Lecture identifies issues of diversity Professor stresses importance of diverse teaching By Jake.Dalbey @iowastatedaily.com

G N I GETT R O F P HEL L A T N E M H T L A HE By Lindsey.Davis @iowastatedaily.com What is wrong with you? You’re such a weak person for needing help. It’s all in your head. Think of any mental health issue. Now think of a stigma that is associated with the illness. Did it take very long to think of one? Chances are slim. Mental health problems have long carried stigmas that are stubborn to dismantle, but they, like any other illness or condition, are valid and undeserving of yielding negative connotations. The mission of Iowa State’s Student Counseling Services (SCS), located on the third floor of the Student Services Building, is to “promote the positive development and mental health of ISU students and to effectively deal with student crises.” SCS provides counseling

Speaking on issues related to diversity in the college curriculum, Geneva Gay, professor of education at the University of Washington-Seattle, presented solutions to the problems on Friday. As part of a twoday development workshop titled “Expanding Diversity Perspectives: A Curriculum Workshop,” the lecture was designed speGENEVA cifically for Iowa GAY State staff and faculty members to learn more about the importance of diverse teaching methods. Gay stressed throughout the meeting that the importance of action as change often can be halted by a lack of dedication, especially the use of “awareness” when discussing diversity. “Awareness is not an active mindset, as even a racist is aware that he is racist,” Gay said. To illustrate this point, Gay mentioned the use of enrollment numbers as a way universities measure diversity, a method she believes is ineffective. “We count bodies as number crunchers, but we don’t always know what we’re talking about when using these numbers,” Gay said. “Numbers can be ambiguous, as the exact terms behind statistics can be unknown.” Gay presented cultural responsiveness as a hot topic across the world and in schools everywhere. Because of the broad use of the term, Gay sees the idea of cultural representation possibly being skewed by positions of power. “Higher powers may ask faculty to come up with their own plans for diversity representation but do not come prepared with plans of their own,” Gay said.”There’s a misuse of culture, a rape of its power and integrity.” Gay believes that due to the structure of a university being centered around learning, saying if someone wishes to help but doesn’t know how is not an acceptable excuse, as many possible routes to gain knowledge exist. On top of creating more initiatives toward an active culturally diverse curriculum, Gay sees the term of diversity swaying from specific to broad needs. “Diversity is becoming “phantomsized” like a ghost,” Gay said. “It’s there at some points but absent in others, meaning we need to give more substance to this notion.

State treasurer: Clinton is ‘for all of us’ By Alex.Connor @iowastatedaily.com Story County Democrats met Saturday for a weekend of canvassing in support of their presidential candidate of choice Hillary Clinton. The intent of the weekend was to rally supporters and act as a gentle reminder that early voting in Iowa will begin Saturday, Sept. 29, and run through Election Day. Kate Waters, Iowa press secretary for Clinton, said the focus of the event, which occurred all across the state of Iowa, was to inform the voters they contact about how, when and where they can vote early. Iowa Treasurer Michael Fitzgerald also was in attendance to get those canvassing fired up and excited about voting for Clinton this election season. Fitzgerald has been a long-time supporter of Clinton, endorsing her in July 2015 over then-opponents Vermont Sen. Bernie Sanders and Maryland Gov. Martin

O’Malley. Fitzgerald is one of Iowa’s top Democrats, and said in 2015, “Hillary Clinton’s commitment to growing our economy so that everyday Iowans can get ahead and stay ahead is what Iowa Democrats believe to our core.” Fitzgerald echoed this statement to Clinton supporters on Saturday and discussed Clinton’s plans for debt-free college, construction and infrastructure and the economy, both in the hands of Clinton and Republican nominee Donald Trump. “She’s for all of us,” Fitzgerald said, referencing Clinton. “She wants everybody to succeed, and what does that mean? Well, it means an economy that benefits everyone. To get a job and have a living wage. Equal pay for equal work. Raising the minimum wage.” According to Clinton’s website, she hopes to “launch our country’s boldest investments in infrastructure since the construction of our interstate highway system in the

National Voter Registration is Sept. 27, and the online deadline to register in Iowa is Oct. 29.

First step in election: Register to vote By Rachel.Ori @iowastatedaily.com With a little less than two months until Election Day, the time to register to vote is coming up fast. With National Voter Registration Day on Sept. 27, and the online deadline to register to vote in Iowa being Oct. 29, groups are working hard to ensure that both college students and Story County residents are hitting the ballots come November. People may register the day of the election, but preparing ahead of time can be key, and registering to vote is a simple process. Lauren Engley, senior in animal science and member of NextGen Climate Iowa, said she is going to vote in this election because “climate change is the most urgent threat facing the nation.” She said that since this is “very much an issues campaign,” every vote matters, and every vote will hold a certain amount of weight with it. Tessa Lengeling, press secretary for NextGen Climate Iowa, bounced off of that point, saying that “Iowans see firsthand how the environment is affected [by political decisions].”

