Sexual misconduct policies confusing for administrators By Makayla.Tendall @iowastatedaily.com State and federal sexual misconduct laws are confusing for universities, too, said administrators at the first ever Board of Regents campus safety and security subcommittee meeting Monday. The subcommittee met
at the Iowa State Alumni Center on Monday with representatives from the University of Northern Iowa, University of Iowa, Iowa State and Iowa School for the Deaf. While attendees spoke about differing policies and safety services each university offered, much of the conversation centered on sexual misconduct. Georgina Dodge, the
University of Iowa’s chief diversity officer, said she had heard discussion on possibly conflicting policies between Title IX and the Clery Act. Title IX is the legislation that prohibits discrimination on the basis of sex in education institutions receiving federal financial support. The Clery Act is the act requires public colleges and universities to
disclose their crime statistics and safety policies each year in a safety report. Dodge summarized Title IX into three requirements: Prompt and effective action by the university to stop harassment, remedy the effects and prevent recurrence of harassment. Dodge said those policies do not conflict with each other, but the require-
ments may contradict what is best for students. Dodge said though the Title IX policy is requiring universities to empower sexual assault or harassment survivors, a university may also have to investigate an incident without the consent of a survivor. “It’s relying on us to move quickly to ensure survivors have a voice in what
happens and whether or not their case proceeds through what we deem to be appropriate channels. The OCR also indicated in cases there’s a threat of further harm, the institution has to proceed with an investigation even if a victim does not wish that to happen,” Dodge said.

Poet Joseph Capehart delivers a speech about aspects of his life during a Move event Monday evening outside the Campanile. MOVE, a campus version of Ted Talks, aims at encouraging students to talk about important issues with motivational speeches, similar to the online videos.
A MOVE to motivate By Hannah.Postlethwait @iowastatedaily.com
A
s Monday night grew dark, a string of yellow Christmas lights lit up the Campanile. About 50 students were gathered in the grass, some with blankets, to hear the speakers of the second ever MOVE Night. The night began with words from Joseph Capehart, a national spoken word artist. Capehart spoke to the students in a series of poems that covered both serious and uplifting topics, like domestic violence or the responsibility that comes with being a brother. The main speaker was Caleb Ellingson, a senior in philosophy at the University of Northwestern in St. Paul, Minn. He made a case from the perspective of evolutionary biology that human beings should care for each other. Ellingson believes college students have a unique opportunity to be in a community with one another. He came to Iowa State because he believes in MOVE and ideas that are worth spreading. “What interests me about MOVE is that it’s open enough that no matter where you come from, no matter what world view, what disposition you have, you can

Reyes is now The Buena Vista Tack covered by the Deferred
Action for Childhood Arrivals (DACA), a policy created in 2012 allowing certain undocumented people protection from deportation if they came to the United States as children. Recipients of DACA are often referred to as “DREAMers.” Reyes served as the youngest member of a citizen panel at Buena Vista University at the #Unit-
eIowa Forum on Immigration, Saturday, August 29. The goal of the panel was to offer varying political and social perspectives on the issue of immigration, but also to engage in a civil conversation, a characteristic sorely lacking on the national political scene, according to forum organizer, Des Moines Register columnist, Kyle Munson.
It was Reyes’s DREAMer status and activism on immigration that made her addition to the conversation a natural choice. “We felt as ‘Iowan’ as any other kid,” Reyes said. With childhood memories including the Iowa State Fair and the traditional rivalry of ‘Hawkeyes vs. Cyclones,’ Reyes spent her whole life living in Iowa.
But as she grew older, her sense of security in New Hampton began to shift as she and others in the immigrant community began witnessing what they perceived to be police discrimination. Upset by this, Reyes then partnered with her then 17-year-old sister, Nilvia, to raise awareness-

An individual reported the
tween helping students and following federal and state laws. Stewart said he could remember a time when the Department of Education did not know how to guide universities through the gray area. Stewart said the legislation is continuously changing, leading universities to have to change policy continuously. The change it geographical locations where campus safety officials must report crime statistics changes, making it difficult for them to obtain information, especially if the location is across the state or nation, Stewart said. Stout said students are confused, but she does universities face a difficult task. “It’s a very difficult process for the schools. They really are in a tight bind because they have to be in compliance with the federal laws but there are also state laws they have to be in compliance with as well. Of course they want to do right, but they also have to do right by the responding students,” Stout said. The key, she said, is involving survivors who went through the process in the conversation on policy change to see what did or did not work.
Mitchell Schatz, 18, of 725 Willow Hall, Ames, was cited for possession of drug paraphernalia at Lot 63 (reported at 8:02 p.m.).

