SKILLS FOR THE FUTURE

Jourdan Moore, senior in elementary education, leads a group of young students in exercises as part of a physical education program for home-schooled youth in Ames.

Students help home-schooled kids get active By Carolina.Colon @iowastatedaily.com Iowa State University created a program several years ago that aims to get home-schooled children from kindergarten to fourth grade physically active. The program is set in Forker Hall under the supervision of ISU professors and students that are in the human sciences department. The children visit Iowa State every Monday from 2-3 p.m. for a total of 12 weeks. The physical activities they engage in include

swimming, dancing, running and other active sports. About three groups with 35 children run and play each Monday on campus, giving the home-schooled children the opportunity to interact with their peers. The physical education class not only enhances their physical skills, but also they’re cognitive and intellectual abilities, too. Spyridoula Vazou, assistant professor of kinesiology, loves to interact with the children. “Home-schooled children are very respectful, have a positive attitude and are very interested in meeting other people,” Vazou said. “In young kids, it is very important to be in physical education in order

Fundraising pages repair riot aftermath By Danielle.Ferguson @iowastatedaily.com The echoes of the Veishea riot still ring throughout campus. Sarah Ashby, former ISU student, said she was heartbroken to hear of what happened at Veishea and all the negative light the event was shedding on Iowa State. The Tuesday night riot that resulted in cars flipped, light poles tipped and a student airlifted with a head injury caused the longstanding ISU tradition to be canceled in the middle of the week. The cancellation caused many students, alumni and community members to become upset and want to make a change. The student who was injured was sent to an intensive care unit in Des Moines. John McCarroll, with university relations, said the last update he had heard about the individual was that he was released from the hospital and returned home to continue recovery. “It seemed like only negative things were coming out of this,” Ashby said. “This is my school. Ames is my home. The community doesn’t deserve that.” So she did something about it. Ashby created the webpage “$5 for ISU and Ames: Veishea Recovery” the day after the riot to raise funds for the family of the individual who was injured as well as to help those whose cars were flipped. She said she created the website as a way to “give students a chance to redeem themselves.” The page’s creation post states: “Donate $5.00 Towards Showing Everyone Who WE REALLY Are!” Within hours, the page had hundreds of Facebook

shares and had raised hundreds of dollars within a few hours. Within 12 hours, the page had raised about $3,000 from 274 contributors. Ashby said the page has plateaued a bit at about $5,796, with the latest donation being $65 around April 26. Ashby said she has been working with the city of Ames to make sure the money goes to the right people. She said she will create an account and give the rights to the city or “whoever has the authority to distribute that money fairly” and the bank will supervise the account. “I just want to make sure it’s done the proper way and they have whoever has the authority to look at the insurance information of the people whose cars were damaged and determine their deductibles and look at their service records to see if their car was actually damaged when they say it was,” Ashby said. This fundraising page was not the only one created from the aftermath of Veishea. Chris Martin with Food at First decided to show appreciation for the students who worked hard to put Veishea together. The page, entitled “Help ISU Clubs!” aims to raise money for Iowa State clubs that usually benefit from Veishea fundraising. “With the cancellation of Veishea, so many Iowa State clubs that count on Veishea as their primary yearly fundraising effort won’t have the opportunity to raise money. This is an effort to help them out. Won’t you please consider a small donation to help these committed young people?” Martin wrote on the page.

Sophomore William Rabe will be studying at Alabama next fall in an exchange program offered by NSE.

By Justin.Lo @iowastatedaily.com An ISU student will be following in his father’s footsteps when he spends the upcoming school year at the University of Alabama as part of the National Student Exchange program. William Rabe, a sophomore in chemical engineering and biochemistry from Ramsey, Minn., will have the opportunity to attend the alma mater of both his father and mother next year because of the program. “Both of my parents went [to