DIVERSITY p1 Diversity has drifted away from specific diversity needs to just the nebulous term. If you overload the field [of diversity], you may destroy the integrity of the field. Diversity is not generic and broad but specific to needs.” In order to combat these issues, Gay presented several ideas to help strengthen diversity on campus. Among these, Gay stressed a need for colleges and their curriculums to account more for “intellectual neglect.” “We are under the illusion that when students come to college, they’ve arrived and are happy, we just leave them,” Gay said. “But there’s horror stories of prejudicial thoughts and stereotyping from students. Intellectual neglect occurs because language issues and cultural styles are different. Cultural collisions occur, as we are worried if they are mastering content, but these collisions can hurt their attempts at content mastery.” As a final note, Gay touched on the changing of college curriculums to engage in more diverse topics. “We have to stop the notion that only certain people have access to knowledge,” Gay said. Erika Skogerson, junior in integrated studio arts and kinesiology, attended the lecture as a requirement but left connected to the overall message. “My lack of importance was why I felt [the issue] was important,” Skogerson said. ”I came from a predominantly white, small school. I just haven’t experienced many of these issues. A lot of the things he said I totally connected with even though I am not a person of color. I’m glad that I came.”

She hopes that “… people will consider clean energy and the climate when they go to the ballot box.” Issues in this election also range from foreign policy to revamping America’s infrastructure and the economy, however, some are more pertinent to college students, such as Democratic presidential candidate Hillary Clinton’s debt-free college plan. Both Iowa State’s Democrats and Republicans also have been working hard this election season to make their voices heard on campus. Each side has provided materials to register to vote, helping hundreds of firsttime voters get ready for Election Day. Zach Rodgers, junior in political science and president of Iowa State University College Democrats, said he is going to vote in this election “… because it’s our right.” Rodgers continued his point, saying he “can’t just sit by and watch the other side win [because] there is so much at stake this election.” Rodgers encourages “looking at all of the options” in this campaign and to “voice your opinion and let your voice be heard.” For many young voters, they feel that their vote won’t

make an impact. However, according to Pew Research, the 2016 electorate will be the most diverse in U.S. history with 10.7 million more voters in 2016 than in 2012. Sam Fitzgerald, sophomore in pre-business and president of ISU College Republicans, echoed the statement from Rodgers about voting, saying it’s our “civic duty.” He continued by saying, “If you don’t vote, you can’t complain about not getting your way.” With Iowa already being a battleground state in the presidential election, Fitzgerald believes that, due to a “poorly received liberal candidate, it’s possible for Iowa to go red for the first time in [recent] elections.” However, he said that with a loud liberal voice on campus, he believes the university itself could lean more Democratic. With this though, Fitzgerald said he would “rather be out working” than simply “drawing in chalk.” With both parties heavily canvassing both on campus and in Story County, those actively advocating for their candidate also are trying to make voters aware of early Iowa voting, which begins Sept. 29.

DATES TO REMEMBER • National Voter Registration Day - Sept. 27 According to nationalvoterregistrationday.org, volunteers, celebrities and organizations will be out and about trying to encourage people to register. Efforts will include engaging with potential voters through the media, technology and talking to people out in public. • Early voting in Iowa - Sept. 29 to Nov. 7 Iowa voters can cast their ballot for this election season. • Voter Registration Deadline Oct. 29 This is the last day to register to vote either in person or online. The last day to vote via mail is Oct. 24. • Presidential Election - Nov. 8 This is the day of the general election and last day to vote. Voters can still register on this day, but are encouraged to do so before the aforementioned deadlines.

Kaine to visit Iowa State By Alex.Connor @iowastatedaily.com Democratic vice presidential nominee Tim Kaine will be in Ames on Monday to discuss debt-free college and the 2016 campaign. The event will take place from 2 p.m. to 3 p.m. Monday in the Great Hall of the Memorial Union, where Kaine will take the stage with his wife, Anne Holton. Doors will open at noon. Kaine and Holton will “talk about how young people can get involved in [the] campaign,” according to an event page set up for the event. He also plans to discuss how Clinton’s agenda would support students, and their plan to make college debtfree for all Americans. While neither presidential candidate has visited Iowa State directly since the Iowa caucuses, both Clinton and Republican presidential nominee Donald Trump have been campaigning across Iowa to rally voters in the battleground state. Debt-free college has been on the forefront of the Clinton campaign, and a major issue she has adopted since earning the nomination. According to her campaign website, Clinton hopes that “families with income up to $125,000 will pay no tuition at in-state, four-year public colleges and universities.” Those who are hoping to attend Kaine’s event can RSVP online. Republican vice presidential nominee Mike Pence also will be in Iowa on Monday. Those interested in attending Pence’s events can RSVP online.