The Clery Act also requires campus security authorities to report all sexual assaults that occur within “Clery geography,” university-owned property whether on campus, offcampus, even if it is across the state. Dodge said these policies make it hard to empower students because they also are required to meet federal policies, in addition to state policies. “You want people to come forward and the way you get them to come forward is to make sure their situation is going to be held in confidence,” Dodge said. “There are those who say we must have laws because that’s the only way we’re going to report this so everyone must be a mandatory reporter.” Faculty and staff at all three universities are mandatory reporters of sexual assault or misconduct. Universities are also required to share with the complainant, or person who has a report filed against them, that they are involved in an investigation. This requirement means survivors who report can risk retalia-
tion by a complainant. Rebecca Stout, legal services director of the Iowa Coalition Against Sexual Assault, attended the meeting and said fear of retaliation is the most common issue with which students are concerned. Stout said in all of the students’ cases she has helped with, each student has experienced retaliation whether it be threats from complainants or complainants’ friends to being followed and harassed by a complainant. Stout said students do not understand the process, making it daunting to endure. “Most of them [students] get caught up in ‘how many different departments do I have to talk to? Who do I make my report to? Who is going to contact me next?’ Stout said. “Sometimes they’ll get different information from different departments, and it very much can feel like that’s slowing down the process because they feel like there isn’t a central point of contact.” Jerry Stewart, director of public safety at Iowa State, said the ISU Police Department has also had to sift through policies to find the middle ground be-

Monica Reyes, an undocumented immigrant from Mexico, participated in the #UniteIowa forum on immigration on Saturday, August 29 at Buena Vista University in Storm Lake, Iowa.
IMMIGRATION, p1 against immigration stereotypes. Reaching out to immigrants in the community, the duo compiled testimonies from citizens and began to communicate with groups including the American Civil Liberties Union (ACLU), as well as the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People (NAACP). Later, the two would make their way to Des Moines, Iowa, meeting with representatives from ACLU to discuss the issues facing New Hampton, problems so many other communities across Iowa were grappling with. The duo were pleased with their outreach efforts, which only enhanced their passion for outreach and advocacy. For some, however, the act of reaching out isn’t so simple. This was the driving force behind the Reyes’ formation of DREAM Iowa. DREAM Iowa is an organization advocating for the rights of undocumented youth and supporting comprehensive immigration reform, with one ultimate goal in mind: “Putting a face on the issue of immigration
– not about politics, not about numbers – but putting a face on immigration,” Reyes said. The Reyes sisters are not the only ones who have experienced the emotional effects of being labeled as immigrants. Susan Cruz and Gabriela Davila, Iowa State University students, have both watched loved ones struggle to get the same opportunities that they’ve received in higher education. “Seeing others so brilliant, so bright, and so close to you limit themselves is exhausting, which is why I take my education with a lot of dedication and passion,” Cruz said, referencing her sister, a DREAMer who struggled to get accepted into anything more than a two-year college. DACA has changed their perspectives on life as they reflect on a time when they were younger and afraid to say anything, for fear that their parents would be deported. Part of DREAM Iowa’s mission is to help combat these fears and limitations that some immigrants encounter. While the youth have received some reprieve in the form of DACA, that is only a small
victory in the fight they will continue to battle in order to gain that same relief for their parents, other family members, and communities. “We don’t want to settle for DACA; we want to keep fighting. Fighting for our parents, fighting for our families, fighting for the future of America. It gives us more strength to keep being that voice to the undocumented and to the voiceless,” Davila said. Because of Reyes’ dedicated work on this topic in recent years, it was important for Munson to allow Reyes’s voice to come through in a conversation in which she isn’t always able to take part. “Rural America might not be a border city or a border state, but it has a lot to say in this conversation,” Munson said. Every DREAMer has a story. Still, so many words have yet to be said, and the fight remains. “I can contribute so much to this country and I want to help it and make it better,” Reyes said. “We want to recognize people and bring them out of the shadows.”

