SafeRide
DPS launches new app to revamp former safety escort service
By Alex.Connor @iowastatedaily.com
L
ooking for an Uber-style app that will provide you safe rides to a variety of locations on campus? For free? Search no further. The Department of Public Safety launched a new app Friday called SafeRide ISU, an updated variation of Iowa State’s former safety escort service. SafeRide ISU, which is available on both iPhone and Android, was created after Iowa State’s former escort service saw a higher demand in users, and is available to anyone on campus between the hours of 6 p.m. and 6 a.m. Anthony Greiter, community outreach officer for the ISU Police Department, said the new app and service will be available 365 days a year, a switch that was made informally a couple years ago. Greiter said the app is designed to streamline everything the service originally did, including choosing a driver best based on GPS coordinates and location. “It will pair rides together based on location to expedite the process so we no longer have to have six people waiting for rides,” Greiter said. Interim Police Chief Aaron Delashmutt first mentioned the app during a Board of Regents meeting in April, and said they
were in the process of requesting and evaluating proposals for the new application, the Cedar Rapids Gazette reported.At the time, he said he had hoped they could get the app running by the 2016-2017 school year. Greiter, along with others, worked to develop the app over the summer, and he said that even though the development of SafeRide was out-sourced, it was designed to be ISU specific. “[It was] not developed on campus,” Greiter said, “but developed with campus in mind.” As for the reason for the name change from safety escort to SafeRide, Greiter said SafeRide already exists on so many campuses and they wanted to move away from the old name with the addition of the app. “One of the amazing things about SafeRide is it’s accessible on any mobile, so we’ll have iPads in the vehicles that are used for SafeRide,” Greiter said. “[The vehicle] will run almost the exact same system that the rider gets to see.” Scott Lindley, community service officer, CSO, has been giving safety escorts for almost two years. Lindley believes that having SafeRide will make the escort service a lot easier for the user and the driver. “It actually shows the user where they can get SafeRide to and from,” Lindley said. “It lets the user know the SafeRide is
there and it also gives them a receipt so they can see what time they were picked up and what time they were dropped off.” SafeRide is run by the community services officers, Greiter said. They are student employees who are run through background checks and screenings, and are the ones who previously operated the safety escort system. The new app will also include features such as a honk button, an ability to request gas assists, vehicle jump starts and unlocks, along with GPS tracking. The honk feature, Lindley said, will allow the driver to notify the rider that they are outside the pick-up location. SafeRide is only available from one campus location to another campus location, including greek housing and university leased apartments. Lindley, junior in interdisciplinary studies, said the only negative about the app so far is that they weren’t able to get it to go live sooner, and they will have to wait to see if there are any bugs in the system. “Overall, it’s going to be great for the students and easier for our drivers,” Lindley said. Student Government President Cole Staudt agreed about the new SafeRide app. “I think it’s a really great service that we’re fortunate to have to help our students get home

Leath explains waived searches He attributes large number to research, hiring spouses By Alex.Hanson @iowastatedaily.com ISU President Steven Leath is attributing the large number of waived searches at the university to spousal hiring and the recruitment of highly talented research individuals. Leath has come under fire in recent weeks and the past year after several media reports of the school waiving searches for certain
individuals. The Cedar Rapids Gazette reported on Aug. 14 that Iowa State waived 140 searches, while the University of Iowa waived even more — 179. In comparison, the University of Northern Iowa waived just one. This promoted some to question if Leath, University of Iowa President Bruce Harreld and other key higher education figures such as Board of Regents President Bruce Rastetter were picking favorites or not allowing a wide range of candidates to apply for positions at the two larger schools. Leath, in an interview with Iowa State Daily editors last week, said Iowa State and Iowa are larger research institutions, meaning some searches for research-oriented

positions sometimes seek talented individuals with a specific skill set — something that may not be served better with a drawn-out open search. Leath offered the example of wanting to recruit someone from the National Academy of Med-
icine, Science or Engineering, which are “very difficult” to recruit, and said it makes more sense to waive the search and hire the person who is talented. “Unlike UNI, we’re a major re-

Phi Kappa Tau returns to Iowa State Fraternity targets new members By Dani.Gehr @iowastatedaily.com Phi Kappa Tau has returned to Iowa State to establish a new chapter after leaving in 1999 because of dwindling numbers. Phi Kappa Tau, a fraternity with 86 chapters around the country, is attempting to diversify this individual chapter, as well as the fraternity as a whole, by coming to Iowa State. Its main concern is to cater to the number of students not involved in a fraternity. “As an organization, we don’t want to be the same group of guys in the same area of the country,” said Darryl Thompson, a recruiter
for Phi Kappa Tau. “We ourselves want to grow as people. I think starting a new chapter in a new area definitely helps to diversify on a national level.” The fraternity is ready to cater to students who are still looking for their place in greek life, as well as those possibly carrying prejudices against greek organizations. It plans to break down stigmas and recruit students to Phi Kappa Tau. “We’re kind of looking for, the way we like to push it, the guys who may not have been ready to join but are ready to help build something,” said Logan Lukacs, associate director of organization growth for the fraternity. In order to attract students from all different backgrounds, Phi Kappa Tau is looking for recruits from all different organizations on campus. Whether
