The students’ chef Executive chef returns to Iowa roots, oversees ISU Dining

By Richard.Martinez @iowastatedaily.com A nuclear engineering student is carefully cutting carrots. As an employee of ISU Dining, he sees a bowl of diced carrots and a handful of peels. But when Scott Bruhn eyes the bowl, he sees food that will go toward feeding thousands of students at Iowa State. Bruhn, a 1994 ISU graduate in hotel and restaurant management, is now the executive chef for ISU Dining. After graduating, Bruhn mostly worked as a catering chef on the East Coast while attending Johnson & Wales Culinary School. “I’ve done catering for hotels mostly,” Bruhn said. “I also had an experience in fine dining with a French-style restaurant in Chicago.” Originally from Davenport, Iowa, Scott had considered returning to Iowa before, but it was an opening in ISU Dining’s senior management department that finally drew him home. “I always thought about coming back. It’s where I’m from,” Bruhn said. “Soon enough, things fell together nicely and I joined the team January of 2014.” This is the first time that Scott is working for a catering business on the university scale, especially one that feeds close to 35,000 students. As the executive chef, Bruhn oversees Iowa State’s catering services, retail operations, C-Stores and dining halls, meeting with each department weekly. Along with 1,800 student workers, ISU Dining employs several chefs de cuisine to oversee these units. A chef de cuisine — like Ed Astarita, sous chef for the KnappStorm bakery — brings diverse skills to the team. Pastry chefs, another type of chef de cuisine, produce all of the university’s baked goods. However, they also accept orders to make wedding cakes and desserts. Astarita mentioned working on a “3-foot tall cake of the Campanile for a special event for the university.” Included in the bakery’s portfolio are cardinal and gold cupcake displays, birthday cookie cakes and an expansive menu of fondant wedding cakes. “I don’t think people realize there’s a lot more when it comes to feeding students in the dining centers,” Bruhn said. “There [are] a lot of moving parts, but the chefs are great guys to work with. They’re the ones in the trenches making sure things are getting done, ensuring food quality is high.” While Bruhn’s main duties are to lead student workers, sous chefs and dining administrators, he is also called upon to cater special university events.

Jonathan Wickert, two ISU students and representatives from 10 other universities will present their program in Washington D.C. on how to help lowincome and first-generation graduates with degrees. The University Innovation Alliance — which was created by 11 major research universities including Oregon State, Michigan State, Ohio State, Purdue University and Iowa State — will focus on retention rates for low-income and firstgeneration students. The alliance will match the $5.6 million that it has already raised in order to create a dialogue between the universities about programs and innovations that are already used at individual universities to help raise retention. “If you look at our nation’s workforce needs and you look at all the talented young people out there who want college degrees, it’s clear that we can do more to help those students achieve their dreams and help them be successful and complete those degrees,” Wickert said. Wickert, senior vice president and provost, said President Steven Leath has championed the “very noble cause.” The project will play out over three to five years, but the universities are already collaborating. “ What’s really special about the alliance is that the universities have committed to sharing between themselves the good ideas they have and the innovations that work,” Wickert said. “Instead of competing against one another, Iowa State and the other 10 schools have agreed to work together on something that fundamentally benefits students.” One of the innovations that Iowa State may implement is using predictive analytics to see how students will perform in their classes and provide them with advising tools that will help them determine which majors in which they would be successful. This innovation is already in place in other universities. One of the innovations Wickert said Iowa State plans to share with the other schools is the university’s plan for learning communities, something Wickert said Iowa State does well. Alma Marquez, senior in chemical and biological engineering, is one of the students accompanying Wickert to the nation’s capitol. She will represent ISU students for the alliance. Marquez, a graduate of East High School in Des Moines and a first-generation college student, said the learning communities were integral part to her success. “I definitely believe that being a part of the learning community helps students get acclimated to Iowa State, and they help with that transition and their overall college success,” said Marquez, a peer mentor for the past two years. Marquez was first involved in the Leadership Through Engineering Academic Diversity learning community that celebrates and helps multicultural students in engineering be successful. There have been times when she’s been discouraged, Marquez said, but the peers in her learning community propped her up. Marquez said the learning communities are more crucial than ever for students to take advantage of because of fewer opportunities to interact with instructors. Learning communities provide a chance to work with peers and mentors and they give students an opportunity to learn about the resources available for them on campus. “As a lot of us know, Iowa

By Beau.Berkley, Alex.Gookin @iowastatedaily.com After leaving the ISU football team Sept. 4, offensive lineman Jacob Gannon has made the decision to rejoin the team. When he left the team 11 days ago, Gannon said that it was for personal reasons. “I have been recently diagnosed with anxiety,” Gannon said in a release from the athletic department. “I am receiving treatment for my condition and I am looking forward to being a part of the football team. I want to thank Coach Rhoads and my teammates for their support.” Gannon said he experienced an anxiety attack during practice Sept. 3. He said the attack made him think he hated football, which led to his departure from the team. Dr. Marc Shulman,

physician for the ISU athletic department, explained what goes through a person’s mind when having a panic attack. “Picture yourself in a room with no air and a window at the far end and you will do anything you can to break through that window to get to the air,” Shulman s aid. “You kind of shut everything else out ... that’s really what a panic attack feels like.” Gannon called offensive line coach Brandon Blaney to seek help from a sports psychologist. Gannon’s parents came to Ames on Sept. 6 and all of them met with Rhoads on Sept. 7 to discuss their options. “After going to counseling, I realized that football wasn’t the problem,” Gannon said. “The problem was this anxiety.” Gannon said Rhoads told him to get his condition a little bit more under control as the team