Tenure rank provides safety net Prestigious position protects Iowa State professors from being fired for unjust means By Danielle.Gehr @iowastatedaily.com Iowa State, like many other institutions across the country, doesn’t take the decision of its tenured professors lightly. The university starts by taking things slow and hiring teachers as assistant professors. Each professor who is hired is put on the six-year-long tenure track and eventually evaluated by the university and nationally to see if they have earned the prestigious rank. “It’s a very comprehensive review,” said Vice President and Provost Jonathan Wickert, who is also a professor of mechanical engineering. “[It is] a review of what the faculty has done in their teaching, in their research, in their service to the university and their engagement in their profession outside of the university.” The main purpose of having a tenure track at an institution is to protect faculty from being fired without just means. When a professor is dealing with possibly controversial topics, tenure protects them from being let go for having certain

good reason, the university still can take measures to release a tenured professor. This still is not an easy task and is quite costly and timeconsuming. “We decided we do not want people to get to be a full professor and then coast. That is not the point,” said Jonathan Sturm, professor of music and president of the Faculty Senate. “You must be productive, you must be constantly challenging yourself to be better all the way through your time here.” Iowa State has policies put into place to avoid professors becoming unproductive after receiving job stability. After being tenured, professors are still put through posttenure reviews that either lead to promotion to full professor or bad annual review, which eventually could lead to demolition of duty. The tenure process puts a professor’s work through many different sets of hands. It is a process that weighs heavily on peer review and the opinion of universities and specialists from around the country. The last to review the work is the Iowa Board of Regents.

Judge goes on offensive Candidate criticizes Grassley for his obstructive partisanship By Chris.Anderson @iowastatedaily.com The race for U.S. Senate in Iowa is drawing attention as former Lt. Gov. Patty Judge goes on the offensive against her opponent and incumbent Sen. Chuck Grassley. Judge, who has been airing attack ads against Grassley since winning her primary in June, is criticizing Grassley for what she believes is obstructive partisanship and for not being an advocate for Iowan values. A glaring example of the kind of obstructionism Judge believes Grassley represents in Congress is his refusal, as chair of the Senate Judiciary Committee, to give President Barack Obama’s Supreme Court nominee Merrick Garland, a hearing. “Grassley has been holding the Supreme Court hostage, keeping them with the least number of judges since 1950,” Judge said in a call-in media conference in early September. This issue has become a focal point of Judge’s campaign, mirrored in her slogan: “This is one Judge that Chuck Grassley can’t ignore.” Judge, along with many Democrats, believe the Senate should hold a hearing for Garland and vote on his confirmation to the Supreme Court, as stated in the Constitution.

Trump disagrees with Clinton’s past and possible future impact on the economy, however, saying at his rally last Tuesday in Clive, Iowa, “The policies of Hillary Clinton have produced death and destruction overseas, and produced only failing schools, rising crime, job loss, shrinking incomes and tragic poverty at home. “1 in 5 American households do not have a single member in the labor force. Another 14 million people left the labor force entirely since 2009, and the national debt has doubled to nearly $20 trillion during the Obama Years. I am running to reverse these policies, and to create a future of prosperity for all Americans.” However, Trump has not been too specific on his plans to revamp the economy, despite telling the Economic Club of New York that he would “pay for his economic agenda in part by requiring allies to shoulder the full cost of American military resources deployed in their defense” and pledging to create 25 million jobs over the next decade, according to the New York Times.

However, in this election year, many see Judge’s establishment ties as a drawback, but she embraces them. Another issue Judge blasted Grassley on is refusing to pass legislation

“Donald Trump would put us quickly into a recession ... would cost us 33,000 jobs ... the consequences are huge,” Fitzgerald said, also calling Trump a major Republican “Wall Street kind of guy.” Fitzgerald further spoke on the GOP candidate, saying Trump is a pathological liar who has no moral compass and who is all for himself, however, Fitzgerald said that those were not his words or him saying that, but the Republican leadership saying that of their nominee. “You always hear, ‘oh, this is the most important election of our lifetime,’” Fitzgerald said. “Well, I’ve been through nine of them myself, just for my own office, and I think this is. And maybe not because of Hillary, but [because of] who she’s running against.” On the impact that Story County is providing in the election and to further pump up its efforts across Iowa this weekend, Fitzgerald thanked the crowd of about 30 volunteers for the work they are putting in to get Democrats out to vote. “What you’re doing by bringing every last Democrat, it is important ... real important,” Fitzgerald said. “We have to work. We have to drag our Democrats to the polls [and] get them to vote, we do that we win.”

allocating funds for Zika virus aid. “It’s now been 200 days since the president requested funds be allocated to fight Zika,” Judge said. Both parties have put “riders” on various bills drafted to allocate funds to Zika relief. Riders are unrelated parts of legislation that are attached to a bill to accomplish partisan issues. Some riders Republicans have attached to Zika relief legislation include cutting funding to government agencies such as

