SOF to be reviewed by outside students

Whelton discusses external review at first full MUSG meeting

Marquette Student Government President Kyle Whelton addresses the MUSG Senate at its first meeting Monday night in the Alumni Memorial Union, where he announced he would like to see business students complete an external review of the Student Organization Funding process.

At the first Senate meeting for Marquette Student Government Monday, MUSG President Kyle Whelton announced that business students will conduct a review of the Student Organization Funding process.

The SOF process, which allocates money to student groups on campus, was first placed under review by an ad-hoc MUSG committee to reduce the amount of funds that student groups ending up not using and instead in fell into the Prior Year Reserve fund.

Students from the Lean Six Sigma Process Improvement class, a class studying supply chain theory and process improvement, will conduct the review.

Last year, the reserve fund sat at $250,000, five times the amount required by MUSG’s financial rules. A previous Tribune investigation found that in Fiscal Year 2013, $20,000 came from unused SOF dollars.

AMU sandwich shop designed to limit congestion

Lunchtime at the Alumni Memorial Union’s Marquette Place is widely known to be a chaotic mess of students trying to grab a quick bite between classes.

In an attempt to address the noontime congestion, Marquette Place’s manager, John Nicholds, said Erbert & Gerbert’s, the new sandwich shop in the food court, was strategically placed to keep the lines moving.

Last Thursday marked the opening of Erbert & Gerbert’s, a sandwich shop that originated in Eau Claire, Wis., and offers 20 different

hot, cold or gluten-free sandwiches, as well as hot soup.

The menu features a variety of colorful names, like “the Girf” (turkey and ham), “the Erupter” (buffalo chicken and bleu cheese), and “the Geeter” (seafood and Bacon).

“Our goal is that through our fresh and delicious food and stellar customer service we can become a vital part of the campus community,” said Eric Wolfe, president and CEO of Erbert & Gerbert’s, in a news release.

Students with a meal plan have a choice of a turkey, ham, roast beef or tuna sandwich, which comes with a selection of chips and a medium drink. Additionally, beginning Sept. 29, Nicholds said he hopes to add limited-time offers to switch up the sandwich options and give students the opportunity to try something different.

“Erbert & Gerbert’s has been very popular among students,” Nicholds said. “Marquette is always

looking for a way to change up the dining options on campus and keep things fresh.”

Erbert & Gerbert’s is also unique in that students are able to pay for their meals right at the restaurant’s counter, as opposed to the cash registers shared by all other outlets in the food court.

“They have been able to offer students both chips and a drink for the meal plan, which New York City Subs was unable to do in the past,” Nicholds said.

Marquette started to look into adding Erbert & Gerbert’s to its campus a couple of years ago, but the chain only recently received attention for its success on other campuses.

In an article on Thrillist, an entertainment website, the Erbert & Gerbert’s location at the University of Minnesota was listed as one of 33 top sandwich shops on American college campuses.

Taxis sue city after Uber, Lyft decision MU students using phone apps express concern over lawsuit

By Benjamin Lockwood

benjamin.lockwood@marquette.edu

Milwaukee taxi companies are squaring off against the city of Milwaukee in federal court with a lawsuit aimed at holding or providing monetary compensation for an ordinance upping the limit of cab permits.

The federal court in Milwaukee has not yet decided whether or not to issue an injunction against the city, but according to Alderman Robert Bauman, a proponent of the ordinance, the court is expected to deliver a written decision soon.

“In the meantime,” Bauman said in an email, “the city is continuing to take applications for new permits and licenses and is continuing to issue provisional permits and licenses.”

The ordinance was originally written in reaction to “ridesharing” apps, like Uber or Lyft, which quickly established a presence in the Milwaukee area. The Milwaukee dispute underscores similar legal battles happening across the country regarding the ride-sharing apps.

Taxi companies argue that by issuing more permits, the ones already in circulation will lose their value. This, they say hurts their investments and so they are therefore entitled to monetary compensation.

The going rate for cab permits is roughly $150,000.

Taxi companies also complain about the new competition, which they see as having an unfair advantage over traditional cab services, and many local governments are unclear about their legality.

In an interview with Fox6, Milwaukee City Clerk Jim Owczarski suggested that these new ride-sharing companies should comply with existing legislation.

“We’re fairly confident, at least on the face of it, they are a cab,” Owczarski said.

However, Uber Milwaukee General Manager Nick

Milwaukee taxi companies have filed a lawsuit against Milwaukee in order to limit the number of cab permits the city can distribute as a way of combating against ride-sharing apps such as Uber and Lyft.

Anderson said in an earlier interview with the Tribune that ride-sharing apps are not cab companies, but rather technology companies that connect riders to cabs.

“Like OpenTable for restaurants or Expedia for airline tickets,” Anderson said in an email, “Uber is a facilitator of a quality experience, but does not provide actual transportation service.”

Regardless of the technical definitions associated with such services, ride-sharing apps are

gaining traction across America, despite early setbacks in places like Miami or Chicago.

At Marquette, some students who use the apps are nervously monitoring the precarious legal situation. Madeline Burke, a junior in the College of Communication and frequent user of both Lyft and Uber, said she was worried about the outcome of the lawsuit.

