Board of Regents supports tuition increase By Jake.Dalbey @iowastatedaily.com Thursday marked the final day of the April Board of Regents meeting, where tuition increase took center stage, along with proposals for residence hall rates and several ISU milestones. The regents were all in favor of the fee increase. However, the actual amount will be finalized at the next meeting. Board of Regents president Bruce Rastetter began talk of

tuition rates by recapping the February meeting notes. “With the limited funds the universities will be given, we will look into tuition increases as early as fall 2016,” Rastetter said. “We spoke in our February meeting about the possibility if funds remained limited we would instruct the universities to look at tuition increases.” Citing several reasons behind the proposed increase, including student enrollment rates and the pay of professional and scientific employees, ISU faculty representative Rob Wal-

lace spoke on the need for faculty salary increases. “After experiencing historical growth, the additional stresses on faculty in higher education have taken their toll,” Wallace said. “The stress levels are easily palpable with the increased workload.” Despite Wallace’s appreciation for the resilience of ISU staff, frequent years of absent pay increases have led many staff members to feel unre-

warded. “In short, faculty are stressed,” Wallace said. “Having to do more for less pay makes the faculty feel under appreciated. Hearing no salary increases is frustrating and sends a message to staff.” Though Wallace praised Iowa State’s educational opportunities, he claims that unsatisfied staff may not lead to a positive future

for the university. “Iowa State is a bargain for education, but in order to keep this education high, you need good staff,” Wallace said. It’s simple. Tuition freezes and higher running costs do not create a sustainable situation, which doesn’t allow for excellence to remain.” Tera Lawson, representing the professional and scientific employees of Iowa State, briefly talked about increasing pay for the many staff on campus, includ-

Georgie Tsushima created the FLC Skateshop on Lincoln Way to share his love for skating with the community he grew up in. Tsushima passed away in 2015, but his impact on Ames will remain through the skate park, which the community is attempting to have named in his honor.

Library to be open 24/7 next two weeks By Mollie.Shultz @iowastatedaily.com Iowa State is experimenting during this upcoming Dead Week and Finals Week to accommodate the growing student population and student demand. For the first time, Parks Library will be open 24/7 throughout Dead Week and Finals Week to provide students with a centralized study area. The longer hours will allow students to study continuously without interrupting their studies to go home at 2 a.m. when the library usually closes. Both Beth McNeil, dean of the library, and Jonathan Wickert, senior vice president and provost, played influential roles in ensuring that this experiment came to fruition. “This is a topic that Student Government had brought up about having the library be open

Parks Library on Central Campus is usually open from 7:30 a.m. to 2 a.m., but Student Government worked with the library staff to have the library accessible 24/7 during Dead Week and Finals Week.

around the clock during Finals Week and Dead Week,” Wickert said. McNeil, who arrived on campus from Purdue University in July,

said a student approached her in mid-fall asking about the possibility of having the library open to study 24/7. McNeil, who said she takes student success very seri-

ously, immediately began working with other staff to ensure that this was a possibility. “The library staff are committed to student success, so while this is a change for us, I would say we’re on board with making it work,” McNeil said. Wickert also said that ensuring students have uninterrupted study time is important to faculty. The faculty members understand the pressures students are under and don’t want them to have to be kicked out of the library at 2 a.m. “If a student is there really late at night studying … the faculty member in me doesn’t want to have to kick them out of the library,” Wickert said. Traer Schon, senior in journalism and mass communication, said that although he isn’t sure he will use the library in the middle of the night, it’s nice to have it as an option. “It would definitely be helpful just because if you’re working

on something and having to change places or something, it could disrupt that, so I think it will be a good change,” Schon said. George Knight, an exchange student in political science, said he is looking forward to not having to leave the library at closing time. “I get more distracted at home, so I won’t have to go home,” Knight said. “I can sleep here.” The faculty also thought about students’ health during this time, and while they are encouraging students to spend their time studying in the library, they are also encouraging students to take their health seriously and know when they need to sleep. They want happy, healthy, well-

By Alex.Hanson @iowastatedaily.com ISU Police are looking for five males who robbed an apartment in West Ames on Thursday afternoon. ISU Police received a report of an armed robbery at 3:21 p.m. Thursday after five black males entered an apartment at 4709 Steinbeck St. in Ames. While four of the individuals rounded up cash and a cell phone, the fifth individual pointed an as-

sault rifle at residents after telling them to get on the ground. Police were unable to locate the suspects, who were last seen on foot heading east toward South Dakota Avenue. Police believe the robbery is likely an isolated incident, said Aaron Delashmutt, interim assistant vice president and chief of police. All five males are believed to be between the ages of 18 and 20, with height ranging from 5 feet 6 inches to 6 feet 2 inches,

according to police. One male was described as wearing a blue hoodie and gray sweatpants. The other males were wearing dark clothing. Delashmutt said ISU Police will continue to patrol the area, but no threat remains to the community as of Thursday evening. Anyone who sees anything suspicious or has information is asked to call ISU Police at 515-294-4428 or 911. The Daily’s Alex Connor contributed to this story.