Planned Parenthood or the Environmental Protection Agency. Riders are usually attached to important pieces of legislation, like Zika relief, because politicians will be viewed negatively if they vote against such important bills. However, there have been many attempts at “clean” funding bills, free of riders, being passed. Such bills, however, have not yet passed. Judge believes she will be a less partisan-obstructionist alternative to represent Iowans in the Senate. She also believes she will be a better advocate for Iowan values. She cited her extensive experience working for Iowa when asked about how she would be a better advocate for Iowans. “I’ve never stopped working to create greater opportunities right here in Iowa,” Judge remarked. Judge also was quick to criticize her opponent with what she believes are his shortcomings for working for Iowans. “Chuck Grassley is more concerned airing negative attack ads then working to help Iowa,” Judge said. Judge did not mention, however, the numerous ads attacking Grassley available on her YouTube channel. “I believe we can go to Washington and we can put down the politics … we can start looking for solutions and listening to each other,” Judge said.

STUDENT COUNSELING SERVICES Walk-ins: Monday thru Thursday, 8 a.m. - 3 p.m. Found in Student Services Building, 3rd floor Phone: 515-294-5056

COUNSELING p1 to individuals, couples and groups. Students enrolled at Iowa State are eligible to receive counseling at SCS, and most professional services are provided to students at no cost. Courtney ClippertTreadwell, licensed psychologist and outreach coordinator at SCS, has worked at Iowa State for three years and provides counseling to students, as well as outreach to the university. As an outreach coordinator, she gives presentations to provide mental health awareness and to reduce the stigma of what counseling is. Doing outreach allows Clippert-Treadwell to connect with different organizations, classes and clubs on campus and supply information about the counseling services provided by SCS. She also hopes to break down the stigmas that are attached to mental health issues. “It takes a lot of courage and strength to come in and see a counselor,” Clippert-Treadwell said. “In my opinion, there’s nothing weak about going to do that. The stigma is that getting help means that you’re weak or something is wrong with you. I definitely want to destigmatize that. Clippert-Treadwell said more students are using counseling services provided by SCS, and unlike other universities she’s worked at, students at Iowa State take advantage of the services. She said on average, SCS has seen 75 to 100 new students each week since school began, and that doesn’t include pre-existing clients. “It’s hopeful that more students are willing to seek help,” Clippert-Treadwell said. “They’re hearing about us more and we’re connecting more. We’re trying to reduce the stigma.” Common misconceptions about the counseling services at SCS are that it will take months to get in and there’s not a lot of counselors available there

to help. Both perceptions are wrong. “What’s great about our walk-in services is that you’re seen that day,” Clippert-Treadwell said. You don’t have to wait for an appointment. In addition, SCS hired six new staff psychologists beginning this fall semester, which means there are now 15 full-time counselors, three postdoctoral fellows, four pre-doctoral interns and numerous graduate assistants and practicum students providing services to ISU students. SCS is open from 8 a.m. to 5 p.m. Monday through Friday, and current walkin hours are from 8 a.m. to 3 p.m. Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday. Students who have never used SCS services can go to the office during walk-in hours and receive a walkin triage that day. SCS asks that students plan to be there for an hour and a half to two hours. The Student Counseling Service specializes in shortterm therapy and offers a variety of counseling areas. Because of the short-term therapy model, many students feel they attain their desired goals in eight sessions or less. Individual counseling is for those who struggle with any number of concerns. These concerns include, but are not limited to, relationship problems, stress, body image and sexual identity. Clippert-Treadwell believes mental health issues need more awareness and understanding. She has found that the college years are some of the most difficult and challenging times in one’s life, and transitioning to college may spark new mental health issues. “It’s an honor for me to work with students throughout possibly some of the most difficult times of their lives,” ClippertTreadwell said. “Often, a person is trying to find their own identity in college personally, professionally and academically. That’s very rewarding for me to be on that journey with them.”

While a woman is running for president of the United States and women are now able to join the elite Army Rangers, columnist Lawson believes the country still has a way to go in enforcing equal rights between men and women and eliminating traditional gender roles.

Despite progress, women still face stereotypes in U.S. By Angelica.Lawson @iowastatedaily.com

woman is running for president of the United States, U.S. women won more gold medals at the 2016 Olympics than men, women can now join the elite Army Rangers and, to top it off, Barbie now has a realistic body. 2016 already has brought victories for women, and yet in such an exciting time to be a woman, we are still expected to follow traditional gender roles. If you own a TV, computer or phone, chances are that you have seen some of the ridiculous headlines and stories about how presidential candidate Hillary Clinton needs to smile more. Reince Priebus, the chairman of the Republican Party, tweeted about how Clinton needs to smile more when talking about our nation’s military. I don’t know how one is supposed to sport a carefree smile when talking about military policy. It’s obnoxious that women are still being told to smile and look pretty. Discussing military policy hardly seems like the appropriate time for