Alabama],” Rabe said. “We’re huge Alabama fans.” Rabe’s father, William Rabe III, spent a year at the University of Alabama as a participant in the National Student Exchange program 31 years ago as a college student at the University of North Dakota. “He had told me that he had done [the National Student Exchange program] and I didn’t realize that until this year,” Rabe said. “[The University of Alabama] has my major so that worked out pretty well.” It was at the University of Alabama that Rabe’s father met his

mother, Kimmie. Rabe’s father transferred to the University of Alabama and Rabe’s parents continued to study in Alabama until they both completed medical school there. The National Student Exchange program allows Iowa State students to study at different universities anywhere in the nation without having to pay the out-of-state tuition rate of that school. About 50 ISU students participate in the exchange every semester and can choose to study in places such as: Hawaii, Alaska, New York, California, New Mexico and Florida. “Part of Iowa State’s mission is to encourage our students to seek outof-classroom experiences and to really expand their college education,” said Debra Sanborn, the program director of Iowa State’s National Student Exchange program. “Students can take courses that we don’t offer here or add a different component to their academic curriculum that really suits their needs.” Sanborn also said that the program can help students study at institutions where they might want to attend graduate school, experience living in a part of the country where they would like to live in someday and learn from other experts in their field of study.

Students cope with being away from home By Katharina.Gruenwald @iowastatedaily.com Many international students cross long distances to get to Ames, making quick visits home over breaks much more difficult. Monalisa Pati, graduate student in business administration and international student from India, has not been home since she arrived in Ames last fall and she will not return until the next winter break. She said she has not been truly homesick, not even when she initially arrived. “I call my parents at least once a day over Skype,” Pati said. “Therefore I haven’t been that homesick, I just continue calling them.” Pati said she feels quite integrated into Ames. “And people here are so nice. If they can they will help you so much.” Pati has met a lot of friends both from India and other places at Iowa State, which she said is an important factor in not feeling homesick. She said she really misses the food from India

though. “I started to put up recipes or Skype with my mom while starting to cook these dishes,” Pati said. “My culinary skills have improved a lot after coming here.” Devanshi Mehta, a graduate student in community and regional planning and international student from India, said she

also misses Indian food. Mehta spent one year as a student in Buffalo and has since transferred to Iowa State, making this her second straight year away from home. She said she occasionally experiences homesickness, missing not just the food but also the way of life in her home city. “I come from a larger

city. I miss seeing people around,” Mehta said. “Here if I go out at seven, it is pretty much dead. I kind of miss the social life.” Mehta most often communicates via facebook with her mother. “It is rather expensive flying to India and it is a very long flight,” Mehta

Doug Walker, professor of marketing, discusses changes in the marketing department Wednesday. The potential changes include offering students three different tracks: Professional selling, analytical marketing and branding.

Marketing proposes potential 3-track curriculum changes By Kelly.McGowan @iowastatedaily.com Iowa State’s marketing department may make changes to curriculum by offering three tracks to students. The program would move from what Russell Laczniak, professor and chair of marketing, described as a “vanilla generic” program to a segmented track approach, which he said will better reflect the needs of employers. “We’re trying to align the skills that they can acquire with three main sorts of roles that students might have when they are employed,” Laczniak said. The proposed tracks are professional selling, analytical marketing and branding. Professional roles that match the tracks are salesperson, marketing analytics person and brand manager, respectively. “Not only are we expanding the curriculum in those areas, we are bringing it right up to current day,” said Doug Walker, assistant professor of marketing. He said that a digital marketing class is being considered, which would include social media components. Other course additions would

follow. Students will not be required to choose a track, but have the options to tailor their coursework toward a specific job. “All that was here is still here, there’s just more opportunity,” Walker said. The professional selling track includes more hands-on experiences like those in Marketing 343, personal sales. Students in this course work in conjunction with CAT employers to market and sell products to them as they role play buyers. Analytical marketing will be focused on analyzing and making decisions based on data. Laczniak said that this track is different than a traditional marketing degree and that the advisory council of area professionals is excited about this track. “Often times students major in marketing because they are good with soft skills,” Laczniak said. “This is very analytically driven and very hard skill oriented.” Unprecedented opportunities are available in marketing, said Walker. He said that these new opportunities quantitative ones. Branding, the third track, will allow students to think about

the concept of brands and brand promotion. Mallory Cates, a freshman in marketing, said that she thinks the track system will be a good thing. “It’s more narrow, so it’ll show people that they are more specialized,” Cates said. Walker said that he hopes that this will result in recruiters coming to Iowa State for jobs that they have not previously recruited for from the marketing major or the school, particularly analytic jobs. “It’s much less about what’s on their transcript as it is about tailoring their marketing education to what they want to do,” Walker said. This change is possible now due to an increase of faculty in the past five years. The department has been gathering a strategic core of faculty for a few years to be able to execute this plan, Laczniak said. Joon Wook Park, who has a doctorate from Penn State, taught at Southern Methodist University and has been hired as an analytics professor. Beatriz Periera recently finished her doctorate at the University of Michigan and will teach branding. Laczniak said that there is a collective enthusiasm among faculty about these opportunities.