prepared for the Cy-Hawk game, so there would be less distractions. Gannon Gannon continued to work out and started taking medication before announcing Monday that he would be rejoining the team. “Today at practice felt a lot better,” Gannon said. “It was one of the first times in a while that I really enjoyed playing the game because I felt that weight lifted off my shoulders and I remembered why I liked playing football in the first place.” Gannon said it was “really hard” to watch the Kansas State and Iowa games after leaving the team, but he’s excited to get back on the field. Gannon is a threeyear letter winner and has started a game in each of his four seasons.

ISU Theatre has been around for 100 years and an anniversary gala will take place on Nov. 15. Auditions for the gala begin Thursday and students, faculty and alumni can audition for the show.

100 years of ISU Theatre By Dakota.Carpenter @iowastatedaily.com Students, faculty and alumni will have a chance to showcase their talents in ISU Theatre’s celebration of its 100th anniversary. Auditions for the anniversary gala will take place Thursday. Students are allowed to prepare anything that highlights the performing arts such as acting, singing and dancing. The gala performance will be Nov. 15 in Fisher Theater. Jane Cox has been with ISU Theatre for more than 20 years. She has been work-

ing to contact and coordinate dates and times with alumni for the gala. Cox said she is looking forward to a large attendance at the gala. She is also expecting polished performances from all involved participants. “I hope they’ll see some of the best talent we’ve ever produced,” Cox said. “I think we have somebody coming from each coast.” One alumnus that the audience will be able to see on stage will be Frank Ferguson. Ferguson graduated in 1950 with a degree in journalism and is now living in

Boston, Mass. During his time at Iowa State, he participated in theater as an extracurricular. For the gala, Ferguson will be performing the Stage Manager’s opening monologue from “Our Town” by Thornton Wilder. He has performed this play a number of times and has been spending his time polishing his lines. Ferguson said he is looking forward to seeing current ISU students’ performances as well as participating in the gala. He said he is excited to return to Ames for a visit and has plans to visit with Cox.

“I was delighted because theater had been an important part of my life,” Ferguson said of his feelings when he was asked to participate. Although alumni performances will be featured at the gala, student performances will be an important part of the night as well. Auditions are open to all students. Everyone auditioning will be given the opportunity to work alongside other students in performing arts as well as students from other majors and backgrounds. Christopher Priebe, senior in performing arts, has

been involved in more than nine university productions and will be auditioning for the gala. He said he is looking forward to working with his colleagues, as well as watching and learning from the alumni performers. “Everything is more fun when everyone is willing to work hard to succeed together,” Priebe said. Priebe is preparing a scene from the play “Amadeus.” He previously performed this scene when ISU Theatre put on the show in the spring 2014 semester. Priebe has been reworking the scene and challenging himself to make it

even better than it was when he previously performed in the show. “ I t ’s a n a u d i t i o n ,” Priebe said. “[You need to] know what it is that you are doing. Don’t wing it.” Pr iebe is expecting great things from the gala performances. He said he is confident that it will be a night filled with excitement for ISU Theatre as well as a collection of performances from old to young. “Experience is what makes you a better actor,” Priebe said. “If you want to do something, there’s a place for you.”

All we are doing is calculating the cost for them and doing the analyses,” Tyndall said. That will make the information in the tool easy to access and makes sure a farmer doesn’t have to search for information. The two-year project is in its first year of development, with plans to unveil more later this year. The project will be complete by the summer of 2015 and the app is specific to Iowa. It is funded by the Iowa Nutrient Research Center.

Workspace, poets support global unity By Patrick.Budding @iowastatedaily.com

Michael Rowley/Iowa State Daily

Reed Siems, senior in integrated studio arts, makes buttons for 11 Days of Global Unity, which promotes peace.

The global initiative to create international peace and unity is being celebrated in the Ames community, despite fewer events occurring. Two groups have continued to host events for an international campaign called The 11 Days of Global Unity. The annual campaign, which runs from last Thursday to this Sunday, was started in 2004 to promote global peace, unity and sustainability. It is celebrated in more than 60 countries worldwide. To honor the initiative, students can make peace buttons to show support for unity this week in The Workspace at the Memorial Union. A local Ames poetry society, Third Stanza, had its annual poetry reading in honor of the 11 Days mission. “Besides the enjoyment that our group does from working together and doing a public reading, and our tradition that is now 7 years old, I’m just getting old enough to really believe that an event like this is just, is a very good reminder to make a person sit down and think about what global unity means,” said Maggie Westvold, member of the Third Stanza. We s t v o l d s a i d t h a t global unity is about finding peace from within oneself, and then extending

and sharing that peace in relationships, in the community, state, country and world. She said she supports public readings and activities that openly spread the 11 Days’ vision of peace. In past years, the Ames community has put on several events during the week, with involvement from local churches and well as ISU faculty and staff. Yet this year, only two events are happening. Letitia Kenemer is the fine arts and Workspace coordinator at Iowa State. She started off the 11 Days with a “peace pottery” workshop where students could make pottery and glassware with peaceful and unifying messages. This week, she is giving students the opportunity to make buttons for 50 cents promoting the same message. To take part in the 11 Days campaign, students can make their own peace button in The Workspace at the Memorial Union during their open hours for the rest of this week. “With what’s going on in the world, it’s always good to take a step back and hope for peace,” Kenemer said. Dennis Maulsby, president of the Iowa Poetry Association, said he believes that ISU students should value the cause of spreading global unity.

