e’re now in the home stretch — in just two months, voters will head to the polls and cast their votes for president and races up and down the ballot. And while the last year and a half has been unpredictable, from the rise of Donald Trump, a serious challenge to Hillary Clinton and what some say is the demise of political discourse, the usual campaign tactics, messages and themes are falling into place ahead of voting on Nov. 8. “We normally say that the races pick up after Labor Day,” said Tim Hagle, a professor of political science at the University of Iowa. “I still think that will be the case, though I’ve seen some suggest otherwise. It may be that pretty much everyone knows Clinton and Trump, and we here in Iowa have seen our share of visits and ads already, but I think there are still a lot of people who don’t pay too much attention until after the holiday, particularly those who are registered no party.” Hagle is right on visits — almost two dozen candidates crisscrossed the state ahead of the February Iowa Caucus, which gave us winners Ted Cruz and Clinton. Now, Trump and Clinton — the two most unpopular candidates in modern history, ac-
cording to public opinion polls — compete for votes in swing states, while third-party candidates hope to make a dent in poll numbers. And Iowans can expect more visits even as polls in Iowa show a close race between Trump and Clinton, both of whom already have made campaign stops since securing the nomination. The latest polling in Iowa is much closer than some other states that usually get attention. A CBS News/ YouGov poll in recent weeks had Trump on top at 44 percent and Clinton at 39 percent. Libertarian nominee Gary Johnson had 8 percent and Green Party nominee Jill Stein had 1 percent. National polls outside of Iowa have shown Clinton ahead in recent weeks, although Trump is trending up within the last several days. “We are just about guaranteed to get way beyond the usual level of being sick and tired about campaign ads,” said Mack Shelley, chairman and professor in the political science department at Iowa State. “[The Real Clear Politics average] now has Trump up by a bit less than one point in Iowa. If other states start to drift in his direction, Iowa could well become a focal point for attack ads that impugn both candidates’ veracity and will drag us way deep into the political septic tank.” Clinton has massively outspent Trump thus far in the advertisement column, but battleground state
campaigning will continue to play a large role in the candidates’ strategy going forward. Clinton has spent nearly $75 million on general election ads, while Trump is way behind at $7.7 million, according to an analysis by NBC News and Advertising Analytics. Johnson also has gone on the air in several states in recent weeks. Along with Iowa, several states will likely decide who gets to 270 electoral votes on election night. “Many of the other battleground states are relatively close, but it’s worth noting that in none of those states does either candidate have a majority support, so they all are pretty much up for grabs,” Shelley said. The reason? Johnson and Stein are polling in at least the single digits, and in some cases, Johnson cracks 10 percent support. The former Republican governor always had libertarian leanings, but after dropping out of the 2012 GOP primary, he officially became a Libertarian and ended up receiving about 1 percent nationally — more than a million votes. Johnson is touting himself and running mate Bill Weld, also a former Republican governor, as an alternative to the two-party system and a choice that “most Americans” can agree with — fiscally conservative economically and socially liberal. Stein is calling for a “Green New Deal,” running to the left of
Clinton and trying to sway disillusioned Democrats who may have supported Vermont Sen. Bernie Sanders. Johnson also is looking forward to the Commission on Presidential Debates releasing the names for the debates. If a candidate can reach 15 percent in polls, he or she can debate in front of Americans on television. And Johnson concedes if he is not on the debate stage, his chances of competing through November are slim. Along with Iowa and the effect of third parties, Shelley and Steffen Schmidt, a university professor of political science at Iowa State, are keeping an eye on several other states that could go either way, including Ohio, Florida, Nevada, North Carolina, Missouri, Georgia, Arizona, Pennsylvania and Wisconsin.