“I’ve used (Uber and Lyft) in Los Angeles, Chicago and Milwaukee because it’s so convenient,” Burke said. “If

DPS Reports Sept. 4 A student reported that between Aug. 2 at 8:45 p.m. and Aug. 4 at 6:30 p.m., unknown person(s) removed her secured, unattended vehicle in a rear lot in the 900 block of N. 15th St. The estimated loss is $5,000. MPD was contacted.

the law gets struck down, I’d just go back to taking the buses. I wouldn’t use cabs because they’re inconvenient and expensive.”

Ride-sharing apps operate on the basis of pre-paying for services, and tips are often unnecessary. By downloading the apps on a smartphone, users can select their location and pay their fare beforehand, as opposed to traditional cab services, for which customers pay based on the distance traveled by the end of the trip.

MU requires new Year starts with bout of crime training for Title IX DPS Chief attributes Sexual misconduct prevention mandated for school employees

By Teran Powell

teran.powell@marquette.edu

In further compliance with Title IX, all Marquette faculty, staff and student employees are required to take an online sexual misconduct prevention training course this fall.

The training consists of two modules which will be emailed to university employees Sept. 9.

The first module describes federal law and university policies to prevent and report incidents of sexual misconduct, while the second addresses workplace discrimination, according to a university news brief.

For the past four years, Marquette implemented several different initiatives geared toward familiarizing campus with issues of sexual misconduct and the effects it can have on the community. Efforts included required freshmen sexual assault prevention training, Title IX compliance, the Safe Zone program and collaboration with community partners, in addition to hosting special speakers and events to raise sexual violence awareness.

Title IX coordinator, the Rev. Daniel Hendrickson, said he believes the new training will get people familiar with the federal and university policies regarding sexual misconduct.

“Sexual assault training has always been mandatory in general workplace harassment at the university on a routine basis,” Hendrickson said. “Title IX law is changing and intensifying in significant ways and the university is responding to federal and state mandates

to keep the campus informed about Title IX laws.”

However, Nuri Navarro, a junior in the College of Communication and desk receptionist at Schroeder Hall, said he thinks more can be done with the sexual assault training.

“I think that if Marquette is looking to improve the knowledge about sexual misconduct on campus they should provide the opportunity to all students, not just the student employees,” Navarro said.

Hendrickson said the training will focus on major aspects of Title IX. “Training will focus on two important aspects of Title IX,” Hendrickson said. “One is to understand what it is and better appreciate the intricacies of the law … the second is to understand that Title IX prescribes the duty to report sexual misconduct crimes to university authorities.”

Hendrickson noted that training emphasizes the national epidemic of sexual misconduct in the college environment.

“My hope is that faculty and staff appreciates the efforts of the university as we continue to evolve in Title IX awareness,” Hendrickson said.

Susannah Bartlow, director of the Gender and Sexuality Resource Center, said she eagerly anticipates the new initiative.

“As a staff and faculty member, I’m excited to see the university is taking steps to address campus sexual assault,” Bartlow said in an email.

Title IX mandates gender equity in the educational system, with regards to pregnant and parenting teens’ rights, genderbased violence and compliance with the Clery Act. The act became law in 1972. The Office of the Provost offers resources for victims of sexual assault and those interested in learning about Title IX.

rise in crime to higher student activity levels

By Gary Leverton

gary.leverton@marquette.edu

It’s a perennial problem: As new students appear on campus, so does a wave of crime.

In the past couple of weeks, the Department of Public Safety reported a long list of thefts, robberies and assaults.

“Typically there is an increase in crime in the beginning of the year,” said DPS Chief Paul Mascari. “There are more students out and about, at night especially, which is more attractive to criminal activity.”

The spike in crime usually affects new students who are not used to living in the city. In the last two weeks, separate incidents resulted in estimated losses ranging from $100 to more than $2,000.

In one incident that took place

early morning Sept. 1, two subjects exited a vehicle and approached a student with a weapon in the 900 block of N. 17th St., according to DPS reports. In that case the student was not injured, but lost an estimated $600.

In another incident that same night, a student was attacked by three subjects who exited a vehicle in the 1500 block of W. Kilbourn Ave. The assailants exited their vehicle and approached the victim and another student with a weapon, punching the victim in the face and taking $440 in property, according to DPS reports.

“When I came to Marquette, it being a college in the city of Milwaukee, I expected there to be some crime throughout the year,” said Sebastian Feher, a freshman. “So far there hasn’t been anything that’s surprised me or had me question my safety on this campus.”

Mascari said another contributing factor to crime this time of the year is warmer weather on the weekends.

“People are doing more activities during these times,

opposed to the winter months and the weekdays when it tends to slow down with less people going out,” Mascari said. “The more activity there is, the greater chance there is for crime” But that does not mean weekdays and winter months are without incidents. Mascari said crime is a year-round issue .

“We want people to remain vigilant and aware at all times,” Mascari said. “We don’t want to lull people into a false sense of security during times when crime isn’t as likely to happen.”

Mascari said there are a few things students should avoid, such as leaving property unattended, walking alone late at night and being unaware of surroundings.

“Our main purpose is to patrol and be visible so that we can prevent crime from happening and protect our students,” Mascari said. “When we can’t, the message that we try and get across to everybody is that certain precautions for safety need to be practiced in an urban environment.”

MUSG: MUSG Senate discusses Lovell inauguration events, diversity

approved measures last year to tap into the reserve fund, implementing a reusable to-go container system in the dining halls and installing water bottle refilling stations across campus. Whelton and MUSG Financial Vice President Nick Ciccone estimated about $163,000 remains in the fund.