Michael Rowley/Iowa State Daily

Monday’s activity for 11 Days of Global Unity was button making, which took place in the Memorial Union’s Workspace.

The idea of global unity is an important one in a diverse community like Iowa State. The university has more than 8,000 international and multicultural students and more than 1,300 students who studied in foreign countries last year. “Iowa State students come from around all over the world. And this is celebrated all over the world,” Maulsby said. “Students can come here because there is a certain amount of peace and sustainability in the world, and we should celebrate that.” A l l o f I o w a S t a t e’s events have been registered with and recognized by the non-profit organization responsible for leading the 11 Days campaign, WE. More information about WE and the 11 Days of Global Unity campaign can be found at www.we.net.

New innovation center to provide hands-on experience By Danielle.Ferguson @iowastatedaily.com Students in the colleges of engineering and design will soon have the opportunity to work with more hands-on projects in a new Student Innovation Center. The center is a joint project between the two colleges and aims to provide students with a more modern space to work on class and organization projects, such as the Data Mining and PrISUm Solar Car teams, said Provost Jonathan Wickert. Wickert also said students in other disciplines and studies will be able to use the center as well. The space, approved by the Board of Regents at the September meeting, would be the central workspace hub to house resources students would use to complete projects. “When you think about the Iowa State experience, it’s very hands on, very prac-

tical,” Wickert said. “There’s a lot of building, fabricating and innovating that goes on in the curriculum.” The building is centered around the idea of “learning through making,” said Luis Rico-Gutierrez, dean of the College of Design. “ We l e a r n t h r o u g h making,” Rico-Gutierrez said. “That is the big umbrella concept for that building. Our students and faculty can engage in learning through making.” Many of the design and manufacturing labs are scattered around multiple buildings, Wickert said. The center would provide one location, open 24 hours a day, for students to work on projects. Students would also have a chance to work with students in other disciplines, said Sarah Rajala, dean of the College of Engineering. She said this is important when students are posed with complex, real-

The high-technology resources needed for many of the projects would be housed in this new center, Rajala said. Faculty and staff will play a role in the center, supervising and helping students with projects and making sure students know how to use the available technology.

“We need to be very responsible in the way we use the resources of the university and therefore the state,” Rico-Gutierrez said. “It is very smart to consolidate some of our more expensive equipment so that it is accessible to everybody.” Hands-on projects and multi-discipline learning experiences help attract employers to Iowa State, Wickert said. “Recruiters tell us they come here because our students have those kinds of skills,” he said. Rajala said the center will be an important aspect to help students find jobs. “It’s also going to be important from the standpoint of partnering with industry and making sure industry understands the kind of experience our students are getting,” she said. “It will be important to make sure we have all those companies try to hire our students.” The proposed 175,000-square-foot center would be near the Marston Water Tower where the Nuclear Engineering Laboratory and the parking lot east of the lab currently stand. The innovation center was approved as part of the 2016 fiscal year budget request to the state. The $80 million center’s funding will be split evenly between private fundraising and state funds. The project is in the planning stage and will

move forward if the budget is approved by the legislature at the end of the spring 2014 semester. If approved, Rajala said she and other administrators would work on an in-depth design and infrastructure for the building. Constructing an entirely new building is a more cost-effective move for the university than revamping the Nuclear Engineering Lab and Sweeney Hall, Rajala said. The buildings aren’t worth investing in because of their conditions, she said. “Students are interested in participating in organizations, but we’re limited to what we can do because of the space that we have,” she said. A new building would be a useful prospective student recruiting tool, Rajala said. “The design is to make it very visible so that it is very easy to convey to people what it is being accomplished in that environment,” she said. Both Rajala and RicoGutierrez said they look forward to the opportunities their students will have with the center. “What it allows us to do is really better connect the experiences in the classroom with the co-curricular, out-of-classroom experiences,” Rajala said. “We can really look at the education of the students as a whole time they’re here.”

OPINION

Tuesday, Sept. 16, 2014

By Katie.Titus @iowastatedaily.com On Sunday, thousands of Democrats gathered in a balloon field in Indianola, Iowa, to celebrate the annual Harkin Steak Fry. This year was the 37th steak fry hosted by the Harkins, and it was also the last one they will ever have. Sen. Tom Harkin is retiring. I was lucky enough to go to the Harkin Steak Fry. I was not raised a Democrat, but it is not everyday that you get to hear many great people speaking in one place. Tom and Ruth Harkin as well as Bill and Hillary Clinton were the main speakers of the day, and Democrats from far and wide came to hear them speak. While sitting in the audience of the steak fry, it dawned on me that a few years ago, I would not even know what the steak fry was about or possibly even who Harkin was. I do not mean that last phrase in any offense toward Harkin, but when I was a younger student, I did not care as much about politics as I do now. Many students on this campus have the same mentality as I once did. Why did it matter if I were to go to the steak fry? I wasn’t going to make a difference — I didn’t even know what was going on. I was incorrect. We are incorrect. Student voting matters now as much as it has in the past. We have the ability to make monumental changes. Everything from voting for the local city council members to voting for the next president of the United States comes down to a decision that we make on a ballot. Rock the Vote is an organization that aims at getting students interested