IOWA STATE DAILY
Democratic presidential candidate Hillary Clinton is greeted by Sen. Tom Harkin at the 37th annual Harkin Steak Fry in Indianola, Iowa, on Sept. 14, 2014. Harkin has endorsed Clinton during her 2016 campaign.
Iowa State Daily
Harkin endorses Clinton’s education plan By Alex.Hanson @iowastatedaily.com During one of her most recent trips to Iowa, Democratic presidential candidate Hillary Clinton unveiled her plan on education, specifically what she would do to make sure cost is not a barrier to higher education and a plan to address high levels of student debt after college. Dubbed “Hillary Clinton’s New College Compact,” her campaign says it has two goals — “Costs won’t be a barrier” and “Debt won’t hold you back.” Former Iowa Sen. Tom Harkin has endorsed the plan, along with numerous other state officials.
“We have seen over the years that the cost of college just keeps going up, but the incomes of everyday Iowans are not keeping up,” Harkin said. “I think there is a broad consensus that even crosses partisan lines, that a college education is one of the best ways to get a good paying job, to increase their economic security and provide for prosperity for Americans.” At the center of her plan is the idea that students should not have to borrow money to pay for tuition, books or fees, but families will still have to make contributions that the campaign calls “realistic.” This is in contrast to Vermont Sen. Bernie Sanders, one of Clin-
ton’s challengers, who calls for 100 percent subsidized education. “Today the cost of attending college in Iowa is about $18,900 per year at the largest public college in the state,” Harkin said. “For our students attending four-year public colleges, the average debt will be between $23,200 and $29,900. The campaign says Clinton’s plan will require states to maintain current funding levels for education, but must “reinvest” over time. Clinton says colleges must improve outcomes and control costs to make sure tuition is affordable and students can graduate. Harkin said through a
combination of those reinvestments and college cost controls, a family in Iowa making $50,000 a year could save about $25,700 over four years of college and the life of their loans. “These reductions would have a real impact on families in Iowa and would put us closer to putting college in reach for more Iowans,” Harkin said. One more goal the campaign says will help control cost is to encourage “innovators” to design new ways to provide education and crack down on abusive practices that burden students with debt, but don’t provide them with quality education. During a conference
call with reporters last week, Trent Seubert, senior at the University of Iowa, said he and other students in Iowa are increasingly worried about the burden of college debt and how they will pay for it after they graduate. “When I graduate, I know a large amount of my monthly paycheck will be going toward servicing my debt and trying to pay that off,” he said. “[Clinton’s plan] would make a real difference for students like me.” For those still owing debts on loans, Clinton wants to allow students to refinance old loans at current rates. The campaign estimates this could save most students about $2,000.
Future undergraduates would have interest rates cut significantly lower than current levels under Clinton’s plan. Clinton also wants those with debt to be able to enroll in plans that allow them to contribute no more than 10 percent of their income toward paying off loans. “Levels of student debt in Iowa are deeply concerning and completely unsustainable,” said Iowa Treasurer Michael Fitzgerald. “Hillary Clinton’s plan to reduce rates through refinancing, simplify incomebased repayment, and crack down on predatory lenders, will make important strides for our students.
Santorum first candidate to do ‘full Grassley’ By Michael.Murrell @iowastatedaily.com Former Pennsylvania Sen. and Republican presidential candidate Rick Santorum will be the first candidate to visit all 99 Iowa counties — a feat he was able to pull off in 2012 that may have catapulted him to victory in the 2012 Iowa Caucus. Santorum will officially visit his 99th county and complete his second “full Grassley” on Tuesday night during a town hall meeting in Rock Rapids. A “full Grassley” was coined after longtime Iowa Sen. Chuck Grassley would visit every Iowa county each year. Iowa Gov. Terry Branstad and Lt. Gov. Kim Reynolds try to visit all counties every year, and Iowa U.S. Sen. Joni Ernst has said she will visit every county. Santorum is in the midst of his second straight run for president after announcing his intention to run in May. He is running on a similar platform he ran on four years ago, again targeting evangelical voters. Although he may have narrowly won the caucus in 2012, Steffen Schmidt, professor of political science, does not think Santorum’s strategy is going to pay off in 2016. “This time I don’t think it is going to work,” Schmidt said. “The reason is because there are too many people running, and they are all getting percentages of those [religious] voters to commit to them.” Currently, Santorum is polling at about 1 percent, or near the bottom of the crowded Republican field, according to the latest Iowa poll released this past weekend by The Des Moines Register and Bloomberg Politics. Mack Shelley, professor of political science, said one of the reasons Santorum’s numbers are struggling compared to four years ago is the emergence

