MU, UWM prepare for 43rd MKE Cup match By Jack Goods

The vacant lots around Marquette University are being transformed into homes for cherry, apple, plum and
peach trees. When Stark Bros Nurseries & Orchards Co. donated 7,000 fruit trees to Growing Power, Milwaukee County adopted the nonprofit into its food program that was passed June 25. The new program called Sowing, Empowering and Eliminating Deserts of Food (SEED) involves collaboration and partnerships with several nonprofits including Growing Power, Hunger Task Force and
University of WisconsinExtension. Through a threepart approach, Milwaukee County hopes to address the issue of food deserts and food insecurity. According to Milwaukee County Supervisor Jason Haas, UW-Extension will take on nutrition education. “Nutrition education makes a big difference in fighting malnutrition and hunger in all corners of the county,” Haas said
in an email. “It is a key part of eliminating food deserts.” UW-Extension is directly funded by Milwaukee County. Hunger Task Force received a grant of $68,200 to purchase and implement a mobile micro market. Julie Frinzi, communications manager at Hunger Task Force, said the grand opening of the mobile market is coming soon.
When the Marquette soccer schedule is released, the Milwaukee Cup is always a match to circle. The matchup, featuring crosstown rivals Marquette and UW-Milwaukee, is as competitive as ever thanks to the Golden Eagles’ rising program prestige. Marquette looks to retain the trophy Thursday night at Engelmann Field. The Milwaukee Cup, founded in 1973, has historically been dominated by the Panthers. UWM has won 28 to Marquette’s 11, but the Golden Eagles have fared well in recent years. They’ve won four of the last seven matchups. “Throughout the world, soccer is about derbies,” Marquette head coach Louis Bennet said. “You go to Argentina, Spain, Italy, England — it’s Manchester City blue or Manchester United red… There are people in the city that are either one or the other.” “Winning the cup is having a part of local college history,” Bennett explained. Last season Marquette won 2-0 at Valley Fields thanks to first half goals from then-redshirt freshman Jack Alberts and then-redshirt junior C. Nortey. The shutout was the fourth in a run of six straight blank sheets. This year’s match will be set across town, as the series switches universities each year. The last time the visiting team raised the Cup was in 2010. “After competing in my first Milwaukee Cup last year, I have experienced that it is not just a derby match.” redshirt senior David Selvaggi said in an email. “It brings the entire Milwaukee community together for a great game. What the Milwaukee Cup means to me is having the honor and opportunity to have the chance to be the best team in Milwaukee and have the bragging rights.”

First year as a
Police change has effect on campus climate By McKenna Oxenden
mckenna.oxenden@marquette.edu
As students settle into the new semester, the Marquette University Police Department is adjusting to its first school year of operation. Formerly the Department of Public Safety, MUPD was
officially commissioned as a police force May 1. The group worked throughout summer to train and swear-in 36 officers. “We knew we were going to need some time to adjust and adapt to our new role, so the summer was a perfect time to make the transition,” MUPD Chief Paul Mascari said in an email. Students have seen MUPD at work throughout the first week of school. “We want the pedestrians to know that they have to be careful when walking around
force
campus,” Mascari said. “People tend to get easily distracted by their phones or music and not pay attention to the traffic in the area.” University President Michael Lovell said the university saw an immediate impact from MUPD. He said crime on campus during summer 2015 was reduced by 47 percent, compared to summer 2014. Mascari said MUPD has focused a significant amount of attention on traffic safety. Officers are specifically attentive to those who are
speeding, failing to yield to pedestrians or driving drunk. Farrah Masri, a freshman in the College of Engineering, said MUPD gives campus a safer and more structured feel. “It’s like moving surveillance,” Masri said. “Someone watching you from afar but not in a creepy way.” However, Masri questioned the force when she was on campus for the Freshman Frontier Program during summer. “I feel like I noticed some See MUPD, Page 6

Business dean plans facility changes Additional ideas include advisory board, projects By Laura Litwin
laura.litwin@marquette.edu
Brian Till is beginning his first school year as dean of the College of Business Administration after assuming the position July 13. Till was previously dean of the Williams College of Business at Xavier University and held marketing faculty positions at Drexel University and Loyola University-Chicago. He also spent seven years as chair of the marketing department at Saint Louis University. Till said his experience teaching classes while studying for his MBA at the University of Texas at Austin spurred his interest in an academic career. “That ignited my love for teaching, which is ultimately what led me to leave industry and go the academic route,” Till said. Although Till has only been with Marquette for seven weeks, he has big plans for the college. Replacing the current business school building and relocating the college to a more contemporary environment have become priorities for the new dean. “The classrooms are not as student-and-instructor-friendly as we might like, both from a technology standpoint and a space, set-up standpoint,” Till said. “The offices for faculty are in odd locations that make it more difficult for students to

have access to the faculty and for the faculty to be connected with each other.” Some students agree that a new space for the business college would be a welcome and necessary change. “I think it’s an old buildinga lot of complaints, especially compared to the other buildings on campus,” said Ryan McDonald, a senior in the College of Business Administration. Nathan Bowen, a senior in the College of Engineering who is currently taking business
classes, said the importance of having up-to-date facilities helps education outcomes. “I think having good, quality facilities are always important for the ranking for the school,” he said. “That’s obviously one of the big reasons of trying to have state-of-theart facilities for whatever your particular discipline is.” In addition to relocating the business school, Till said he has a variety of ideas to raise the college’s visibility at Marquette and in the surrounding
community. These ideas include: The successful placement of graduate students, an increase in community projects for all business students and strengthening the college’s advisory boards. Till said there are many ways to increase the reputation and visibility of the college. “There’s not one, silverbullet solution,” he said. “It’s really making steps in many different directions.”