Medical marijuana bill advances in state legislature By Varad.Diwate @iowastatedaily.com Medical marijuana use could become legal for patients with intractable epilepsy under a proposed bill in the state legislature. Senate File 2360 would make it legal for patients with intractable epilepsy to possess cannabidiol oil, derived from marijuana as recommended by a neurologist. The oil can include no more than three percent of tetrahydrocannabinol or THC, the component that gives a “high.” The use will be sanctioned by an identification card issued by the state. The bill passed the House Public Safety Committee on Tuesday and was passed by the Senate last week. The bill is a successor to a senate study bill introduced by Sen. Bolkcom, D-Iowa City. Proposed amendments include imposing a limit of 32-ounces for possession, changes to rules on cannabidiol registra-

Bolkcom said the legislation was formed in response to pleas of parents of children with intractable epilepsy. He said these children continue to suffer with pain while available treatments do not work. Cannabis oil has shown reduced risk of death and number of seizures, he said. “We are happy to see this push forward. We really do hope that it becomes law because it is very specific and constrained. It’s more than what we can ask for right now.” said Paul Gerlich, sophomore in software engineering and president of ISU NORML, university chapter of the National Organization for the Reform of Marijuana

Laws. NORML, a national non-profit, supports legalizing marijuana and works towards influencing the public on this issue. The bill does not protect the sale or production of cannabis in the state. So, people who need to get the cannabis oil would still need to travel to other states to get it. One of the concerns raised in the Senate was that people getting medical marijuana from other states would still be in violation of the federal law. “We are granting immunity to these folks with our county and city police,” said Sen. Amy Sinclair, R-Allerton on the Senate floor. “But, by crossing the state lines they are breaking federal law. We are giving a false sense of security to these folks as far as immunity goes.” Sinclair said the state can also run into problems with federal prosecution. Marijuana is currently listed as a schedule I drug and carries several penalties for use and trade under federal law. It

Rita Hart, D-Wheatland on the floor. “But, the truth is, it’s not fair mothers can’t get their children a medicine that will help them.” As of now, 20 states allow medical use for marijuana while two states allow recreational use. “The proposition that someone would be able to abuse it regularly...is far outweighed by the potential medical benefit for patients,” Gerlich said. He said the bill provides for a low risk of abuse as it permits a low amount of THC under prescription.

This reassured me how good I am at what I do.” Overall, the program focuses on seeing the children grow, meaning commitment to sticking with the program is necessary to see progress. “It is a very rewarding experience because I get to see the growth in both types of people [children and students],” Vazou said.

Kelby Wingert/Iowa State Daily

Keep in touch with Ames during summer. With many students leaving for the season, construction work will be at an all-time high. To avoid fall shock, know what will happen.

Stay up to date with Ames during summer Summer is only a few weeks away and with that many of us will go home or travel off for our internships, but while we are all out enjoying the beautiful weather, things are still happening at Iowa State and in Ames. Campus, and the area around it, is changing and will continue to change over the summer. If we don’t keep up with the events and happenings going on in the local area, we will be in for a big surprise when we return in the fall. In past summers, Iowa State has continued to make decisions on construction and other changes on campus. During the summer, when the students are mostly gone, it is the one of best time to do construction. On campus alone there will be construction happening in the residence halls, including getting a new dining center up and running, before the flood of students that will return in the fall. The only way to know for sure what changes are going to be made over the summer is to stay connected with the university. Staying connected is easy and there are many ways to do so. Checking the Iowa State website, reading the newspaper and continually checking your email over the summer will more than likely keep you up to date on the changes around you. It is equally our responsibility as students to keep in touch with the Ames community. We live in Ames for nine months of the year, it is our home, we should want to have a say, or at least know about, what kinds of changes are going to be made in the community we live in. Although most students have left and campus has quieted down, Ames is still a community outside of the university and will still be functioning on its own. An example of this would be last summer when the community made the decision for Kingland Systems to expand and make changes in campus town. Many students were upset about this decision when they came back in the fall, but had students continued to pay attention throughout the summer months, they would have had better knowledge of what changes were being made. There is going to be expansion in the residence halls over the summer because of the increase in the incoming number of students. More residence halls are, at some point, going to have to be built and more apartments will need to be purchased by the university in order to house all of these students. Many of these final decisions will be made in the summer before we return to school and if we aren’t keeping up with Iowa State we will be unaware of the changes that are being made. The impact that students have on Ames is more than just on the campus. Any off-campus business openings or closings will affect students as well. Ames City Council meetings are open to the public and the agendas are posted online. If students feel strongly about something, there is always the option to go to them and speak out about how you feel. We live in Ames for a majority of the year. Our opinion of what goes on in the community is just as important as anyone else’s, but if we shut ourselves off from Ames and from the school when we leave in the summer we are silencing our voices from making a difference in the community.