DEBATE PREP The process of preparing for the three presidential debates is usually down in the details every cycle, but the talk this cycle has been about how Clinton will prepare for Trump, who has defied all rules usually associated with politics. “Predicting what could be regarded as a random event is really difficult, but Clinton can prepare best by being trained to respond in
ELECTION p4
Story County GOP opens new campaign hub By Travis.Charlson @iowastatedaily.com The Republicans of Story County are revving up their campaigning efforts ahead of November’s election, opening a “Victory Office” Tuesday to serve as the nucleus for state and local campaigns. Local volunteers, officials and community members gathered in the new digs at 1421 South Bell St. for the ribbon cutting, where candidates spoke to those in attendance about the importance of the volunteers’ roles in local elections. “We have a lot of critical local races and so that’s what we as a county party are here for,” said Brett Barker, Story County GOP chairman. “We’re here to provide them support with volunteers, support with material and mailings and just coordinating and helping them get their message out. “We need as much support at the local level as we can.” The location’s purpose is to coordinate volunteers and organize events and campaign efforts around Ames. It serves as a jumping off point for local candidates. The office gives local Republicans something to be excited about in anticipation of the looming elections, Barker said. “This office is a critical piece of our efforts here in the county for the fall,” Barker said. “We’re really excited to have this space available to us. One, to get people excited about
the election and hear from our candidates, and also to help us fundraise too, so we can get their message out.” Sondra Childs-Smith, who is challenging state Rep. Beth Wessel-Kroeschell, D-Ames, said students are a big part of elections in Ames. “Things are looking pretty positive,” Childs-Smith said. “We’re trying to target Iowa State students. [We want] to register them, and register them in this county instead of where they are from. I think that will give us a really nice base.” While the political spotlight has been trained on the state and presidential races, Rick Sanders, Story County Board of Supervisors chairman, stressed that a lot is at stake at the local level too. “This is going to be an election unlike anything we’ve ever seen,” Sanders said. “From top to bottom, all the way through, there are lots and lots of opportunities if we work as hard as we can work to make sure we’re turning out those voters likely to support those things we believe in. “Every phone call matters, every door knock matters.” The key now, officials said, is to coordinate those pivotal volunteer efforts. “I’m always amazed at the time and dedication that people put into this operation and these headquarters,” said David Deyoe, state representative from District 49. “As a candidate, you’re so thankful for the volunteers that help your campaign and everyone’s campaign.”

Iowa State will request at the Board of Regents meeting $100 million in state appropriations for a new Veterinary Diagnostic Lab within the College of Veterinary Medicine complex. The Board of Regents will meet Wednesday and Thursday.
ISU looks to add new Vet Diagnostic Lab By Jenna.Hrdlicka @iowastatedaily.com Among topics to be proposed at the Board of Regents meeting on Wednesday and Thursday at the University of Iowa is a request for $100 million in state appropriations for a new Veterinary Diagnostic Lab (VDL). The current VDL is a laboratory located in the College of Veterinary Medicine, southeast of Jack Trice Stadium, that “[provides] comprehensive and cutting-edge diagnostic services agents, [delivers] accessible, timely, accurate, valid and consistent test results, [detects and identifies] emerging domestic and foreign animal disease, [leads] efforts in disease surveillance and eradication, [develops] state-of-theart diagnostic tools and technique,” and more, according to the VDL mission statement. “The VDL is the only facility of its kind in the entire state of Iowa,” said John McCarroll, executive director of university relations. “It’s not only important for Iowa State University,
but it is important for the entire animal industry. Producers, owners, farmers — across the state of Iowa.” The proposal is a request for the board to put forward a five-year, $100 million allocation from the state of Iowa for construction of the new lab, as one of its capital improvement requests. If approved, the funding would start in the fiscal year 2018, which is the year that begins July 2017. “Right now, the VDL is incorporated within the College of Veterinary Medicine, which raises concerns about biosecurity because you have animals being treated near this highly-sophisticated laboratory where they are treating and investigating diseases,” McCarroll said. A final location for the proposed new lab has not yet been determined, but it will be located within the College of Veterinary Medicine complex to “insure access and collaboration with other Veterinary Medicine units,” said Katherine Gregory, senior vice president for university services. If approved, the current lab
would continue to be used during the construction period. Once the project is completed, the former lab will be renovated and used as added research lab space, McCarroll said. “This [proposal] is important to students, as well as all Iowans, because many students might be educated in VetMed, or biology, or any number of disciplines, and might eventually work in the Vet Diagnostic Laboratory,” he said. When the current VDL facility opened in 1976, there were 11 faculty and 20 staff members working there. Now, according to Anne Krapfl in an article for Inside Iowa State, there are 25 faculty and 120 technical staff working in the samesized space. The new lab would not only address space issues, but also would meet current biosafety and biocontainment requirements. If approved, this $124-million, multi-year project is planned to be funded with the $100 million from state appropriations, $20 million from private gifts and $4 million from university funds, Krapfl said in the article.

A speaker at the Sustaining Pipeline Workshop works with a small group Tuesday in the South Ballroom of the Memorial Union.