Title IX investigation resolved with agreement University and OCR arrive at a settlement By Julia Pagliarulo
julia.pagliarulo@marquette.edu
Marquette entered a voluntary resolution agreement with the Office for Civil Rights on June 4 after a former female student filed a complaint with the OCR alleging she was harassed by a former male student, said University Spokesman Brian Dorrington. The U.S. Department of Education’s OCR states resolution agreements must include several aspects to be valid. They need to detail a course of action that will remedy the discrimination in the specific case when implemented. A resolution agreement can be reached at any time before the conclusion of an investigation if the investigated party expresses interest in the resolution and OCR determines a resolution is the appropriate course of action. “The majority of these steps involve reviewing existing policies, training programs and awareness efforts that already are a significant point of emphasis on our campus,

and documenting these existing efforts to OCR,” Dorrington said in an email. Marquette has also distributed 2,200 posters across campus detailing sexual harassment, discrimination and sexual misconduct pro-
cedures and options over the past couple weeks. The poster reinforces Marquette’s intolerance of these incidents occurring on or off campus and encourages students and employees to report all occurrences to the Marquette Police Department or
a Title IX coordinator. Additionally, the poster provides a list of resources to assault victims. Dorrington said when necessary, the university will make revisions to ensure a safe campus environment. These measures include an email to
every student that has a link to the university’s harassment policies and an outline of what they should do if they believe they or others were subjected to sexual harassment. Additionally, the university’s revisions involve documentation to OCR that existing face to face training sessions with students contains information on sexual harassment and that an existing campus-wide working group on sexual misconduct prevention includes review and feedback on the university’s sexual harassment policies. “Marquette University has been working extensively to educate our students about the risks and harm that acts of harassment can have on campus,” Dorrington said. “Campus safety is our number one priority and we will continue to do everything possible to ensure the well-being of our Marquette community.” The Huffington Post has released a list of schools under Title IX reviews at the end of last May that they received through a Freedom of Information Act request. Marquette is one of 31 schools under investigation for sexual harassment for possible mishandling of a sexual harassment case that did not include sexual assault.
Mental health gift used for research, awareness Donation from Kubly family aids Health Sciences By Maredithe Meyer
maredithe.meyer@marquette.edu
The College of Health Sciences announced in January that it received a $5 million gift to create the Charles E. Kubly Research Center, enabling the college to better understand mental health and search for its cure on a biological basis. William Cullinan, dean of the College of Health Sciences, said the college’s research is becoming more “cutting edge” since accepting the gift. “We need cures that work for everybody or for more people, cures that work faster,” Cullinan said. “We just don’t understand the brain well enough to do this yet.” Michael and Billie Kubly donated the gift in their son’s honor to support and strengthen the
university’s neurological research. Charles Kubly took his own life after suffering from depression. The center will be named after Kubly and is considered a molecular and cellular core facility -- a laboratory exposing the 12 faculty members to newest neurological research technology. The gift enables the college to hire strategically additional experienced faculty members. Each of these neurologists specializes in one of the main aspects of mental health: motivation, emotion and cognition. Cullinan said these areas are the three entryways to understanding and curing mental illness. He also said the faculty’s collaboration and specific insight separates Marquette’s research center from those of other universities. “There are a lot of people doing neuroscience research in this domain, but few have assembled a group that has covered the three primary bases that are likely to unravel the clues to what is going on (in the brain),” Cullinan said. Undergraduate and graduate
health science students have the opportunity to work with and learn from the scientists as laboratory research assistants. Hannah Podvin, a senior in the College of Health Sciences, volunteered as a researcher in the physical therapy department from her freshman to junior year. She worked on her doctoral research project under Stacy Stolzman, an adjunct instructor at the department. Podvin said in an email she thinks the Kublys’ gift will “allow Marquette students to be the difference in not only discovering more, but in helping to fight the stigma that plagues mental illness.” The donors founded the Charles E. Kubly Foundation in 2003 to raise awareness about depression, remove its stigma and to improve mental health resources. Marquette’s Active Minds Club is no stranger to the foundation’s work. Club President Markie Pasternak said the Kubly Foundation is supporting Active Minds in an upcoming mental health awareness event. The College of Health