INAUGURATION EVENTS In addition to discussing the new SOF review, Whelton also discussed the events next week for the inauguration of University President Michael Lovell.

“One thing Dr. Lovell said was he wanted an event every day of (his) inauguration where (he) can engage with the students,” Whelton said.

Inaugural events will begin with the Briggs & Al’s Run on Sept. 13, dinners with students in residence halls, and close with the inaugural ceremony on Sept. 19. MUSG will be spending about $13,000 on the inauguration events, with $10,000 of that going toward the inaugural ball Sept. 13.

Whelton said he hopes students

will take advantage of these opportunities and welcome Lovell to Marquette.

“Throughout the week, we will have a welcome banner in the AMU for students to sign and welcome Dr. Lovell to the Marquette family,” Whelton said. “There is a lot going on and there are some opportunities for students to engage with the president.”

REVIEW OF PROGRAM BOARD Whelton also introduced a new ad-hoc committee, chaired by Program Vice President Ryan Twaddle, to examine the structure of the MUSG Program Board, which manages the funds for program committees, including Late Night, MU Unplugged and speakers coming to campus.

“The fundamental structure of the Program Board hasn’t changed since 1996 when we passed our governing document,” Whelton said. “They will be reviewing, trying to make the most effective system we can have.”

SOF REQUESTS Two Non-Club Sports Organizations, the Physical Therapy Student Council and the Naturals, requested $7,500 and the Naturals requested $3,319 respectively, MUSG Executive Vice President Natalie Pinkney said.

Legislative Vice President Zack Wallace stated that both allocation requests were approved by the Senate, with $7,250 to be allocated to the PT Student Council and 16 of the 20 present senators voting to approve The Naturals’ request.

DIVERSITY AMENDMENT The meeting concluded with discussion of an amendment, led

MU grad spreads chic style with personally sewn clothing patterns

By Paige Lloyd

paige.lloyd@marquette.edu

When 2014 Marquette University graduate Margaret Fredericks decided to make a profit from her simple sewing skills, she did not imagine it blooming into a successful business. Her individually sewn shirts started appearing all over campus, and “Mary Pockets,” the name of her venture, was spreading quickly.

The business prospect began earlier in her childhood, when her 85-year-old neighbor, Mary, shared her seamstress abilities with Fredericks. She wanted to put her sewing talents to use and thought of the idea to sew fun patterned pocket squares on long-sleeved shirts in Jan. 2014.

Fredericks’ inspiration was to “create something that was unique but also easily customizable.” With the help of many friends on campus, she found herself sewing more shirts than she expected.

As sales increased, she needed to decide on a name for her enterprise. Fredericks went to her neighbor and asked for her opinion, to which Mary replied,

“Well, it better have my name on it.” After a discussion with her father and a slight spin on “Mary Poppins,” the company name was born.

Though Fredericks had schoolwork to complete, business held steady during her senior year. With the help of friends, she was able to promote the shirts by letting people wear them around campus, updating photos on Instagram and Facebook, and word of mouth.

Fredericks did what she could to promote as well, which included carrying around a cutout of all the patterns of the pockets.

As the popularity grew, Fredericks found her main contacts with sorority groups who requested matching shirts and had her making up to 100 shirts to fulfill the entire order. Starting from only long sleeves shirts, Mary Pockets has now expanded and sells short sleeves, baseball tees, crew-neck sweatshirts and tank tops.

Though Fredericks graduated last May and now has a teaching job, she keeps her products present on campus through social media and friends who promote her products daily. The majority of her sales now come from weddings since parties can customize their shirts to match the occasion for events like bachelorette parties. Fredericks hopes

to find more partners around the area that allow her to make large group orders.

A way in which she finds partners is through a family network, which includes her mother’s business, which also is in the wedding market. This way she can create more connections in the Milwaukee area, reaching out to more wedding parties and brides that may be looking for something interesting such as Mary Pockets for their upcoming events.

Fredericks also collaborates with Bright Pink, an organization that raises awareness and helps supply necessary information to women diagnosed with breast or ovarian cancers. This partnership allows Fredericks to become more involved in events around the Midwest and support a cause she deems important.

All proceeds from the shirts that Mary Pockets sells go to Bright Pink.

One small idea spurred the creation of Mary Pockets, and Fredericks’ dedication fueled its success. With constant orders and promotion, her company continues to thrive since its start in January and does not seem to be slowing down anytime soon. With large group projects, Mary Pockets continues to have a presence in the area and on Marquette’s campus.

Dystopian films lose value as genre heads box-office ‘The Maze Runner’ looks to follow trend of novels-turned-films Last week, I saw a trailer for the movie “The Maze Runner,” the first installment in a successful young-adult book series that takes place in a dystopian, postapocalyptic world. While most people would watch the 60-second clip and move on, it sparked an interesting thought.

Just last month, “The Giver” was released into theaters, which is also a story set in a dystopian universe.

And before that there was “Divergent” and “The Hunger Games.”

Why is there a growing number of dystopian films? What’s next, a film adaptation of George Orwell’s “1984” or “Animal Farm?” Or perhaps Aldous Huxley’s famous dystopian tale “Brave New World?”