they come from an athletic background or are into extracurriculars, Phi Kappa Tau is interested in recruiting them. “We are also looking for the guys who haven’t gotten a chance to get involved yet, so maybe guys who have just been going here because it was one of the top schools on their list, they got in, and suddenly they didn’t plug into something that meant a whole lot to them,” Lukacs said. Along with working on diversifying the organization, Phi Kappa Tau also plans to add a few charitable foundations it has worked closely with for the past several years. By doing this, it hopes to create a new outlet for recruits to better the community while spending time with their closest friends. “That’s something that our new recruits really latch onto,”
Thompson said. “The opportunity to help not only in their community, but really help our national philanthropy.” Phi Kappa Tau has worked closely with SeriousFun Children’s Network and United Service Organizations in the past. Serious Fun Children’s Network was started by an alumnus, and the fraternity has worked with the organization for the past 16 years, partnering with USO in 2012. Phi Kappa Tau is taking the next seven or so weeks to meet with potential new recruits and make its first connections since leaving Iowa State. It hopes to have around 40 to 60 recruits by the first week of October. The fraternity does not currently have a house in Ames, but is focusing on getting more members first, and then hopes to get a house within the next couple years.
The first of three open forums to determine the Hispanic/Latino affairs project director began Monday in the Memorial Union. Much like the recent LGBTQA+ affairs project director open forums, the chosen candidates were tasked with answering a prompt related to advocacy and activism and how the terms are integrated into Iowa State. Elizabeth Mendez-Shannon, an assistant professor of social work at the Metropolitan State University in Denver, as well as an activist for issues related to undocumented immigration, spoke about the steps toward advocacy and social activism and touched on issues of diversity, specifically in Iowa. Shannon began by creating distinctions between advocacy and activism, using typical imagery that is associated with each word. “What I saw when I searched advocacy was that this term is always trying to serve a voice and lift a voice toward change,” Shannon said. “It may not be mine but I’m representing a voice. Activism is a different tone. I see protest as in ‘I’ve tried to speak within the system, but I’ve had enough.’” For Shannon, both serve as a strategy for change and building alliances. However, the processes are seen in different lights — activism being outside the system and advocacy working within a given system. This is in conjunction with the historical context of each, as advocacy often seeks more peaceful alternatives to possibly violent protests.

Ernst links vets, agriculture Senator touts former military members filling farmer demand By Travis.Charlson @iowastatedaily.com
Max Goldberg/Iowa State Daily
Sen. Joni Ernst speaks Monday about the benefits of jobs in agriculture for veterans and global food instability in the Sun Room of the Memorial Union. “A nation that can feed itself is unlikely to rise up and overthrow its government,” she said.
Forty percent of U.S. veterans are from rural areas. The average age of the American farmer is 60. Over the next 15 years, the demand for farmers will increase by 1 million. U.S. Sen. Joni Ernst, when she spelled out these statistics to a mixed crowd of civilians, veterans and military members in the ISU community on Monday, was alluding to solutions in what she says is an obvious link among the growing needs of agriculture and sustainability, the disproportionate amount of veterans returning to civilian life in rural areas and the difficult task it is for many veterans who serve to re-acclimate with civilian lifestyle. “Getting these veterans into agriculture is a natural fit,” Ernst said. And that is what the first-term senator, in collaboration with Iowa State and a host of others, has set out to do. Ernst was the keynote speaker during the “Common Ground: Creating Dialog and Action” conference, along with a group of elected and appointed officials who spoke on behalf of veterans, agriculture, entrepreneurship and the policies and efforts marked to cater to the collaboration among these institutions. “We want to make sure our veterans are receiving those benefits, and of course, the care they deserve,” Ernst said. Ernst dove into her personal
experiences, including her time spent studying agriculture abroad in Ukraine when it was part of the former Soviet Union to drive home the importance of food production and stability and its global impact. “The importance of food production to stability, as well as democracy, is no secret,” Ernst said. “A nation that can feed itself is not one that is likely to rise up and overthrow its own government.” And for a country such as the United States, those with the ability to help have the responsibility to help — there lies a sense of contributing to a greater good. Serving the greater good, Ernst said, is something farmers and those who enlist have in common — one feeds the world and the other’s goal is to protect it. Marketing these services and opportunities is now the primary focus, the discussion panel said. “If we, in Iowa, don’t reach out to the veterans that are leaving in retirement or before retirement, we’re never going to get that opportunity again,” said Major General Tim Orr, adjutant general of the Iowa National Guard. In addition to the speakers and discussions, the event also included a resource fair. Following the resource fair and the panel discussion, veterans were able to engage in workshops, discussion activities and learn about policies and programs available to them. “This is a great opportunity to bring together a lot of people to talk about veterans and agriculture,” said Cathann Kress, vice president for Extension and Outreach at Iowa State. Continued partnership, Kress said, is the vehicle that promises the continuation, availability and advocacy of veterans in agriculture and entrepreneurship.