Dean of Grad School selected, discusses ideas Plans include longterm partenership, strong curriculum By Natalie Wickman
natalie.wickman@marquette.edu
After a search lasting around five months, Douglas Woods will become dean of Marquette’s Graduate School on Jan. 1, 2016. Woods worked as an associate dean of the University of Wisconsin-Milwaukee’s Graduate School for 14 years. He comes to Marquette from Texas A&M University where he was the department chair and a psychology professor. When Marquette’s Graduate School dean position became available, Woods said he couldn’t pass on the opportunity to apply. After his interview in July, Woods said he was very impressed with Marquette’s students and faculty. “Lot of opportunity for growth and energy,” Woods said about the university. “I knew I would get to be at a place that is really going places.” Woods was also drawn to the position because of UW-Milwaukee’s former chancellor, University President Michael Lovell.
“Loved him at (UW-Milwaukee),” Woods said about Lovell. “Watched what he had done at (UW-Milwaukee) and loved the energy he was bringing.” Woods said his first year as dean will involve getting to know Marquette and setting up conditions where the faculty are innovative, graduate programs are always being strengthened and providing training that is consistent with available jobs. In the long term, Woods said he wants to build partnerships with the communities, businesses and government organizations in the area. “I want to work together with anybody who wants our students to succeed,” Woods said. “I want to make sure what we’re offering is consistent with the job market.” Woods also wants an increase in students, to get more support for those students, to make the curriculum stronger and ensure Marquette students are sought-after in the job market. He isn’t only concerned with Marquette students, though. He said it’s important to reach out to other institutions like UWMilwaukee and work with them to offer Milwaukee the best graduate students possible. Marija Gajdardziska-Josifovska, Woods’ colleague and dean of
UW-Milwaukee’s Graduate School, said Woods is a honest man with integrity, which she believes are necessary leadership qualities. “He is always willing to look for the best for students and programs,” Gajdardziska-Josifovska said. “He really looks at the big picture and he is a dynamic guy with lots of ideas.” Gajdardziska-Josifovska wrote a recommendation letter for Woods, praising him for his work at UW-Milwaukee and explaining how he would successfully fill the Marquette dean position. “Wood’s experience in (UWMilwaukee’s) Graduate School was very successful not only because he is a well-respected scholar who continued to teach and work on his research, but because of his proactive and inclusive management and leadership style,” Gajdardziska-Josifovska said in the recommendation letter. “I have a very high regard for (Woods,) both as a person and an administrator,” said Michael Liston, a philosophy professor who worked with Woods at UWM. “I am really excited about the position,” Woods said. “(Milwaukee’s) a great city and there are so many opportunities for our programs.”

Grant for sexual violence prevention, advocacy Organization plans to assist survivors with new model By Nicki Perry
nicolette.perry@marquette.edu
Marquette University received a grant from Aurora Health Care on July 31 as an aid to develop programs that focus on sexual assaults and helping survivors. “One of our primary goals with this grant is to increase our advocacy,” said Emily Schumacker-Novak, Coordinator of Advocacy Services and Sexual Violence Prevention and Education. “We’re really, really grateful for the grant fund.” In total, the university received $209,429. SchumackerNovak said there are several matters toward which she plans to put the grant money. “I’m the only person on-call 24/7 right now,”
Schumacker-Novak said. “With this grant, we’re able to hire a second person to serve a fulltime advocacy role.” Other plans include increasing men’s programming, integrating response, education, and advocacy for students, sharing resources across newly convened consortium of schools and building their capacity for a four-year education and prevention model. “I think we put together a strong application,” Schumacker-Novak said. “We thought critically about how we’re going to do sexual violence prevention on campus.” Twenty-two other organizations, colleges and universities also won grants from Aurora including University of Wisconsin-Milwaukee, University of Wisconsin-Parkside and Sojourner Family Peace Center. To apply for a grant, Mark Huber, senior vice president of social responsibility for Aurora, said there were certain criteria that had to be met. Under the
request for proposals in this category, it had to be a (Section) 501(c)(3) university or college that had a minimum population size of 4,000 students. Huber said once the list of finalists was narrowed down, an advisory board composed of leaders in the organization came together to choose the winners. “There were a number of sub-criteria,” Huber said. “We looked at all the organizations and looked at what impact the programs would impose as well as the quality of impact.” Huber said the advisory board had to look at the details of each application to divide the $3.4 million in grant money. Each organization asked for different amounts which far exceeded the funding that was available. “We’re very excited about the Marquette University grant,” Huber said. “(Marquette) submitted an application that the committee felt would be successful in making an impact.”

The beginning of this school year marks the 100th volume of The Marquette Tribune, and as such, there are changes to our regular
design. You’ll notice a different masthead on the front page and below are clippings from different years of our history. You can expect other events and throwback content throughout the year. We hope you have as much
fun flipping through the crazy things people covered a century ago as we had going through the university archives to find them for you. Our staff takes pride in being part of the rich history of this paper, and we hope we
don’t sully its reputation in our continuing efforts to bring you campus news. This year is an exciting time to be a member or consumer of student media since we have an abundance of changes coming your way. We think they’ll position this group
for success in the years to come. Here’s to 100 great years of The Marquette Tribune and 100 more, no matter the form it’s in.

The police force started with 19 sworn-in officers and gained 17 more in August. DPS officers are employed by MUPD and they continue to monitor campus. As officers leave the university, Mascari said MUPD will continue to evaluate whether or not to add more sworn-in officers.
“As we move along in the semester, we will be making sure we continue to maintain and strengthen many of the excellent relationships we worked hard to build as Public Safety,” Mascari said in an email. Julie Trotter, a sophomore in the College of Health Sciences, said she’s happy with the the police force in place. “As someone who lives on the edge of campus at Mashuda, I feel extra safe walking back to my dorm at night now,” Trotter said. Mascari said he is pleased with the transition, describing the group’s progress as very well so far. “We are here to work together to solve problems and we can’t do our job effectively without the support of the community,” Mascari said in an email. “When things hit the fan, it’s going to be better to have (MUPD),” said Eric Fellin a freshman in the College of Arts & Sciences.