an idiotic smile. Yet, because Clinton is a woman, it was more than expected by some men. This is only one of the numerous instances where women have been looked down upon because of gender roles. And one of the most oppressive of these roles is the expectation that women want to have children. Comedian Chelsea Handler has a lot to say about choosing a childfree lifestyle. Being a woman who chooses to not have children is OK. You can still live a fulfilling life minus the kiddos. Handler gave us a public service announcement about the benefits of not having children in her new Netflix series “Chelsea.” Not having children is one of the gender taboos that seems to be sticking around. Women are supposed to want to have children and be a homemaker for their families. Choosing to not have children shouldn’t leave you open scrutiny. When a man chooses to not have children, he is stereotypically viewed as a bachelor and the world doesn’t stop to second guess his decision, but when a woman chooses to not have children, something must be wrong with her. Some may suggest that she will change her mind once she meets the “one” and falls in love, as if the notion that a woman would actually choose to go through life without children is obscene and only an option when she is single.

Stop berating women who have chosen to not have children. It’s a woman’s choice of whether to become a mother and one that should be respected no matter which side you are on. Women, unfortunately still do not receive the same amount of compensation as their male co-workers. The pay gaps between men, women and minorities needs to close. It’s a true shame that our country has struggled to enforce the Equal Pay Act, which is supposed to ensure that men and women in the same workplace receive equal pay for equal work. Since there is still a pay gap and women are still fighting to break through that glass ceiling, the government needs to step in and be stricter in enforcing the act. There is no reason that a woman who has the same level of experience and education as a male co-worker should be compensated less than him. It’s mind-blowing that with every step forward women have taken, we still are subjected to such stereotypes. As our country has evolved, so have its ideas of what men and women can do. The idea of traditional gender roles no longer applies to a nation that sees men and women as equals. Breaking down these outdated stereotypes of what it means to be a woman is happening every day.

LETTER TO THE EDITOR

More than one way to serve your country By Sarah Ashby Sixth year in political science This is my response to people who say that anyone not standing for the national anthem is disrespectful to veterans and soldiers, that Colin Kaepernick should have to prove all of the good he is doing to “fix what is wrong with society” and that instead of protesting, he should join the military. First off, I would like to say that I think it’s great that there are people willing to fight for their country. That is awesome and I have nothing but respect for them. That is also their prerogative and choice. That choice is not for everyone and that is perfectly acceptable and people should not be shamed or called out because they choose to do something else with their lives. One thing that angers me to no end, regarding (some) military members’ families and

friends, is that they put soldiers and the military at the top of the pyramid of heroes and spit on anyone who chooses to take a different path. That is not OK. Military members are no better or more honorable than teachers, social workers or politicians (real ones, not corrupt media stars and bigoted partisan jerks.) Just because their lives aren’t immediately on the line doesn’t mean that they aren’t making just as much of a difference as a soldier, if not more. Secondly, I would like to take the time to point out that the American flag and the national anthem do not only represent the military; they represent America as a whole, and for anyone to minimize their representation to just the military is just as offensive to me as anything. It is a very conceited notion that someone not standing for the national anthem is somehow immediately and directly dis-

respecting the military. The flag and anthem do not belong to the military and their families. This protest literally has nothing to do with the military. So please stop trying to make it about them. It’s not. Period. Thirdly, I’d like to give you a little bit of a history lesson. Have you ever read the second verse of the “Star-Spangled Banner”? It’s about killing slaves who escaped and fought for the British because they were offered freedom for their service. It’s disgusting. The fact that any African-American stands for this same song is beyond me. Lastly, why on Earth should Kaepernick have to prove to you, or any other white person for that matter, that he is doing everything he possibly can to “help fix what is wrong with society” when neither he, nor his race, did anything wrong to contribute to this “problem.” And by this, I surely hope that

you mean the systematic oppression of his people and the hate-charged racism and inequality that still exists today. Why is that his job? No. It is our job as the oppressors to fix this. His ancestors were tortured, killed, raped, enslaved and oppressed for 300 years! Things only started to get somewhat better in the last 50 or so years. So why can’t he just enjoy his good life that he rightfully earned? Why do you expect African-Americans to have to continue fighting when they have been fighting for over 300 years? Why does it have to be their job to fix what we broke? And why the heck would Kaepernick ever join the military to fight for a country that won’t even protect him at home? That is frankly a ridiculous expectation. He is speaking out. He is doing his job. Now it is our job to make it right.