‘Sustaining the Academic Pipeline’ By Danielle.Gehr @iowastatedaily.com During the first workshop in a series of five, three professors discussed ways for graduate students of color to transition into faculty member positions. The series is called Sustaining the Academic Pipeline and is meant to help graduate students and faculty of color gain tenure track positions. Brian Burt, Shannon Coleman and Sarah Rodriguez, the speakers for this particular workshop, all started the event by speaking about their own experience moving through higher education. “I think that by hearing our journeys, which I think are all a little bit different ... we hope that you will all be inspired to think about your own journey and to think about the experiences that you’re having no matter what level you’re at,” said Sarah Rodriguez, an assistant professor in the school of education. Some of these experiences in-
volved a mentor of some kind along the way who led the speakers to find their career path and become motivated to move up in their field. “[A] faculty member modeled for me a life I didn’t even know existed,” said Burt, an assistant professor in the school of education. “This mysterious thing called being a professor. I would just see her coming in dressed all fancy. She had all her books in one hand. She would have the pleasant office [with] the open door … that planted the early seeds for me becoming a faculty member.” Coleman, an assistant professor in the school of food science and human nutrition, discussed what it was like not having the traditional teaching assistant experience and mainly serving as a guest speaker when getting her Ph.D. at Colorado State University. “I told people at the church, that I attended in Colorado, that served as one of my classrooms,” Coleman said. “I was a Sunday School teacher for little kids, so if you can
handle little kids, you can handle big, grown kids.” Throughout the workshop, participants were encouraged to think about where they want to see themselves in the future. About halfway through the event, everyone was split into three groups, where they discussed more intimately what their future plans may be and how they can achieve their goals. Eulanda Sanders, the Donna R. Danielson professor in textiles and clothing, was one of five women who made the event possible. “A diverse and inclusive faculty on campus also helps our student body [become more] diverse and inclusive too,” Sanders said. Thelma Harding, a coordinator of graduate recruitment and retention, was another woman who made the event possible. “We are looking for these discussions to have some impact on graduate students of color, as well as faculty of color, [and show them] there is a path that I can follow,” Harding said.
The workshop came into discussion last spring after finding that there were dwindling numbers in students of color moving up to faculty positions. “Sustaining the academic pipeline is an issue,” Harding said. “Fewer and fewer of our graduate students of color are going on to faculty positions. We need to be aware of that. … We’re hoping that these workshops, or the people that are going to be facilitating these workshops, will at least give you some knowledge about what’s happening.” The event concluded with an opportunity to ask questions and network to build mentoring relationships. This was the first in a series of five workshops made possible by a grant received from the Women’s and Diversity Grants Program. Monic Behnken, Gloria JonesJohnson, Tera Jordan, Harding and Sanders were the women who received the grant and made the series possible.
Business College offers entrepreneurship major By Jenna.Hrdlicka @iowastatedaily.com Catering to the rising interest in entrepreneurial studies, the College of Business has added entrepreneurship as a new undergraduate major and Ph.D this year. “When it comes to entrepreneurship, Iowa State is the place to be,” College of Business Dean David Spalding said in a news release. “Our Ph.D. program in entrepreneurship [began] this fall, which is only the eighth stand-alone program in the country, and the only one in Iowa. “Our undergraduate program, the first at a public
university in Iowa, will be in the university catalog beginning in the fall 2017. However, students can begin the program this academic year.” The process of offering entrepreneurship as an undergraduate major was conducted by a task force that included various faculty members from the College of Business. Judi Eyles, assistant director of the Iowa State Pappajohn Center for Entrepreneurship, participated on the task force as a representative of the Pappajohn Center. “[The decision to add this major] was really based on the demand and drives of the students,” Eyles said.