Cleaning up the world ISU staff, students discuss Earth Day, environment By Katlyn.Campbell @iowastatedaily.com It’s been 46 years since the first Earth Day was commemorated with 20 million people participating in rallies across the world. While Iowa State doesn’t have nearly as many people as were present at the first Earth Day, some of the same issues represented then are challenging our Earth today. Beth Caissie, assistant professor of geological and atmospheric sciences, Paige Myers, sophomore in global resource systems, and Maximilian Viatori, associate professor of anthropology, spoke to the Iowa State Daily in regard to their views on Earth Day and the environmental issues plaguing the world today. ISD: Earth Day is this Friday. Are you doing anything special for it? Caissie: “I’m not. I feel like I probably should. It comes at such a busy time in the semester.” Myers: “I am. This whole month I’ve been doing the zero waste challenge, trying to eliminate everything that I would’ve put into the landfill. “The Green Umbrella is sponsoring a zero waste week this week so I’m doing social media stuff with that and I’m tabling on Earth Day for my business Rejuvafruit.” Myers believes this Earth Day is different from the past because she’s more aware of her effect on the environment considering her zero waste challenge, which she’s participating in for the whole month of April. Meyers: “I’m actually really excited about Earth Day this year because I’m really passionate about food security and with that comes a lot of food waste, so

trying to make sure that doesn’t happen makes me really passionate about the effects that food waste can have on our environment.” Viatori: “I am not. I think things like Earth Day are good reminders maybe of broader things that are going on that are obviously things we should be dealing with and thinking about on a daily basis, but as we get caught up in our regular work and life we forget about them.” Caissie, Myers and Viatori all recognized the other 364 days of the year as being adequate time to practice conservation and sustainable efforts. Caissie: “I definitely recycle and compost and ride my bike as much as possible. I try to only use the energy that I need. The kind of car that I drive, fuel economy was a factor in buying it.” Caissie also invested in a water heater for her home that will reduce the amount of energy her family uses.

being waste-free this month, she has been cutting down her plastic consumption by buying food items in bulk and using reusable silverware, a recycled toothbrush and cloth napkins. She cites her switch to a wastefree month as the reason she’s considering transitioning her life permanently to that kind of lifestyle. Viatori makes an effort to walk or ride his bike to school every day, pays attention to the amount of waste he is producing and donates money to conservation groups to help fund research. ISD: If you had to choose one environmental issue that is most important to you what would it be? Caissie: “Climate change. I really feel like it’s the biggest challenge that we are going to face in the next 100 years. [We’ll have to] figure out how to adapt to climate change because it’s happening whether we like it or not.” Right after college, Caissie moved to Alaska for six years,

TSUSHIMA p1 But the day of Tsushima’s grand opening was also the day he lost his life. His mother can recall — to the minute — the events leading up to his death. 8:39 p.m., July 18, 2015 Downing-Matibag, who was visiting her mother in Ohio, gets off the phone with Tsushima, who had said he was exhausted from a long day’s work in opening the shop. 8:43 p.m. - Tsushima texts his mother a link to a Humans of Ames post about his story and the skateshop. 8:52 p.m. - Tsushima does not respond to his friend’s text. 9:20 p.m. - Tsushima does not respond to his mother’s text: “Is everything OK?” “It looks like he died within minutes after sending me that text at 8:43 p.m.,” Downing-Matibag said. “I figure it was somewhere in that nine minutes where he texted me and his friend texted him.” Tsushima, who for a time attended but didn’t graduate from Iowa State, spent hours every day at the Ames Skate Park helping young, new skateboarders learn basic tricks. He would even help his mentees with math homework if they needed it. Tsushima had left Iowa State for California to make a name for himself in the professional skateboarding world. He became a professional skateboard videographer for Vox Footwear and social media wizard and later had been invited by Stereo Sound Company to go to ammateur level skateboarding, meaning he would’ve traveled with a

where she saw firsthand the effects of climate change. While working in Alaska for an environmental organization, Caissie experienced winters shorter than usual that resulted in premature thawing in December and January. While in Alaska, Caissie talked to native Alaskans who rely on walruses for their food and livelihood. They told her about the noticeable changes they’ve seen in just one generation in regard to hunting and ice conditions. She said now that it’s thawing, it’s impacting the environment in a lot of ways. One impact Caissie has seen due to the thawing is the release of methane into the environment from ice. Caissie’s studies based on sediment cores in the Bering Sea allow her to study small fossils of single-celled algae called diatoms. Through her research, Caissie tries to find answers regarding the retreat of sea ice in the summer in the arctic. Myers: “I think at this point,