My guess is that the sudden surge in post-apocalyptic adventure/romance/cheesiness has little to do with an increased interest in the genre, and more to do with the overwhelming financial success of popular dystopian stories “The Hunger Games” and “Divergent.” Both were enormous box-office hits. The first “Hunger Games” film, which debuted in 2012, grossed $152.5 million, and the sequel, “The Hunger Games: Catching Fire,” cashed in $161.1 million, breaking the record for best November debut.

The popularity of the films permeated popular culture for months

after each premiere. It was nearly impossible to walk down a school hallway or cross the street without seeing the classic Katniss Everdeen hair braid.

“Divergent” received $56 million its opening weekend and dominated films like Disney’s “Muppet’s Most Wanted.” Due to its success, the rest of the books in the series are expected to hit theaters within the next year.

Based off those numbers, it makes sense for production companies to continue shooting dystopian films.

After all, adapting other dystopian stories into films would make money and transfer the fan base to other projects, right?

Wrong. The success of those movies did not leave a magical blueprint for the rest of its dystopian story family.

The anticipated dystopian films “Transcendence” and “The Giver” were shocking disappointments at the box office, especially to people who have already read “The Giver” and are fans of Johnny Depp.

Depp’s appearance in “Transcendence” was not enough, and the film made $16 million its opening weekend, followed by “The Giver” at $12.7 million.

Looking at the wild success of “The Hunger Games” and “Divergent,” it is surprising that the dystopian films that came out this summer did not do as well as its predecessors. Similar to “The Hunger Games” and “Divergent,” “The Giver” was a classic, beloved young-adult book.

What will happen to “The Maze Runner,” another admired novel, when it comes to theaters Sept. 19?

Will it join “The Hunger Games” and “Divergent” on a pedestal of high-grossing movies? Or will it tragically flop alongside “The Giver” and “Transcendence?” It’s hard to say.

It is also unclear whether or not the trend of dystopian movies will continue after the way the films have been making less money than anticipated. If “The Maze Runner” is a dud, filmmakers will likely reconsider producing dystopian movies based on novels and realize that just because a couple of movies based off beloved stories were successful, it does not mean every book-adapted movie will be. Or maybe “The Maze Runner” will be just as wildly successful as “The Hunger Games” and “Divergent,” and this is the beginning of a lasting dystopian trend.

Holey Moley serves up fresh pastries in Third Ward New doughnut and coffee shop replaces MKE Cupcake Co.

By Sarah Schlaefke

sarah.schlaefke@marquette.edu

Something sweet and new is brewing down in the Third Ward, and it is sure to quench a coffee addiction and satisfy a sweet tooth. Holey Moley Doughnuts and Coffee has taken on the challenge of providing America’s favorite fix in place of the beloved Milwaukee Cupcake Company at 316 N. Milwaukee St. Holey Moley lives up to its slogan of “Silly name, serious doughnuts” with the large selection of flavors the walk-in café offers. Their doughnut menu includes basic chocolates and vanillas, vegan options and exotic flavors like PB&J or coconut passionfruit. These dough-

nuts are delicately dipped in fresh, exclusive glazes that give the old fashion lemon doughnuts their decadent tang and “coffee & doughnut” doughnuts their pre-dipped espresso glory.

Although the five-week-old company often runs out of specific flavors before close, including fan-favorites Creme Brule and the Fat Elvis, the store remains open to offer freshly brewed Hawthorne Coffee for the remainder of the day. Hawthorne generally serves light, single-source Ethiopian, Guatemalan or Costa Rican roasts and caramelized espresso, both to make for a great cup of joe or latte. The roasts and strictly timed brews support the coffee’s natural sweetnesses, making Holey Moley’s doughnuts a match made in caffeine and sugar heaven.

cation to be surprising once they were able to grab their doughnuts and coffee. Ever since the Milwaukee Cupcake Company left the premises, the space was never renovated to fit the coffee shop feel, so Holey Moley still possesses a deceiving bakery vibe.

Patron Eric Lubarsky said that while the doughnuts are to die for, they can be expensive. Old-fashioned sweets like Holey Moley doughnuts were worth the extra few bucks to him though. He also felt that a large location flaw was the lack of

seating available.

Every Tuesday, Marquee spotlights five Twitter users from a specific entertainment genre. This week, we give you the top five film critics to follow for entertaining and informative reviews on your favorite (or least favorite) movies.

Richard Roeper: @RichardRoeper Richard Roeper is most notable for working with the legendary Roger Ebert on the hit show, “Ebert & Roeper.” Roeper is a film critic in his 50s who writes for the Chicago Sun-Times. He posts his reviews to his YouTube channel, ReelzChannel. On his website, Roeper gives in-depth reviews topped off with a letter grade to judge the quality of the film. His Twitter page offers more insight to his reviews, but he also uses it to voice his opinions on current events. Chicago is one of the biggest movie markets in America, and Richard Roeper, arguably the city’s most popular critic, does a fantastic job bringing us his experience in the film critiquing industry. Roeper has reviewed movies for decades and he has worked with some of the most talented actors, producers and critics in the industry.

Before you ask why the late Roger Ebert made this list, you should know that his work is kept alive on his website. His wife, Chaz, writes a blog alongside movie reviews by some of the country’s finest critics. This Twitter page gives links to all kinds information regarding current movies. The reviews that appear on his website come from an ensemble of critics that give open, honest reviews just as Ebert would have if he were alive today. Ebert’s legacy lives on through the Internet, and his Twitter page is a great way to connect with the legend and indulge in his work.

