After a potential NCAA violation was reported in April 2011, an extensive investigation in the ISU athletic department was under review. While attending his son’s basketball game, ISU men’s basketball coach Fred Hoiberg noticed former ISU player and then-student coach Keith Moore in attendance, setting off a red flag of a potential violation for improper contact with a recruit. ISU Athletic Director Jamie Pollard was notified the next day. A thorough investigation in the days ahead revealed that Moore had sent 160 improper text messages. This brought another question to mind for those investigating. “’Well, if he was sending texts, has our system missed that other coaches might be sending texts?’” said Tim Day, faculty athletics representative, at the Athletic Council’s monthly meeting on Tuesday. A search for an answer revealed a problem with improper text messages wasn’t among coaches, but Day said repeated phone calls to a recruit within a week brought up more questions. Pretty quickly, Day said, it was determined that the problem rested more with not logging phone calls where no contact was made with a recruit or when a message was left. “That was a moment that we had to say, ‘What are we going to do with this?’” Day said. “Trying to look at the extent we had to kind of keep broadening.” The investigation broadened by expanding past just men’s basketball stemming from the Moore incident. Eventually phone records from all 18 sports at Iowa State were vetted.

CAMPUSTOWN uses new guest policies Wristbands will go into effect Thursday By Charles.O’Brien @iowastatedaily.com New temporary security measures are being put in place at properties owned by Campustown Property Management this week for Veishea. Campustown Property Management, which owns properties including Legacy Towers and Cyclone Plaza, is enacting a new wristband policy for all of its residents living at their 22 properties and their guests starting Thursday and going through the end of Veishea. Residents and their guests will be required to wear a wristband, which will allow them to enter the apartment building. Each resident is allowed to have up to three guests. The guests and residents have to go to the Campustown Property Management office and register.

‘Iowa Nice’ comes to campus By Tedi.Mathis @iowastatedaily.com At the Veishea Opening Ceremony and Awards on Tuesday night, Scott Siepker spoke about his memories of Iowa State and what Veishea means to him. An ISU alumnus, Siepker helped found Iowa Filmmakers and starred in its films “Iowa Nice,” “Cyclone Nice” and “Hawkeye Nice.” These videos have gone viral on YouTube and have helped to fix misconceptions about Iowa. Siepker recounted his first acting class at Iowa State and how that led to his career today, as well as many other ISU memories, such as taking a swim through Lake LaVerne and emceeing

Varieties. “Eventually as I was going through all this, all these mental fun memories, I got to the Veishea memories,” Siepker said. “For me, Veishea means campus; that’s what it means to me.” Siepker explained that Veishea is not only vital to the ISU campus, but also to the Ames community. “Veishea is stronger, it’s healthier, it’s better. That makes Iowa State stronger, healthier, better. It makes Ames stronger, healthier, better,” Siepker said. A concern Siepker addressed was the reputation Veishea has gained, though he said this was a problem that ISU students had the potential to solve. “Veishea, as we know, un-

fortunately and wrongly, has a perception issue,” Siepker said. “So the only way that can change is if you all get out there and use whatever medium you possibly have to spread the word about what Veishea really is, which is a heck of a good time.” The event was emceed by Senior Vice President of Student Affairs Tom Hill. Also speaking at the ceremony was President Steven Leath through a short video, as he could not be present. He encouraged students to enjoy the traditions of Veishea while remaining safe. “I will be joining you for many Veishea activities late this week,” Leath said. “We especially appreciate all you do to ensure that Veishea continues to be a safe activity

>>NCAA.p1 Searching through phone records from a three-year period between 2008 and 2011 resulted in finding 1,484 phone call violations from some 750,000 total phone calls. Of that total, it was determined that 79 were clear-cut violations due to phone calls made outside of an allowed time period rather than logging issues. On April 2, the ISU athletic department announced that it had entered a summary disposition with the NCAA to affirm the violations. That report, which was 590 pages, was released last week and named coaches and improper calls. The Athletic Council meeting on Tuesday was the first one held since the violations were released. “It’s not even the phone calls, it’s the log of the phone call,” Pollard told the com-

But I wouldn’t pay for absolute compliance.” After the meeting, Frank Montabon, chairman of the board, said if other institutions did such an extensive investigation, there might be similar results. “I think that’s obvious: That if any

Day said the hope is for Iowa State to be on the docket to have its case heard by the NCAA Infractions Committee the next time it meets, which is currently unknown. There won’t, however, be any further advancements until then as the 590page report already available is final. There is also hope that Iowa State’s investigation, initiated by a report from Hoiberg, won’t change the way coaches approach any issues in the future. “What we hope doesn’t happen is that the whole thing doesn’t disincentivize coaches from doing the right thing,” Day said. “Obviously there would be a moment where it’d be easier for a coach to turn around and walk out of the gym and act like nothing happened.”

had received mostly positive feedback from residents so far, and there had been a handful of people who are upset with the decision, but once the reasoning was explained to them they understood. Sgt. Mike Arkovich of the Ames Police Department and Safe Neighborhoods Team said he sees this type of action as a good stance to take. Arkovich said that he had never seen something like this enacted during Veishea in his time with the Ames Police.