of Donald Trump. “It probably is related in part to Trump because Trump as they say is taking a lot of air out of the room,” Shelley said. “Not much space for anybody else.” Even while Santorum is pulling off the entire 99-county haul, Shelley said not to expect the same results Grassley has received in the past. “When Grassley does it it’s just sort of reinforcing the fact that here I am, I may be a U.S. senator, but I’m one of you, so vote for me,” Shelley said. “Santorum is not in that position because he is not an Iowan to begin with and so he doesn’t honestly have roots here.” Matthew Beynon, a spokesperson for Santorum, disagrees, saying they expect to do well in February at the caucuses.
Korrie Bysted/Iowa State Daily
Santorum meets with people at Quirks Bar and Grill in Nevada, Iowa, on May 17. Santorum is running an identical campaign to the one he ran in 2012, when he won the Iowa Caucus, by targeting evangelical voters.
“The senator has always believed that every vote counts and every voter counts,” Beynon said. “Voters aren’t just in Des Moines and there not just in Ames and there not just in Cedar Rapids and there not just in Dubuque. They’re also in Anamosa and they’re in Oskaloosa and they’re in Red Oak and they’re in Rock Rapids. They deserve to hear from candidates too.”

By Josh.Newell @iowastatedaily.com This year’s first meeting of the Graduate and Professional Student Senate started with a technological hiccup, but recovered quickly. The first assembly of GPSS began with an oldfashioned roll call because the clickers that were handed out at the beginning of the meeting refused to work. After the calling of a quorum, the meeting began. The first item on the table was a presentation by Inclusion Workshops, led by Craig Ogilvie, the Graduate College assistant dean. Ogilvie explained that the workshop’s purpose is to improve the climate for graduate school programs around the university. The program grew from professional groups that are currently traveling the country visiting other universities. “We decided we’d try in on a low-key scale,� Ogilvie said. The program involves
small groups of students in a workshop environment to help them learn and work on how to deal with discrimination and harassment within their departments. “Our early survey data shows that 30 percent of our grad students experience some form of discrimination,� Ogilvie said. The first part of the workshop involves students acting out of script in front of a small audience of graduate students. The scripts are based on real-life scenarios that have occurred within different colleges at Iowa State. While the details have been changed to protect former and current students’ identities, the scripts still deal with everyday problems and harassment faced by ISU graduate students. During the meeting, four graduate students ran through an abbreviated version of the workshop, which contained a scenario involving a student being ridiculed for her grants being awarded because of her minority status.

Along with the changes, the constitution’s wording was also changed regarding the rules about the appointment of various officers and an addition of a new standing committee, called the Social Committee. The new committee will be in charge of social media for the GPSS. The changes to the constitution were ratified unanimously after the second vote. Zenko closed with a short speech thanking the senators for a spirited and involved debate on the ratifying of the constitution. After the meeting, Zenko expressed hopefulness at the coming semester. “I think the Senate has been expanding its duties and offerings in the past few years,� Zenko said.