JOB FAIR
“We have had entrepreneurship courses at Iowa State for 20 years, but there are a number of business students who see themselves going to run a family business or going to work for a smaller company as opposed to a larger corporation, and a growing number of students who have intentions of starting and running their own businesses.” Students who want to pursue this as their career instead of just participating in programs or taking a couple of courses were the driving force behind the creation of the entrepreneurship major. About 20 years ago, Iowa State began offering entre-
preneurship as a minor, and at the time, was one of the first two schools in the country to offer an interdisciplinary minor in entrepreneurship, Eyles said. “Back then, it just didn’t make sense to offer a major in entrepreneurship — today it does,” she said. “It is certainly a rising trend, and here at Iowa State, we are seeing a number of students in the business college [who have decided] that’s what they want to do and that’s what they want to study.” The new major offers classes catered to the needs of entrepreneurs. “If you took a finance course, it would be very different from if you took an entrepreneurial finance
course,” Eyles said. “The content will be more focused on a smaller, more entrepreneurial business.” While there may be some overlap with the content taught in other management courses due to the similar focus on running a business, the entrepreneurship major will allow for more entrepreneur-specific courses such as entrepreneurial marketing, corporate entrepreneurship, entrepreneurial finance, opportunity recognition and entrepreneurship theory. “If you were going to graduate with a management major and try to start your own company, you may be equipped to do that, but you [also] may not be,”
Eyles said. Many entrepreneurship students end up working at small companies, where it is important to have knowledge of all aspects of the business, Eyles said. This includes knowing every aspect of the company, including how the company got started, how it makes its money, etc. The new entrepreneurship major will ensure students are learning all of these business aspects regarding small businesses. “[It will] give students who have that desire to be in a smaller company or on their own a broader understanding of starting and running a company,” Eyles said.

ClubFest, originally scheduled for Wednesday, has been postponed until Monday due to weather. The event was postponed as potential storms and rain are in the forecast, said George Micalone, director of student activities and assistant director at the Memorial Union. The event is being moved to Monday in the Great Hall and adjacent ballrooms. There will be limited space, so organizations that plan to participate will have to fill out another registration form. The new registration form will be available at noon Wednesday.

UChicago letter falls flat on First Amendment

People who are offended by artists who tattoo animals have the opportunity to act against how livestock is treated before it reaches the slaughterhouse. Columnist Lawson suggests trying humane meat and sending a message to commercial farmers saying you will choose a better, less guilty, meat choice.
Tattooing Animals How should we treat livestock before the slaughterhouse? By Angelica.Lawson @iowastatedaily.com
A
nimals have feelings and build their own relationships. They are not mindless creatures like people dumb them down to be in order to relieve themselves of how they treat animals before they are made kitchen-ready. For many people, the thought of tattooing a live animal for the sake of art leaves a bad taste in their mouth. I was in an art class, and one of the artists we were introduced to was a man who did a live art piece tattooing live pigs before displaying them. The room erupted in gasps of disbelief. The students I was sitting with could not believe such a heinous act went on in the name of art. Not a single person seemed to make the connection that these animals were already going to die, probably because you were going to eat them. Pigs were a part of his art. They had
a greater purpose than being your dinner. The entire body of work is titled “Art Farm” by artist Wim Delvoye, who tattoos pigs before putting them on for display. Once they were dead, he displayed the skins. When you see semitrucks carting around crammed pigs on the interstate do you gasp in disbelief? Or have you come to expect to see such cruelty? We oftentimes become desensitized to this practice. We all know that those pigs are headed to the slaughter house and we don’t bat an eye. It’s baffling that the second you look up from this normal sight and bring it into a different light, it suddenly becomes a barbaric practice. Why would someone want to put an animal through that pain? My issue with the sighs of disbelief and cries of injustice that come from meat eaters is very simple: you eat meat. You see those little pigs riding down the highway under stress and think about dinner. You cannot be upset about the road the animals take to your dinner table if you are the problem. As long as people don’t have to see or hear about the process, they are content with the treatment of livestock. The problem is how the
pigs are treated, and you could have a voice in changing the treatment of livestock, but you don’t. When the process from farm to plate is changed and you have to visualize the treatment of livestock and realize that the animal might be suffering discomfort or abuse, you’ll realize there’s a social injustice. You have the power to change how livestock is treated. There are humane farms that do not crowd their livestock, but wait for an appropriate amount of time to make the transition from farm to plate and treat their animals with the dignity they deserve. Animals should be treated better than the bottom of your shoe. They ultimately are providing those who choose to eat meat with nutritious sustenance and they should be cared for. Their roles are important in the life of a meat eater and should be treated as such. If the thought of an animal getting tattooed appalls you, perhaps you should try humane meat and send a message to commercial farmers and their vendors saying you will choose a better, less guilty meat choice. Then perhaps, we won’t need people to make statements through artwork, and animals will be able to be animals, not just statements.