skating team. While working for Vox Footwear, Tsushima attended a community college full time. “He called me Aug. 14, 2014, and said, ‘Mom, I’m so excited I’m living my dream now,’” Downing-Matibag said. “That night, I got a call at 11:30 p.m. from a police officer saying, ‘Your son has been in a very serious accident. We don’t know if he is going to live.’” Tsushima had flown 15 feet into the air in a bowl without a helmet, lost his balance and fell. Surgeons had to perform a craniectomy, where a portion of Tsushima’s skull was removed to allow the brain to swell outward instead of inward. Tsushima was in intensive care in California for about two months, after which he came back to Ames, still without that portion of his skull. The injury didn’t affect his long term memory, but Tsushima lost all of his shortterm memory. “He was in the bottom 1 percent of people with memory,” Downing-Matibag said. “He had no short term memory whatsoever. If I would say to him: earplugs, tablet, phone, what did I just say? We would be lucky if he would remember one word.” Tsushima had to relearn the English language. His mother said he treated learning how to speak again as a full-time job. He spent eight hours a day watching DVDs trying to relearn a skill most learn at the age of 3. Tsushima worked his way back to being able to speak and regained his short-term memory.

food waste is most important

to me.” Myers said $165 billion worth of food goes into the landfills every year, which creates mass amounts of methane. In September 2015, Myers and three other ISU students started the business Rejuvafruit with the aim of reducing post-harvest loss and malnutrition while encouraging economic development and environmental sustainability. Viatori: “It has to be climate change right now. I don’t think that there’s a more pressing issue and I think almost all other issues are one way or another related to that.” Viatori credits climate change as an existential threat and the biggest looming crisis right now for humanity and people as a whole. The lack of discussion on climate change within our current electoral cycle leads Viatori to believe that there are still people today who don’t see this issue as a threat that needs to be talked about more publicly. For the rest of the interview, visit iowastatedaily.com.

“He eventually got his life back,” Downing-Matibag said. “He was so motivated to ... recover and get his life back and move on and do all the things he had always dreamed of that nothing was going to stop him. I had never seen anybody make such a comeback from such a devastating injury in my entire life.” The return of his memory brought the return of a long-term dream of opening his own skate shop back in Ames. Tsushima had opened a skateshop in high school, located near Battles Barbecue on Welch Avenue, and had closed it when he moved to California to pursue his skating dreams. He wanted to be productive and give back again. And FLC Skateshop was how he was going to do it. “I opened FLC Skateshop for it to be a community center, especially for artists and skateboarders,” Tsushima said in a Humans of Ames Facebook post the day he opened his shop. “Skateboarding is an art, every skater expresses himself/herself differently. It’s a positive escape, you forget about your problems and you focus on learning new things.” The shop was closed for the week and opened up again the next Saturday, July 25, a day, Downing-Matibag said, was a day of record sales in her son’s honor. “As soon as people heard it was open, they were lining up to come in,” DowningMatibag said. “We have never made that much [in one day] since.” After Tsushima died, his friends weren’t so sure how

the shop would perform. Bryan Jones, along with other friends of Tsushima, helped Tsushima fix those holes in the walls, missing floor tiles, water leakages and get rid of those eight mirrors and old sink. “We had our doubts,” said Jones, senior in kinesiology and health. “Nobody is as good as Georgie at doing this, but we did what we could.” Jones, who had met Tsushima at the Ames skate park about 11 years ago, helps manage FLC Skateshop, helping any customer who comes along. “That’s honestly one of the main reasons Georgie wanted the shop,” Jones said. “He wanted a spot for more than just us skaters who are doing it all the time. He wanted a place where people who were just interested could come in and hang out and learn more. We accept anybody.” Jones said the fall remained steadily busy, but the winter months were tougher, simply for the fact the weather made it difficult to skateboard. The spring, however, is a time when business starts to pick up again. As for the future of the shop, Jones said the goal is just to keep it around for the local community. Just like Georgie wanted. “We’re not trying to make it big,” Jones said. “We’re just trying to stay here for the community and keep it here as long as we can for George. It may not be in this exact location but we would like to remain FLC Skateshop in Ames. That would just be awesome.”

Through his own personal experience of traveling abroad, columnist Kelly offers three pieces of advice for anyone is plans to spend time in a different culture: keep an open mid, don’t over plan and set realistic expectations.