Columnist Snyder argues that the government can reduce the cost of higher education for students by reallocating its funds or placing a “speculation tax” on Wall Street and asking industries that were bailed out to pay up on the investment.
Free tuition is a necessity Students in need of a plan that discourages costly education By Stephen.Snyder @iowastatedaily.com
T
he impending 2016 presidential election ensures that several social and economic issues will come to the forefront as candidates vie for position. Those issues include immigration, health care, foreign policy as it relates to military force and most importantly for a majority of people reading this column, free college tuition for public universities and the reduction of student debt. Columnist Beth Woodruff asserted her belief Thursday that free tuition is an unattainable goal for the United States and an unrealistic expectation for our nation’s youth. In short, I disagree. Education is the single best way to increase the well-being of an individual and indeed a society as a whole, so why are we making a college education an increasingly economically unattainable concept? Instead of helping our young people assimilate into the working world, our system crushes them under the cost of their education. Subsidized higher education is actually well within our grasp (as exemplified by economically successful and widely educated European nations) and it is perhaps the most important economic change our nation can make to create positive change not only in our job market and economy, but also the most efficient means of solving a number of the United States’ societal ills, including poverty, government dependence and crime rates. Woodruff suggests that the government cannot reduce the cost of higher education because of the astronomical national debt weighing down our nation. However, this is not a question
of the government sinking further into debt because the money can be freed up by reallocation of government funds or, as Democratic candidate Bernie Sanders suggested, by placing a “speculation tax” on Wall Street and asking the industries the government bailed out during the recession to start paying up on the investment. Another strategy I mentioned is a mere reallocation of government funds. This could perhaps come from a slight decrease in military spending, an area in which we are all aware the United States dwarfs all other nations. Is it really such a ridiculous request that we take a little money away from the force we often use to fight other societies, so we may invest in building up our own? A second area from which the government may reallocate funds is the prison industry. President Obama hypothesized that by correcting a broken justice system that has caused a massive rise in U.S. prison populations, we may be able to spend less on prisons. By reforming laws that put millions of low-level offenders in prison for decades, we can lessen the need for the $80 billion we currently spend on prisons and incarceration. I would explain his plan, but Obama said it best himself while speaking at an NAACP conference earlier in 2015. “For what the U.S spends on keeping people in prison per year, $80 billion, there could be universal pre-school, doubled salaries for high school teachers or free tuition at U.S public colleges or universities,” Obama said. Woodruff also postulated that paying loans in school can be a positive experience for students and indeed a formative lesson for Americans emerging into the job market. In a society where the cost of higher education is quickly outweighing its intended benefits, this is a dangerous point of view. Woodruff cites a USA Today study, which found that more than half of students are unemployed after their first six
months in the “real world,” and uses this statistic to highlight the importance of the ability to manage a budget. I see the statistic in a different light. To me it says a college degree no longer carries the weight in the job market that it once did. While those students spend those six months budgeting and scraping by, the debt collectors are coming. However, these recent graduates have nothing to give them (unemployed as they are), and their degrees seem to be worth more as kindling than evidence of education. All the while, more debt is incurred. This is no longer a question of “can we?” It should be a demand of “we must” from the American populous — its youth, specifically — when it comes to increasing the economic viability of a college education. In the United States, banks get bailouts, insurance companies get bailouts, the auto industry gets a bailout but the common person, the students aspiring to become contributing members of a strong middle class (the driving force of a consumer-based economy such as our own) is left to fend for themselves. An investment in education is an investment in the future of our nation. Education lifts people from poverty, increases societal involvement and provides an entirely different view of our world and the way it works. The current system doesn’t work (or will not work very much longer), and it’s fine to admit that. The only wrong move is to do nothing to change the situation and allow the student debt crisis to exacerbate itself to the point of widespread financial hardship for the newest generation of working Americans. There is nothing formative or glamorous about living in debt. There is only hardship. And if that hardship can be avoided, our government would be doing us all a disservice by not making every effort to correct the issue.
A comic world that’s PC is comic By Beth.Woodruff @iowastatedaily.com “Iron Man,” “Captain America” and “Spider-Man”: name a superhero movie and I’ve seen it. I’m the geeky girl who knows all the backstories of the heroes and counts down the days until the release of any and all films. Lately, I have noticed a wide discrepancy over the new SpiderMan, played by Tom Holland, and the idea that he is the third white actor to portray the hero. Many people are advocating for an African-American actor to play Miles Morales (SpiderMan’s successor) rather than Peter Parker, the Spider-Man we are all familiar with. However, Sony and Marvel decided to continue using the traditional Spider-Man character, which caused a rift in public opinion. Some are trying to stick with tradition and some are wanting the actor portraying Parker to be from a minority group. This is nothing new. Simi-