Courtesy of Thinkstock The Iowa Legislature passed a tuition freeze for the second year in a row. This freeze does not apply to out-of-state residents who need the tuition help most.

FREEZE LEAVES MANY OUT

ON THE FRINGE Tuition freeze only applies to in-state students, limited By Curran.McLaughlin @iowastatedaily.com

On Monday, Iowa’s House and Senate signed an education budget report which requested for the four percent increase in state funds to freeze tuition prices for Iowa’s public universities. The tuition freeze however is reserved only for resident undergraduate students. This will be the second year in a row that tuition has remained the same for in state undergraduates. But how much does it really help students? The freeze is selective of who in the university populous receive benefits. By allowing only Iowa residents to experience the legislative halt to increasing college costs. Other students, graduate and nonresident alike may feel excluded. What does that tell the other students? That they don’t matter as much as the locals? It’s not just about hurt feelings, either. It’s no secret that out of state tuition is much higher than in state, non-resident students could need some help easing the financial burden of tuition as well. One of the purposes of the freeze is to entice more student enrollment by providing an easier to predict financial situation, but instead of trying to appeal to all fronts legislators chose instead to reward a group that already has the lowest price of admission.

Even though undergraduates and resident students are a large majority of our population, 29 percent of ISU students pay the more expensive out-of-state tuition, which adds up to quite a bit of revenue. That said, freezing increases on college tuition may not exactly be beneficial to the universities either. Studies done by Paskill Stapleton & Lord which determine that guaranteeing a set tuition over four years didn’t impact numbers regarding enrollment and retention rate. Although pricing definitely plays a factor into the decision making process. The firm reported only some people included tuition freeze as the deciding factor when determining a school to go to. Even with the tuition freeze, the benefits given to resident undergraduates is small compared to the cost of tuition added on to the total ticket such as room, board and books. Saving a couple hundred dollars is nice, but it only makes a small dent in the total cost, especially when the tuition freeze isn’t guaranteed to continue in the future. Keep in mind that students aren’t paying the list price either. There are other factors like federal grants and tax deductions that takes the edge off of college tuition. Then there has to be the consideration of how the state is going to generate the revenue to keep pace with the 4 percent increase to ensure that students save a couple hundred dollars. The state will have to rely on taxpayers to pick up the slack of the $986 million education budget which covers statewide education from K-12 to college. Especially for the University of

Northern Iowa which needs an additional $2.6 million to maintain the tuition freeze with their high resident population. Relying on state appropriations to keep tuition down isn’t a realistic goal. Tuition is going to keep increasing in prices as it has been the last few years, and it’s only to cost the state more funds to maintain the current status quo. As the price of tuition is supposed to jump, the budget has to grow at an equal rate to match it. This year the Board of Regents budget reports that this year’s funds towards state universities will grow $12.1 million from last year’s budget, totaling $497.3 million. Iowa state is reserved $174 million in appropriations which is $4.4 million [2.6 percent] higher than last year’s budget. The report also notes that while resident students will experience a 0 percent increase in tuition, non residents undergraduate and graduate will experience a 2.35 percent increase and graduate students will experience 1.19 percent for resident graduates. Although the increase in budget as a whole isn’t strictly for the tuition freeze, portions of the increase undoubtedly are. That’s a sizable increase in overall budget which is coming out of the pockets of Iowa’s taxpayers. Improving our education would be a better bet in increasing enrollment rates and would be a benefit to all students not just the ones who were lucky enough to be in state. Stopping tuition cost rises may be a small relief for the next school year, but in the long run it really won’t do much for the undergraduates of Iowa State.