SEED: Nonprofits cultivate vacant lots Growing Power’s role in the three-part approach to the program overlaps with almost all of the program’s parts through community gardening, food production, preparation and preservation. Will Allen, founder and CEO of Growing Power, said they have seen a lot of community engagement since they began planting about two months ago. He said that he hopes to eventually hire people in the neighborhoods to help harvest the trees and create long-term employment. “We’ll be pruning and watering the trees,” Allen said. “Then we will be harvesting the fruit which is where some of the jobs will come in later on.” It will take about three years until the trees are ready for harvest and can be marketed locally. Fifteen lots have been planted with compost in preparation of
harvest. According to Allen, a majority of the lots are in the Milwaukee’s north side and about 50 percent are within 10 minutes of Marquette’s campus. Allen said he was excited the lots have access to water, thanks to nearby functional hydrants. Allen said the soil in the vacant lots has been difficult to work with, which is why Growing Power is planting with compost instead. This tactic will also help the plants survive the harsh winters. Growing Power’s relationship with Marquette University began when Allen proposed the Institute for Urban Agriculture and Nutrition to University President Michael Lovell when Lovell was chancellor at UWMilwaukee. Lovell’s involvement with sustainability will not stop at Marquette. This March he announced at a breakfast with the MilwaukeeBusiness Journal the possibility to bring a
supermarket to campus. In relation to SEED, Milwaukee County is giving 10 acres of land to Growing Power for some of the fruit trees. Allen said he had recently received a phone call from the county that a piece of land had been found, but was unaware of its location. A total of $65,900 in grants will be given to groups who lease the land for community gardens and food production. Growing Power, UW-Extension, the Urban Ecology Center, the Victory Garden Initiative and Milwaukee Urban Gardens are among the groups who have been asked to lease land from the county. Allen said there is no foreseen limit in the amount of lots to be harvested in the next three years since there are many in need of attention in Milwaukee.

Comm and nursing interim deans move forward McCarthy and Garner not slowed by temporary role By Gary Leverton
gary.leverton@marquette.edu
Two of the university’s eight colleges are headed by interim deans, both of whom started their roles during the summer. Donna McCarthy became interim dean of the College of Nursing Aug. 10, and Ana Garner started as interim dean of the College of Communication May 28. They respectively replaced Margaret Callahan, who announced her resignation June 29, and Lori Bergen, who announced her resignation April 8. Once chosen, both of the colleges’ new deans are slated to start next fall. The formation of a search
committee to find the Communication dean was announced June 3, and a Nursing dean search committee has yet to be announced. “Don’t lose ground and keep moving forward” is the mantra McCarthy is using for her time as interim dean. She hopes the next dean will be chosen by spring 2016. Her interim dean contract expires next July. McCarthy said she’s working to be the face of the college and maintain its momentum. One of the job’s challenges for her is remembering to check her calendar frequently. “It’s a vibrant document,” she said. This isn’t Garner’s first time as the interim dean of her college. She also held the role from 2005 to 2006. The position includes supporting students and representing college alums and the larger Milwaukee area.
“Really getting to represent our college in a way that I don’t as a faculty member,” Garner said is her favorite part of being interim dean. “Getting to tell other people about the cool stuff here at Marquette and advocating for our college.” Garner said it’s challenging to be an efficient decision maker, especially when the job often requires her to make many decisions. “It’s like getting whiplash,” Garner said with a laugh. “But in a good way. I really like doing this. I am honored to have this opportunity and it has been a lot of fun.” Both Garner and McCarthy were professors before becoming interim deans. Garner teaches journalism and media studies. McCarthy teaching nursing and is the interim associate dean for research in her college.

How the board, president, provost work together By Benjamin Lockwood
benjamin.lockwood@marquette.edu
Board of trustees The board of trustees exists somewhat outside of the umbrella of university leadership, and is charged with fiduciary responsibilities, which include providing direction for Marquette’s long-term planning, goals and mission. The board is made up of elected volunteers, and includes the president of the university. It is the sole governing authority for Marquette.
President – Michael R. Lovell The president is the chief executive officer of the university, and handles all the day-to-day responsibilities of running the university. This includes providing oversight in academics, planning, finance, student affairs, enrollment, athletics, advancement and other areas.

New Haggerty director showcases exhibits Director from New Mexico returns home to Milwaukee By Thomas Salinas
thomas.salinas@marquette.edu
The Haggerty Museum of Art expects a big year under new Director and Chief Curator Susan Longhenry. Longhenry began her new role in August. She previously served as executive director of University of New Mexico’s Harwood Museum of Art. As a native of Milwaukee whose father graduated from Marquette, Longhenry said she feels like she came home. “Marquette has always held a very special place in my family’s heart,” Longhenry said. Her interest, she said, has always been to engage the community and visitors. “I enjoy working at a university museum because I have so much interest in education,” Longhenry said. “I was looking for an opportunity to come home and Marquette was the perfect fit.” The Haggerty Museum hopes to continue to connect with the Marquette community and become more visible this year. According to the museum’s website, the Haggerty’s mission is to better the intellectual and creative lives of the Marquette community through its artwork. Longhenry said Marquette students and faculty will always be her number-one priority. “I have not worked at a Jesuit institution but I am very inspired by the values of Marquette,”