Trump top candidate in state fair straw poll By Alex.Connor @iowastatedaily.com Iowa State fairgoers were provided the opportunity throughout the week to participate in an Iowa Secretary of State Paul Pate’s State Fair Straw Poll. Their findings? Republican nominee Donald Trump was the preferred presidential candidate in the national election, leading Democratic opponent Hillary Clinton by 11 percent at 48 percent. U.S. Senator Chuck Grassley, who is up for reelection come this November, also was the preferred candidate among fairgoers, leading in polls by 21 percent at 58 percent. Both Clinton and democrat Patty Judge were trailing at 37 percent.
OPEN FORUM p1 In order to break past barriers of change and progression, Shannon champions for more social activism, where conflict is approached head on, to examine why change may not be occurring. “How do we inspire students to be socially active? Originally it’s said that this is done through educating the students,” Shannon said. ”I disagree. In the system of academia, we are educating each other on a subject. Who are we to say what is the problem of a community or in a circle? Unless we are open to a voice, we will never know [the problem].” Supporting different communities, cultures and their specific needs is the process Shannon believes will help incite change. More specifically, having talks about difficult issues that plague individual groups.
The poll was conducted at the Secretary of State’s booth inside the Varied Industries Building, according to a news release by Pate’s office, and a total of 6,419 votes were cast. The Iowa State Fair website reported that this year, nearly 935,000 people were in attendance. According to a recent presidential poll compiled by the New York Times, the fair findings contrast national findings, which show Clinton currently polling at 43 percent, compared to Trump at 38 percent. In Iowa, one of the swing states in the presidential election, the same poll compiled by Times shows Clinton leading by 55 percent. The release stated that the State Fair Straw Poll is unscientific and done pure-
ly for entertainment purposes, and fairgoers were also given the opportunity to vote on Iowa-related, non-political questions. Some of these questions included, favorite fair attractions, favorite State Fair food, favorite State Fair musical acts and which Iowa celebrity had the best year. “I want to thank everyone who visited our booth and participated in the Straw Poll,” Secretary Pate said in the release. “The goal was to engage voters and get them interested in the election and voting, while also drawing them into our booth to register to vote, update their voter registration and learn about the other programs we offer. Pate said that during the fair they registered 212 voters and helped 151 people request absentee ballots.
“I can have all the passion in the world, but if I don’t know the extent of my impact on a community [or] issue, then I’m only doing half a job,” Shannon said. Speaking briefly on the issue of diversity in Iowa, Shannon mentioned the shift of immigrant populations moving away from major cities such as New York City to smaller Midwest towns. This is due to the large number of agricultural jobs available in the area, which Shannon says will have a large impact on school districts and universities across the region in terms of diversity issues. These issues mainly focus around the three biggest problems faced by new immigrants in the United States, which are lack of education, adequate health care and poverty. When asked how she would approach integrat-
ing conversations of inclusion into the classroom, Shannon responded with several possible changes toward university learning. “Being a teacher, I know the curriculum that is used,” Shannon said. “We can start by diversifying this curriculum to use more international sources instead of the same authors year after year. It’s also possible to move lectures in a circle format where students can converse with each other. They don’t like to feel as though they are being talked at.” Shannon hopes to be a resource of change for students and gain support from administration to involve staff in large-scale diversity training and resource fairs. Open forums for the Hispanic/Latino affairs project director will continue with Diana Sloan on Wednesday in the Memorial Union.

The Department of Public Safety on Friday launched an app called SafeRide ISU. The app is available to anyone on campus between 6 p.m. and 6 a.m.