Roger Ebert passed away last April.

John Flickinger: @JohnFlickster John Flickinger, similar to Chris Stuckmann, is a young film critic who runs the YouTube channel, TheFlickPick. Flickinger’s reviews stand out because of their humor. For example, when reviewing “The Dark Knight Rises,” Flickinger gave a Batman impression, suit and all. He provides honest movie reviews, but uses funny lingo and relatable humor to get his point across. Flickinger shows his inner nerd during his reviews, making him extremely entertaining to watch and separating him from his slightly snobby colleagues.

Sexual misconduct training discriminates as it educates

Photo courtesy of whitehouse.gov

Our view: University sexual assault policies should disseminate procedural information to all students to minimize the occurence of sexual assault on campus Since President Barack Obama founded the White House Task Force to Protect Students from Sexual Assault in January, there have been new developments in college campuses’ treatment of sexual assault. The Task Force released its first report in April, putting forth suggestions for new training methods and initiatives that could be effective in the campus context.

Policy changes in the United States since the report was published have led to some positives, such as California’s recent Affirmative Consent bill to be implemented on college campuses, while lack of change has prompted Emma Sulkowicz, a student at Columbia University, to carry her mattress everywhere on campus in protest of the university’s failure to address her case and expel her alleged rapist. The conversation about sexual assault and misconduct is far from over as college students continue to be affected.

This week Marquette renews it efforts to address sexual assault with a new initiative in which all university employees, faculty, staff and student employees will take part in online sexual misconduct prevention training. The training, broken into two modules, will provide information on how the university must address sexual assault under Title IX, a statute set in place to prevent discrimination in higher education, and what is required of employees based on the university’s commitment.

Widening the conversation of sexual assault on Marquette’s campus from predominantly student-based discussions to staff and faculty is a promising step. Students are not the only people at universities affected by sexual misconduct and all staff should be aware of the proper procedures.

In a structure made up of hierarchies and chains of command, information can get lost or mis-communicated and this training will hopefully eliminate these possibilities.

The new training will inform university

employees on how sexual assault should be addressed so they may act as resources for their coworkers as well as the student population. Information about the university’s procedures and expected protocol should be common knowledge, though the training only allocates the training to some.

This is problematic, as not everyone is getting the same message.

Students not employed by the university will not have access to the Title IX training, which seems counterproductive to the aim of educating people who could be affected by sexual assault on what to expect if they chose to report a case. While the information is out there, the new training is not disseminated to all associated with campus but just a select portion.

First-year students take part in a mandatory sexual assault prevention program that focuses on preventing sexual assault with little mention of reporting procedures.

This could ultimately lead to disconnect, as giving some students information while bypassing others does not “better provide a learning and living environment that supports everyone on campus,” like University President Michael Lovell has emphasized with the new procedures.

Title IX has the intent purpose of setting procedures to prevent discrimination in higher education, but Marquette’s new initiative falls short and may even lead to the discrimination of students when the true aim under Title IX is to prevent privileging some students and disadvantaging others. All parties in the university should be empowered with knowledge about sexual assault reporting procedures, not just those who work for the institution.

The information from the Title IX training should be made available to everyone in the same form if Marquette is to stay true to its commitment to addressing sexual assault and benefitting everyone. We all want to know that the university protects us and takes cases of sexual misconduct very seriously. Everyone needs to understand how policies are to be followed so we may hold the university and each other accountable in any case that should arise.

Andrew Thompson Application season has to be one of the most stressful times in students’ lives. Whether it is for undergraduate or graduate schools, or a place in the workforce, there seem to be an infinitesimal amount of material to be prepared. I’m knee deep in the process, constructing my applications for graduate school: editing writing samples, preparing for the GRE, writing multiple personal statements, discussing the pros and cons of particular PhD programs with my mentors and eagerly checking online forums for advice on the process.

It is here that I have come across a recurring theme mentioned in any conversation about applying for something — luck. Not luck in the sense of a lottery, but rather luck compounded with an applicant’s qualifications, the program’s expectations and timing. In the graduate school application process there are essentially two tiers of applicants: a minimum and a maximum. If you fit the expectations of the program, you are essentially above the minimum. You are a contender for admission but not a standout candidate. If you are above the maximum, you not only fit the criteria of the program but also excel more than those who are in between the minimum and maximum requirements. But there is a catch: your above-average eligibility does not guarantee you a position.

Admitted students fit the parameters of the program in terms of academic standing as well as interests. Here, the idea of luck and expectations comes

into play. If a student above the maximum has a research interest that does not fit the expectations of the program during a particular application season, chances are he or she will be denied.

This is a decision that is up to the admissions committee. There are a great many variables that play into this. Alternatively, if I am interested in the particular area of focus that the school specializes in but do not have experience with their research methodology, this could be reason for denial.

There is no way to find out the precise expectations of the program and tailor one’s application to it. No one has an inkling of what the outcome might be for their multiple applications. It is an odd thing to realize, but embracing the fact that, even after four years of hard work, there may not actually be any good reward is necessary when approaching this scenario. This same reasoning can be applied to other application forms. Depending upon the timing of applications and expectations of committees to jobs or internships, credentials can only go so far. No one application is ideal enough to have 100% certainty. And so, because of this, all different types of applications must be approached skeptically.

