.

I have been deployed to the Middle East a total of 6 times. I have been shot at. I have been awoken by

and running for a bomb shelter while mortars were landing within 75 to 100 yards from my bed, where I slept every night and hoped to wake up every morning. I have flown into very hostile remote areas, saying prayers that we safely landed so that we could safely take off and return to my loved ones at home waiting for me. I have been there and I have done that and have learned some very valuable things along the way.

So where does Veishea fit into this article? Let’s start with the young man and the family of that young man who was hurt last night. My thoughts and prayers go out to him and his family, and I pray for a full recovery.

NO ONE deserves to have his or her life jeopardized or potentially taken by anyone, especially a group of drunken idiots. To those of you who take the time to read this, I want you to keep that young man in your prayers along with his family. Now with that out of the way, let’s get to this riot.

Who are you people? I would hope that you’re not

the kid sitting in class next to me. I hope you’re not the guy that I held the door for because your hands were full. Everyone needs to open his or her eyes and think long and hard about this. This is to be a celebration — a celebration of those before us and after us. Instead, it has turned into a drunken nightmare.

Those sought after few have just cost us all. The parade, the float building and all the different clubs around campus that have put so much work into the special week is now all for nothing. These drunken lunatics on Welch Avenue on April 8 do not represent Iowa State. This mob was chanting “Veishea” and “USA” … where do either of those fit into the true definition of the week? Of the two, the one that really irks me is the “USA” chant.

What have YOU done for this country? Oh, I know you graduated high school and then got accepted into college and then got drunk in the streets and almost cost a young man his life.

You want to be proud to be an American or something? Well then go sign the dotted line.

See something you’re uncomfortable with this weekend?

Most students would want a peer to intervene if they were in danger.

See something, say something.

To the administration of Iowa State, I congratulate you. Canceling this week of events is by no means ideal or an easy decision. Students need to understand that although this riot occurred off campus, it still ties into a school function. I am all for the disbandment of Veishea because apparently it’s too much for some ISU students to handle.

I also know it is rumored that there were DMACC students involved. Why can’t Iowa State have a celebration for ISU students? I think it’s time for the birth of a new celebration.

In closing, I encourage anyone that was on Welch Avenue last night to do the right thing. If you see someone that you know involved in this, do the right thing and report it. Yeah, I know “no one likes a rat,” but think about the family of the injured. How would you feel if your brother or sister was killed because of someone else’s actions and no one came forward?

I love it here at Iowa State, but it’s time for students to take some ownership and protect our college. Stand up for the person sitting next to you in class. If we can do that, then once again, Iowa State will stand up and be the best damn college in Iowa.

saddens alumnus Robert Van Voorhis, alumnus 41 years ago, I wrote my last letter to the editor of the Iowa State Daily.

At that time, Veishea was under fire from many on campus — including the editor of the Daily — due to its perceived lack of “relevance.” My letter argued that there was little that could be more relevant than a celebration of what made Iowa State University unique — a university-wide open house to show the world who and what we were.

40 years ago as a member of the Veishea Central Committee, I was as proud as I could be of the event that we students organized and put on for the university, its students, the city of Ames and the state of Iowa. We proved that “A Weekend of Entertaining Education” could be both relevant, informative, and … fun.

Today, I am saddened by the fact that finally … truly, Veishea has become irrelevant. Since 1992, Veishea has been on the defensive. Plagued by a cancer of continuing student irresponsibility

and disrespect, it is time to administer last rites.

It saddens me to no end to acquiesce to the mob, to the “it’s all about me” culture that we have fostered in this country and on this campus. But a world where one person’s right to express opinions on religion, gun violence, personal freedoms and social obligations supersedes the rights of the community at large, it is little wonder that the efforts to provide so much for so many should be silenced by the drunken, malicious thoughtlessness of the few.

I participated in Veishea activities for 7 years — from high school through college — as a member of the Ames High Marching Band, building floats with Delta Tau Delta fraternity and as a member of the Veishea Promotions Committee and Veishea Central Committee. I have been an ardent and vocal supporter for another 40 years. Tonight, as Veishea is closed down, I will drink a toast to the wonderful years of the past, while I bemoan the future that could have been.

Launching a dream ISU Disc Golf Club prepares for national championship

By Will.Musgrove @iowastatedaily.com After launching his disc from the firsthole tee pad at the Stable Run disc golf course, Calvin Song watched as it soared toward the basket — officially calling to order the ISU Disc Golf Club meeting.

Song, who is the club’s president, along with other members, don’t just get together to get in a relaxing round of 18 holes, though.