The Standing Rock Sioux Tribe in South Dakota has some breathing room after the Obama administration halted the construction of the Dakota Access Pipeline temporarily. But let’s not get this wrong. This fight is about more than oil, jobs and the environment. It is about tribal rights. The pipeline that is currently under construction starts in the oil fields of North Dakota, crosses South Dakota and Iowa to refineries in Illinois. About 470,000 barrels of oil a day will flow through this pipeline once completed and create an estimated 8,000 to 12,000 jobs along the way, according to the financing company Energy Transfer Partners, ETP. The current route has the pipeline passing near, but not on, the Standing Rock Sioux reservation. The issue that arises is that historically, Native American tribes lived on lands outside the boundaries of their current reservations. The Standing Rock Sioux Tribe is no different. It claimed that the Army Corps of Engineers, which is tasked with approving the route, didn’t take the time to adequately analyze the areas. Specifically, the Corps disregarded ancient tribal burial sites and is putting historic, Native American artifacts in danger. Moreover, the Standing Rock Sioux tribe sees the land as sacred, even though it is outside of the reservation. Looking beyond the environmental issues and economic boost local economies could see, we find a more troubling issue — the disregard for Native American rights that has plagued the United States since its founding. Recently, the Standing Rock Sioux Tribe requested, and received, help from other Native American tribes across the country. This show of support has further elevated the issue of the relations between private companies, the federal government and area tribes. It shows the failure of both ETP and the Corps to take into account the opinions and rights of indigenous people. However, the current halt on construction by the Obama administration is the right move. The Corps should carefully, and with the input of area tribes, review its work and approval of the pipeline. Beyond the pipeline, this movement has drawn attention to the plight many indigenous people across the country and the globe face. The native tribes in the United States are too often overlooked and marginalized. The issue of the Dakota Access Pipeline reflects a broader problem of the federal government neglecting native peoples. Oil and natural gas pipelines are the safest way to transport the products from source to refinement when they don’t leak. But the production of pipelines and the jobs that they may create cannot come at the expense of the rights of the Native American tribes that occupied the land centuries before the rest of us. While the Obama administration has given the Standing Rock Sioux Tribe some breathing room, it is now up to the Army Corps of Engineers to ensure that the rights of all stakeholders are heard and respected.

Redshirt junior quarterback Joel Lanning drops back to pass during Iowa State’s season opener against Northern Iowa on Sept. 3 at Jack Trice Stadium. Lanning will remain the starter under center.

Lanning remains starting QB By Brian.Mozey @iowastatedaily.com Iowa State football fans saw the true definition of dual quarterbacks this past weekend, but one stepped up when it was needed. Iowa State (0-3, 0-1 Big 12) dropped its first road and Big 12 game this season against TCU (2-1, 1-0 Big 12) on Saturday 41-20. The Cyclones may have lost the football game, but coach Matt Campbell saw a two-quarterback system that hasn’t been used much in the Iowa State football program in recent years. “I think it’s a great situa-

tion to have two guys that you really believe you can have success with,” Campbell said. “Both guys like each other. Both guys help each other on the sidelines. I think that’s good for our football team.” Entering the TCU game, the biggest question was how many snaps would quarterback Joel Lanning take before backup Jacob Park came in to play? The answer was 13 plays and two drives. Lanning was the quarterback for eight of the drives, while Park was under center for six drives. Even though the two quarterbacks seemed to split snaps throughout the en-

tire game, Lanning proved that he deserves the starting spot with his performance, Campbell said. “I thought Joel [Lanning] played really well today,” Campbell said. “I thought that’s the best he’s played, at least consistently, in the two games prior to [this game].” Lanning completed 12of-21 passes for 127 yards. He also made strides on the ground, rushing for 31 yards and two touchdowns. On the other hand, Park went 7-for-15 with 90 passing yards. He rushed for 2 yards on six attempts. Lanning not only showed

that he deserved the starting quarterback position statistically but also proved that he is capable of leading scoring drives, heading both touchdown drives for the Cyclones on Saturday. “It is what it is,” Lanning told the Des Moines Register. “You’ve got to be ready to play whenever. You have to go and play whenever your name is called. “It helps to have a little rhythm, [but] it is what it is. You have to expect whatever.” One of the drawbacks of a two-quarterback system is that there’s a small amount of time to get into a rhythm before the quarterback is taken out of the

game. It can be hard for the quarterback to be in the game for a few drives then be taken out, especially at a position where having rhythm is important. For Lanning and Park, they’ve been switching in and out during practice all week long, so the two have seen this type of pattern. After Saturday’s game, Campbell told the media that he has two quarterbacks who can benefit the team. This means that Iowa State fans might see the two-quarterback system at home this upcoming weekend when Iowa State takes on San Jose State.

Campbell said Lanning will be the starter, but the two-quarterback system will be used throughout practice this week. The main thing Lanning and Park need to work on this week to prepare for San Jose State is to get into rhythm on the field and continue that rhythm even if they’re on the sidelines for a couple drives. “From the outside looking in you think there’s two quarterbacks and you think it’s a bad thing,” Campbell said. “I don’t think it’s a bad thing when you got two guys that work really hard in practice and at least deserve the right to play.”