Let’s hear crowd noise at tennis matches By Alex.Felker @iowastatedaily.com Arthur Ashe Stadium — tennis’s largest stadium and the U.S. Open’s primary New York venue — always has been home to one of the sport’s most unique atmospheres. Raucous crowds, intemperate winds and amplified pressure are hallmarks of the United States’ major tennis championship. This year, however, there’s been a change. With the aim of preventing rain delays, a retractable roof has been added. Oddly enough, this seemingly benign addition to Arthur Ashe has inflamed an old debate. The now enclosed arena amplifies the crowd’s ambient noise. And this issue has raised questions. How loud can the crowd be? When can fans cheer? And for how long? Or what about the sound of the rain hammering down on the roof of the stadium? Tennis is a sport of tradition, a sport of ritual. Wimbledon — England’s major championship and the most prestigious of them all — is representative of this. The crowd is dead silent during points and there is little ambient noise. Some like this. Some believe that a tennis match needs to be played in relative silence and that the sound made when the racket strikes the ball is integral to the match. That quietness is a necessary sign of respect for the players. This is pure hogwash.

Since tennis is an intimate, physically demanding and intensely strategic duel, columnist Felker argues that fans of the sport shouldn’t have to refrain from cheering just because it distracts the players.
Tennis is one of my favorite sports, partly because of its unique, mano a mano structure. There’s nobody to blame if you lose a tennis match. It’s the ultimate competitive test. An intimate, physically demanding and intensely strategic duel. Can you really blame the crowd for getting excited? I think the crowd should be allowed to cheer during points. And between them. And before them. Why shouldn’t there be ambient noise? If players are complaining about being unable to focus during their serves, or backhands or overhead smashes — well, so what?
A basketball player is asked to take a free throw in the face of wild crowd noise. A football kicker is asked to make a field goal while the crowd screams and shouts with all of their might. And a soccer player shooting a penalty kick is asked to do the same. The problem is convention. When the whole crowd is silent — yet one thoughtless individual cries out during Andy Murray’s serve — the point is ruined. But what if the whole crowd was cheering? What if it was just part of the game? I think this would add a whole new element to the sport. A whole new
type of pressure for the athletes. And they would get used to it. Some already have come out in support of the U.S. Open’s atmosphere. Rafael Nadal specifically has said that he enjoys the electric environment Arthur Ashe delivers. I would be surprised if 15 years down the line the average tennis match was not a more crowd-involving affair. If cheering was not so vainly hushed and shushed by the chair umpire before and after stirring, dramatic points. I believe this is the direction that tennis is already heading. I just wish it would move a bit faster.
Incoming freshmen at the University of Chicago received a curious letter from their new university last month. In the letter, Dean of Students John Ellison touched on the university’s “commitment to freedom of inquiry and expression” that motivates students to make their voices heard “without fear of censorship.” He wrote that disagreement and debate as a result of these freedoms “may challenge you and even cause discomfort.” As the ISD Editorial Board noted in a previous editorial, discomfort is often a necessary emotion when confronting new ideas or facing one’s prejudices for the first time. Reconciling this discomfort allows individual growth to take place. Ellison’s letter, however, goes to such a length that he perhaps causes unnecessary discomfort in students already victimized by those using their “freedom of expression.” There is a line to be drawn between one’s freedom of speech and one purposely making others feel uncomfortable in the name of this freedom. Ellison even acknowledged this. In his letter, he said, “Freedom of expression does not mean the freedom to harass or threaten others.” But by later denouncing the existence of “trigger warnings” and “safe spaces” on campus as threats to those aforementioned freedoms, he fundamentally misunderstands how these ideas fit into his own vision for the university. Per Merriam-Webster, a trigger warning is “a statement cautioning that content [in a text, video or class] may be disturbing or upsetting.” In a literature class, a book containing a chapter where a character is sexually assaulted might reasonably upset a student who also has been sexually assaulted. As a result, a trigger warning might be issued to the class so people affected by sexual assault can prepare themselves before reading. On college campuses, a safe space is generally a place where people can go to express themselves without fear of harassment or violence. An LGBTQ+ center would be a safe space for LGBTQ+ individuals to gather and feel welcomed for who they are, in addition to possibly escape judgment or persecution. Neither of these prevent the free expression of professors or other students to present and discuss their class materials. A trigger warning, except in rare circumstances, will not immediately repel a student from the discussion — in fact, it may ensure that students are able to participate in the class normally, as they have been able to prepare themselves to face their trauma. But if only some students have the ability to view the entire campus as a “safe space,” as Ellison seemed to imply — those who are not minoritized or have never experienced the type of trauma where a trigger warning might be of use — then this ignores the “diversity” and “wide range of ideas” on campus that Ellison touts later in the letter. It also purposely makes these minoritized and/or previously traumatized students unsafe while suppressing their freedom to express otherwise. Trigger warnings and safe spaces remain contentious ideas on college campuses that have only recently gained the spotlight they currently occupy. That said, university administration — and certainly deans of students — would do well to take advantage of the diverse range of thought on their campuses and explore these ideas for themselves.