They have been preparing for the National Collegiate Disc Golf Championship in South Augusta, S.C., on April 16 to 19.

“I have been practicing five days a week,” Song said. “A lot of us have been playing nonstop to get ready for nationals because we don’t want to get rusty or have our arms get tired or sore.”

The club qualified for nationals Oct. 5, 2013, when it placed first at the Heartland Collegiate Disc Golf Championship in Ottumwa, Iowa. This will be the fourth time Iowa State has participated in the tournament since it started competing in 2011.

The Cyclones’ team will be made up of four club members—Song, Matt Drilling, Joey Lane and Jake Lauber — who will be vying for the top prize at the championship against 60 teams.

All four of these golfers were on the club’s national team last season, so Drilling hopes the they will be able to draw on past experiences to help give them an edge.

“I think we will do a lot better this year,” Drilling said. “We have the exact same team going down as we did last year, so we have a lot more experience under our belt.”

Iowa State has struggled in the past during

the team rounds, leading Song to believe teamwork will be a deciding factor.

“We’re going to have to play well as a team,” Song said. “Last year, we kind of fell apart in our team rounds, but we really hit it off in our single rounds. So I think if we play better as a team, that will make our scores a lot better.”

Tennessee Tech won the championship last season while Iowa State placed 20th. Lane, who finished sixth individually, said the club is only paying attention to what it needs to do to improve.

“We are going have to go in and play our own game,” Lane said.

“We’re not going to worry about what everyone else does.”

S o n g thinks a strong showing in South Augusta could help build interest in the club, which will see some of its senior members departing in the near future.

“For us to put something in the record books for the Iowa State Disc Golf Club will mean a lot,” Song said. “Two of our players might be leaving next year and after that one another of our good players will be leaving, then I’ll be leaving. Our club might dissolve after that. So if we can leave a mark for our club now, it will be great.”

Capezio looks forward to sophomore volleyball season Freshman outside hitter, coach talk statistics, growth

By Chris.Wolff @iowastatedaily.com When Ciara Capezio arrived in Ames to begin her collegiate volleyball career, ISU coach Christy Johnson-Lynch had no idea what the freshman’s impact on the team would be.

As with all freshman athletes, the transition period between high school and college athletics can be unpredictable.

“I knew what she was capable of, but you just never know how freshmen will come in,” Johnson-Lynch said. “It’s such a hard adjustment, so I was really happy that she was able to play as well as she did.”

Throughout the 2013 campaign, Capezio became an integral part of the ISU volleyball team.

Capezio was second on the team in kills with 273, only behind Mackenzie Bigbee’s 324 kills. Capezio was also fourth on the team in blocks and digs, and she led the team with 35 services aces.

Johnson-Lynch especially liked Capezio’s backcourt play

and her ability to pass in every rotation. This year, however, the coach said she expects Capezio to be even more of a go-to player offensively.

“Her backcourt was just as important as anything to us, and she was a really good offensive player, and I think we’re going to see more of that this season,” Johnson-Lynch said. “As her stats continue to climb, I think we will rely on her more and more.”

Capezio also had to deal with a hampering foot injury throughout the end of last season, which makes her high level of play even more impressive.

This year, after recovering from an off-season foot surgery, the team is expecting big things from Capezio during her sophomore campaign.

“She kind of had to limp through the end of the season, and I think [now] she’s feeling as healthy as she’s ever felt,” Johnson-Lynch said. “To see what she can do with a healthy body is going to be fun to see.”

As Capezio prepares for her second season at Iowa State, the expectations have risen.

After a freshman year, where she wasn’t necessarily expecting to have as significant of a role as she ultimately had, Capezio feels that the experience has better prepared her for this season.

“I did not expect to have that much pressure on my shoulders to start off, but I feel having that pressure actually made me grow more as a player,” Capezio said.

As Capezio continues to grow into a bigger role, and become a player the team relies on heavily, her leadership role will also increase.

Now preparing for her sophomore campaign, Capezio is stepping into a leadership role as one of the main hitters on the team.

“This year I have a bigger leadership role, not as big as [Victoria] Hurtt and the seniors, but being a main hitter, I feel that I have that more of that leadership role also,” Capezio said.

If Capezio continues to deliver like she did last season, Johnson-Lynch said that her kill opportunities will continue to rise.

Some might worry a little bit with the team being so dependent on a sophomore athlete, but the team has no worries when it comes to Capezio.