Students need to get involved in US politics

in politics by incorporating music and concerts with the voting experience. It is just one of the organizations that realizes that young people need to take advantage of the opportunities they have available, especially when it comes to taking action on the future and what the government in this country is going to look like. We h a v e g r ow n u p thinking that politics was something that we didn’t have to worry about. After all, we were just kids

— why would we need to be thinking about politics? Well fellow students, the times have changed, and with the United States making changes across the board, from education to foreign policy, we need to be able to understand and make decisions on a political level. It was a great experience to be able to see a U.S. senator, a former president and many candidates running for political office speak at the Harkin Steak Fry. I left that day not only

Vicious college fans take rivalries too far By Katie.Titus @iowastatedaily.com In high school, we learn to have good spor tsmanship when attending athletic events. We don’t chant swear words at the other team. When we take off to college, the whole idea of sportsmanship goes out the window. Rivalries in college have gone to a whole new level, even in our own state between Iowa and Iowa State with the battle for the CyHawk trophy. However, there is a point where a college rivalry crosses the line. We students are most familiar with the rivalries that are close to home. The rivalry between Iowa and Iowa State

with a sunburn, but with new insight on the issues that the democratic party cared about. It is time for us to rise up and get involved with taking control of our futures. Learning about candidates and what they have to offer is going to help us make a more educated decision come voting day. We will eventually be the leaders of this country. It is time we started taking charge of our beliefs and making a difference in the U.S. government.

Although ISU fans may think that there is nobody in the world that is worse than an Iowa fan, rivalries from around the country have gotten much more intense and vicious recently.

is one with which Iowans from all over the state are familiar. Tshirts all over the state will say things like “Beat Iowa” or “*uck State.” Although we ISU fans may think there is nobody in the world that is worse than an Iowa fan, rivalries from around the country have gotten to be much worse. A perfect example of a college showing lack of sportsmanship toward its rival is Rutgers University in New Jersey. Rutgers wore shirts to last Saturday’s game against Penn State that read “Ped State.” The shirts said this to aim the attention at the Sandusky scandal with the sexual abuse of children that happened at Penn State University. Although the two teams are ri-

vals, personal attacks on a hardship that the school faced is more than friendly banter. Another example of fans crossing the line for their favorite team is one of the most well-known rivalries, Alabama and Auburn. Harvey Updyke, a 62-year-old Alabama fan, poisoned Auburn Universities historic trees located on Toomer’s Corner, a place where Auburn fans go to celebrate their wins. After the Tigers won a national championship, they gathered in Toomer’s Corner to celebrate their victory, but instead found the 130-year-old trees had herbicides in the surrounding soil and were most likely going to die. A rivalry should not include destruction of prop-

erty or hurting anyone else. It seems that more and more university-level rivalries are pushing the envelope when it comes to what is a friendly “no harm, no foul” rivalry, and what it means to put someone or something in danger. Every school should evaluate their sportsmanship and begin to reconsider their actions before directly targeting someone or ruining property of another school. Rivalries are important, but they are mostly for fun. There is no reason for college students to act out in these passive-aggressive manner toward each other. We should all resort back to sportsmanship and work to get college sport rivalries back to a fun and friendly environment.

LETTER TO THE EDITOR

Preserve our planet for future generations to enjoy By Cormac Diggins, Senior in landscape architecture Iowans should be concerned about Iowa’s current projection of a sustainably ef-

ficient and environmentally healthy future. As it stands now, our carbon dioxide output is degrading Iowa’s air quality. It exacerbates climate change, affecting those living in cities as well as those in rural areas. As a young resident

and student of this state, I know that we need change. Not only are we obligated to protect and preserve the planet we live on, but we also have an obligation to protect the health of our fellow man. Setting sensible carbon

pollution standards for power plants is the right thing to do. I believe in, and very seriously encourage, all Iowans to support the Environmental Protection Agency’s National Climate Action Plan and Iowa’s Clean Power Plan.

The 37th annual Harkin Steak Fry took place on Sunday. Iowa is a big state for politics with it being the first caucus and being a swing state. It is important for students to get involved in the events that occur here.