A week of beauty Shake up your makeup routine with these five looks Story by Madison.Ward @iowastatedaily.com Photos by Emily.Blobaum @iowastatedaily.com
School is back in session, but that doesn’t mean that the time spent creating new makeup looks has to end. Find short cuts and inspiration to add some new looks to your beauty arsenal without adding time. These five makeup looks require very little time and very few products but still give you the opportunity to let your creativity flow.
MONDAY Sticking to the basics by evening out your complexion and concealing dark circles is plenty for a Monday morning. An easy way to amp up a basic base is by adding a natural glow around the perimeter of your face with a bronzer or even a light contour. Taking the same powder bronzer and applying it to the outer third of your eyelid crease will instantly make you look more awake. Filling in your brows and adding a light coat of mascara is a great way to frame your face and pull the look together. Avoid getting washed out by adding a pop of color to the look with a bit of blush and a natural lip color. Ward is wearing Julep Eyeshadow 101 Creme-to-Powder Eyeshadow Stick in Champagne Shimmer on the lid.
TUESDAY Just to make sure you’re really over those Monday blues, Tuesday’s look includes some blue shades because there is always room for color. After creating a subtle daytime smoky eye effect with a light charcoal gray shadow through the crease, pick up any shadow shade that you love on a pencil brush and smudge that into your bottom lash line. Using the same color shadow as your eye color or just a shadow that you love will put the focus on your eyes. A variation on this technique would be taking a colored liner and applying that on the top or bottom lash line. Pairing a smoky eye with a nude lip makes the traditional nighttime look much more wearable during the day. Ward is wearing L.A. Colors GRaFix eyeliner in Teal on the inner half of the upper lash line.
WEDNESDAY A great way to add balanced interest to any makeup look is to pick one feature and make it pop while the others play more of a supporting role. For Wednesday, it was time for the lips to take center stage. Using a metallic liquid lipstick is an easy — and trendy way — to put a new twist on the ’90s classic brown lip. To create a full effect, use a complementary lip liner and trace the outline of your lips after you have applied your liquid lip. This trick cleans up the edges and creates the perfect pout. The eyes can take the back seat with just some thin winged liner and a lid shade complementary to your skin tone. Create flattering wing liner by aiming the outer point of the wing at the tail of your brow to enhance your natural eye shape. Ward is wearing the middle shadow in the top row of the BH Cosmetics Shaaanxo Palette on the inner corner of her eye.
THURSDAY Inspiration can come from anywhere, and for Thursday, it came from one of fashion and beauty’s most iconic eras — the ’50s. Covering the lid with a taupebrown matte shadow created a neutral base for a deepened crease and a hint of a winged liner. Apply a rosy blush starting from your cheek bones down to the apple of your cheeks. Bringing the product down your face rather than up will create a more flattering shape. Top off the look with a glossy red lip and you’ll be ready for a classic #tbt photo op. Pick a red lip based on your skin’s undertone. Go for a cool red if you have a pink undertone and a warm red if you have a yellow undertone. Ward is wearing the Tartelette Palette’s Force of Nature on the lid and crease with Dreamer in the crease.
FRIDAY For Friday’s look, you may want to show your Cyclone pride at any sporting event or campus activities that are sure to fill the weekend. Taking a red shadow on a fluffy blending brush, tuck that into the crease and blend it out in a windshield wiper motion from inner corner to outer corner to make sure there aren’t any harsh lines. Then pick up a gold shimmery shadow and pack that on the lid. Taking that first blending brush again, blend in that windshield motion. This extra step doesn’t apply more product but blends the two shades together to pay a subtle homage to the home team. Don’t be afraid of glitter for day looks. The right amount is youthful and perfect for adding interest to any look. Ward is wearing Naked Cosmetics’ Sierra Nevada mica pigment on the lid.

The Iowa State offensive line prepares for a snap against Northern Iowa on Saturday at Jack Trice Stadium. The Cyclones mustered only 51 yards on 25 carries against the Panthers.