“As a freshman, you can be a little shaky at times, but [Capezio] has been under that pressure and can handle it,” said teammate Natalie Vondrak. “I think a little more pressure is on her shoulders [this year], but we have all the confidence in her.”

ISU softball struggles with offensive inconsistency in loss to Drake

By Ben.Paulus @iowastatedaily.com DES MOINES — Entering Wednesday’s contest against Drake, the ISU softball team sat just one game above .500 on the season.

The Cyclones (18-17, 1-5 Big 12) made it apparent from the top of the first inning that they had every intention to prevent themselves from falling to the .500 mark but fell short in a rally against the Bulldogs, losing 10-9.

Sophomore center fielder Brittany Gomez scored the game’s first run before the next batter had a chance to bring her in. After advancing to second on an error by the catcher, Gomez stole third and took home when the catcher’s throw sailed into the outfield.

Gomez’s aggressive base running set the tone for the Cyclones. A solo

homerun by junior shortstop Lexi Slater put Iowa State up 2-0.

“Gomez does such a good job with her aggressiveness on the base paths,” said ISU coach Stacy Gemeinhart-Cesler.

“She’s huge, she’s really the table setter for our offense.”

Freshman ace Katie Johnson started her 31st game on the mound for Iowa State. Although at times Johnson has been virtually unhittable, she has struggled with her control as of late, averaging one walk for every two innings.

After hitting the leadoff batter in the bottom of the first, Johnson allowed a single and walk to load the bases.

Gemeinhardt-Cesler made the move to relieve Johnson by bringing in junior Paris Imholz to try and limit the damage.

“I just wasn’t able to

execute [in the first inning],” Johnson said. “We came out and got those five runs, and we just got back on our heels a little bit.”

Imholz was able to escape the first-inning jam

after allowing only two of Johnson’s runs to score, keeping the Cyclones ahead of the Bulldogs 5-2.

However, Iowa State’s lead was short-lived.

Drake was able to tack on three more runs

off Imholz in the bottom of the second inning before the Cyclones made the decision to go back to Johnson on the mound.

After a bases-loaded blooper in the bottom of the fourth, the Cyclones trailed the Bulldogs 6-5.

Iowa State found itself on the wrong side of the box score after Drake outfielder Hayley Nybo brought home three on a bases-loaded double before scoring herself on an error to make it a 10-5 ballgame.

Heading into the top of the seventh inning, the Cyclones were able to piece a rally together.

Iowa State scored three runs to make it 10-8 before first baseman Jorden Spendlove came up to the plate with one out and runners on second and third.

Spendlove singled up the middle bringing Rachel Hartman home easily,

but second baseman Sara Davison, who was the tying run, was thrown out at the plate on the play.

Trailing 10-9, Iowa State third baseman Sara Rice fouled out to end the game with the tying run on second base.

After the game, Gemeinhardt-Cesler said she wouldn’t have changed her decision to send Davison home for the tie.

“We tend to be aggressive in that situation,” Gemeinhart-Cesler said.

“We’ll usually take that chance on the base paths, that’s just how our offense runs.”

After falling to .500 on the season, Iowa State will look to turn it around in conference play this weekend when they take on Texas (23-16, 3-1 Big 12) in a three-game series.

The series opener between the Cyclones and the Longhorns starts at 4 p.m.

Friday.

Exhibit showcases ISU alumni’s diversity

By Devin.Wilmott @iowastatedaily.com With support from the ISU Alumni Association, Carole Gieseke and Jim Heemstra have outdone themselves by completing one of the most monumental projects brought to Iowa State. The “Visions Across America: Iowa State University alumni from coast to coast” project tells a broader story of the university through the eyes of more than 120 alumni around the country.

After three years of traveling with a $125,000 budget and generous donors, the project has finally come together in a 128page issue of Visions magazine and an exhibition in the Brunnier Art Museum that is open and free to the public through Aug. 9.

Visions magazine is a quarterly magazine for members of the ISU Alumni Association. This spring’s issue showcases 51 ISU alumni from every state through a photograph by Heemstra, a Des Moines-based photographer, and personal narrative written by Gieseke.

“We were looking for different ages, different ethnicities, a gender balance and people from all different colleges,” Gieseke said. “I tried to tell 51 unique stories.”

Gieseke is the editor for Visions magazine and coordinator for the entire project. Usually the magazine is only 48 pages but this issue is almost three time the size.