Longhenry said. “I plan to work to really explore that.” The museum involves the Marquette community with its exhibitions. Longhenry said the university will influence some exhibitions that are slated for this fall. “The school is doing such interesting things that the community
should be engaged with,” Longhenry said. One example is the exhibition of a 3-D rendering of a 17th century Parisian cathedral. According to the museum website, Giuseppe Mazzone created the rendering at Marquette’s Visualization Laboratory, where he currently holds the position of Student-Centered Active Learning
Educator. “It’s a perfect example of something that is very intense academic work being done on campus,” Longhenry said, “My intention is to optimize what is happening on campus and then share it with our community.” The Haggerty Museum’s Curator of Education, Lynne Shumow, uses
exhibitions to work with different classes to help students receive a visual learning experience. “My goal is to make the art applicable to diverse areas of study,” Shumow said in an email. “Every class has a different goal, so different approaches are required.” In addition to these goals, Longhenry said she wants the Museum to become accredited by the American Alliance of Museums. “The Haggerty just turned 30, so it’s at a point where it deserves and warrants accreditation,” Longhenry said. She said accreditation will take about two to three years but they are looking forward to starting the process. “There is a terrific team in place here,”Longhenry said. “I’m looking forward to working with them on these initiatives to move forward.” This fall the museum will have four new exhibitions. Along with the 3-D rendering, they will include: Adi Nes’ “Biblical Stories,” Marc Chagall’s “Biblical Narratives in Print” and “What is Hispanic,” which was organized by Scott Dale, an associate Spanish professor. The exhibitions will run Sept. 17 through Dec. 23 at the Haggerty.

Wire Explains: Curriculum Is your schedule affected? Let us give you the facts By Devi Shastri
devi.shastri@marquette.edu
This fall marks the implementation of new course requirements for the College of Arts & Sciences, the College of Communication and the College of Professional Studies. Students will now need 120 credits to graduate with their degrees. “The board and the president’s office realized that there was no (university wide requirement) for how many credits you have to have for a major,” said Susanne Foster, the associate dean for academic affairs in the College of Arts & Sciences. “They decided to set it for the university at 120, which is standard across the country.” With fewer general course requirements, students can ideally take more classes that they are interested in. But changes this big can understandably cause a lot of confusion, especially when it comes to graduation requirements. So here is some clarification those of you it affects. It all took about a year. Foster worked for a year with students and faculty to determine what would be best for every group involved. She said the changes have been wellreceived by most. Still, as with any change, there has been a “fair amount of trepidation” for some faculty members. But the changes are not as inyour-face as one would think. Remarkably, no classes will be lost in the transition, even with students not needing to take as many classes. Sections of certain introductory courses might be cut or added as needed, but Arts & Sciences Dean Richard Holz said the college is letting students “vote with their feet” when it comes to choosing the classes they think are important to them. Holz also cited history and language courses as an area ripe for improvement. Those classes have reduced sizes,

Alumnus and student create ballroom club on campus New organization hopes to increase followers By Paige Lloyd
paige.lloyd@marquette.edu
Now that O-Fest has finished, it is the time for freshmen and other new students to try the many clubs and organizations offered on campus. There is one club that may be of interest but is still in the works: ballroom dancing. Tony Sun, alumnus of Marquette, brought this idea to light after many years of experience. Sun spent his time as a graduate student at Purdue University as a member of the dancing team where he fell in love with ballroom dance. After graduation he came back to Milwaukee with the hopes of teaching ballroom dance lessons and finding a new way to practice with others. Sun reached out to current students by posting on the Class of 2016 Facebook page. Kathryn Knight, a junior in the College of Nursing, was informed of the post by a friend and immediately jumped on board. “My friend sent me a screenshot and was like, ‘oh my God, you have to start this,’” Knight said. As a leader of the new club, Knight is the student representative for the group on campus, and takes instruction from Sun along the way. With experience in tap, ballet, jazz, ballroom dance and hip-hop, Knight brings her own set of skills to help teach incoming members. “As cheesy as it sounds, the
music takes you to a whole new place when you perform,” Knight said. “You get the overwhelming feeling of accomplishing something you have been working so hard to do.” According to Knight, prior dance experience is not necessary. Anyone who is passionate about dance can join. The club plans to meet twice a week with hour-long practices. Special guests will be welcomed as well to help students gain a better understanding of ballroom dancing. As the club becomes more experienced, Knights hopes to host a showcase with Dance Inc. or Hype, which are additional dance organizations through Marquette. In the future, she hopes to get the club
involved with the competitive circle of ballroom dancing in the city. Knight’s interest for ballroom dance began when she took lessons at a company in junior

dancing when studio prices are so expensive.” With 21 students already signed up, Ballroom Club awaits its approval at the beginning of December. Since they were not able to attend O-Fest, Sun and Knight continue to encourage more students to join as the club takes form and take on larger roles.
Sun hopes to find instructors who specialize in ballroom dance to help teach students. Andrew and Michelle Tate, owners of Brew City Ballroom, have already agreed to assist the club. The couple began their teaching at the University of Illinois and love instructing young people how to ballroom dance. With the support of local dance studios and a strong student following already, Knight and Sun look forward to teaching students new skills and the growth of the Ballroom Club at Marquette. “We plan to start off small and focus on picking up on the moves during practices,” Knight said. “Once we get the ball rolling we can show campus what we accomplished. We hope the other dance companies at Marquette will extend the invitation for us to perform with them as well”