lar disputes have erupted during the last few years. In the latest Fantastic Four movie, the Human Torch, played by Michael B. Jordan, is AfricanAmerican, despite the character’s origins as being a blond Caucasian. The new female Thor comics, where Jane Foster wields the hammer and has super powers, features a different take on the usual male lead. Even the DC Universe is jumping on the diversity bandwagon, announcing Green Lantern is now homosexual. While bringing diversity into the comic world appears to be the trend, it is also creating a world where everything must be politically correct. I am not a racist, nor do I advocate for intolerance toward any minority,but there is a limit to how PC our world has to be, and I feel that line is being crossed. Tradition does have a place in the world. Forbes.com released an article complaining about the new Peter Parker (Spider-Man) being
played by a white man in the upcoming Spider-Man reboot and in Captain America: Civil War. The author of the article, Scott Mendelson, states how it is time for Parker to be played by an African-American actor, as the “‘scrawny white kid swings around town as Spider-Man, makes wisecracks, does the superhero thing, deals with romantic entanglements’” has gotten redundant. However, this is Spider-Man, this is who Peter Parker is, and changing that would be altering the identity of the hero. This isn’t just a simple actor switch. Many readers commented on the article. Surprisingly, a majority of those who commented disagreed with the article. Not only that, but many of them were minorities themselves. An example of the comments can be found below. “Im (sic) Black! And I can understand white people getting heated about the ethnic change of a beloved character because it’s not ‘Racist’ to honor a tra-
ditionally and universally loved character like Peter Parker,” user Kevin Nazareth said. Making a film in which Peter Parker was portrayed by an African-American actor would make him Miles Morales, a different character in the Marvel Universe. There are no arguments to make Black Panther or Luke Cage white because in this society that would not be deemed PC. While it is good for the media to include diversity, the comic world should be left as it is. There are hundreds of heroes and villains in the Marvel and DC universes, and while there are primarily Caucasian characters, there are several other ethnicities in the mix as well. Fans have grown to love many heroes despite race, age or gender. The nation is too preoccupied with being “politically correct” to realize the majority of fans want to see their favorite heroes come to life on the big screen, just as they always envisioned them as children.
We’re sick of the freshman 15 stereotype. We’re sick of the stigma that dorm rooms are full of pizza boxes, empty chip bags and towers of pop cans. We’re sick of having to wait in the coffee line for 10 minutes because half of campus needs an IV of caffeine in order to function. Basically, we’re sick of college students thinking it’s “OK” to be unhealthy, thinking it’s the time in our lives that we can handle the damage to our young bodies and mental states. While healthy living campaigns and better food choices are a desirable step in the right direction, it all comes down to culture. The culture students and other age groups have created say that it’s acceptable for college students to endure the intense stresses that cause study sessions that roll deep into the night, giving opportunity for unhealthy midnight snacks and a lack of sleep. The culture that encourages a weekend routine to liver damage and a greasy snack to end every Friday night. The kind of culture that laughs with laziness but at the same time forces excessive sitting to finish hours of homework. A culture shift starts with a conversation. We want to start a conversation about a healthier campus. ISU Dining does an excellent job of offering the food pyramid and even started the #healthyselfie to encourage healthier student habits. But let’s be real. Students will always go for the taunting onion rings, the rich ice cream and the hot pizza. The goal of sleeping eight hours every night is hardly attainable. And sometimes the gym just isn’t the top priority either. So how can we make a healthier campus? Is it on the students? Is it on administration? What about professors’ expectations of students? Do we partner together? We propose small changes to encourage a healthier campus. Food in vending machines is hardly known for being healthy. While we recognize vending machines’ limitations in storing healthy food, there are healthier alternatives to Cheetos and soda, such as string cheese, nuts, flavored water, dried fruit, dry cereal and whole grain popcorn. Sleep is highly sought after, but after a full schedule, membership in numerous campus organizations and attempting to have a social life, maintaining a somewhat decent sleeping routine can prove difficult. Studies even show young people’s minds aren’t fully functioning until after 8 a.m. because the sleep inducing hormone melatonin is still being introduced into the system at that hour. How can students be expected to achieve a decent GPA, round out a résumé with campus activities, go to the gym, make time for leisure and get to bed before midnight and act fully awake at an 8 a.m. class? Excessive amounts of homework from multiple classes encourages lengthy sitting sessions, but how many students know about the trek desks located throughout campus? Living in close quarters spreads germs like wildfire. And missing class because of illness puts you behind in classwork and participation points, adding stress and possibly making you even more sick. The attitude that our vibrant, invincible, youthful bodies are not vulnerable will undoubtedly affect our not so youthful bodies a decade or two down the road. So the change in our attitudes now could be the change that shapes your future body.