SAFE RIDE p1 safe,” Staudt said. “And not only safe but a free ride home, which is really special.” Staudt was the first one to ever use the SafeRide ISU app on Friday, where he was picked up from his fraternity Beta Theta Pi and rode to the north side of the Memorial Union. During the time of the inaugural ride, it was pouring down rain in Ames, but because of the SafeRide, Staudt was able to get to the Memorial Union completely dry and safe. Greiter periscoped the first ride from the police’s Twitter account. “It was a nice ride in the back, and the community service officer inside was also very friendly and asked me about being in school and was excited to be out here all night,” Staudt said. While the SafeRide app is available for use during the evening and early morning, the HelpVan will still be available during the hours of 7:30 a.m. to 3 a.m. Monday through
Thursday, 7:30 a.m. to midnight on Fridays and 5 p.m. to midnight on Sundays. There are some restrictions to the SafeRide app, including riding while intoxicated. “They should call a cab,” Delashmutt told Inside Iowa State. “Better yet, they should plan ahead and have a designated driver.” And for the future of the app, Greiter said they are looking into other things that will benefit riders, including integrating the CyRide schedule. “CyRide is an amazing bus system that covers campus and the surrounding city really, really well,” Greiter said. “There’s a potential that we may be able to integrate bus schedules with SafeRide, so you can also see if there’s going to be a bus nearby when you log into SafeRide. “That’s still in the discussion phase.” But for now, the app plans on serving its due purpose, to provide safe rides to students, faculty,
staff and visitors to the ISU campus. “Demand for rides continues to grow,” Delashmutt told Inside Iowa State. “SafeRide should be more efficient and, more importantly, safer. It gets cars to people faster. And the app makes it easy for the university community to tap into a ride while freeing up dispatchers to handle other requests.” ISU President Steven Leath commented on the SafeRide app during an interview with the Iowa State Daily and lumped in the new service with initiatives Iowa State will be initiating or launching to create a safer environment. Leath said that along with adding another vehicle, the app will be like “the car service we’re all familiar with,” and will make it easier for students late at night, as well as be more convenient and user-friendly. Even with the app, users are still able to obtain an escort by calling 515294-4444.

Dissociative disorders add weight to often overbearing college stress By Erin.Gruba @iowastatedaily.com The weight of college stress can often feel overbearing, however, add a mental disorder to the list and it may feel as if you are being crushed. Some students may even suffer from dissociative disorders, which disrupt the normal integration of consciousness, memory, identity, emotion, perception, body representation, motor control and behavior. These symptoms can obstruct every area of psychological functioning, according to the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual and Mental Disorders. Dissociative amnesia is “characterized by an inability to recall autobiographical information,” according to the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual and Mental Disorders, and is essentially the inability to recall memories that normally could be remembered. Loreto Prieto, professor of psychology at Iowa State, said that dissociative disorder typically results from three main causes: brain injury, substance abuse or traumatic shock. “Dissociative has to do with kind of a splitting off, to break apart of dissociate from a core center or identity,” Prieto said. People with this disorder can even wander elsewhere without realizing it. “Somebody in a dissociative state might go somewhere — suddenly wake up in Las Vegas and wonder, ‘how the heck’ did I get here,” Prieto said. “More common, Prieto said, is where people experience dissociative states dur-
starting off with less.” A college student would then struggle with doing daily activities such as going to class, completing homework assignments and interacting with peers and professors. Another consequence of symptoms of depression and distress is failure to seek out social support. “Some people who are very much in that negative spiral say, ‘well, nobody wants to connect with me, nobody wants to put effort into having a relationship with me — I’m just going to socially isolate myself,’” Carrera said. This is harmful because it is most likely during a time where they need more connection and support. It is not uncommon for a student to then withdraw from social activities such as student organizations, group meetings and group projects. Carrera said they may also tend to keep their troubles to themselves to the point where it’s a secret. “Another effect that depression and anxiety can have is a sense of hopelessness,” Carrera said. This can lead to a student giving up and dropping out. Carrera said that a person with these symptoms tends to downplay their accomplishments and abilities, so bringing that back through compassion can be healing to them. “Sometimes we grow up feeling a sense of shame from our past experiences and we take that shame with us into a college setting,” Carrera said. “Through the empowerment, through the relational work, we can change and transform that change into self-kindness, into healthy anger, sometimes, into sadness.”