Four surprising tips for an unpaid internship Believe it or not, there are benefits beyond money By Alexandra Atsalis
alexandra.atsalis@marquette.edu
Most summer activities college students do can be placed on a scale that has selfless volunteering on one end and profitable paid work on the other. I spent my summer somewhere in the middle, in the illusive territory known as the unpaid internship. Unpaid internships have a notorious reputation for being essentially slave labor in a cubicle. Considering that participants receive neither the warm, fuzzy feeling that comes with volunteer work, nor the coveted cash that comes with a job, the perception is understandable. However, despite the financial shortcomings, something can be gained from all unpaid internships if you know how to make the best of the experience. Lucky for you, I’ve already done the hard work and figured out a few tips to follow.
Anticipate having low motivation
It’s no surprise that people both work harder and are
happier about it when they have an incentive to do so. For example, standing around, doing nothing is awesome when you get paid, but doing it for free just seems like a waste of time. Expectedly, staying focused is a huge problem among unpaid interns. Even if you have a good work ethic and love your internship like I did, your motivation will inevitably plummet. It’s just impossible to stop the little voice in your head from reminding you that there’s no paycheck at the end of the week. It’s important to anticipate feeling lazy, because if you’re unprepared, then restoring your motivation is difficult. Accepting that you’ll occasionally have low motivation will help you think of ways to counteract it.
Get Creative
Interns are given notoriously dull and monotonous tasks, like sending mass emails or doing data entry. I had my fair share of this kind of work and discovered that the best way to handle it was to get creative whenever possible. Whether this means fashioning a tiny dunce cap for your incredibly slow office computer, or putting a sign on your desk that reads “Intern Habitat: kindly do not feed the interns,” there’s always different ways to make things a little
more fun. You’d be surprised how something as small as adding a joke at the end of the last email of the day can improve your personal morale.
With a great blazer comes great responsibility
Despite my lowly intern status, I occasionally would indulge myself by wearing a blazer to work. It turns out that appearing so convincingly professional can be both a blessing and a curse. On the plus side, strangers are nicer to you when you wear one. They assume you know exactly what you are doing and that you are in a higher position. The problem is that this can sometimes lead to confusion and embarrassment. For me, this most notably occurred when a TV news crew nearly interviewed me, mistaking me for someone more important. My horrified face was priceless, and the reporter laughed for a good 10 minutes after I confusedly stuttered and stammered incoherently before blurting out, “I’m just the intern!”
Talk to your professional colleagues
The importance of networking gets drilled into our pre-professional minds so often that I worry it’s literally leaving holes in my

brain. If it’s not the number-onefavorite buzz word of people in the real world, then it must be in the top 10. Networking is certainly something to take advantage of during unpaid internships. A lot can also be gained by talking to the professionals you’re working with for the sake of genuine learning and not just for ulterior network-expanding motives. Listening and asking questions is
the only way you can learn about your field and get valuable insider tips you won’t learn about in class. At the end of the internship you may not be financially richer, but you will have certainly accumulated more knowledge. You never know, in the long run this may prove to be even more profitable.
“Review” humor exceeds small viewership

Andy Daly and Megan Stevenson star in Comedy Central’s “Review.”
Protaganist Forrest MacNeil critiques real-life situations By Dennis Tracy
dennis.tracy@marquette.edu
“Review” is nothing like anything else on television. This is a series that is disturbing, hilarious and strangely heart breaking. Forrest MacNeil (Andy Daly) is a former film critic that decided movies were too boring to review, and wondered what it would be like to review various life experiences. He promises his audience that he will review any suggestions people will throw at him, and then grade it on a fivestar scale afterward. In the first season, MacNeil went to space, became addicted to cocaine, divorced his wife, went into a mental institution and ran around Los Angeles fighting crime in a Batman costume. Unlike the show’s
Australian counterpart, this version does not hit an imaginary reset button at the end of each segment. MacNeil lives with his consequences, sending him into a crippling depression, which causes him to quit and attempt to run away from it all. Andy Daly not only led “Review” to be one of the most incredible pieces of tragicomedy since FX’s “Louie,” but made the show one of the best Comedy Central has aired since “South Park.” The show returns for its second season as MacNeil’s boss Grant (James Urbaniak) discovers him and they work out a deal. If any task someone gives is overwhelming, MacNeil can hit the veto button to opt out of it. Sadly, that veto button does not seem like much help as MacNeil can only veto a task twice. However, he has yet to do so. He probably should have, considering already this season he has been shot, set his father’s house on fire, blackmailed his
girlfriend and was falsely accused of setting a sorority house on fire. The second season continues to explore MacNeil’s troubled life. He says he has moved on from divorcing his wife, but in reality, he still feels shameful that reviewing life experiences is his career. In the segment “Haunted House,” he travels back to his original home where his wife and son lived because he believes it is haunted. It is an excuse for MacNeil to allow himself to take a nostalgic trip back to his former life, and wonder how he ended up living with his dad. I do admire how he puts his own series before himself or his family, but at what point will enough be enough? It’s conflicting because the longer he continues the series, the more he digs himself in a hole. Yet, it’s rather amusing to see someone go to such great lengths to cover something like living life as a small person. One of my favorite parts of the show is how clueless he is when it comes to technology and how society is out to get MacNeil as well. He does not know how to operate Google without asking his secretary (Tara Karsian) for help, his own question machine fails him and to top it off people think MacNeil might be crazy. Let’s take the “There All is Aching” segment from last season as an example. A viewer on Twitter sent MacNeil a request to review what is it like to take a bubble bath, but the question machine popped it up as a request to review, “There All is Aching.” MacNeil could have asked if something was wrong with the machine as, “There All is Aching” does not make sense grammatically, yet he went ahead and tried to review it. MacNeil managed to find himself in a mental institution. He also kidnapped a police officer and held him
ransom. Another example includes the time MacNeil created his own cult. His girlfriend eventually took over as the leader and banished him after an argument about how he came into power. If his own cult wouldn’t follow him anywhere, how does he expect someone to support his own profession? At the end of the day, he is just trying to search for meaning in his life, and how to live it to the fullest. As excellent as this show is, it seems like no one knows about its existence. The show has extremely low ratings with the highestrated episode this season marking at a little more than 350,000 people. The clips uploaded to
YouTube and Comedy Central’s website are lucky to hit 10,000 views. There is no excuse not to watch it, especially when Comedy Central currently has both seasons available for streaming on its website. This might not be a show for everybody as it continues to dive into dark places, and often times is a very ridiculous series. We are in a decade of some truly fantastic comedies like “Broad City,” “Drunk History,” “Key and Peele” and “Nathan for You.” “Review” deserves to be celebrated in Comedy Central’s lineup and will be talked about by critics for years to come.