Participate in events like Harkin Steak Fry The 37th annual Harkin Steak Fry took place Sunday, Democrats from all over Iowa, as well as some very special speakers, came to celebrate Sen. Tom Harkin’s last steak fry ever. The balloon field in Indianola, Iowa, was flooded with Democrats from around the state to show support for the retiring senator. Harkin has been working as a U.S. senator for the state of Iowa for 40 years and said he got into politics after losing the spot as county attorney for Story County to his wife, Ruth. The two have been working hard for Iowa ever since and now the Harkins are retiring. Over time, Harkin has made plenty of political decisions, recently increasing research for alternative medicine and working to raise the minimum wage with the Minimum Wage Fairness Act. Harkin has served as senator longer than any Iowa Democrat in history. He even ran for president in 1992, but later dropped out of the race in order to support fellow Democrat and friend Bill Clinton. That is why it was no surprise that the Clintons were in attendance of Harkin’s final steak fry. Bill and Hillary Clinton were both there to support Harkin. Their appearance also served the dual purpose of getting Hillary back in Iowa after almost seven years. It has not been determined whether or not she will be running for president; in fact, when asked, she responded with, “I am thinking about it, but today I am here for the steak.” The Clintons along with Bruce Braley — the Iowa Democrat running for Harkin’s seat — Jim Mowrer, Staci Appel, Pat Murphy, Jack Hatch and Tom and Christie Vilsack were all in attendance and spoke about Harkin’s success as a senator. They also campaigned to fill the ballot with Democrats for upcoming elections. However, more impressively, were the ISU students who were in attendance for the steak fry. Students who are involved with ISU Democrats as well as students who came to support a candidate arrived at the steak fry fired up and ready to go. It is important to see students taking charge and getting involved with politics. Many students think that politics is something that is out of their control, politics only function properly when people are involved. Politicians are listening. They want to know what the people of Iowa want and what the students of Iowa want. The best way for students to better learn about politics is to actually go to the events and learn about it. The students that were in attendance at the steak fry are setting a great example for the rest of the student body by getting involved in politics and learning about politics. That means when it comes time to vote, they will be able to make an educated decision on the ballot rather than just guess or not vote at all. Harkin dedicated his life to working for the Democratic Party, and sending him off to retirement with speeches from the Clintons, as well as other important Democratic candidates, would have been a great experience for any student. More students should try to be in attendance for these types of events so that when it comes time to vote there is actually some thought put into it. No matter if you are a Democrat, Republican, Independent or anything else, learning about politics and attending these events are going to make us stronger when making political decisions. It is time for students to learn more about political parties and educate ourselves. We are the voices of the United States, and we should understand how our country works.

Freshman wide receiver Allen Lazard had a career-high number of receptions and yards during the Cy-Hawk Series game against Iowa on Saturday. The Cyclones defeated the Hawkeyes 20-17.

Confidence leads to improvement By Alex.Gookin @iowastatedaily.com After falling behind 14-3, the Cyclones came roaring back with a 74yard drive in the final four minutes of the first half. Only one yard separated the Cyclones from a onepossession game with the second half kickoff going to Iowa State. Running back DeVondrick Nealy lowered his head to punch in the touchdown, but crossed the goal line without the ball with Iowa covering it in the end zone. Coach Paul Rhoads

found Nealy on the sidelines, looked him in the eye and kept his message short and sweet. “We’re going to need you again,” Rhoads said. Then Nealy fumbled again. In a tight game with t w o m i s t a k e s f ro m t h e team’s second string running back, most coaches don’t give third chances. But halfway through the f o u r t h q u a r t e r, N e a l y checked in, ran a wheel route down the sideline and caught Sam Richardson’s 27-yard touchdown pass to give the Cyclones the lead. Why did Rhoads give him another chance?

“Co n f i d e n c e i n m y players,” Rhoads said. “You fumble the ball going into the end zone, you could fold your tent up right then and there and you could say ‘it’s happening to us again,’ but because of what we’ve been doing from Sunday to Saturday, they didn’t say that.” The confidence in his players may or may not be related to the team’s improvement over the last three weeks, but it certainly hasn’t hindered the team. “We’ve done nothing but get better every single day in the two weeks after the first game of the season,” Rhoads said.

His confidence in Cole Netten paid off in a win coming off a season in which he hit only 3-of-7 field goals from 40-yards or more. Despite that, Rhoads sent him trotting out for 47- and 42-yard field goals with confidence, both of which he made — the latter serving as the game-winner. He showed confidence in his receivers, even with Quenton Bundrage, Jarvis West and P.J. Harris out with injury in the fourth quarter. Freshman Allen Lazard, who started fall camp as third string receiver, started the game and finished as the leading pass-grabber for

the Cyclones. Rhoads was confident with redshirt junior walk-on receiver Brett Medders as he pulled in three catches in his first real action as a Cyclone. The combination of confidence and execution has transformed the build of the Iowa State team. Instead of expecting to lose, the Cyclones chose to win. “If you were to have polled our kids in the fourth quarter [of the Kansas State game], there would have been doubt in their minds that they could win the game,” Rhoads said. “At halftime down 14-3 [against

Defensive pressure slows Iowa By Ryan.Young @iowastatedaily.com In Saturday’s rivalry win against Iowa, one thing was abundantly clear: The ISU defense has improved since the start of the season. After allowing 34 straight points against North Dakota State in week one, the ISU defense finally found a groove that worked. It kept the Hawkeyes to only three points in the second half last weekend and came up with several key stops in the final minutes of the game. “I’m just so excited. We played as a complete defense out there,” said senior linebacker Jevohn Miller. “I have to give credit to the defensive line. They fought their butts off keeping the lineman off of us, and they made some

big plays.” One of the key parts of the defense comes in the form of senior defensive end Cory Morrissey. Morrissey had the challenge of being

CYCLONE HOCKEY Player of the Week #26 Nate Percy

Senior forward Nate Percy lived up to his title of alternate captain by leading the Cyclones in scoring in their sweep of the reigning, two-time NA3HL champion North Iowa Bulls. Friday night, Percy started Iowa State’s comeback in an eventual 3-2 victory by creating the first goal and sniping the game-tying goal and then on Saturday set up Preston Blanek for the game-tying goal in the Cyclones’ 3-1 win over the Bulls. Percy and the Cyclones take on rival Oklahoma this Friday and Saturday at 7:30 p.m. at the Ames/ISU Ice Arena. ISU student tickets are only $5.00 apiece.