Bundrage uses injury as motivation By Luke.Manderfeld @iowastatedaily.com Redshirt senior Quenton Bundrage jumped on the field against North Dakota State on Aug. 30 last season, ready to follow up his previous season at Iowa State in which he led the team in receptions, touchdowns and receiving yards. But in an instant, all of it was gone. Bundrage tore his ACL on the first offensive series of the new season, ending it completely. All the hours he had put in during the offseason were pulled out from under him in a flash. At least for one season. Bundrage will return to the lineup for his last season donning an ISU jersey, bringing a new mentality and perspective to his entire team. “[The injury] just made me look at life differently,” Bundrage said. “Anything can be taken away from you at any moment.

Volleyball recruiting class adds depth, talent By Garrett.Kroeger @iowastatedaily.com ISU volleyball coach Christy Johnson-Lynch made one thing clear during her media day press conference — this is her deepest team yet. With players like 2014 Big 12 Libero of the Year Caitlin Nolan returning, it’s not hard to see why Johnson-Lynch would make that statement. But the reason is not because of the players who are returning. It’s because of the team’s newest members. “We brought in a lot of depth in this 2015 recruiting class,” said assistant coach and recruiting coordinator Jon NewmanGonchar. The Cyclones have added six freshmen to their 2015 roster, and those freshmen are all unique in their own way. Johnson-Lynch said both left-side hitter Hannah Bailey and outside hitter Jess Schaben have been

hitter] and she has been a terminator for us,” Johnson-Lynch said. “And Bailey, I have seen her some days become a terminator for us on the left side.” Not only has Schaben been dominant for the Cy-
clones this preseason, but she has reminded Johnson-Lynch a lot of former ISU All-American Victoria Hurtt. Along with Schaben, who has been one of the more comfortable fresh-
men during the preseason, Johnson-Lynch said Grace Lazard is also fitting in well. “Grace [Lazard] joined us last spring, which has helped her a lot thus far,” Johnson-Lynch said. “She has been a physical competitor at blocker and possesses great presence, though she still needs to clean up her blocking technique.” Lazard is not the only freshman who needs to improve her technique. Hali Hillegas will need to clean up her technique as she goes from a “do everything” player in high school to become a successful, full-time defensive specialist/libero. Johnson-Lynch said this is something she can see happening in the future. “Given time, I believe she will flourish at that position,” Johnson-Lynch said. The last two freshmen, setter Remi Bowman and defensive specialist/libero Abby Phillips both seem to be naturals at their given positions this preseason.
Not only have these six players been impressive thus far, they were highly sought after around the country. Bailey, Bowman and Schaben were all top-35 recruits coming out of high school. Bowman, the No. 22 recruit in the country, is tied with former ISU setter Alison Landwehr as the highest rated recruit to grace Iowa State’s campus. Not only were those three freshmen top-35 recruits, Lazard was one of the top young players in the United Kingdom, and Hillegas and Phillips were two of the top recruits in Iowa. At the end of the recruiting cycle, these six freshmen formed a class elite enough to give the Cyclones the No. 8 ranked class in the nation. With a top-10 recruiting class, Johnson-Lynch said she hasn’t een disappointed yet this preseason. “This is a terrific group of women and they have gotten along very nicely with the rest of the team,” Johnson-Lynch said.

Style tips for the first ISU football game SHOES Supportive shoes are essential for football games, whether you’re a man or woman. Even if students don’t have a long walk to the stadium, they will still be standing often throughout the day while in the stands or tailgating. Fatigue sets in much faster without supportive shoes. ISU-themed sneakers, or plain red or yellow sneakers, can add another layer of festivity to your outfit.
By Brittany.Moon @iowastatedaily.com The first football gameday is almost upon us, and students need to dress appropriately for a day in the heat and humidity while sitting on hot metal bleachers or playing ladder golf and bags at a tailgate. The first thing any student should do is to check the weather forecast. This can help determine what to wear and the type of clothing that will be appropriate for gameday. If there is a chance of rain, closed-toe shoes are always a better option to keep feet dry and clean. A jacket of some sort can be helpful as well. If the weather forecast shows nothing but sunshine and heat, shorts and tanks will be much more comfortable for sitting — or standing — during a football game. Both men and women would also like to consider an open-toe pair of shoes for a game with a warmer forecast. Sandals along with flip-flops are popular during these times. Each student should always remember to bring their student ID to every football game. In order to enter the football game itself, the student ID is needed to scan through for ticketing purposes. Another item each student should remember that most would never forget is a cell phone. In most cases, no college student would leave his or her apartment or dorm without the beloved cell phone, but always make sure to have it fully charged in case you are separated from friends. In order to take pictures worthy of a scrapbook or appropriately share to social media, consider some of the following accessories to prepare yourself for gameday.