ing emotional trauma. For example, if a person experiences a car crash, the overload of sensory input can result in them having no recollection of the moments before and after the crash. “It’s like a deer in the headlights, you know, we get gripped because there is so much that we’re trying to deal with and we don’t always process it well and sometimes we need to choose not to,” Prieto said. People can also consciously choose to distance themselves from a particularly traumatic memory. Prieto said that people may resort to counting or sectioning off bricks of time, and these are just extensions of normal things done to make it easier for us to get through the monotony of something. According to the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual and Mental Disorders, the symptoms of dissociative amnesia can cause clinically significant distress or impairment in social, occupational or other significant areas of functioning. Symptoms such as depression and distress can have an immensely harsh impact on a college student. “Depression and anxiety are the most common reasons that students come in for counseling services,” said Stephanie Carrera, clinical graduate student in psychology. “If we’re thinking of kind of a deficit perspective, they’re already starting with less energy and less resources at the beginning of their day, so the different activities during the day take more effort for someone who has depression or anxiety because they’re already

Be civically engaged in community
Emily Blobaum/Iowa State Daily
Columnist Felker advises freshman students to wait until classes start to purchase textbooks they will actually need to use. Students will always have a leeway period of approximately one week when they’ll be fine without a textbook.
10 freshman mistakes we are all sure to make By Alex.Felker @iowastatedaily.com Starting your freshman year can be daunting. With so much to look forward to and so much preparation in the months leading up to your big move to campus, it’s easy to get stressed out about your new environment. While the last thing an incoming freshman should worry about is knowing everything, here are some of the biggest mistakes new students make and how to avoid them. 1. BRINGING WAY MORE STUFF THAN YOU ACTUALLY NEED. If you find yourself in desperate need of a 6-gallon rice cooker, framed map of Middle-Earth or 12-pack of lint rollers (oh, but it was such a good deal) — then hey — you can always make a purchase. But I wouldn’t bring them on moving day. 2. LOCKING YOURSELF OUT OF YOUR DORM ROOM. Everyone does it at least once. I have done it three times. And for six months, I lost my key in my wallet — though, to be fair, it was tucked away in a pocket I rarely frequent. Trust me — get a key chain. 3. BUYING ALL OF YOUR TEXTBOOKS BEFORE CLASS STARTS. Seriously, wait. Every professor wants something different. Some will even tell you that the “required” textbook is optional. Go to the class once and then act based upon whatever advice you’re given. There will always be a leeway period of about a week or so when you’ll be fine without a textbook. 4. GOING OUT TO EAT TOO MUCH. All of your friends are doing it — why shouldn’t you? The truth is that going out to eat costs a lot of money. Way too much money. Just eating out a few times a week will cost you hundreds of dollars in the long run. Use that meal plan while you can and prepare your own snacks. Cooking is a skill you’ll need once you graduate, so it’s best to start early.
5. PROFUSE NOTE-TAKING. We all know that person. Head down, furiously scratching away at their notebook while the professor endlessly drones on. What are they even writing down? It seems to you like there can’t possibly be that much information that needs to be recorded. But watch out. You could turn into this person if you aren’t careful. Remember: it’s better to use your ears and listen to what the professor is saying than mindlessly copy everything down. You can always ask questions later. 6. TAKING A LAPTOP TO A LECTURE. Do you want to burn 50 minutes of your life on Facebook while simultaneously get nothing out of a lecture? Easy — just bring your laptop to class. 7. FORGETTING TO SCHEDULE A LUNCH BREAK WHEN REGISTERING FOR CLASSES. You really need at least an hour to sit down and get something to eat. You’ll have a nice break in the day to have your lunch, do a bit of reflection, get outside for a bit and, more importantly, hastily finish that homework assignment you forgot about. 8. GOING CRAZY WITH THE SODA FOUNTAIN. Yes, all of the dining centers feature limitless soda fountains. And no, the machine will not judge your decisions. But self-control is necessary. Too much soda is probably the easiest way to pack on some extra pounds. Try to limit yourself to one a day. 9. GOING TO A FOOTBALL GAME WITHOUT SUNBLOCK. I learned this the hard way. Football games are longer than you realize, and all that time spent outside in the sun will quickly turn you red. 10. THINKING YOU WON’T MISS HOME. Yeah, college is awesome. But after a few weeks, you’ll realize that you miss home a bit. And this isn’t a bad thing. After another few weeks, you’ll realize that you’ve created a new kind of home for yourself in Ames — a new community, a new group of people to spend time with. And this is the whole point. Well, I suppose there’s that thing about getting a degree too.