He explained that this would reduce the number of parties happening in these buildings and would help reduce issues for the property company. “Oftentime, we’ll go into these buildings and there are 40 to 50 people in a small twoperson apartment. It’s just unsafe,” Arkovich said. “Doing this keeps the outsiders who are causing problems for them, and us, out and also helps limit who should be in these apartment buildings.”

Editorial:

Aim to attain bigger bands for Veishea When the lineup of concerts for this year’s Live @ Veishea was announced back in February, this newspaper conducted a poll of its readers via our website and social media outlets, particularly on our Facebook page. We wanted to see which bands the ISU community was most excited about seeing live in Ames. The response to this unscientific poll was quite interesting, with the largest response (85) being that students were not excited for any of the concerts at all. The nearest competitor for the top slot was B.o.B., which 75 students said they were most excited to see. After that, the numbers take a nosedive. Only 36 students said they were most excited to see Easton Corbin, 29 favored Grouplove, and the other bands received between zero and eight votes. To be fair, there are pockets of fans across this campus who are excited to see maybe one or two of the bands coming during this two-day music festival and, since they favored a combination of acts, could not really answer the question, “Which 2013 Live @ Veishea band are you most excited to see perform?” Some students are excited to see the country slate of Easton Corbin and Jana Kramer, or even to see Saturday’s headliner B.o.B. But while students may enjoy the music of these artists, for some it does not seem worth it to pay the $15-20 to hear the artists they enjoy only play a few songs. It seems that this was an effort to offer something for everyone on campus, offering a plethora of genres and artists so that students are bound to have heard at least one song from each of the acts, rather than offering an event in which an absolutely huge number of students would take an interest. While this is noble, with the lack of excitement found among students for the lineup, and lack of recognition of the bands slated to perform, wouldn’t it have been more beneficial to offer something else? One way of offering that “something else” could be to offer one or two acts each night instead of the five or six offered this year. By pooling the money allotted in the budget for a ticket of 12 acts over two days, you could theoretically get some higher-profile names. Names that students know and love. If country acts seem to be the big seller, maybe offer two higher-profile stars on Friday night and offer two rock or hip-hop acts of equal stature the next night. By not having such a large lineup, these stars could play more than just the four or five songs they are currently allotted under the time constraints currently offered. Even if the current budget is insufficient to draw a few bigger, more well-known performers the investment might be warranted, in order to draw more student interest in the “official” Veishea rather than some of the drunken parties for which Veishea is known and which pose a threat to indulgent students suffering from a lapse in judgment. As it is, the Veishea committee does a lot of work that normally ends up being the best they can do with the resources that are available. Aiming a little higher, however, is always possible.

Someday arrived too quickly

have so many dreams it depresses me. The college boy in me isn’t quite ready to hang up his backpack and trusty Sennheiser headphones for good. College is a time of self-realization. Ideally, by the time you graduate, you’re already beginning to turn self-realization into self-actualization as your experience in college leads you down the path you wish. You separate yourself from the secure nest of your parents’ guarded watch and begin making sense of the world for the first time truly on your own. Some make drastic changes to their lives to alter the course of their life, others simply follow the trend: high school, college, job, marriage, kids, etc. To be honest, in the last four years of college, I have never given my post-college life, the self-actualization part, much thought. Now it’s time to make the biggest decision I’ve made since coming to Iowa State. Over the course of college I have made many realizations about myself and dreamt of alternative lives I could lead. Now that I’m about to graduate, it’s time to put one of my dreams into actualization. This should delight me — living out my dream, but still, it saddens me to know that in order to pursue one dream, one life route, I must say goodbye to others. From the time I was 5 years old I wanted to be a rock star. I idolized the late Elvis Presley, getting new plastic guitars almost every Christmas. I found passion for music