Prepare before traveling International trips require open mind, proper planning By Francis.Kelly @iowastatedaily.com

he National Travel and Tourism Office reported in 2015 that nearly 33 million Americans traveled abroad. With international travel becoming more popular, whether it’s for a study abroad program, internship, business trip or simply a vacation, countless articles and checklists are available online that list tasks to complete and items to pack in preparation for an international experience. While these preparations are great, the most important thing to do before traveling overseas is perhaps to prepare mentally. Through my own international experiences, I have found these tips essential in order to optimize learning and overall experiences while spending time in different cultures: Keep an open mind While at first this may seem to be common sense, it may be more difficult to maintain once submerged into a different culture. It can be especially difficult to maintain in Western European cultures, which at the foundation, seem very similar to our own. However, many people fail to realize that these cultures still feature a large amount of differences from our own. If you enter a new unfamiliar culture with the expectations that it will mirror the customs of your own, you are likely to not only be disappointed but also miss out on a large portion of the learning experience that comes with spending time in another culture. I have found it useful to reference the Ronald Heifetz’s Adaptive Leadership Model in order to optimize international experiences. This learning model consists of observation, interpretation and engagement.

When you first find yourself in a new culture or environment, it’s important to observe the actions of those around you. Some things that commonly go unnoticed in your culture may come across as strange, rude or even illegal in a new culture. This is why it’s important to keep an open mind throughout the entire process. After you spend time interacting with those around you, you can begin to interpret what these actions mean. You are likely to establish a greater understanding of the values the culture resembles and possibly even take away a few of these ideals to incorporate into your own lifestyle. Once you have observed and interpreted the environment, you should begin to engage. Engaging before this point could not only tamper with your learning and understanding of the culture but could also leave you with a much greater risk of accidentally insulting someone. While it’s important to observe, interpret and engage, it’s also important to note that the process is ongoing. If you hope to maximize your experience, you will need to continue observing and interpreting even while you are engaging with the culture. Don’t jump to conclusions. Instead of getting upset at the restaurant or tourist guide for what you would classify as “poor service” or something unexpected, appreciate the fact that you got to experience a different culture’s values and norms first hand. Don’t over plan Proper planning prevents poor performance. American culture closely relates to this popular saying. As Americans, it is common for us to constantly plan out our days. Whether it’s managing our time, planning a date, scheduling weekend activities or preparing for summer vacation, it’s common for us to develop a plan for almost every aspect of our lives. Depending on where you travel, you may not see this amount of planning elsewhere. However, regardless of the culture you intend to visit, planning can quickly and easily ruin your international experience.

As cliché as it may sound, you can only plan for things that you can anticipate. While visiting the large wellknown tourist attractions is likely a must, you are much more likely to miss the hidden gems of the country if you only visit tourist hotspots. Don’t be afraid to travel off the beaten path. As J.R.R. Tolkien put it, “Not all those who wander are lost.” The most beneficial experiences you will have are likely to be the ones you didn’t plan for. Don’t walk past the unique street performers and pretend to be looking at your phone or avoid local festivals because you’re too focused on the map when trying to find your way to the Eiffel Tower. Set realistic expectations We are often sold on the idea of traveling abroad by the stories and experiences shared by our friends, families, organizations or versions we see in movies and on TV. It’s important to note that the experiences being shared are typically the highlights of their trips, not their entire trip. If you expect to travel abroad and have a memorable Hollywood-styled night every night, you are likely to be disappointed. While these nights are still likely to occur, there will also be nights where you will find yourself staying in. It’s likely there will be times you go out only to find empty streets. However, there is no such thing as a bad experience. Every experience you have will be new and educational. It’s important you don’t get discouraged from these experiences — or what you may view as non-experiences, because nothing is a non-experience. Don’t blow off talking to the group of locals, which could be the highlight of your trip, because you’re too upset your concert was rained out. International perspectives — beyond the category of general education credit classes offered at Iowa State — can change the way you look at the world. However, if you enter a new culture with a closed mind, a list dictating your every move and unrealistic expectations of your time, you are likely to miss out on the real beauty of traveling to a new culture.

LETTER TO THE EDITOR

Bill Fennelly attacks non-favorite players By Cheyenne Shepherd Former ISU basketball player Editors note: This letter was published in the Des Moines Register on Wednesday. Cheyenne Shepherd is an attorney in Kokomo, Ind., and played for ISU coach Bill Fennelly in 1995-97. Dear Iowa State Fans, My name is Cheyenne P. Shepherd. When I played at Iowa State from 1994 to 1997, my name was Cheyenne Palmer. From 1995 to 1997, I played for Bill Fennelly. I am writing this letter in support of Nikki Moody and the legal action she has taken against Bill Fennelly. I have never met her, and with the exception of sending her a Facebook message of support to which she did not respond, I have never communicated with her in any way. You probably don’t remember me and I am certain what I write below will not be popular with the majority of you. That being said, let me be clear about my career as a Cyclone: Bill Fennelly did not recruit me to Iowa State, however my senior year in high school, he did offer me a scholar-