Hockey still evaluating after tryouts By Mary.Rominger @iowastatedaily.com An energized and ample Cyclone Hockey fan base was granted a high-scoring and successful weekend that kicked off preseason play for the Cyclones. The team sported two different rosters as the evaluation process for making the Division I and Division III rosters went through the week and into the weekend in a double-header with the semi-professional Huntsville Havoc. The Cyclones handily defeated the Havoc 9-2 on Friday, then again on Saturday, 7-2. The offensive depth shined, with goal scoring dispersed among 12 different players over the course of two nights. Although the Cyclones put on a solid showcase, business behind the bench extended much further than what was on paper, after the weekend’s performance. The showcase The Cyclones and their Southern Professional Hockey League opponent, the Havoc, had similar situations going on in their locker rooms. The two exhibition games were beneficial to both organizations, with Huntsville hosting its free agent tryout camp in Ames and the Cyclones holding tryouts for the Division I team. While the purpose of the exhibition was for the Cyclones to evaluate individual players and their levels of play, Iowa State still put forth a structured and commanding game. Right off the bat, the Havoc contested a physical

and rough style of play. But the furthest thing from the Cyclones’ playbook was to retaliate or take the attention away from the focus at hand. “We were playing more of a tough team,” said forward Eric Baldwin. “We didn’t want to retaliate and get in our heads.” Cyclone players were under a high-pressured system through the entire weekend, attempting to showcase their talents to the coaching staff. Freshman Griffin Mason remained poised enough through the weekend’s pressure to net three highlight-worthy goals. “I tried to stay relaxed, I know what I can do out there,” Mason said. “I just had to go out there and prove it to the coaches. I had a pretty solid game and I think all of the guys had a solid game tonight.” The coaching staff From a coaching point of view, coach Jason Fairman and assistant coach Andrew Callaghan weren’t too concerned with the Cyclones’ offensive game. “It’s great that they scored, but I’m not reading into if someone gets a couple goals. I’ve done this too long to see that,” Fairman said. “I couldn’t even tell you who scored tonight. That’s how important other factors are to me.” The system of Cyclone Hockey is the key factor in which players will be compatible with the level of play in Division I. This is especially important with the evaluation of the rookie players. “They have to learn how to play within our system,”

Lyn Keren/Iowa State Daily

The Cyclone Hockey team celebrates after scoring a point in the first period of the team’s exhibition game against the Huntsville Havoc on Friday. The Cyclones defeated Huntsville 9-2 Friday and 7-2 Saturday. The team treated the weekend matches as tryouts for positions on the Division I team.

Fairman said. “We are very system-oriented and structured and that has led to our success. “The ones that learn it quickest are the ones that will get more ice time.” Now that the weekend is all said and done, decisionmaking from the coaching staff will revolve around players’ individual perfor-

mances until the rosters are finalized. At this point in the season, it has been mostly about individual players and not necessarily a team element. But from here on out, that will no longer be the case. “I didn’t coach much,” Fairman said. “I gave a few pointers, but I wanted to

see what their natural game was. They’ll get the full effect of the coaching next week from our staff.” Evaluation will continue into next weekend with some players being on the cusp of the Division I team. Although many positions are up in the air, Fairman is confident in the team’s goaltending status.

“I can go on record at this point and say that our top two goaltender spots will be the returners from last year,” Fairman said. “The third spot is going to be a battle that will continue.” The Cyclones’ preseason action will continue at 7:30 p.m. Friday when the Missouri State Ice Bears come to Ames.

Berta’s serve garners success By Ben.Visser @iowastatedaily.com Branen Berta has a serve that would make former Boston Red Sox knuckleball pitcher Tim Wakefield proud. Berta, Iowa State’s newest libero, led the Big 12 in aces per set at one point last season. At the end of the season, she finished fifth in the conference with .30 aces per set. Most players who have high service numbers are jump servers, but Berta has a knuckleball-like serve. Coach Christy JohnsonLynch has called Berta the best serving libero Iowa State has ever had. That’s high praise considering Iowa State’s rich history of liberos. But Berta’s serve wasn’t always her strong suit. When she came to Iowa State, it was just an average jumpfloat serve. “Her freshman year her serve, I thought, was very average,” Johnson-Lynch said. “I think she embraced getting better at it and developed a lot over the course of a year. By the time she became a sophomore, she became one of, if not our best, server.”

Berta worked with assistant coach Dawn Sullivan to improve her serve. “The big thing was my toss,” Berta said. “A lot of times when my serve was just mediocre I kept tossing the ball behind me. It would cause me to bring my elbow back and hit a little bit behind me so the ball would go higher and even potentially out. “[My toss] had to be just perfect, right in front of my right foot, right in front of my serving arm. Not too high, not too low.” When a person watches the junior serve, it looks like any other jump-float serve. But it’s the details that separate it. The way she hits the ball, where she hits it, how fast she hits it and the consistency she has serving it all make her serve successful. “She hits it the same way every time,” Johnson-Lynch said. “She hits it very flat, she doesn’t put any spin on the ball — that’s really the key. “When you watch her ball come off of her hand it really has no spin, so that allows it to move. And it comes off fast. She’s got a good arm and it comes out at a high velocity. She’s got that nice combination of the way she

contacts it and how hard she hits it.” Berta hits the ball with a very flat hand and right in the center of the ball. When she contacts the ball, she pops her hand. “I don’t know [how I developed it],” Berta said. “I think it was just the pop of my hand. … It makes the ball move really well.