By Scott.Watson @iowastatedaily.com in junior high school, then played bass guitar in our school’s jazz and concert bands. When I came to college, I picked up an electric, sixstring guitar and joined a band. I’ve known for some time now not everyone can be the next Elvis Presley, but the idea of living in some dumpy apartment, scraping by on a meager salary and playing music all the time has always been a very romantic idea to me. My father is a farmer, so for a long time I thought I wanted be a farmer too. However, I realized a few years ago I have too many aspirations and things I want to see to confine myself to the only occupation I have ever truly experienced firsthand. But still, the country life is so simple, loving, free; it truly is one of the best jobs in the world. Someday, maybe I’ll go back to the farm; I know I would love the serenity and natural beauty of it. But for now, this country boy’s got big city dwellin’ on his mind! While in college I also learned how deeply my love to write ran. It began in an entry-level English class; I realized how much more I loved writing than what I realized, so I pursued it by way of a communications degree. I began writing for our school newspaper. I write in my free time, I now copy edit, write poetry and songs for my band — writing is easily among my strongest

of passions. It shouldn’t be a surprise when I say a career in journalism is something that always weighed on my heart heavily. A few years ago, I delved into a classic American author Hunter S. Thompson, especially his earlier works. Comical though he may be, I devoured his vivid descriptions and wild exaggerations of the American life. I long to see the world in that way — from an outsider’s perspective, taking in the world one observation and scribble of a pen at a time. The most recent of my aspirations — being an ad man — has recently been coming to fruition. It will cover several of my dreams, as I would hopefully be assuming the role of copywriter. It’s something I want; it’s something I am excited for, but still, I can’t help but feel a sense of sadness as I feel the warmth of sun from behind door No. 4 caress my face, and the rush of air from the others slap me in the face, giving me chills as they slam shut in front of me. I realize this is melodramatic, that there’s always time for a career change, but you’re only young once, and I hardly feel ready to grow up. But I know that’s all my foolish depression is — an unwillingness to abandon my inner Peter Pan and assume the roles of adulthood

Letter to the editor

Stick with what you know After reading Lance Sacknoff’s “Learn Bible before judging religion,” I became enraged. My anger was not brought on by the ideas that Mr. Sacknoff held; I share similar thoughts. I became enraged by his sheer lack of a logical argument and his overall tone in the piece. Mr. Sacknoff’s article, at least to me, appeared to attempt to show Mr. Clarke’s opinion as flawed. However, Mr. Sacknoff grossly failed to do so. In order to show that a person’s stance on a subject is flawed, you must do one of two things 1. You must discredit your opponent. This shows that their foundation is flawed and the rest of their arguments will quickly crumble. 2. You must discredit your opponent’s ideas individually. If you can do that, then they no longer have an argument to hold on to. General information: The Iowa State Daily is an independent student newspaper established in 1890 and written, edited, and sold by students

While I may or may not agree with either Mr. Clarke or Mr. Sacknoff, Mr Clarke put forth the more convincing article and because of this I come to his defense. To defend Mr. Clarke’s viewpoint I could pick apart each of Mr. Sacknoff’s stances. However, I do not think I have enough space to do so. So instead I will discredit him in three separate ways. First, Mr. Sacknoff found he had difficulty deciphering which “God” Mr. Clarke was referencing. This shows that Mr. Sacknoff lacks the logical capacity to make a decision with any convincing amount of certainty and thusly shows that he lacks the logical capacity to make a convincing argument. If someone is talking about Easter, and Easter is celebrated by Christians, then logically it will be the Christian God that would be brought up, if brought up at all.

Secondly, Mr. Sacknoff contradicted himself when he attacked Mr. Clarke for “interpret[ing] the word of his omnipotent God.” Mr. Sacknoff then proceeds to quote Bible verses and interpret them himself! This shows that Mr. Sacknoff can not hold a strong foundation for his own ideas because he has now made himself a hypocrite, and nobody likes a hypocrite. Finally, Mr. Sacknoff lacks basic knowledge and ability to differentiate between two people. I am of course referring to paragraphs 9 and 10, where he quotes a line from Moses and then proceeds to proclaim that “Jesus says you need to be executed!” It is sad that a person can not distinguish between completely different men who lived a great number of years apart.

opinion, I tried to imagine it as a joke or even in a sarcastic tone. But I fail to see how anyone who claims to be educated, intellectual, open-minded, accepting or virtuous could hold such a flawed and poor opinion. To Mr. Clarke: Though I doubt that you would need any assistance in dismantling Mr. Sacknoff in a public debate, I humbly offer you my help regardless. To Mr. Sacknoff: Maybe a public debate would not be such a good idea for you. With you currently being a graduate student in English, I think that you are best suited for correcting other people’s grammatical errors, not their philosophical ideas. So please, next time, stick to what you know.