Sanders will still influence 2016 election By Maddy.Beiwel @iowastatedaily.com The election is marching on. As November looms ever closer, America still wonders, debates and rages, trying to make what is considered by some to be an impossible choice. Donald Trump and Hillary Clinton both bring baggage, and each of their more vehement supporters are violently against entertaining the idea of the other candidate. This is understandable, as both are polarizing. Clinton, if elected, will be the first female president. Some people find fault with this and claim that a woman will not have the steady mind that is necessary to effectively lead a country. One particularly inflammatory sentiment that is sometimes heard is that during her period, she may wage war on other countries simply through her perceived inability to contain her own hormones. Clinton also has been plagued by controversy, from Benghazi, to the email scandal, to allegations that her husband, former President Bill Clinton, is a rapist. Donald Trump is similarly unpopular in many circles, due in large part to his brashness. He has made inflammatory comments about minorities and women. He has an odd, angry fascination with Rosie O’Donnell that he seems to delight in referencing. He is objectively unqualified, and the idea of him running at all frightens many people. But these arguments have been reiterated
Katy Klopfenstein/Iowa State Daily
Bernie Sanders attracted a large following of young supporters who are now struggling to back a new candidate.
so often that to do so again is belaboring the point. This election is an odd and divisive one, no argument. And one voice that was once so loud and new is now all but ignored. Bernie Sanders started out his campaign, to the bewilderment of many, as a proponent of democratic socialism, a term foreign to many Americans. He gained a following, particularly among the youth of America, largely because of his promises of real change. He dropped eventually, and the Democratic National Committee nominated Clinton, as many expected from the beginning. Sanders’ ideas were radical, and as it turned out, not enough people favored him. He cast his vote for Clinton, hoping, I assume, that those who followed him so loyally would do the same for Clinton. This did not happen in every case. There are supporters, often known as members of the Bernie or Bust crowd, who have opted for bust, vowing to vote neither for Clinton nor Trump. However, Sanders has gone on an odd new path after losing the nomination of his
party. News organizations, once so enamored with his ideas and ready to jump on any comment, are now more interested in the house he bought. His ideas are still relevant and can be incorporated into the remaining campaigns. Either side could garner the followers who once clung to Sanders and use his ideas to bolster their own side. It has been somewhat surprising to see that this has not occurred. What Sanders did and said perhaps weren’t revolutionary, but the reaction to these things and the response have been. Things don’t stop mattering just because they come to an end. Even if one does not agree with his ideas, and actively dislikes them, the thought of such an outsider gaining such traction has to be encouraging. Perhaps, on the other side of the coin, this is why Trump has succeeded so well. He is, to some eyes, an outsider of his own class, a novice in the political world who makes grand promises that seem unattainable. Either way, such a new phenomenon should not be brushed away.
Imagine if we lived in a world where people only cared about themselves. There would be no organizations to be a part of, no volunteering efforts, no political systems, no communities. While we all have our own interests, life goals and hobbies, all Cyclones share one common factor: we’re part of the ISU community. Being a part of this community is not something you should take for granted. You should take what this community has to offer, which is a plethora of diverse experiences, but you should also give back to the community by being civically engaged. If you Google civic engagement, a message pops up defining civic engagement as “the ways in which citizens participate in the life of a community in order to improve conditions for others or to help shape the community’s future.” It’s the ISD Editorial Board’s hope that you’ll fully embrace this duty and be, or continue to be, an active member of the community in whatever capacity you are able with whatever talents you bring to the table. Being civically engaged can come in many forms. We encourage students, faculty and staff to find their own way of giving back to the community. Be involved in the political process. While the atmosphere surrounding the Presidential election has captured the attention of most of the country, for good reason, it’s important that we all remember local elections and the legislature, too. Keep up with Student Government, the City of Ames and the State of Iowa’s initiatives. Oftentimes, these officials are the ones making decisions that affect our daily lives more than national officials. Offer feedback when you can, know the issues at hand and get out and vote. Stay informed. Through the Daily, not only can you learn about Student Government, events on campus, athletics, key issues, health, entertainment and so many more ISU topics, but you also can get this information in many different forms. The Daily offers a daily newspaper available on stands around campus, 24/7 online content, social media content and app content — all of which are free to students. Let us know what you want to know more about and provide us with feedback so we can continue to serve you well. Be a part of the conversation. Issues on campus are everyone’s issues. While you might not be personally affected by racial oppression or sexual assault, or even know someone who has been, it doesn’t mean the issue doesn’t impact you. A society where each person is valued, and treated fairly, is one that’s better for all of us. Join a club. There are more than 850 student organizations that students can be a part of to make their mark at Iowa State. Being involved in a club allows you a chance to pursue your own interests while also helping better some particular niche of campus life. Take a step further and lead the organization, implementing new ways to further the organization’s reach in the community. Volunteer. We’re all busy. You might not have time to volunteer every day or even every week, but find a cause that’s important to you and a way to support it. Spend some time volunteering or donate supplies that you don’t use anymore. We challenge all of you to find at least one way to be an active member of the Iowa State community. It’s our responsibility to support the community so that everyone today and in the future can be a part of a great ISU family. Each of us can give something to the community and we’ll think you’ll find that by giving back, you’re also receiving something.