matched up with Iowa offensive lineman and potential top 10 NFL draft pick Brandon Scherff. Morrissey took the challenge head on, playing what coaches say is possibly his best game of the season if not his career. The Ames native had two sacks on the day, the most by any player from either team. “We just played sound football,” Morrissey said. “The guys are learning what they need to do to be successful. Going out there doing this against Iowa, we’re showing the nation what we can do and what kind of team we can be.” But it wasn’t just Morrissey’s two sacks that shook Iowa’s offense. The pressure that Morrissey brought was enough to rush Iowa quarterback Jake Rudock on several occasions, leading to several stops and even an interception. “I think a lot of it seemed like we were out of rhythm,” said Iowa head coach Kirk Ferentz. “It seemed like we were just kind of muddled there and Jake [Rudock] held the ball a little big longer, and credit goes to Iowa State. They played really good team defense today.” One major challenge that the defense still faces is the ability to play an entire

game to its full potential. Throughout the first three games, the defense has gone several minutes, even several quarters, without being able to make a stop. While this has improved tremendously for the Cyclones, traces of old habits still remain. It allowed 14 first-half points against Iowa, and seemed unable to get many stops during the beginning of the game. Ferentz saw a big difference in the second half, however, noting a big improvement from the defense. “We did a decent job [getting in rhythm] in the first half,” Ferentz said. “Second half we just never got in the traction. Part of that is selfinflicted and part of that is just good play on their part, so credit goes to them.” The biggest thing that players took away from the game is probably the fact that they never gave up. They say that they finished what they started, and that’s the best part about the win. “It just shows that we have a lot of heart,” Miller said. “There are lots of young guys that are still hungry and they want to get better everyday, and we’re getting better every single week. We’re taking it day by day, and that’s what we did on the field playing the full 60 minutes.”

Iowa]… they believed that they could win the game and they went out and physically followed up with that.” Heading into a bye week, the Cyclones will nurse a few injuries and continue the improvement that started in week one. But for now, the team can breathe a sigh of relief after avoiding an 0-3 start. “It was a huge weight o f f o f o u r s h o u l d e r s ,” said receiver Lazard. “We were just in that situation [against Kansas State] it seemed like we were close. This time we were able to pull off the win.”

With expectations of going to nationals at the end of the year, the ISU women’s cross country team is taking a laid back approach to training. B u t t h a t d o e s n’t mean the runners aren’t anxious to get back out on the course and compete. “They’re ready to go,” said ISU coach Andrea Grove-McDonough. “We know we’re good. Because we’re holding some of those big guns out, we’ll still not be as good as we’re going to be. I like that though.” Grove-McDonough plans to send as many healthy runners as possible to the Roy Griak Invitational on Sept. 27. Redshirt freshman Erin Hooker will make her much-anticipated debut for the Cyclones, along with graduate student Margaret Connelly, who transferred from Brown University. Sophomores B e t h a n i e Br ow n a n d Maryn Lowry, along with graduate student Kate DeSimone, also a transfer from Brown, will not compete at the upcoming invitational. Freshmen on the team will be held out as well. The rest of the roster is expected to race, including junior Crystal Nelson. “Because I’m only taking seven [runners] to the [Wisconsin Adidas Invitational], I’m running as many people as I can at this meet, especially because they allow unlimited entries,” GroveMcDonough said. Grove-McDonough said the team has not

been training at a high rate because it’s confident in their ability to qualify for the NCAA Championships. “At this point of the season, it’s pretty low key so far preparing for races,” said freshman Olivia Robertson. The team is also focused on trying to prevent any injuries or setbacks from occurring. “We’re increasing our fitness and trying to stay healthy because it’s just the start of the cross country season,” said freshman Evelyne Guay. Grove-McDonough has been able to focus her attention on the NCAA Championships and not worry about getting points during invitational for an at large bid into the championships. “This year, more so than I’ve ever been able to do as a coach, we’re worried about peaking at the NCAAs,” GroveMcDonough said. “We’re very confident that we’ll get an automatic bid in our region into the NCAAs.” The team will have to wait ten days before many of the runners’ season debuts. The invitational is expected to begin 12:20 p.m. Sept. 27 in Minneapolis. “A lot of the girls are so much further ahead t h a n w h e re t h e y ’v e been before,” GroveMcDonough said. “They know they’re really fit, but sometimes they just need to see it to believe it.” After the Roy Griak Invitational, the team will compete in its last competition at Wisconsin Adidas Invitational on Oct. 17 before preparing for the Big 12 Championships.