Letter to the Editor

GSB Supreme Court judged unfairly Cole Staudt, freshman in political science I am writing to respond to the editorial published in the Iowa State Daily on Friday. I would firstly like to support the actions of the Government of the Student Body Supreme Court justices. I believe that their actions were completely warranted and necessary. This semester, I attended more than a majority of the the GSB Senate Meetings. I sat in the gallery, appalled by what I was watching. I expected the meetings to be a great spectacle of students advocating for the interests of the entire Iowa State community. This was not the case. Not once did I hear the words, “My constituents believe...” Is a student government, is not any democratic

government there to serve the wishes of the people? I heard personal opinions and interests drown out the voice of the students. I was at the meeting when the Judicial Funding Bill first came to the Senate on February 26, 2014. The bill asked for a minimum of $500 with a cap of $1,000, less than the bill that was voted down just a few days ago. Two weeks after the bill’s introduction, March 12, 2014, I watched as certain senators ripped the intentions of the court, stating that they didn’t want the money to be spent on just anything. That statement was completely conflicting with what the bill actually stated. There were defined rules that dictated the spending of money from the account, including lines 6971 of Senate Bill 2013-3-093

Y, that stated that expenditures must be approved by the Finance Director and a GSB adviser. I mentioned this bill to show to all that the court was not only denied funding once, but twice. The duties of the GSB Supreme Court include protecting the students against the Senate. If the court must go to the Senate for every item they wished to spend money on, the Senate has a power over the court. By blocking the path to the court, the Senate has set itself up to be above students’ rights and opinions. To respond directly to the authors of the editorial, the former justices are not acting “childish” and do not need to “grow up.” In a democratic society, are citizens not allowed to stand up and protest in what they believe is wrong? Are we not all en-

titled to our beliefs and opinions? I feel that the authors are acting disrespectfully and [are] inconsiderate for their choice of words. These justices, work hard to make sure that students are protected against the GSB. They are some of the most responsible and hard-working members of the GSB. How can we expect these justices to stay when they are being controlled by the Senate? There are three separate branches for a reason, to keep the others in line. The Senate has set itself in a position to control the judicial branch, an action which is appalling and irresponsible. I have watched the GSB try to make substantial changes, but has failed to do so because of personal agendas. As a student, I am not only upset, but disappointed in the students we elect as “leaders.”

Iowa State Daily

Thammaraks leaves behind legacy, remembers teammates and coaches By Mike.Randleman @iowastatedaily.com When she first arrived to Ames four years ago, Prima Thammaraks’ first impression of Iowa was not too favorable. Right before she was set to arrive late in summer 2010, Ames received one of the biggest floods in city history, one that shut down much of the city and left Hilton Coliseum inundated with water. The dire conditions and change of climate left the Bangkok, Thailand native a little uncertain of what she was about to get herself into. “We landed in Cedar Rapids and me and my parents had never visited before, so I didn’t know if the school was just going to pop out of the corn fields or what,” Thammaraks said. “The first day was pretty much the worst day because after our 20-hour flight we couldn’t use the water because everything was shut down from the flood, it was just terrible.” Despite the uncertainties, Thammaraks stuck to her commitment to be a Cyclone. Now a senior, Thammaraks’ affinity for Iowa, along with her career as a golfer, has grown exponentially. “I can definitely say every day has gotten better since the first day,” Thammaraks said. Indeed it has. As a freshman, Thammaraks stepped in right away and contributed to a team that recorded the best finish in program history at the NCAA Regionals, a tie for 10th place. “She came in with her game at a very high level,” said ISU coach Christie Martens. “Because of that, she’s really been able to elevate the whole team.” Thammaraks finished 108th in the Golfweek/Sagarin individual rankings, her highest season-ending finish, and earned All-Big 12 Coaches Team honors. Now a four-year starter, the success did not stop there. With seven top-10 finishes, the second-lowest 54-hole total in program history and a projected second-best career scoring average, Thammaraks owns an assortment of Iowa State records and accomplishments. Though she came to Iowa State as a talented prospect, teammates and coaches credit her competitive desire as a key ingredient to her ascension in the college ranks. “Prima is a hard-working girl. When she wants something she really goes after it,” said teammate Cajsa Persson. Martens said Thammaraks’ competitiveness and demeanor on the course is what caught her eye during the recruitment process. “She’s really, really competitive. She wants to be great and I think she’s really driven by improvement and wanting to be the best,” Martens said. “She’s really self-motivated and just a fierce competitor.” Thammaraks will admit that she sometimes has to reign in her competitiveness, but without it she would not be the same player. Off the course, she brings the same passion from her golf game to the classroom. In three consecutive years Thammaraks earned All-Big 12 Academic honors as an art and design major. “She’ll leave a legacy striving for greatness; she’s an academic All-American in design,” Martens said. “When other people are getting C’s and D’s in these classes and saying they can’t get in [to programs], she’s getting A’s.” When looking back on her career, Thammaraks is proud of all the accolades, but what she will remember most is the memories with her teammates. Whether it was roasting marshmallows by the fire on Spring Break, team get-togethers on holidays or just at practice, she looks most favorably on the time with her teammates and the unique path each player took to arrive at Iowa State. “I think one of my favorite parts is when we share our different cultures. I think it’s cool how all the different cultures blend like Thai, all the European cultures with Sweden, Denmark, Belgium, Spain,” Thammaraks said. “Then how we all came together here in Iowa to form the