Sun Is Shining by Axwell and Ingrosso This peppy jam is the product of the remaining members of Swedish House Mafia, Sven Axel Christofer Hedfors and Sebastian Ingrosso. With uplifting lyrics about finally seeing the light after a rough start, this DJ duo promises clear skies and a bright future.
Be Right There by Diplo and Sleepy Tom Take this tune as some assurance that you are not alone when it comes to taking on the college grind. DJs Diplo and Sleepy Tom mixed this track with a vocal sample from “Don’t Walk Away,” a song by hip-hop soul group Jade that debuted in 1992. Not only does this song seek to comfort, but it also offers an ideal beat to walk to, thus preventing tardiness.
What Do You Mean? by Justin Bieber Leave it to Bieber to be the first to ask what the heck is going on. This catchy song takes a dip back to the 1980s with Toto-like synthetic pan flutes leading the chorus and a lighthearted, anti-drop melody that is sure to help summer bleed into this fall semester as long as possible.
Losers by The Weeknd and Labrinth There are arguably few better ways to start a new school year than with brand new music. This anthem comes off hot and fresh from The Weeknd’s new album, “Beauty Behind The Madness.” With a worthy drop and get-stuff-done vibes, a refreshing song like this can be just what you need for your late afternoon motivation to finish that homework.

SummerThing! by Afrojack and Mike Taylor
In case you missed the memo, school is at it again. The leaves are turning fiery red, Wisconsin Avenue is no longer a summery ghost town and students like you and me are getting back into the groove of going to class. As the homework piles on and our schedules slowly become flooded with extracurricular activities, we will have to eventually slow down, relax and refocus. Here at the Wire, we have compiled some “see ya, summer, oh hey there, school” songs to make the transition a little less dissonant.
This track serves as the last attempt to keep summer around as long as possible. Afrojack and Mike Taylor express their longing for a relationship that started in the summer, but now have come to terms that it is ending and they will have to let go soon. With “Summerthing!” we get to say so long to the nostalgic sunny beaches and late-night bonfires while still dancing to this addictive tune.

Interactive piece on campus for limited time By Rachel Kubik
rachel.kubik@marquette.edu
The Haggerty Museum of Art was given the pleasure of holding the sculpture, “Breaking Grounds” by Marc Roehrle and Mo Zell, an architect partnership that they call “bauenstudio.” It is a part of the Current Tendencies Exhibition and was meant to respond to the site of the artwork. Roehrle and Zell used Marquette’s urban landscape to create a sculpture that fit and activated its setting. The Haggerty Museum found these artists locally; the
architect duo had worked on the East Side of Milwaukee before they were invited on campus and created the work. The associate curator at the Haggerty Museum, Emilia Layden, said that this piece of artwork was, “most visible to students and draws in the public’s attention.” It was made apparent that students cut across the courtyard outside the Haggerty Museum from the footprints in the snow seen last winter. The objective of this sculpture is to activate that pathway and provide human interaction with the artwork by touching, walking on and even smelling it; -- something most students usually don’t do on their walk to class. “Whenever I walk past
“Breaking Grounds,” I always see someone on or looking at the structure,” Layden said. “It is interesting to view the sculpture from different approaches: from the museum, the law library, the various staircases.” The polycarbonate’s reflective surface and the structure’s strange heights gives the sculpture a dynamic look. The public is able to explore the sculpture on their own and draws attention to the Haggerty Museum. “People often see the sculpture and wonder, ‘What is that?’, and then they take a closer look,” Layden said. “It acts as a beacon for the museum.” There was a dance and instrumental performance on “Breaking Grounds” Aug. 27. The Enso Collective group, directed by Joëlle Worm, brought the sculp-
on. This perspective of the trees will be especially tasteful on the human senses once fall hits Milwaukee – vibrant, color-changing leaves and chilly breezes. If you haven’t already, check out “Breaking Grounds” and experience the art for yourself. The sculpture has a different story to tell depending on the time of day due to the polycarbonate walls, which also guarantee a new experience each time. The sculpture is open for public interaction until early November.