ISU CUTOFFS Cutoff tees and tanks are also a very popular trend on college gameday. Women can reuse an old T-shirt as a tank top with the bottom cut off as fringe or cut as a crop top. The Internet is full of DIY projects. Another popular DIY cutoff for women is to purchase an oversized men’s shirt and transform it into a tube dress with removal of the sleeves and neck hem and belting. TATTOOS Temporary tattoos have been a big trend for a while, whether they are of Cy or an ISU logo. If students are already draped in spirit gear from head to toe, temporary tattoos can fill up the blank space on the apple of a cheek or upper arm. They can be applied with warm water and removed with water and soap. HEADBANDS The first few games are going to be in the heat. Headbands keep hair off your face, helping it stay cool. Students can buy headbands from a store or make their own using red and yellow strips of fabric braided together. Men and women can also use ISU sweatbands to catch perspiration while sitting on hot-metal bleachers.

MOVE, p1 “The people who give motivational speeches aren’t necessarily the most important people, they’re just some of the best speakers,” Diaz said. MOVE guarantees students that every Monday night it will bring in someone to speak who is worth their time. An important variable of MOVE is the element of anticipation. Diaz said most of its lineup for this year is set, but isn’t being released. “We just want you to come and know that it’s going to be good and trust us that we would not put someone on stage that was going to be a bad speaker,” Diaz said. However, MOVE is more than just a series of talks. Diaz has big plans for the group. He prefers to keep some of the exciting things in store a mystery, but a couple of things are certain. “It’s a club. It’s a nonprofit. It’s a church. It’s a community,” Diaz said. MOVE Night’s location, the Campanile, was chosen not just for convenience. “It’s a central location for all students,” Diaz said,
Jenna Reeves/Iowa State Daily
Jean Carlos Diaz, the founder and director of MOVE, talks to students in front of the Campanile. MOVE is a new student group on campus aiming to provide motivational talks and a supportive community.
adding that “it’s a natural place for community to develop,” something he believes people are meant for. “We think college is a fantasy world where you can hang out with people and have some of the best relationships ever, but that somehow we have created a society where that doesn’t exist later. We [MOVE] want
to change that,” Diaz said. MOVE also designs web pages for various clients and plans to expand the services MOVE has to offer. MOVE is working toward creating a diverse community that can successfully welcome all groups of people. In order to create a message that everyone can understand, Diaz has people
on his staff who speak different languages, like English, Spanish, Arabic, Chinese and Hindi. Along with a variety of purposes and languages, students can expect a variety of topics. Monday’s discussion was focused on community. In the future, MOVE plans to hash out key societal issues.
The speaker and topic won’t be announced until Monday morning each week, and texting is the only way to find out what to expect. Students can text 707413-6683 for a free T-shirt and more information on the talks each Monday. They can also check out MOVE online at ThatMoves.Me. “What we need is a human group … a group that brings people together for what matters most, that talks about social justice and the environment, and sex, slavery and all the issues that we really care about, but no one’s really talking about,” Diaz said. Diaz acknowledges there are many important causes in the world. He urges ISU students to either be the generation to talk about the issues, or, better yet, the generation to do something about them. MOVE has specific ideas for conversation, but they value authenticity. The goal for MOVE is not to have everyone do “their thing.” Diaz said the goal is to have a discussion about what can actually be done. Austin Sondag, freshman in business, was one of
the students who showed up for MOVE’s first week and returned for the conversation Monday. “It’s amazing that there’s a group of people that are all gathering because they want to talk about the big issues in our world and just try and make it a better place for everyone,” Sondag said. Diaz believes in students’ ability to make important societal decisions and changes. For example, he thinks they can choose the next president. He believes they can start companies and nonprofits, determine how the environment will be used in the future and change the global and financial systems. Diaz said, whether they like it or not, ISU students have the power to be a movement. “I’m just a man. I maybe had the balls to start it, but I’m not going to be the one who picks the next president. We are,” he said. MOVE offers messages, music and meals. To those asking questions about what MOVE is or why75004 MOVE matters, Diaz has it simplified: “Come and see.”