We always enjoy the romantic notion that students in specialized positions are there as a result of hard work and beating out the competition. Are we willing to accept that luck probably played some role in the attainment of such a position? I would like to think so. Am I willing to accept that luck plays a role for me this application season? I am going to have to, whether I like it or not.

Hamilton’s affects MKE, Marquette community

Jasmine Gonzalez Last August, journalist Shirin-Banou Barghi released a visual tribute to men killed by police officers within the past decade.

The project, called “#LastWords,” pairs a simple graphic with the victims’ final words and a caption describing their final moments. The illustrations reveal a disturbing trend in police brutality cases: the application of deadly force against African-American men continues to rise in number, and it is becoming exceedingly violent.

The victims featured include Sean Bell, whose car was volleyed with over 50 bullets on the night of his bachelor party; Amadou Diallo, who was shot at 41 times by four police officers in a case of mistaken identity; Jonathan Ferrell, shot 10 times while trying to find help after a car accident; and Michael Brown, who, while allegedly surrendering to police, was shot five times before a sixth kill shot was fired straight into the top of his skull.

And just this year Milwaukee was home to a similar incident.

On April 30th, 31-year-old Dontre Hamilton was shot to death downtown at Red Arrow Park by an unnamed Milwaukee police officer. According to the final report on the incident by the Wisconsin Department of

Justice, the officer in question responded to a call in the area, unaware that a previous pair of officers had already deemed Hamilton’s presence harmless. The officer began to conduct a pat-down search on Hamilton, which led to a scuffle between the two men. After Hamilton seized the officer’s wooden baton — whether he struck the officer or not is still unverified — the officer opted to use deadly force to handle the situation. Hamilton was shot 15 times, which is the full capacity of most .40-caliber Smith & Wesson handguns, including the officer’s service pistol.

Deadly force can be justified, yet police officers are taught various alternatives to neutralize a situation, such as first using verbal commands against a visible threat. If this fails, officers must use physical action instead, and whether an officer decides to use deadly or non-deadly force rests heavily on the situation. If a police officer reasonably believes that his or her own safety or the safety of others is in jeopardy — seizing a police officer’s weapon constitutes such a threat — then the application of deadly force is accepted.

The line between acceptable and excessive use of lethal force may at times be uncertain, but it is clear that Hamilton’s situation was overkill. Did Hamilton really need to be shot 15 times to be subdued? Is there ever truly a time when unloading a gun’s entire magazine into a suspect is justifiable? jasmune-color-sided Across the country, African-American men are victimized by police, and the results are alarmingly deadly. Michael Brown’s death in Ferguson may have seemed like something too far away to affect our community, but with Hamilton’s death, the phenomenon has come to our doorstep. As protesters continue

to take to the streets, we must ask that police departments nationwide take this opportunity to reflect upon how they can change their approaches to similar situations in the future.

That so many innocent men have died due to the use of deadly force by police indicates that racial assumptions still have a strong hold in our society, and that our cops are becoming increasingly violent in their methods. This

MU wins Panther Invite

Men’s soccer hosted Gonzaga and Oregon State for its first two home games, defeating both. The wins propelled the team to No. 13 in Top Drawer Soccer’s weekly rankings.

Men’s soccer gets season’s first two wins in the tournament

By Jack Goods

jack.goods@marquette.edu

Last week, the Marquette men’s soccer team walked off the pitch disappointed with its winless record. This weekend, the team walked off as Panther Invitational champions.

Redshirt senior goalkeeper Charlie Lyon and the Golden Eagles put up a clean sheet all weekend, winning 2-0 against Gonzaga Friday and 1-0 against Oregon State Sunday. It was a stark contrast to

the previous weekend, when they dropped consecutive games to powerhouses Notre Dame and Indiana.

This go around, everything seemed to click, from footwork to set plays. The Golden Eagles played like the better team in both matches.

“I thought defensively we did really well,” Marquette coach Louis Bennett said. “Not giving goals up gives us a chance to win.”

Sunday’s game decided the champion of the tournament due to Oregon State beating Wisconsin-Milwaukee Friday night.

With the two victories, Marquette moved up to No. 13 in Top Drawer Soccer’s rankings.

“Winning the Panther Invitational, although it may not be

the main goal of the season, is very nice to get,” said redshirt junior defender Axel Sjoberg.

The two shutouts were Lyon’s 21st and 22nd of his career. He is now only six shutouts away from the school record, held

by Jim Welsh.

“It’s a good feeling, especially for us to put it right after the first weekend,” Lyon said. “The guys in front of me worked incredibly hard and they did all the right things.”

The Golden Eagles commanded the Gonzaga game, heavily outshooting and outchancing their opposition. Oregon State played Marquette closer, but after scoring early on a penalty kick, Marquette allowed few opportunities for the Beavers to bite back.

It was a weekend of new scorers for Marquette. Redshirt freshmen Alex McBride and Daniel Szczepanek and redshirt junior David Selvaggi all scored their first goals as Golden Eagles.

Oregon State almost broke the weekend’s clean slate in the 88th minute Sunday, but the shot was stopped right on the line by redshirt sophomore John Pothast. Pothast was named the Big East Defensive Player of the Week.

“The two central defenders and the goaltender are like firemen,” Bennett said. “They are damage control. When we’re at our worst they’ve got to be at their best. He was.”