Volleyball snaps losing streak by sweeping Missouri State By Sean.Sears @iowastatedaily.com and Ben.Visser @iowastatedaily.com Iowa State ended its twogame losing streak Saturday afternoon, defeating Missouri State in three sets (25-12, 25-21, 25-22) in the Marquette Invitational in Milwaukee, Wisconsin. The Cyclones (7-4, 0-0 Big 12) were anticipating the Bears as one of their toughest opponents, if not the toughest, during this difficult stretch of road games. However, Iowa State handled Missouri State with ease. Offensively, Iowa State had an evenly distributed effort, with senior Ciara Capezio leading the way with 10 kills. Sophomore Jess Schaben and senior Morgan Kuhrt each added 9 kills as well. On Friday, the Cyclones weren’t as productive, as they were swept by Marquette (25-22, 25-21, 2515). Iowa State couldn’t find its offense, hitting .096 for the match. Marquette had 10 blocks to slow down the Cyclones’ offense. Middle blocker Alexis Conaway was the only Iowa State player who had a strong offensive showing. She recorded nine kills while hitting .421. Schaben, who usually leads the offense, had 20 opportunities, but only recorded three kills. She hit -.100 for the match. On the other side of the court, Marquette’s go-to outside hitter, Taylor Louis,

floats almost. When a passer is passing it … I’ve heard that it kind of moves up on them so they don’t know exactly where it’s going to end up, or where to put their arms to pass it. “The contact is something that really helps my serve and helps it float and move up on passers.” Almost every server in the NCAA tries to hit a jump-

float serve with no spin. Most of them can get it to work sometimes, but no one has had the same success as Berta. The ball dips and darts all over the place, making it nearly impossible to judge exactly where it’ll end up. Passers have to have good reaction time, good handeye coordination and know exactly where to put their

arms. “I think everyone serves like her — a jump-float,” Johnson-Lynch said. “But you have to hit it very, very well. That’s what she does, and that’s what’s unique. It’s not easy to do. If it was easy I think a lot more people would have that many aces per game. I think it’s just the way she contacts the ball that makes it unique.”

Iowa State sophomore pitcher Savannah Sanders was nearly unhittable in her team’s 16-5 win over Iowa Western Community College on Friday. Sanders threw six shutout innings against the Reivers at the Cyclone Sports Complex. The only baserunner she allowed in the first five innings came courtesy of a hit batter in the top of the first. “I could tell when I was on the mound that my team had my back, and they were cheering me on from the dugout,” Sanders said. In the fourth inning, two Iowa State relief pitchers gave up three runs on four walks and a single. Sanders re-entered the game and got out of a bases-loaded jam with Iowa State trailing 3-0. “She’s a good pitcher who wants to be great,” said coach Jamie Trachsel. “That’s exciting. She’s been putting in the work. Getting her on the mound, seeing her presence and seeing her compete is exactly what we were hoping to see and what we thought we would see.” The Cyclones’ offense finally came alive in the bottom of the fourth inning as it scored two runs. In the fifth, Iowa State took a lead it wouldn’t surrender. The Cyclones exploded for five runs in the fifth,

Johnson’s triple, which came with two outs, drove in three runs. “The offense really sunk in and got in a groove,” Sanders said. “We weren’t nervous, we were just doing what our part was.” In the sixth inning, Iowa State tacked on seven more runs to take a 14-3 lead. Iowa Western finally got a hit off of Sanders in the top of the sixth with backto-back singles to start off the inning. Sanders settled down and retired the next three batters in order to get out of the inning unscathed. Iowa Western added two runs off of reliever Emma Hylen over the next three frames, but the game was never in jeopardy after the 12-run onslaught in the fifth and sixth innings. “The kids came out and did exactly what we wanted

them to do,” Trachsel said. Johnson caught every inning for the Cyclones and had a good showing in her debut behind the plate. Even though Iowa Western isn’t the same level of competition as the Big 12, Johnson said she thought there was still a lot to gain from Friday’s game. “With our team, we don’t care who we’re playing, we don’t care where we’re at, we don’t care who’s in the stands,” Johnson said. “We come out and we handle us. “These first two weeks we’ve been putting in a lot of work, paying attention to a lot of detail. To be able to come out here and express all of what we’ve been working for, it’s relieving.” All in all, it was a team effort that helped the Cyclones win by double digits. “Everyone was playing a role and that role was important,” Sanders said.