ship to play for him at Toledo; I did not play much at Iowa State; I was never a starter; and I played less my senior year than I did my junior year. In short, I had an average college career at best. Further, I transferred to Iowa State after leaving Drake due to conflict with the coach. I am not black. I am Cuban. The majority of people voicing their opinion on Nikki Moody’s lawsuit are fervent supporters of Bill Fennelly. They comment in absolutes; such as, he “never” says anything negative or he “always” has his players’ best interests at heart. I am here to tell you that a team coached by Bill Fennelly cannot be discussed in absolutes. It can only be discussed as a dichotomy; between the favorites and the non-favorites. It is for this reason that I believe Nikki Moody; as well as those fans and players who support Bill Fennelly are all telling the truth. I was assuredly NOT a favorite of Bill Fennelly. And he made sure I knew it every day, in every way. I was demeaned, berated, and embarrassed in front of others; he called me names and tried

to make me feel worthless (by the grace of God, friends and family he never quite succeeded). I was not alone. There were others: six to be exact, not including one other, who fell from favored status during my senior season. Four of the six non-favorites were black. Two graduated with me and two transferred after the season. I don’t know if Bill Fennelly is racist in the conventional sense, but I do know if you are not a favorite, he has no compunction about attacking you in racial terms. I witnessed it and others did as well. The truth of the matter is Bill Fennelly will attack a player he doesn’t like on any terms. I do not believe him to be evil, but he can be very cruel. I don’t believe he has any remorse, because he tells himself, and his team, he is doing it to make a player better. Those players that are favorites, take him at his word, because for them it’s true. He only pushes them to be better. However, those of us on the wrong side, the non-favorites, get pushed around simply because he can. He seems to take plea-

sure in it. I was not made better by Bill Fennelly on the floor or anywhere else. I am stronger for having survived him, but that’s about all I can say. So, how can the former players supporting him be telling the truth? Because for them, he will do anything. He does consider them family. He does treat them with love and respect and he does help them believe in themselves. How can the fans supporting him be telling the truth as well? Because he always puts his best foot forward publicly. And because you, as a fan, only see what Bill Fennelly wants you to see. Nevertheless, there are others, like me, who have had a very different experience with Bill Fennelly. Please consider, before you attack Nikki Moody for what I’m certain you don’t understand, there may only be truth and no lies. For my part, I believe all the players and fans who have commented, including Nikki Moody. There is plenty of truth to go around. Sincerely, Cheyenne Shepherd (Palmer) #14

Help save environment before it’s too late 2516: the year that the plastic water bottle you threw away yesterday will have completed its decomposition process. That’s 500 years of 14 billion pounds of garbage being dumped into the world’s oceans, and 500 years of 3.4 million people dying each year as a result of water pollution. It’s also 500 years of a child dying every eight seconds because of contaminated water consumption. Humans have already done enough damage to this planet. The next 500 years are not projected to be any better if the habits that have gotten us here continue. The concept is relatively simple. Buy a reusable water bottle and coffee mug. Locate a recycling bin instead of using your trash can as a basketball hoop. Bike to class or work every now and again instead of driving. If you do drive, form a carpool so a few other people don’t contribute to gas emissions. Take a 10-minute shower instead of a 20-minute shower to save water. On paper, these are all things that everyone can do to make the next 500 years appear less grim. Humans, however, are not only wasteful but quite unskilled when it comes to practicing what they preach. Plastic bottles are purchased every day on campus, their contents are consumed and the bottle is thrown away. The fact that caffeine is a must for any self-respecting college student paired with the perpetually long line at Caribou and Starbucks indicates that the number of paper cups used every day is also sky high. Those living with others know all too well just how long a shower can last, but the amount of water they use is never the top priority. The average American uses 17.2 gallons of water when they restrict their shower to 8.2 minutes, which usually doesn’t happen. Now is the time to make a change, not tomorrow, or next week or after finals. Unless we want to force future generations 500 years from now to have to wear oxygen tanks because the air will be too polluted to breathe, we must all take into account what our actions mean at the end of the day. It doesn’t matter if you want to dive into the deep end — just don’t get confused by the floating plastic bags like sea animals do and try to eat them thinking they’re harmless jellyfish because it won’t end well — and change the way you live your life or simply buy a refillable water bottle. No action is too small. This is our planet, and it’s our job to make it a safe place to live now and 500 years from now.

Hockey announces captains, awards By Austin.Anderson @iowastatedaily.com

Lani Tons/Iowa State Daily

Senior forward Chase Rey fights for the puck against Ohio on Oct. 10, 2015, at the Ames/ISU Ice Arena. Rey and junior defenseman Kody Reuter were named as team captains for the 2016-2017 season.