ISU volleyball learning how to use depth By Ben.Visser @iowastatedaily.com There is no starting lineup set for the ISU volleyball team, and it might take a few games into the season to get one set in stone. The Cyclones have a glut of quality players at each position — from outside hitter to libero — so coach Christy Johnson-Lynch will have her work cut out for her. “As I told the team, we haven’t made any decisions yet,” Johnson-Lynch said. “For me, it’s early. I’d like to have some patience and let some things play themselves out. We don’t have a starting lineup yet, really in any spot. “There’s stiff competition in each of [the positions]. I think that’s a good and bad
problem to have.” Last season, it was a bad problem to have at times because Johnson-Lynch wanted to have the right combinations of players on the court. But when a team has a lot of depth, it makes that decision harder. And it’s not like JohnsonLynch did herself any favors this year, bringing in Evansville transfer Genesis Miranda and freshmen Anna Kiel and Sami Hillmer. The 6-foot-1 Miranda set an Evansville school record for kills last season with 493. The outside hitter also led the team in aces with 40 and was third on the team in digs with 279. “Honestly, I hadn’t seen a whole lot of her,” JohnsonLynch said. “I did not know if she’d be in the mix when she came in, but she’s been having such a great preseason so far. She’s put her-
self in position to compete for a spot.” Kiel was named the 2016 Des Moines Register High School Female Athlete of the Year. In her senior season at Unity Christian High School in Orange City, Iowa, Kiel recorded 445 kills at an exceptional .448 hitting percentage. Johnson-Lynch said Kiel is statistically right in the mix with all of the other outside hitters during practice. “[Kiel’s] aggressive,” said junior Alexis Conaway. “She’s great at taking a hard, high swing and putting the ball down.” Conaway is part of a group of nine sophomores and juniors with experience that helps make practices run smoother and allow player to communication easier. The most experienced player on the team is redshirt senior Morgan Kuhrt.
Kuhrt, an outside hitter, is a naturally shy person, but she’s seen herself become more of a leader every year she’s been on the court. Last season, Kuhrt filled in for the injured Mackenzie Bigbee, but she gave the team more than it bargained for. She became one of the Cyclones’ top players and was named to the First Team All-Big 12. And prior to this season, she was named to the Preseason All-Big 12 Team. “This year I feel comfortable [helping people out] and answering their questions and being there because I have been here. This is my fifth year,” Kuhrt said. Johnson-Lynch and the Cyclones will get their first shot at testing their depth against Wichita State on Friday at Hilton Coliseum.
QB Kempt finds home
Lard not enrolled in classes
Third-stringer settles into learning role in Ames
By Luke.Manderfeld @iowastatedaily.com
By Brain.Mozey @iowastatedaily.com Name a state in the United States and Kyle Kempt has probably been there. Kempt, a 6-foot-5 quarterback, has traveled around the nation, but he’s finally found a home at Iowa State with the football program. “I’m glad to be back in the Midwest again and at a school I’m comfortable,” Kempt said. “I’m just hoping I can continue to learn to help my team win on Saturdays.” Kempt was born in the state of Washington. After two years, his family made the first move to Hawaii and lived there for four years before moving again. His family stayed on the West Coast by moving to Oregon, where Kempt spent most of his elementary and middle school years. After nine years in the state, the Kempt family moved to Ohio for Kempt’s last three years of high school. During those three years, Kempt received phone calls from colleges trying to convince him to join their university. During his senior year, he verbally committed to Cincinnati, but later decided to commit to Oregon State. The ability to live near Oregon State as a child made it easy for him to make his final decision. Two years went by at Oregon State, and his offensive coordinator left for Nebraska. The new coach who came to Oregon State had a different offensive scheme that Kempt didn’t enjoy, so he decided to transfer to a junior college school in Kansas. He said he enjoyed being in the Midwest again, but he still wanted to move from the community college.

Redshirt junior quarterback Kyle Kempt throws the football at the spring football game on Apr. 16 at Jack Trice Stadium.
During his time in high school, Kempt developed a relationship with coach Matt Campbell when Campbell was at Toledo. “I went down there for their [Toledo’s] last game against Western Michigan,” Kempt said. “I was there on a Friday and he accepted the coaching position at Iowa State on Saturday.” Kempt knew he was either going to Toledo or following Campbell to Iowa State. In his eyes, he made the right decision to become a Cyclone and learn from Campbell’s mindset. Kempt had a full scholarship at Oregon State that paid for his education, but is playing as a
walk-on at Iowa State this fall. “I’m fortunate enough to have a family that can support and pay for my college, which I appreciate all the time at Iowa State,” Kempt said. “It’s a humbling experience to be playing as a walk-on and especially as a Cyclone.” Kempt said he is learning from other quarterbacks such as starter Joel Lanning or backup Jacob Park. “I’ve been learning every day since I’ve stepped foot into the Iowa State football program,” Kempt said. “This is a family and I’m looking forward to the upcoming season.”