Prima Thammaraks, senior from Thailand, stands in the new Iowa State Golf Performance Facility south of campus. Thammaraks, who’s been on the women’s golf team for the past four years, leaves Iowa State with numerous records to her name.

Iowa State women’s golf team. It’s just kind of a miracle.” As Thammaraks prepares for her final postseason run, the reality has set in that her time as a Cyclone is coming to a close. For now, her sights are set on trying to lead her team to its first appearance at the NCAA Nationals, but her golf career will not end at Iowa State. She plans to follow her dream of playing in the LPGA by competing in the tour’s qualifying tournament series this summer, but the prospect of competing without her coaches and teammates will take some getting used to. “I tell coach everyday that I’m going to be so sad, I don’t know if I can do it because it’s going to be the same thing, but without my teammates or coaches,” Thammaraks said.

“Just thinking about it brought tears to my eyes, thinking, ‘Oh my gosh, how am I going to be able to do it?’ But it’s just another step in life you have to take.” Just as it will be a challenge to replace the experience Thammaraks has had at Iowa State, Martens will face an equally daunting challenge of replacing both Thammaraks and senior Sasikarn On-iam, two of Iowa State’s most decorated golfers. “It keeps me up every night. They’ve been a huge, huge impact on our program,” Martens said. “We’ve got some great players coming in next year, but they’re going to be really, really hard to replace. As golfers, as students they’ve done so much for the program.”

Baseball club awaits regionals invite, reflects on season By Kyle.Heim @iowastatedaily.com The ISU club baseball team has gone from playing hardball for the past two months to playing the waiting game. After finishing the season 8-4 in conference, the club is hoping this year will be the year they are invited to compete at regionals. The club was in the same position a year ago, but the difference for the team this year may have been its performance in spring ball. “Florida was big for us this year,” said junior Elliott Frey. “Last year, we went 0-6 and came away really disappointed. This year was a different story. Going down there and playing against ‘big time’ competition, and coming away 4-2 was a huge confidence booster heading into conference play.” The players said the team’s series against Iowa also had a big impact on its season. “A big moment was probably our first loss to Iowa,” said junior Dillan Dwyer. “The team responded great, and came back and won the second game of that double header.”