Cyclone Hockey has named senior forward Chase Rey and junior defenseman Kody Reuter as its captains for the 2016-2017 season. Rey and Reuter will share captain duties for a Cyclone Hockey team coming off a runner-up finish in the American Collegiate Hockey Association National Championship game. The captains were named during an April 2 team banquet. This is the second consecutive year the Cyclones have gone with co-captain duties because the votes, cast by the players, were so close. Rey has often been referred to by Cyclone Hockey coach Jason Fairman as one of the most skilled players on the roster, but with only eight points total last season, injuries, more so than anything else, kept him off the scoreboard. “Injuries are something that happen and I’ve been

somewhat injury prone during my years of playing,” Rey said. “Next year is a new year, and I’m hoping I am not injured, and I’m sure the other guys are hoping the same thing. Whether I am in the stands or on the ice, I can still be a leader on the team so I was really honored to be selected as a captain.” Rey had a front row seat to see what it takes to be a captain for Cyclone Hockey last season. Rey served as an assistant captain to his roommates Cory Sellers and Alex Stephens, who split the captain duties a season ago. “It will definitely be tough to replace two guys like that. They were great captains and two of the best captains I’ve ever had,” Rey said. “What I really take out of those two is leading by example whether it was off the ice or in the locker room or in the classroom and that’s something I’ll take into next year. “I’ll try to lead by example and if the guys voted me as captain I am hoping they will follow in my footsteps

with how I am going to be carrying myself in the next year.” Reuter scored the first goal of his Cyclone Hockey career last season and is known as much more of a physical presence than an offensive threat. Fairman said there will not be any problems with Reuter being a junior opposed to the usual senior status most captains carry. “I think for me it’s more on the ice coming ready to play and be a model to all the players and putting 100 percent into everything,” Reuter said. “I focus more on that than having the title of a leader.” The team is currently doing off-season workouts and meeting with players to discuss their roles. The role of the captains leading up to the season will be to meet with Fairman and talk about the culture and where they want to go with their team. “They should have a good sense of what type of team they want to have,” Fairman said.

Track, field teams take on heavy workload Men scatter map with five meets Lani Tons/Iowa State Daily

By Allison.Walters @iowastatedaily.com

Senior Deon Sanders competes in the 400-meter dash at the Iowa State Classic on Feb. 13.

The ISU men’s track and field team has a busy weekend ahead as it prepares to split up across the country for a four-meet weekend. Some athletes, including Deon Sanders, will take on rival Iowa at the Musco Twilight in Iowa City. The Cyclones will also compete at the Virginia Challenge in Charlottesville, Va., the Stanford Twilight in Palo Alto, Calif., the John McDonnell Invitational in Fayetteville, Ark. and the LSU Alumni Gold in Baton Rouge, La. Deon Sanders, a sprinter who will run in the 400-meter dash, is looking forward to facing athletes from Iowa this weekend. After transferring from Iowa Central Community College, Sanders is familiar with Division I competition. “I know I’m going against some tough competitors,” Sanders said. “I have to bring my A-game and nothing less.” Jan Jeuschede, who will compete in the shot put this weekend in Louisiana, made his outdoor debut at the Sun Angel Classic and scored about three feet under his personal-best throw.

Jeuschede has felt a little off his game since a break after the Big 12 Indoor Championship, which took place in Ames. “It’s coming back together a little bit,” Jeuschede said. “I’m feeling pretty solid.” Jacob Aune and Brandon Wheat will compete in the 800-meter run, and Daniel Everett and Brian Llamas will compete in the 1,500-meter run at the Stanford Twilight. Nathan Rodriguez will be the only Cyclone competing in the 1,500-meter run at the John McDonnell Invitational. Decathlete Taylor Sanderson will compete in the 110-meter hurdles, the javelin and long jump at the LSU Alumni Gold this weekend. Chris Celona, who made his outdoor debut last weekend, will compete in the hammer throw. Four of the 15 Cyclones traveling to the Musco Twilight will compete in the 400-meter hurdles. With the Drake Relays and Big 12 Outdoor Championship approaching, the Cyclones are preparing physically and mentally. “Everyone has to be mentally ready,” Sanders said.

ISU women send 24 athletes to three meets By Kyle.Heim @iowastatedaily.com With the biggest track meet in the state of Iowa on the horizon — the Drake Relays, which begin next week — the ISU women’s track and field team is peaking at the right time. The Cyclones, who have tallied 14 wins throughout six outdoor meets, will send about three-quarters of their roster to three meets during the weekend in an effort to continue the momentum. Seven runners will head to the Virginia Challenge in Charlottesville, Va.; two field athletes will compete in the LSU Alumni Gold meet in Baton Rouge, La.; and a mix of 15 track and field athletes will travel to Iowa City to compete in the Musco Twilight. “We have a really young group,” ISU assistant track coach Andrea Grove-McDonough pointed out earlier in the season. “We’re kind of having to hope for some good things for some young gals this year.” The young athletes have undoubtedly made contributions for the team this season — five of the team’s