SPOTLIGHT By Dan.Cole @iowastatedaily.com The transition from being a redshirt player to taking the court against some of the top teams in the nation would be difficult for anyone. That’s exactly what ISU redshirt freshman Morgan Kuhrt has been experiencing this spring, as she has started getting consistent playing time for the first time after being redshirted last fall. Kuhrt, a native of Waverly, Iowa, has handled the transition this spring, however, stepping into her new role at outside hitter with confidence against some of the best teams in the nation. “I wouldn’t say it’s been too difficult of a transition,” Kuhrt said. “It’s pretty familiar to compete and stuff, so I’ve felt pretty comfortable easing into it. But sometimes it is a little nerve-racking going out there, just because I haven’t really competed on a big stage for a while.” In high school, Kuhrt won two state titles in 2009 and 2011 with Waverly-Shell Rock High School, where she averaged more than four kills per set as a senior. This spring, she has shown that she’s still got it. Kuhrt led the Cyclones (3-2) offensively against Nebraska-Omaha last Saturday, leading the team in kills with 13. She also recorded four kills against rival Nebraska in just one set and picked up eight kills against Creighton in her first match as a Cyclone. While her play has been solid, ISU senior libero Kristen Hahn said the hardest part of the transition has been trying to evoke intensity from Kuhrt. “Morgan is very shy,” Hahn said. “She’s a very quiet girl, and so trying

to get emotion out of her [has been difficult]. I think coaches have been trying a lot, too, and to make her feel more a part of the team. As a redshirt, you don’t always feel as a part of the team because you’re always on the training side and you don’t get to play in the games.” The task of making Kuhrt and fellow redshirt freshman Natalie Vondrak feel more a part of the team has fallen largely on the shoulders of Hahn and senior Tenisha Matlock since they are the only seniors on the team this season. Hahn and Matlock have become role models for the redshirts, helping them better understand things from a more intellectual standpoint, both on and off the court. “On defense, I ask Morgan, ‘Do you see why you need to be here?’ or, ‘In this scenario, this is where we need to be,’” Hahn said. “Those are the things that they might not pick up on, that I’ve had experience with and been told from my coaches.” Just above Kuhrt and Vondrak is a large sophomore class, consisting of six of the team’s 11 players. This class has been improving all spring and is creating a buzz about what could be coming this fall and beyond if they mature properly. “They’re obviously going to be a huge part of what we do next year,” said ISU coach Christy JohnsonLynch. “At times, we are young – we’re going up against Minnesota and we’ve got five freshmen out there, so we have to still be smart and make up for maybe a little bit of lack of experience with just being smart and being aggressive.” The Cyclones final competitions of the spring season are set to take place this weekend in Minneapolis, where they will play three games on Saturday.

Redshirt freshmen Morgan Kuhrt is a 6-foot-1-inch outside hitter from Waverly, Iowa. She wears No. 16, and won two state titles in high school with Waverly-Shell Rock. Natalie Vondrak is also 6-foot1-inch Iowa native. The middle blocker attended Bishop Heelan in Sioux City, Iowa, where she was a three-time all-state selection and lost to Kuhrt’s Waverly-Shell Rock team in the 2011 state championship match.

Richardson leads offense, linebackers ‘eat’ Young quarterback grows in leadership along with defense

Beyond playing field

By Dylan.Montz @iowastatedaily.com ISU quarterback Sam Richardson may not have the best running form for a ball carrier in the eyes of offensive coordinator Courtney Messingham, but there is no denying what he has been able to do running the ball this spring. In last Saturday’s scrimmage, Richardson busted loose for a 41-yard touchdown and finished the practice with eight carries for 81 yards. ISU coach Paul Rhoads said Richardson has matured in his decision-making in regard to when to slide to avoid contact, but isn’t shy from hits. “I think you saw in the West Virginia game he dropped his shoulder one time late in the game, moving the ball to the red zone and got demonstrative after,” Rhoads said. “He’s capable of dropping his shoulder and getting physical but you need those guys to be smart and stay healthy and stay on the field.” With the Iowa State’s spread offense using a zone read and the recently implemented pistol formations, Richardson said he has begun to recognize situations and when to pull the ball away from a handoff to get the yards that are needed. Even though Richardson claimed he may not be the most athletic runner on the team, it has seemed to work just fine for him so far. “Maybe it’s not going to be the huge 60-yarder you’d like to see every time but I think it will be a pretty big gain each time we get that opportunity,” Richardson said. The redshirt sophomore started the last three games of 2012 for the Cyclones, includ-

ing the Liberty Bowl, completing 46 of 79 passes at 58.2 percent for eight touchdowns and one interception. The light did not seem to come on until this spring in Rhoads’ mind, however, when Richardson has begun to command the offense. “As much as you try to

get a guy to come along earlier, sometimes it just doesn’t work that way,” Rhoads said. “Sam had an opportunity last year to be the guy. Sam had an opportunity no different than Steele [Jantz] or Jared [Barnett] to take the ball in the first offense and run with it and never stepped forward to do that. It was too easy for him to sit behind a couple veteran guys and wait for his time. Sam has now made those steps and I see him more commanding in his presence of the offense, in his level of play. He’s making good choices.”