Incoming men’s basketball freshman Cameron Lard hasn’t enrolled in classes for the fall semester, according to the Office of University Relations. Monday is the first day of classes at Iowa State. Lard, a 6-foot-9 forward, committed to Iowa State in November. Lard wasn’t enrolled in summer classes at Iowa State because he was finishing high school classes. An ISU men’s basketball spokesperson had no update on Lard as of Monday afternoon. A New Orleans product, Lard attended Natchitoches Central High School in Natchitoches, Louisiana, averaging 16 points and 10 rebounds in his junior season. He transferred to LandryWalker High School before his senior season but was ruled ineligible by the Louisiana high school governing body. He ended up playing at Pro Vision Academy in Houston, Texas, for his senior season, where he put up 16 points, nine rebounds and two blocks in seven games.

Ditch the smacking when snacking during class By Maggie.Curry @iowastatedaily.com Your 8 a.m. feels like hours ago, and you didn’t really get breakfast — but you still have another few hours until you can stop anywhere for lunch. You need something quick and quiet to eat in class — something that won’t make a mess and won’t have your classmates thinking of you as “noisy chip eater” in their head all semester. There are many ways to bother your classmates — smell, noise, even allergies are all things to consider. If you’re going to eat a snack with nuts or peanut butter, consider bringing along disinfectant wipes as a courtesy to the person after you. We’ve pulled together some snacks to keep your brain going and your neighbors happy. Dried fruit Healthy, mess-free and it saves space compared to the non-dried versions.

Doesn’t mean we don’t enjoy goldfish, raisins, M&Ms, teddy grahams and pretzel sticks mixed together in a bag. While some of the snacks are a little crunchy, they’re nut free and smaller mouthfuls won’t bother your neighbors. Cheese sticks or Yogurt Cheese sticks open quietly, can be bitten or torn into strips, and can be picked up in cafés or food courts around campus. Yogurt requires a spoon but is still quiet, relatively mess free and granola can be added for more substance. Both snacks are filling and healthy ways to get your daily dairy intake.

search institution,” Leath said. He also said the number of hires is small compared to the total number of searches that have taken place at the school since he has been president. “We’ve hired over 4,000 people, so the [open search] numbers are small,” Leath said. About 40 percent of the exceptions were spousal hires, and unlike some other schools, we have a really aggressive, rigorous spousal hiring program.” Leath said the high-quality talent that is recruited from Iowa State is only possible if the individual’s spouse is hired along with them. Iowa State’s hiring policy says positions must be filled “through a process that includes announcement of the opening as widely as appropriate in terms of the level of duties and responsibilities of the position.” The policy was created to allow diverse hires, equal opportunity and a large pool of candidates.
Two hires in specific have drawn attention. First, former Iowa House Speaker Kraig Paulsen, a Republican from Hiawatha, was hired without an advertised search for a new supply chain initiative job inside the College of Business. Before Paulsen left the state legislature, he was working part time at Iowa State and is now in a fulltime role. At the time of his hire, he was set to make $135,000 a year and be classified as a a professional and scientific employee, The Gazette reported. Iowa State defended the hire, which took place shortly after Paulsen said he would step down as speaker and leave the legislature, because his availability opened up a unique opportunity for the school. It also cited his relationships “with corporate and government partners, both locally and nationally.” Jim Kurtenbach, now the chief information officer at Iowa State, served in an interim role from January

Kurtenbach, also a former Republican legislator, has worked at Iowa State since 1991 — first as an associate professor and later as dean of the College of Engineering from January 2010 until January 2013. Iowa State also did not advertise or conduct a search for the IT role he now serves in before naming him chief information officer. Kurtenbach will make $252,794 a year in the role and is overseeing a large IT project that would implement a new enterprise resource planning system. Kurtenbach is now lead-
ing a restructure of the IT department, which included laying off 23 IT employees this summer. That incident also faced harsh reaction because of a report published by The Gazette. Iowa State told at least 19 of the employees being laid off that they should either stay home or come to campus and sit in a room, which some dubbed “Gitmo Iowa State.” Employee contacts restricted Iowa State from laying off the employees. While some lawmakers have questioned the open searches, policies from both schools allow for searches to be waived in special circumstances.