13 individual event titles belong to freshmen. But the veterans will now be relied on more heavily to lead, as the Big 12 Outdoor Track and Field Championship is only three weeks away. If the early-season performances of the team’s third-, fourth- and fifth-year athletes are any indication of what’s to come, Iowa State shouldn’t have any problem ending the season on a high note. Senior Alyssa Gonzalez has three event titles, 2014 NCAA Outdoor shot put champion Christina Hillman will compete in her first outdoor shot put competition this season at the LSU Alumni Gold and 2013 cross-country All-American Bethanie Brown appeared healthy last week in her first outdoor track and field event in nearly two years. Brown finished second in the 1,500-meter run at the Jim Duncan Invitational on Saturday. Her teammate, Kate DeSimone, who didn’t compete during the indoor season, placed first. “[We ran Brown] just to get her feet wet, back in college racing for the first time [this year],” said ISU assistant volunteer coach Matt Valeriani. “[The Jim Duncan Invitational] was a good venue for her to go out and see where she was at and get a good baseline for her performance. “[Brown and DeSimone’s times] were great opening marks for where they are at this point in the season.” Brown will compete in the

3,000-meter run Saturday at the Musco Twilight on Saturday. Iowa State’s top two crosscountry runners from the fall 2015 season, Perez Rotich and Erin Hooker, will also return to competition for the Cyclones this weekend. Hooker, who ran a nearly 90-second personal best time in the 10,000-meter run in the only other meet she has competed in this season, will run with Rotich in the 5,000-meter run at the Virginia Challenge. Despite being only a sophomore, Jhoanmy Luque has been one of Iowa State’s

most consistent women’s track and field athletes during the past two years and will represent the team in the triple jump and long jump at the LSU Alumni Gold. While Iowa State lost its most impactful freshman in Kate Hall because of a transfer to Georgia, the team still has reason for optimism as it continues to get healthier and the freshmen continue to show improvement. The Virginia Challenge will kick off Friday, while the LSU Alumni Gold and Musco Twilight meets will be saturday-only events.

ISU building off winning streak Freshman infielder Sally Woolpert steps into the batter box against Omaha on April 14. Iowa State ended its 10-game losing streak during its doubleheader against South Dakota on Tuesday.

Lani Tons/Iowa State Daily

Softball attempts to continue momentum, improve Big 12 record By Sean.Sears @iowastatedaily.com Iowa State ended its 10game losing streak this week, sweeping a doubleheader against South Dakota on Tuesday. With the rivalry game a g a i n s t I o w a b e i n g r escheduled to next week because of inclement weather, the Cyclones will head on the road to face another Big 12 opponent. Iowa State sits in last place in the conference

with a 17-24 record and 0-6 against Big 12 teams. The Cyclones also head into Lubbock, Texas, to face off with the Red Raiders of Texas Tech in a threegame series this weekend. The Red Raiders have fared better against Big 12 teams, with a 4-5 record, putting them fourth in the conference, but are only two games better than the Cyclones overall, at 19-25. Luckily for Iowa State, the bats came alive this week, scoring 18 runs in just two games against

South Dakota. The offensive catalyst has been senior shortstop Brittany Gomez, who was 6-for-9 at the plate and drove in six runs herself. Gomez believed the offense finally “clicked” as the Cyclones finally started executing the game plan. “It felt good overall,” Gomez said. “All of us together, hitting through inside pitches and outside pitches hitting into the [opposite field].” The Cyclones approach at the plate will be key this

weekend, as the Red Raiders have the worst team ERA in the Big 12, coming in at 5.25 on the season. If Iowa State can keep responding to adversity like it did earlier this week, it can come away with its first Big 12 conference wins of the season. Another bright spot for the team was freshman Emma Hylen, who threw all seven innings in the second half of the doubleheader Tuesday. “I thought Emma threw great in that second

game,” said coach Stacy Gemeinhardt-Cesler. “She made pitches all game and worked herself out of some jams.” As promising as the two wins against South Dakota were, Iowa State still has to prove it can win games late, but with the offense finally being able support the pitching staff, things will get easier moving forward. “That is so key,” Hylen said. “When they are making plays like that, you can trust them to get you the

support you need to go out there and execute on your end.” The Cyclones will attempt to turn the corner in their season after spending the last two weeks struggling to pull out wins. Now, with the ISU offense finding its rhythm, the team just has to remember what got it those two wins. “We just have to keep being aggressive,” said sophomore Kelsey McFarland. “Go after the first good pitch and rip it.”