The backline saw a lot of turnover this weekend after senior

Sebastian Jansson was injured on Friday and senior Brady Wahl became ill before the Oregon State. Redshirt freshmen Driton Zyteja and Jack Alberts made their first starts for Marquette on Sunday.

“The better we become the more common it is for guys to have an introductory year,” Bennett said. “Sometimes then it takes a while for them to kick in when they get their opportunities. But those two, I thought they did very well.”

“If we can rotate guys and still maintain our performance, it’s perfect,” Sjoberg said.

Marquette is back in action Saturday against the Drake Bulldogs at 7:05 pm at Valley Fields.

Noskowiak a big reason for 2015 recruiting class Patrick Leary Last spring, Marquette basketball fans watched with increasing anxiety as one by one, recruits from Buzz Williams’ 2014 class decommitted.

Marial Shayok went to Virginia, while Satchel Pierce and top recruit Ahmed Hill both followed Williams to Virginia Tech. New coach Steve Wojciechowski was in an unenviable position of having to start recruiting pretty much from scratch at the eleventh hour.

In his first weeks as coach, Wojciechowski made two crucial moves that will keep Marquette basketball viable for years to come. The former Duke assistant affirmed the commitment of Seymour native Sandy Cohen III, and showed a desire to establish a solid in-state recruiting base, something Williams struggled with in his time in Milwaukee.

More importantly, Wojciechowski convinced Sun Prarie’s Nick Noskowiak, a 2015 point guard that had previously committed to Williams, to stay on board. While Noskowiak is himself a top-50 recruit, his role in the recruiting process for Marquette’s 2015 class cannot be understated.

Neenah native and 2015 6-foot-10 center Matt Heldt committed to Marquette July 1.

Heldt’s stock has greatly increased since his commitment, and he will add much needed depth to Marquette’s front line.

Undoubtedly, Heldt’s AAU teammate, Noskowiak, played a big part in his decision making process. In a show of Marquette pride, Noskowiak tweeted July 14, “Doesn’t feel right playing with my bro @HeldtMatt in red and white Wisconsin jerseys…can’t wait to put that Gold and Blue on.”

But even before that, Noskowiak was diligently recruiting Marquette’s most recent target, 2015 combo guard Haanif Cheatham of Fort Lauderdale, Fla. Noskowiak tweeted July 12, “Marquette fans go Follow my guy @H22_Cheatham were in his top 5 we have to get him.”

At that time, experts on

247sports.com slightly favored Marquette to land the 6-foot-5 Cheatham. That all changed after Cheatham’s visit to Milwaukee Aug. 29, when according to Mark Miller of the Wisconsin Basketball Yearbook, Noskowiak and Heldt were on hand to welcome him.

Noskowiak continued exchanging tweets with Cheatham in the lead-up to his decision Friday, when Cheatham shocked no one by becoming Wojciechowski’s third 2014 commit.

With one spot left on the 2015 roster, it appears Wojciechowski will turn his full attention to ESPN 100 No. 5 recruit Henry Ellenson of Rice Lake. Noskowiak will without a doubt be lending his support.

On the same day he asked Marquette fans to follow

Cheatham on Twitter, Noskowiak tweeted about Ellenson: “An nba scout told me 2day @Hjellenson reminds him of Dirk, go follow him if u have been living under a rock an haven’t yet we need him MU!!!”

Noskowiak, who also plays AAU with Ellenson, continues to retweet Marquette basketball media as they speculate on Ellenson’s potential commitment. The big man would put the icing on the cake of an already top-10 2015 recruiting class, per 247sports.com.

If Wojciechowski can turn Marquette basketball around with his 2015 class, look no further than Noskowiak as the primary reason.

Women’s volleyball has strong weekend in D.C. MU beats host American, loses in 5 sets to No. 8 Seminoles

By Patrick Leary

patrick.leary@marquette.edu

Facing stiff competition for the second straight weekend, the Marquette women’s volleyball team barely missed out on a 2-0 weekend at the American Volleyball Classic after sweeping American Friday and losing a tight five-set match to No. 8 Florida State.

“I thought we had some really good signs of high-level play,” coach Ryan Theis said of the weekend. “We scored in a lot of different areas along the net. We had different

players step up at different times.”

The Golden Eagles started the weekend in fine fashion by rolling into the home gym of American, the team receiving the most votes outside the AVCA Top 25, and sweeping them 25-20, 25-19, 25-16. Sophomore outside hitter Autumn Bailey led the team with 15 kills and a .394 hitting percentage, while freshman setter Gabby Benda had a career-high 24 assists and sophomore libero Lauren Houg added 17 digs.

“We were having an OK practice week,” said Bailey, who was named to the weekly Big East Honor Roll.

“We were getting adjusted to school and practice at the same time. We wanted to make a change, and we decided to do that during the game.”

Marquette was able to frustrate

American early in the match with six first set blocks. The Golden Eagles finished with 10.5 blocks overall and outhit American .288 to .076.

“I don’t know that they played their best,” Theis said of American. “I thought we made them uncomfortable early and got under some players’ skins.”

Bailey emphasized the importance of the non-conference road win.

“We played smart and strong and overcame them,” she said. “That was a big win for us.”

Marquette then took on the highly-regarded Seminoles on Saturday for the tournament title. The teams battled back and forth, but in the end, Florida State came out on top in a five-set thriller (20-25, 25-19,

25-19, 25-27, 15-13).