Emily Blobaum/Iowa State Daily
Inexperience hinders ISU offensive line By Luke.Manderfeld @iowastatedaily.com It was the biggest question mark heading in the 2016 season and a question coach Matt Campbell answered time and time again: How would the offensive line, which lost almost all of its starters, hold up over the course of the year? The line’s performance in Saturday’s 25-20 loss to Northern Iowa just affirmed why it was a chief concern for the past eight months. The offensive line struggled to assist the running game, and the end results
were dismal. Iowa State ran for 51 yards on 25 carries. Star running back Mike Warren, who led all freshman rushers in yards last season, only had 30 yards on 12 carries. It was clear that Warren was frustrated about the meager performance when meeting with the media Tuesday. “We try to stay poised and maintain our composure as things go, but we had to adjust a little bit,” Warren said. “Clearly that stuff didn’t work at all.” Heading into fall camp, the line only had one consistent returning starter back in the form of Jake Campos, but he suffered
a broken leg and is likely to miss the rest of the season. That left Nick Fett, who has one career start at Iowa State, the most experienced lineman. But the blockers are still young, and there’s potential laced throughout the line. That youth is something passing game coordinator Tom Manning is banking on. “I have seen humungous growth in the line from even where they were from a few weeks ago,” Manning said. “We just got to stick by their side and keep rolling with them, baby.” It will certainly help to get one lineman back
in the rotation. Redshirt freshman Julian GoodJones, listed as the starting right tackle in this week’s two-deep depth chart, was suspended for Saturday’s game for a violation of team rules. Campbell said the suspension stemmed from an incident in the spring. Good-Jones entered spring football in line to start at center before the team picked up transfer Brian Bobek. The staff promptly moved GoodJones over to his more natural position on the right side of the line. “I think he practiced well today,” Manning said. “We’ll see how he does
when he gets out there Saturday. You don’t now until he gets out there bullets start flying.” As Campbell said Saturday in the post-game press conference, the coaching staff believes much of the offensive line’s woes could be attributed to a wealth of penalties, putting the squad in tough situations. Those penalties also stunted Warren’s ability to get into a rhythm. There were two or three instances Saturday where Warren broke out for a 15- or 20-yard run, only to be called back by the yellow flag. “Yeah, it was tough trying to get a rhythm as
well,” Warren said. “But it seems like every time you run the ball, there was a penalty or a play got called back.” Even though the penalties could be a reason for the line’s poor performance, there is a still a ways to go before the blockers grow into an effective core. “I think the main thing for us is we just need to play our game,” Bobek said. “There was a lot of mistakes that guys weren’t making through camp that I noticed. If we can just eliminate those and play the way that we can play, we can be much better.”
Depth pushes competition for starting spots By Curran.McLaughlin @iowastatedaily.com In the Iowa State soccer team’s game against Creighton, team captain Koree Willer wasn’t in the starting lineup. It wasn’t long before last season’s First Team All-Big 12 forward saw the field, only waiting six minutes. Willer immediately contributed, scoring the first goal to tie the game for Iowa State in its 3-1 victory. “[I wanted to] go out there and do what I can do and not really worry about where those minutes are at in a game, but just the minutes I am on the field and to play hard,” Willer said after the game. Willer would go on to play 62 minutes in the Creighton game, but it served as a reminder to every player on the team. No starting spot is safe. “We felt that Mia [McAleer] and Klasey [Medelberg] outperformed through [that] week,” said coach Tony Minatta. “[The starting position] has got to be earned every week.” With a deep bench this year, Minatta said he wanted to implement a system to keep his players from becoming complacent and not giving full effort during games — something he’s noticed in past years. By keeping every starting

“It ups the stakes a lot,” said team captain Madi Ott. “I think it’s a really good reminder to people that every single practice and every single day counts.” Ott, who’s started every game and played 442 minutes, said she finds herself leaving practices exhausted from fighting for her spot. She said that kind of intensity in practice is what she wants to see the whole team carry over into games. “It shows us the level that we are capable of playing at,” Ott said. Knowing the level of play the team can reach can be challenging because the coaches know that level as well and expect it every day, not just in practice but in games as well. The starting spot isn’t safe if in-game performance doesn’t live up. “We have so much competition at every single position,” said redshirt freshman Kasey Opfer. “You’re never safe and you should never be comfortable in the position that you’re in. Because the second you get complacent with it, it can be taken from you so fast.” Opfer, who has started four games and played 252 minutes this season, said she isn’t concerned about getting the start but rather getting more minutes on the field. “If you think you’ve

position open, players are always competing to keep their spot on the depth chart. Minatta and his staff are keeping track of every player — in game and in practice — and creating a statistical ranking to show
his players where they’re at on the depth chart. “If somebody comes in and says, ‘Hey, why am I not starting?’ or ‘Why didn’t I perform [as well]?’ we have the ability to show them because we keep
track of everything,” Minatta said. Shots on goal, goals scored, winning percentage and plus-minus are all taken into consideration. Minatta even has rankings for inpractice competitions.