ISU tennis focuses on finishing strong Cyclones ready to conclude most successful season By Les.Mwirichia @iowastatedaily.com It’s been a good season for the ISU tennis team, which has faced constant adversity since the beginning of January. And that season will come to a close this weekend against TCU and Texas Tech. Injuries affected the roster early in the season, and the loss of Anna Kuuttila, the team’s No. 3 player, didn’t help matters. Mixing in five newcomers to the program, the Cyclones were set to repeat its past woes. But the Cyclones didn’t give in and have been impressive on and off the court. The senior/freshman duo of Alejandra Galvis and Annabella Bonadonna have

been the powerhouse duo in the Big 12 so far, going 5-0 against Big 12 opponents. Senior Ana Gasparovic was named an Academic All-Big 12 First Team for the third time in her ISU career. Gasparovic is a Croatian native studying management information systems. Gasparovic is currently 6-5 in singles play this season and is among Iowa State’s top-20 in career wins. “We are happy for Ana,” said head coach Armando Espinosa. “She has put together a great résumé for herself on and off the court here at Iowa State. I am honored and extremely proud of all her hard work and how she has represented this team, on the court and in her studies.” With all the congratulations going around, the Cyclones are still preparing for Big 12 competition. Iowa State will host No. 17 Texas Tech on Friday. The Red Raiders have a chance to end their season on a high

note by winning all five of their road contests. On Sunday, the Cyclones will host No. 33 TCU. The Horned Frogs (13-4, 5-2 Big 12) are coming off two big road wins against Oklahoma and No. 15 Oklahoma State. TCU has been strong this season in doubles play. The Horned Frogs have one ranking with Seda Arantekin and Caroline Wegner, who check in at No. 27 in doubles, according to the International Tennis Association. Iowa State’s No. 1, Samantha Budai and Liza Buss, will likely face them. “We have two tough team ahead of us this weekend to finish off the regular season,” said associate head coach Chris Williams. “Just like we have been all season, we will stick to our strategy of winning the doubles point. We know that Texas Tech is a good team and so is TCU. So we just have to be prepared and hopefully end the season on a good note.”

ISU junior Samantha Budai gets into position before returning the ball against Kansas on April 10. The ISU women’s tennis team’s season will end this weekend with matches against TCU and Texas Tech.

The Cyclones won’t qualify for the Big 12 Tournament on April 8, but this weekend still provides the team with a chance to prove its worth after its most successful season in history.

“We have had a really good week of practice,” said redshirt freshman Liera Bender. “We talked about the season and our coaches told us that they are really proud of us this season, but

we still have a chance to prove ourselves this weekend by beating Tech and TCU.” Action will begin at 3 p.m. Friday at the Ames Racquet and Fitness Center.

PARKS p1 prepared students, McNeil said, which Wickert agreed with. “Taking care of themselves means getting sleep,” Wickert said. “It means eating healthy food. It also means exercise and taking a break.” Wickert and McNeil plan on being at the library at least once during that 24/7

period to work and speak with students. McNeil will work two overnight shifts, and Wickert will come in during the middle of the night one night to speak to students and gather feedback. If having the library open 24/7 is a success this semester, the school intends to continue doing it. McNeil said the library staff will also have extra

campus security patrols coming through the library throughout the night to ensure the safety of students. At least one regular library staff member will always be there, along with student employees assisting them. “It’s an example of both students and the administration thinking about this at the same time and coming together collaboratively,” Wickert said.

TUITION p1 ing in the dining center and research halls. “This employee group, though not as visible, are just as important,” Lawson said. “And without staff, these institutions would not be as big as we see today. Value is enacted through salary increases. We need to make any efforts to value professional and science employees.” After discussing tuition rates, future residence hall room and board rates were proposed with all three universities instituting an increase. Iowa State and the University of Northern Iowa proposed a 3.5 percent increase, while the University of Iowa was slightly smaller at 2.9 percent. The increase essentially boils down to an average cost hike between $150 and $200 per resident inside the residence hall system. Single rooms in both Buchanan and Eaton/Martin will be increased closer to $220-240 per resident. Both tuition and board

price increases are intended to alleviate stresses on staff by increasing faculty salary pay as enrollment continues to increase. ISU President Steven Leath also touched on various achievements and milestones associated with Iowa State in his address to the regents. Beginning with the College of Agriculture, Leath congratulated the department on being included in the top 10 agriculture schools in the nation, as well as the third largest agriculture school. The department of agriculture and biosystems engineering was also honored as the second best nationally. Introducing the newly constructed Augmented Human Lab at Iowa State, Leath explained the current project for the students and researchers within the program. “The idea is to make humans better using engineering to find ways to augment performance in human capabilities,” Leath said. “One of their

projects is building an exoskeleton that the army and police may wear to help them master firearm skills through muscle memory enhancement.” Related to the use of college research in hands of armed forces was the announcement of a $317 million public-private partnership with textile and fiber manufacturing, centered at MIT. Students in the material and apparel design program along with engineering and kinesiology students will work to create protective clothing for the military and police. This would be made possible through focusing on creating new textiles, polymers and fibers to invent new wearable armor similar to kevlar. As a final note, Leath mentioned the positive increase in online classes and resources for students, especially in the College of Liberal Arts and Sciences, as it helps offset the stresses of record enrollment rates on both faculty and students.