Fashion attracts students, alumna to New York By Ali.Hanson @iowastatedaily.com

The Fashion Week circuit started in New York two weeks ago, and two ISU students along with alumna Katelyn Herlein experienced the excitement firsthand. Ju s t t h r e e s e a s o n s ago, Herlein, e-commerce editor of Divine Caroline at Meredith Corporation and fashion blogger behind Katalina Girl, pitched the idea of covering New York Fashion Week to her editor and was given two weeks to prepare. With more time to prepare this season, Herlein contacted and met with numerous public relations contacts, such as Tarte Cosmetics, Redken and Pureology, to learn of upcoming products that will be featured at the shows. Once she was at the show, Herlein continued to work with the public relations representatives. She went backstage to see what different designers were doing for hair, makeup and nails. “A lot of my contacts actually started because of my blog,” Herlein said. She also said that having the Meredith Corporation name behind her was beneficial. Regardless of her growing black book of contacts, Herlein still purchases a list of public relations contacts from the New York Fashion Week venue before shows. Since no show allows public entry, one has to attain a media pass. “It’s a showing of their designer’s collections for buyers and editors because they want people to buy their clothes and to write about them,” Herlein said. With the earliest tick-

ets being sent a week in advance, it’s difficult for the blogger to prepare that extensively. Herlein knows she will most likely do daily recaps and what she thinks the trends will be in a slideshow format for readers. For this particular season, Herlein said she played with the concept of short YouTube videos to capture her days at fashion week. In seven days, Herlein attended roughly 35 events, e i t h e r a r u n w a y s h ow, presentation, backstage or public relations meeting focusing on backstage beauty regimes. Herlein said she prefers presentations, which could last up to two hours. The models are shown in their outfits and they rotate which model is the focus. Herlein said this allowed a more personal and interactive experience for all involved. Herlein not only went to the New York Fashion Week for Meredith Cor-

poration but also for her blog, which is how Meredith found and hired her. With a following of 5,500 and counting, apparel companies seek out Herlein to wear their specific garments and advertise them on her blog and social media outlets. Many of these companies are based in New York, so she made an effort to meet up with them while she was there and strengthen relationships. Being the e-commerce editor for a major publication, a blogger with a wide following, co-founder of Midwest Blogger Society and social media director for the first blogger conference in the Midwest — known as “Go Blog Social” — Herlein said fashion week is still the most exhausting week of her life. Raina Edel, former intern at Marie Claire Magazine and senior in apparel, merchandising and design, also attended New York

Fashion Week. Before she ended her summer internship, Edel said she asked if the magazine would need her help once fashion week came around in the fall. After Marie Claire recommended that Edel and two of the other interns come back, there was no needed preparation on her behalf while she was in Ames for the beginning of the semester. However, that was not the case for her while in New York. Edel was able to work with Marie Claire for seven days, working with public relations representatives to make sure all the editors had access into the shows. Then she organized their schedules on Excel spreadsheets. She also made packages with invitations, bar codes and maps for all of the editors to use to during their long days. Edel said her main job was to organize every aspect of the Courtesy of Katelyn Herlein

Katelyn Herlein, an alumna of Iowa State, has attended New York Fashion Week for the past three years. While she first attended for her job at Meredith Corporation, now she attends for her own blog Katalina Girl as well. During the week, she attended about 35 events. Many companies that advertise on her blog and social media sites are based out of New York, so Herlein makes time to meet with them and discuss their new products.

editors’ days to make their lives a little easier during fashion week. Because major publications such as Marie Claire get asked to attend many shows at coinciding times, interns are sometimes asked to attend in the place of an editor so they don’t disrespect the designer by leaving an open seat. Edel was fortunate enough to attended Nicole Miller’s show. Edel said that when those opportunities arose, it was smart for interns to have an opinion about the show and other aspects of fashion week. An editor once told her the number one thing she looks for during an interview is if the person has an opinion and if they have one about everything. The editor also said to have a polished manicure, but that’s beside the point. Edel said that without media outlets, designers would not gain nearly as much promotion. When editors are present at shows, they talk and write reviews for the rest of the world. The editors also articulate ideas from the garments shown in order to look for potential garments to use in photo shoots in their next spread. Even though the press is envied during this week, a lot goes on besides social events. ”There was definitely nights where I didn’t get any sleep,” Edel said. “I think it’s a misconception about fashion interns that it is all glamorous, but it’s a lot of work and running around the city. Especially being from Iowa, it is so intimidating.” Eileen Moores, senior in apparel, merchandising and design, attended New York Fashion Week as well.

Moores handled product development logistics while at Bespoken, a menswear company in New York, this summer, but she worked as an extra hand for the small team during fashion week. Working on the design end of the spectrum, Moores said she was able to see the garments from start to finish as they premiered during the exhibit-style show. Being the only intern for the team, Moores was delighted when they asked her back for fashion week and bought a ticket for the four-day trip. S he helped the team of six, with a temporary styling team and tailor, a few days before by putting trims together as they tailored all the outfits to the models. The team also decided at last minute to feature two female looks, so Moores was also involved with tailoring men’s clothes to women. Moores said she had more of a voice with the smaller knit group and made very good relationships with all of her bosses because they knew her on a personal level. “I developed and blossomed more in the internship this summer, so in the fall I was very comfortable with being vocal about things that I thought would look good,” said Moores. The day of the show Moores helped all the models get ready, which she said was a very relaxed process. Her major tasks were to get the clothes in the van, steam them, adjust them to fit the models and clean up after everything was said and done. “I loved it,” Moores said. “For menswear, at least from what I’ve experienced, there is no drama.”