achieved one goal, you have to turn around and look at your next goal and try to achieve that one and never be comfortable with where you’re at,” Opfer said. Minatta doesn’t just want his players to be wary of holding their starting spot. He hopes that adding that unknown element will help better prepare his players for in-game situations. When Minatta holds practice competitions, he said he likes to break up players into teams in different ways every week, including captain lead squads, starters vs. reserves or upperclassmen vs. lowerclassmen. “If you’re constantly mixing it up, then they have to be able to adapt to that and they can never get comfortable themselves,” Minatta said. Soccer can be a fluid sport and isn’t restricted to a single formation. Once the whistle blows, the game plan may need to change any minute. “Once the whistle blows, they’re flying numbers at you, they’re doing different things, and players have to be able to adapt to that,” Minatta said. “[We’re] trying to create that environment in practice as much as you can so that they’re always on their toes, always preparing themselves to play.”

ELECTION p1 sound bites rather than with wonkish know-it-all monologues,” Shelley said. “She also has to work really hard to make herself more likeable, perhaps with personal stories.” The first debate is set for Monday, Sept. 26. Early on, multiple media outlets reported that Clinton may have trouble finding someone to play Trump during debate prep, but The New York Times reported last week that her team was digging into information from Trump’s ghostwriter of “The Art of the Deal,” and also was looking to “create a personality profile of Mr. Trump to gauge how he may respond to attacks and deal with a woman as his sole adversary on the debate stage.” “Trump would just not be the same persona if he were overly scripted,” Shelley said. “Much of his base appreciates him exactly because he is not programmed and because he comes across as genuine and not scripted. When he reads from teleprompters, all the spontaneity disappears, and in so doing, he loses traction.” Either way, “It will be the biggest TV audience of any debate,” Schmidt said.
CONTROL OF U.S. SENATE Another angle to watch that hasn’t had much attention yet: Control of the U.S. Senate, currently held by Republicans.
“I think there are so many invested in making sure that Trump doesn’t win that the Senate and House races are not getting their regular share of attention,” Hagle said. “There are u n -
“As for Democrats winning a majority in the Senate, it’s certainly possible,” Hagle said. “Again, a lot will depend on what happens in the presidential race. If Trump can get his act together, or if state Republican parties can

doubtedly variations in the states with Senate races depending on the specifics. So far, some of the Republican senators most thought were vulnerable are doing OK.” Democrats will need to flip five seats to take control, and more Republican seats are up in this cycle. Across the country, candidates are taking different approaches, including a full embrace of Trump, a small endorsement but distancing and flat out avoiding any appearance of a connection to Trump.

in more than 30 years. “The smart money would be for Grassley to win but not by a particularly impressive margin,” Shelley said. “How close the race with Judge becomes will depend largely on differential party turnout and on whether independents stick with their previous pattern of breaking heavily for Grassley.” Two House races in Iowa are being watched nationally and are rated “toss-ups” by news organizations tracking specific races. In Iowa’s 1st District, incumbent Republican Rod Blum represents a district that went for President Obama by almost 14 percent.

Blum has worked hard on constituent service, and that FL should help him in 29 the election,” Hagle said. “Vernon, for her part, comes across as a better candidate than [2014 candidate Pat] Murphy did two years ago. Being a working mom and successful businesswoman plays well. Like other Dem candidates, she can try to tie Blum to Trump and look to work with the Clinton organization.” In the 3rd District, incumbent Republican David Young is facing Jim Mowrer, an Iraq war veteran who was the Democratic nominee in the 4th District in 2014. “[I] get the impression that Mowrer isn’t proving to be the rising start that some Democrats expected given his race against King [in 2014],” Hagle said. “My guess is Young will hang on, but it
will likely be pretty close and events in the presidential race could make the difference.”