“I’m really proud of our team for how we performed,” Bailey said. “I think we could have done a little bit better during games two and three … we dug ourselves a hole. Other than that, we were able to play really well in the fourth set and the fifth set despite digging ourselves a hole again.”

Theis also harped on the fifth set, when Marquette fell behind 5-1 before nearly coming back to win.

“I wish we could have the beginning of game five back against Florida State,” Theis said. “I don’t think you can make three or four errors early against a team of that caliber.”

Bailey led the team again with 17 kills, while Benda and redshirt sophomore setter Mary Nilles split 50 kills 27-23, respectively.

Sophomore outside hitter Nele Barber, seeing more time with junior outside hitter Erin Lehman battling a foot injury, had her best game of the year, racking up 11 kills and hitting .476.

“It was terrific to see Nele play that well against Florida State,” Theis said. “She gets into it too, which is neat … she’s fun to be around. When she starts playing well, she gets amped up and it gets everybody pretty excited.”

Theis liked how his team played, but knows they will have to be more consistent going forward to reach their potential.

“I take away a lot of positives,” he said. “But at the end of the day, you’re still going to need to play quality fifth sets to win big matches, and we need to be better at that.”

Women’s soccer snaps streak Golden Eagles go unbeaten in Colorado College Invitational

By Jacob Born

jacob.born@marquette.edu

The Marquette women’s soccer team snapped its three-game losing streak with a come-frombehind win Friday afternoon and tied Colorado College Sunday afternoon for its first undefeated weekend of the season.

Coach Markus Roeders said the weekend was a step in the right direction for the Golden Eagles.

“We came away with a win and a tie, and that was real positive,” Roeders said.

The first half of the New Mexico match continued to show the inexperience of the Marquette squad. The Lobos struck first in the 11th minute, when junior forward Dylann O’Connor dribbled the ball into the box and shot low to the left side.

Marquette goalkeeper Amanda Engel dove to try and stop it, but the shot went through.

New Mexico carried the 1-0 lead into half.

The Golden Eagles came out and played one of their best halves of the season after the break. Six minutes into the second frame, junior Jacie Jermier drilled a free kick into the back of the net to tie the game at 1.

Two minutes later, freshman Eli Beard took a shot from 20 yards out that found the back of the net to give Marquette a 2-1 lead.

Roeders said the goals set the tone for the rest of the half.

“The way we came out in

the second half was fantastic,” lighting. The lighting delay lasted Roeders said. “We scored those for 52 minutes.

Roeders was worried the two goals right off the bat ... and I think that settled us game might be cancelled, as the game was five minutes a little bit.”

Marquette continued to add away from being classified as pressure throughout the second a “full match.”

“It looked really bad with the half and spent a majority of the half in the attacking zone. By weather and everything, but the time the final whistle had after 45 minutes it was sunny sounded, the Golden Eagles skies and we were able to conamassed seven shots on goal tinue on,” Roeders said.

Men’s golf places seventh in tourney Nelson, Sanchez shot low on tough Rich Harvest Farms course

By Sterling Silver

sterling.silver@marquette.edu

The Marquette men’s golf team finished seventh out of 13 teams on the par-72 Rich Harvest Farms golf course at the Northern Intercollegiate Golf Tournament in Sugar Grove, Ill. Juniors Nick Nelson and Pat Sanchez lead the way for the Golden Eagles, individually finishing 10th and 11th, respectfully, in a field of 74 players, which featured three teams that finished in the Top 25 last spring.

The three-day weekend got off to a fast start with Nelson’s best scoring round of the tournament, shooting a 72. A surprise bright spot for the Golden Eagles came from freshman Trevor Thomas, who scored a first round 74 and three day total of 234 in his first college tournament.

Sanchez shot a 69 in the second round, which was the best individual round of the weekend. His score, one off his 18hole record, put the team 12 shots from the lead and was one of his favorite moments in his career.

“It was great to play well at a hard venue,” Sanchez said. “It was nice to shoot the second round of the season in the sixties on one of the hardest courses we’ve played, which shows what we are capable of.”

Coach Steve Bailey was also very impressed with

Sanchez’s second round.

“Pat’s second round 69 was huge for the team,” Bailey said.

“On a day when course conditions were toughest and no other player broke 71 (in the tournament field), he cards six birdies and shots 32 on his back nine. This will be big for his confidence moving forward.”

Although the Golden Eagles made a run towards the top of the standings, Sunday was a bit of a disappointment for the team. Despite Nelson scoring a 73 and having another consistent round, high numbers from the rest of the team put the Golden Eagles in an unwinnable situation. While the team may not have performed as they hoped, Bailey was once again pleased

by Nelson’s individual effort. “(Nelson’s) consistency off the tee was a huge advantage on a course as demanding as Rich Harvest Farms,” Bailey said.

“He played the par fives in four under on the week and finished second in the field with 38 pars.”

The team will have the next weekend off before playing in the Windon Memorial Classic Sept. 21-22 in Skokie, Ill. The tournament, hosted by Northwestern University, will once again feature numerous teams from power conferences. Sanchez believes that while there were many individual successes, the team still has a lot of room to grow over the next couple weeks.

“There is plenty of work to do to prepare us for the next tournament,” said Sanchez. “The flaws in our games from this tournament show us what we need to perfect to get to the next level.”