After graduating only one senior from last year, the team had high expectations entering this season. “I feel like the team has performed well,” Dwyer said. “If you ask the team, they would be disappointed in the season. We went into the season with the only goal going 12-0 in conference. The final results of the season in conference play were 8-4. This is by no means disastrous, but the high expectations of the team set in the beginning of the year weren’t met.” According to players, the pitching has played a key role in helping the team stay close in games throughout the season. “To be honest, our hitting has struggled at times this year,” Frey said. “[Our pitching staff] always brings their A-game, and that keeps us in games when we are struggling at the plate.” The team will find out next week whether or not their season will continue to regionals. “Waiting to find out about regionals absolutely sucks,” Frey said. “Last year, we all were taking finals, moving out of the dorms, apartments early and planning our departure. “I went to hit with one of my

RGR

teammates at Lied a couple of days before we thought we were leaving and as we left Lied we checked our phones and found out that we didn’t make it. That was really tough,” Frey said. “This year, we are in the exact same position and hoping for a better outcome.” Players said they feel like they were cheated by not being selected to play at regionals last season and feel like they have played well enough this year to make it to the postseason. “I believe we do deserve a spot,” said Club President Ethan Schroeder. “I feel we play in the toughest conference in the region, and not only have we proved ourselves as a top team in our conference, but we played well against a lot of top notch teams from across the states.” The team will lose six seniors after this season, including its club president. Frey will replace Schroeder next season. “[Frey] has a lot of ambition and has big plans for the future of the club,” Schroeder said. “He has a couple years under his belt already, and I think he’ll do a great job of keeping the club heading in the right direction.”

Iowa State softball bids farewell to five seniors Team remembers seniors’ season, looks for new talent By Ben.Paulus @iowastatedaily.com The ISU softball team has its fair share of youth on this season’s roster. A couple of freshmen, Rachel Hartman and Katie Johnson, have assimilated into their roles as everyday starters for Iowa State at catcher and pitcher respectively. Sophomores Brittany Gomez and Aly Cappaert have led the Cyclones in most offensive categories on the season. Gomez leads the way sporting a .405 batting average, and Cappaert has a team-high 10 home runs and 41 runs batted in. Among all this young talent, the Cyclones have a core group of seniors who have been equally important to this team’s success. With senior day against Big 12 foe Baylor fast approaching Sunday, the team has started to think about all that the seniors have

done for the program. “I think all of the seniors this season have been super important in a number of different ways,” said ISU coach Stacy Gemeinhardt-Cesler. “They are all really good leaders both on and off the field. They’re all very confident, but at the same time

they’re able to balance each other out.” Iowa State will graduate five seniors this season, including four who have served as everyday players this season. Starting second baseman Sara Davison and third baseman Sara Rice make up half of

the ISU infield. Outfielders Sarah Hawryluk and Liana Henry have also played a significant amount time for Iowa State this season. Senior Hally Lenzine, who has missed most of this season due to an injury, rounds out this season’s graduating class of five. The Cyclones have had a number of key contributors this season, with six players hitting above .330 on the season. Hawryluk leads all ISU seniors offensively with a .345 batting average from the second spot in the batting order. “One thing I’ve really enjoyed during my time at Iowa State has been all the fun that the girls have together,” Hawryluk said. “I’ve really been able to enjoy playing because of the balance between softball and life.” Davison has been a fixture for the Cyclones since her arrival in Ames in 2011. As a four-year starter at Iowa State, Davison has been equally valuable both on and off the field. She is the only senior to start every game this season. The second baseman is hitting a respectable .288 in 48 games on the season and registering a .971 fielding percentage on defense.

“I’ve really enjoyed playing alongside all of my Iowa State teammates,” Davison said. “I think that the team this year is the best and most complete team I’ve been on since I’ve been here.” Graduating alongside Davison and Hawryluk will be Rice. She is among the team leaders in runs batted in with 27 on the season. Iowa State will also need to find replacements for Henry, who started 28 games for the Cyclones, as well as Lenzine. “I think [in regards to leadership] it’s going to be very different on the field without these girls, and especially when there are five of them? Yeah it’s going to be hard,” said ISU shortstop Lexi Slater. “But I think we have a leader from every class who will hopefully step up in their absence.” Iowa State will take on Baylor in a three-game series Friday through Sunday and Drake on Tuesday for its final four home games. The Drake games will be the final games in Ames for the five senior players. The Cyclones will honor its seniors at 11 a.m. Sunday at the Cyclone Sports Complex against Baylor in the series finale.

Cyclone tennis looks forward to next year after Big 12 losses By Max.Dible @iowastatedaily.com

year with a record of 9-14. Despite a losing record and the disappointment after the team’s loss to Kansas in the first round of the Big 12 tournament, junior and No. 1 singles player Ksenia Pronina said she was more or less satisfied with the progress made over the last 12 months.