“It’s always interesting to see the paths chosen by fellow alumni and to learn how each has used their degree for the betterment of the community in which they live. The reach of Iowa State on a national level is certainly impressive and speaks to the excellent academic foundation provided here,” said graduate Rebecca Houser after seeing the issue for the first time. Houser graduated in 1997 with a Bachelor of Science in sociology and she is currently a member of the Alumni Association.

Houser, along with the 50,700 other Alumni Association members, were greeted with this expanded issue at their doorstep.

The project initially started off as a small idea

Tiffany Herring/Iowa State Daily

The “Visions Across America” exhibit opened Thurdsday at the Brunnier Art Museum in the Scheman Building. The project uses photos of more than 120 ISU alumni from around the country. The exhibit is part of a larger project for VISIONS magazine that catalogs alumni’s experiences after graduation.

that sprang up in 2011 on Gieseke and Heemstra’s return from Chicago. The two laughed it off saying, “We couldn’t possibly do that, it’s too much work and money.” But despite the obstacles, Gieseke and Heemstra decided to pursue the idea and have brought Iowa State’s past to life in doing so.

“In all honesty, I was concerned about the costs and whether or not we could keep our regular work going as much as Carole needed to be out of the office,” said Jefferey Johnson, president and CEO of the Alumni Association. “I was faced with the question, ‘Would people think this was a waste of money or could these resources be used in another way?’ However, it was really so compelling that I decided rather than use our regular budget that we would go out and raise the money for it.”

The project was supported and funded from donations from various alumni donors, alumni association funds and institutional funds.

“The project itself is bigger than just a magazine or exhibit,” Johnson

said. “It is an inside look on this university and wonderful way to tell a bigger story about Iowa State through the graduates, which is really the product of the university. We can do all the research and turn out all the incredible patents and licenses but what we really do is turn out people who make the world a better place.”

This project has inspired other institutions to start alumni projects of their own as well as inspired the people featured in the project to connect with other ISU alumni.

“I run into Iowa State alumni everywhere,” said Dawn Refsell, 2003 ISU graduate and field market development specialist for Valent USA Corp. “I think this project is something that we can all relate to and it makes me want to go to some of these states and visit these people.”

One of the common things found in a lot of interviewed alumni was the connection to Iowa State being considered a home, no matter how far they traveled after graduation.

“I am so honored to be a part of the project. You won’t recognize me in the

exhibit though because I don’t look anything like my picture,” Refsell said.

“Jim wanted me to dress like how I dress for work.

I work in agriculture so usually I’m in T-shirts and jeans and my hair is pulled back in a pony tail.”

Under Gieseke’s discretion, Heemstra photographed 116 alumni. The array of backgrounds and messages communicated through the photographs in the magazine and exhibit showcase his natural talent of capturing the “perfect moment.”

With their tight schedule, the two only had a couple hours with each alumnus or alumna for both an interview and photograph.

The photograph’s background and set were based on the personality of the individual with consideration of his or her career path and lifestyle.

“My experience being photographed was the most humorous day of my life, and I’ve had a lot of humorous days,” said Shirley Whipple Koenen, former “guidette” for NBC Studios and receptionist who currently works for Jack Parr.

“Pretty soon, Jim has me on a drum in the middle of

the room and I have puppets in both my hands and he’s saying ‘Work it Shirley, work it.’”

Koenen received her master’s degree in counseling from Iowa State in 1989 and has set her life goal to counsel all ages using a sense of humor and puppets in her work.

“I would like people to look at these pictures and know they were all here doing the same exact thing students are doing today,” Heemstra said. “They didn’t come here to learn a career, they came here to learn how to live a life.

Above all, that’s what I’d like to share. There are a lot of possibilities out there and all of these people are just ordinary people doing extraordinary things. They all come from different environments and different experiences and went out and took what they learned.”

The reception for the “Visions Across America” exhibit, which opened Thursday, will last throughout the week.

Both alumni featured in the project and members of the Alumni Association were invited to attend and celebrate the impact that

ISU alumni have across the nation.

“The thing we found with a lot of alums is that they really had a passion for what they were doing and they found that passion here at Iowa State,” Gieseke said.

The Brunnier Art Museum is located in 295 Scheman Building in the Iowa State Center.

Museum hours are 11 a.m. to 4 p.m. Tuesday through Friday and 1 p.m. to 4 p.m. Saturday and Sunday.

Although admission is free, there is a suggested $3 donation per visitor.

“Visions Across America: Iowa State University alumni from coast to coast” can be purchased from the Iowa State alumni center for $10.

Gieseke and Heemstra will host an educational program at 2 p.m. June 8 in the Brunnier Art Museum to discuss their journey and share their experiences.