ever, some say Gunn has made a huge impact on the fashion industry in his professional career as well as on television. Gunn is known in both the fashion and entertainment industries. Besides hosting “Project Runway,” he has covered red carpet events, written for many magazines and has his own book, “A Guide to Quality, Taste and Style.” Erica Hartschen, coordinator of the president’s office at Drake University, mentioned some of the things that Gunn will be sharing at his upcoming lecture. “Tim will be sharing during his presentation a glimpse into his life, career and always his personal sense of style,” Hartschen said. G u n n’s l e c t u re b e gins at 7 p.m. Wednesday at Drake University’s Knapp Center. The lecture c o m m i t t e e, a l o n g w i t h Hartschen, urged anyone who is a die-hard “Project Runway” fan or is interested in hearing about the fashion industry to attend the lecture. Gunn will also be signing books and giving autographs for 45 minutes after the lecture for those who

are interested. In addition to Gunn’s lecture, the Des Moines Art Center is hosting an exhibit featuring the work of designer Roy Halston and artist Andy Warhol. The exhibit features a variety of works from art to apparel from both Halston and Warhol. Halston is a native Iowan and fashion designer who made it big in the industry. Halston is well-known for his fashionable hats, specifically the pillbox hat created for Jacqueline Kennedy to wear to her

husband’s presidential inauguration in 1961. The exhibit showcases the relationship between artist Warhol and the renowned fashion designer Halston. The Halston and War-

hol exhibit opens Friday and will run until Jan. 18 at the Anna K. Meredith Gallery in Des Moines. Both opportunities to be exposed to the fashion industr y are free to the public.

Board of Regents, Gov. Terry Branstad and ISU President Steven Leath have been some of Bruhn’s more wellknown customers. “Interestingly, I’ve been invited over to the Knoll a few times to cook for the president,” Bruhn said. “It’s always a pleasure to serve a meal for big university events or to the skyboxes in Jack Trice. It’s a step back from catering, so presentation and the room for experimenting is important for us.” Because of the amount of students ISU Dining ser ves on a daily basis, comments, both good and bad, are bound to surface. Feedback is a large cornerstone of ISU Dining, Bruhn said, so the department uses social media outlets like Twitter to communicate with students. When asked how to handle criticism, Bruhn responded, “We challenge ourselves to be the best college food program in the nation, so when I see pictures [on Twitter] of food that doesn’t look so good, I ask, ‘How can we make this better?’” ISU Dining occasionally hosts special events in its dining centers and uses social media to get students to attend. On Sept. 3, Union Drive Marketplace hosted a “Bacon Extravaganza” that featured more than 12 menu items that included bacon. The day of the extravaganza, tweets and photos flew in to ISU Dining’s Twitter from students with positive feedback from the event. “If you’re not at Union Drive tonight, you’re missing out!” ISU Dining tweeted. “We try to make these kind of events possible to keep things interesting for our students, and I think they really enjoy it,” Bruhn said. But with growing student enrollment, ISU Dining has been forced to consider how it can better outfit its facilities to serve the student population. Since Bruhn attended Iowa State in 1994, ISU Dining has added madeto-order style venues and international food choices to its dining centers, expanded retail stores and implemented a new health and nutrition program. Bruhn said discussion of increased enrollment among administrators pointed to the implementation of a new dining center in the Friley Windows area. The Friley Windows project is tentatively set to begin in 2016. “Our biggest challenge right now is experimenting to see what kind of food options we want to make available to students in that

It’s even harder now in the classrooms because the classrooms are so much bigger now,” Marquez said. “[Learning communities] open a lot of doors.” Wickert said that throughout the initial sharing processes with the other universities, the focus will remain on the success of students who may be at risk of not graduating because they do not have the support or resources they need. “In some cases, it may Across 1 Fraternal title for a fictional fox 5 Easily bamboozled 10 Former Mach 2 fliers, briefly 14 Top-rated 15 Hawaii hello 16 Butterlike spread 17 Steak cut 18 U.S.-Canada defense letters 19 With 54-Down, longtime Jeep competitor 20 Hockey player’s blade cover 22 __ Place: Butch and Sundance companion 23 Music rights gp. 24 Wonderland cake words 26 Bolivian capital 30 Ticked off 33 www help pages 36 Old vendor of cold blocks 39 French king 40 Sch. in Columbus 41 Regain, and hint to a hidden letter arrangement in 20and 59-Across and 11- and 35-Down 42 Sound system part 43 Xbox 360 rival 44 Log-on requirement

be that a student is the first one in his or her family to go to college. In that case, making the transition to university life has a lot of pieces to it,” Wickert said. “There’s a financial piece, a studying piece, lifestyle.” As a first-generation student herself, Marquez said she believes the alliance will be a tremendous benefit for students such as herself that face challenges others don’t. “Even with students t h a t a l re a d y h a v e t h a t background — where their parents are educated or

they’re familiar with higher education — even those students run into issues. Even more so for students who are underrepresented and disadvantaged because they don’t have that higher educational background,” Marquez said. “It’s an even higher risk for them to not only graduate high school and go to college but to actually stay in college and get through it.” Marquez said that while her family is always supportive of her goals, it doesn’t understand the dayto-day struggles of college

students and how to handle financial aid that low-income students will need. The University Innovation Alliance will help to create resources for those students, she said. “At the end of the day it’s about student success,” Wickert said. “We want to make sure that all students on campus have a smooth transition to university life, that they succeed in their classes, that they choose a major that they’re interested in and that they meet the requirements and graduate.”