The ISU tennis team came bolting out of the gate in the 2013-14 season and raced to an 8-4 record before running into the Big 12 Conference, where Iowa State dropped nine of its final 10 meets to finish the

“There were some really good moments for the team,” Pronina said. “We had some really good wins, and of course there were a few disappointing matches like Drake, which we could have won.” The Cyclones were a relatively young team with Emma Waites serving as the only senior on the roster. Next season, the Cyclones will boast two seniors, Pronina and Meghan Cassens, who played at the No. 3 spot. Along with the return of Pronina and Cassens, sophomore and No. 4 singles player Ana Gasparovic will also be in an ISU uniform again next year. Three freshmen, Samantha Budai, Talisa Merchiers and Lydia Green, all saw significant court time for the Cyclones in this season, something ISU Coach Armando Espinosa said is encouraging as the Cyclones look ahead to the 2014-15 campaign. “A lot of development happens between the first and second year,” Espinosa said. “Hopefully after going through the first year, [the freshmen] see what the competition is like and then will be able to mold their games around that.” Espinosa added that the sophomores-to-be will have to be effective next season for Iowa State to improve on what Espinosa

described as a “decent year.” “The one and two spots [Pronina and Budai] are giving us a chance to win. Now we just have to do better at the bottom,” Espinosa said. “For us to compete in the Big 12, we have to make sure that we can compete and be successful at the lower spots.” The Cyclones will need to replace Green, as she is the only underclassman on the squad not planning to return next season. However, Green said, looking back at her time at Iowa State, that the entire year has served as a valuable learning experience for her, which should help her future performance wherever she lands. “What I learned most is that it is much more competitive than I imagined,” Green said. “It really came down to playing for your team rather than playing for yourself, which is different than what I have done in the past.” As for the Cyclones, who will remain in red and gold next year, the focus is now set on the future. “As a team we all hope that we can finally win a round in the Big 12, which would be a huge accomplishment as it has never been done before,” Pronina said. “And having a winning record [would be nice], too. Those are a few things I think about.”

Curtain opens for first original play By Liz.Cleaveland @iowastatedaily.com The time has come for ISU Theatre to wrap its 2013-14 season. “My Grandparents in the War,” written by director Matt Foss, is the first original play put on by the program. Two siblings return to Texas to visit their grandfather one last time. He shares his unforgettable memories from his time spent in the war, the love he had for his wife and the life they built. “Our hope is not to tell some autobiographical play that is an indulgent exploration of old memories, but hopefully has enough space for people who have lived something similar, going through something of the same to feel a little more known, a little less alone hopefully,” Foss said. ISU Theatre has performed numerous adaptations, but never an original script written by one of their own. For seniors in the program, this makes their last play even more memorable. Alyson Boes, senior in performing arts, is the assistant director for the play. “Not only is it personal to Matt, it has become personal to us all. We, as an ensemble, have adapted the script to fit what we believe to be ‘our play’ and it has become that much more dear to our hearts,” Boes said. Boes, who will be graduating this year, feels that her time as a member of ISU Theatre has allowed her to grow tremendously. “It means a lot to be a part of such a close-knit project and to be able to showcase all the hard work and talent that went into this show,” Boes said. The cast wants to do the show justice and stay as true to the story as possible. Although some names have been

changed, the show reflects several different time periods and their circumstances. “There is a danger in writing something personal, so I think they are the ones doing the extra work — keeping me honest, making sure the play is clear,” Foss said.

The final show of the season is always a bittersweet one, but for senior the finality of it hits home harder. “This is one of the most personal and emotional shows I have been a part of, and I’m really not ready to let go of that just yet,” Boes said.

The role of Rosie kind of spoke to me, and we get something that’s called a break down,” Sakolove said. “It kind of breaks down the types, the singing voice, the physical type, and a just kind of detailed description of the characters we’re auditioning for. So I got that break down and saw that Rosie was very like me.” Rosie is the friend of the main character’s mother, Donna. Rosie runs a feminine press and also writes cookbooks.

She fell in love with it and signed up for classes some time after she saw the show and began children’s theater at the age of 6. Sakolove also does voice impersonations, a skill she acquired in college while studying musical theater at The Boston Conservatory.