‘Shark Week’ in minds of linebackers Senior Jeremiah George and juniors Jared Brackens and Jevohn Miller all have

something in common as the prospective starting linebackers for this fall. Each player has seemed to have that instinctive light come on for them going into their junior seasons for the ISU football team, much like Richardson has this spring. “I think that’s the coincidence piece of it, that for those three particular guys, it’s all been going into their junior season because the light goes on at different times for different players,” Rhoads said. “One thing I know I’m happy about is the light has gone on. We’ve got three first-team linebackers that are having good springs and really playing productively both on normal practice days and scrimmage days.” George is the lone starter

In addition to mentioning quarterback Sam Richardson’s commanding leadership presence on the field, ISU coach Paul Rhoads took notice of his off-field leadership as well, especially in the film room. “Good chance he’s down the hallway right now watching tape with a receiver or two,” Rhoads said. “He snags them as often as he can .... That’s what you need your No. 1 leader on the offensive side of the ball to do.” Richardson said he has embraced his role as the No. 1 quarterback on the depth chart. Being vocal and directing the younger guys is something, he said, “you have to do.” “It’s so important,” Richardson said. “You have to be able to trust the guys on the field and off the field. I think the best way to gain people’s trust on the field is by showing your character off the field. There’s no doubt that when you’re on the field, obviously you have to rely on other people, but showing other people they can count on you.”

returning for the linebacking group and finished with 84 tackles in 2012. The senior has also tried to establish early the attitude of a linebacker that he learned when he first joined the Cyclones. George described it as something known as “Shark Week.” “I think it was before the TCU game, I said the only thing on the mind of a shark is eat,” George said. “The whole mentality of a shark is, we have all these things we have to think about during the play, look at the formation and think about what we might get. “But at the end of the day, when the ball is snapped we have to go tackle the ball carrier so we refer to that as eating. So it’s time to eat.”

Pie funds scholarships

Iowa State tradition helps to facilitate students’ education

File photo: Iowa State Daily

By Rachel Bratek AmesEats Flavors Combine 147 pounds of cherries, 37.5 pounds of sugar, twelve 50-pound bags of flour, and seven 50-pound cases of shortening and you have the recipe for a long-standing Veishea tradition. Cherry pies have been a tradition at Iowa State since the 1920s, even before Veishea started. Since the beginning, the pies have served as a fundraiser for student scholarships in the department of home economics. All proceeds from the cherry pie sales go to the committee members, who typically major in hospitality management and event management, as a scholarship. “They are a fundraiser for the students. All proceeds go back to them,” said John Kramer, Veishea cherry pie faculty adviser. More than 150 volunteers help make the cherry pies a success. “I heard about it when I first came to Iowa State for a visit. The history of it and how deep-rooted it is really drew me in,” said Sara Dickinson, Veishea cherry pie senior chairwoman. Dickinson said she was amazed by the quantity of pies being produced when she first volunteered to help make the pies.

Pancake feed

The midnight pancake feed is just one of many timeless Veishea traditions. The pancake feed is held on Central Campus Friday and Saturday from midnight to 3 a.m. “Keep Veishea tradition alive by treating yourself to some delicious pancakes Friday and Saturday,” said Connor Writz, a sophomore in software engineering, and student worker for the Veishea catering committee. Chris’ Cakes, a world-famous pancake company located in Pocahontas, Iowa, has been in business for 45 years. They provide all of the pancake ingredients as well as cooking and eating utensils and prepare the pancakes for the event. -Lindsay MacNab, AmesEats Flavors

Dickinson has worked on the committee since her freshman year at Iowa State. “It is a great networking opportunity. You are able to make new connections and new friends,” Dickinson said. “It gets a little crazy, but those are the times when it is so much fun and time just flies,” Dickinson said. “The

producing 14,500 pies, it is not feasible to serve ice cream with every pie. Now a dollop of whipped cream is on every pie to add a little extra zest. Everyone can enjoy a Veishea cherry pie, even those individuals who have gluten intolerance. The filling is completely gluten-free, so committee members accommodate by only putting the filling in a pie tin with a dollop of whipped cream for individuals who cannot have the pie crust.