Ditch your ramen for the new Tangled shop A build your own noodle restaurant opens near the Ivy By Thomas Southall
thomas.southall@marquette.edu
Among the new things appearing on campus, Tangled is what’s next for Asian cuisine. This new restaurant opened shop three weeks before the fall semester. The owner of the restaurant, Charlie Luo, said he was eager to get his business open to the public. Charlie wants his customers to have a unique experience each time they walk though the doors. “We are trying to do something new,” Luo said. The style of the place is
unique indeed. With neon green chairs and a funky carpet, I entered fully prepared to do the usual rounds — walk up to the cashier and choose an item from a large hanging menu that dictated what my taste buds were about to enjoy — but instead, I was handed a checklist with ingredients. I was surprised at the novelty of it. The checklist had options like beef bone broth and toasted rye noodle, wheat noodle and rye noodle. I admit to being a ramen noodle fanatic, but in reality, I didn’t know the differences between them. Noodles are noodles, right? About his decision to utilize this order experience, Luo said, “We set up the menu this way so that customers can actually experience, combine and make

We would like to actually give them choices and possibilities so they can try something new every time.” What do these customizable dishes mean for students? Tangled decided do a checklist ordering system because in Luo’s words, he wanted students to “surprise themselves” every time they have a hankering for noodles. With a wide variety of options such as four types of broths, three types of noodles, and a large list of extra goodness, the combinations are endless. I found a combination that tasted great. I ordered a regularsized bowl with wheat noodles, beef bone broth, hometown
sweet and spicy sauce, super greens and pure red chili, topped off with cooked miso egg. First of all, the presentation was great. The green lettuce wasn’t wilted and the noodles were well cooked. The miso egg was cradled on top of the greens, an option that I definitely recommend since it rounds out the dish in its taste and texture. The beef bone broth was packed with a thick meaty flavor. On top of that was the hometown sauce, which was delightfully spicy. It ended with the wheat noodles, the most prominent aspect that created the base for the entire creation. They were firm and juicy, absorbing all the liquid in the bowl. The meal left me feeling satisfied and ready to come back to try my hand at
combining another dish. Best of all, the meal only cost about $5.80, drinks excluded. Each dish at Tangled is prepared in the traditional way that results in a bowl with clear broth and little fat. The inspiration for Luo’s food is his gastronomical experience growing up in China, so what Tangled customers eat is very close to authentic Chinese cuisine. The hometown sweet and spicy sauce is directly influenced by his upbringing in China. Tangled offers students an escape from the overflow of sandwich shops and gives them a chance to try something new every time they visit. Tangled is open seven days a week from 10 a.m. to 10 p.m. on 1404 W. Wells St.

The Marquette Wire is your place for information of all sorts
MARQUETTE Once again we find ourselves at the threshold of a new year. With that, so begins another year of student media. Over the past two years, student media merged its mediums into one source: the Marquette Wire. Though it has been a struggle to work together so far, we are determined for this to work. Under the Wire name, we will do our best to create content that informs, entertains and interests the Marquette community. We are the source for all things Marquette University news, arts and entertainment, sports and opinions. Through the Marquette Tribune, the Marquette Journal, MUTV, Marquette Radio and our website, we deliver up to date, engaging and informative stories to our readers, viewers and listeners. There are a variety of innovative ideas we have for the 2015-’16 school year. We are pushing more multimedia content for stories. We will
incorporate podcasts in the coming weeks for each desk. We are producing interactive content on our website as well as creative infographics in our print publications. We will push for online content in addition to the shows for TV. One of the biggest changes for the year comes with the Tribune going from two editions a week to just one. Though it is sad to see production cut in half, there is much to celebrate because this is also the Tribune’s 100th anniversary. This is a huge milestone for student media. For one hundred years the Tribune has produced content and disseminated it to our community of Marquette readers. The Tribune anniversary celebration has just begun. Throughout the year, we will revisit Marquette history through the old editions of the Marquette Tribune with the help of the Marquette Archives. All of this will be done with the incredibly talented staff we

have for the year. We could not ask for a better group of people to take student media to new heights and they are sure to impress. They come from all walks of life from an undecided engineer taking photos to an assistant editor whose grandmother is the unofficial chef of the Marquette Wire. They will also put in a sickening number of hours this year with student media. Most of this time will be spent in Johnston Hall. Many meals will be missed, sleep deprivation will kick in and sanity will be on the brink. But it will all be worth it because of the amazing product we create. We know you have other choices for your Marquette related news, but we appreciate you choosing the Marquette Wire as your destination. This year is gearing up to be an exciting one so stay tuned for what’s in store.
The Marquette Tribune is preparing to celebrate its centennial, so in the spirit of nostalgia, I decided to take a look at its first paper, published Sept. 30, 1916. The world was a different place then. For two dollars, you could buy a hat, and for 10 cents, you could wear it to the movies (which, unfortunately, would not have sound until 1927). America had yet to endure the horrors of WWI, and Marquette still had a football team – what a time to be alive. They were very proud of themselves at the Trib in those first days. “Sold on its merits as a newspaper,” read the front page, I suppose to reassure the readers that it wasn’t a brochure. Clearly, we have lost some of that confidence over the past century, as we now feel the need to advertise our existence two or three times in every issue. My favorite part of the paper was the front-page story, which described an upcoming competition between the freshmen and sophomores. The freshmen were to paint their faces black (that wouldn’t fly today) and the sophomores red. Five large sacks of wet sawdust were lined up across the middle of the field; when the signal was given, each side would run to the middle and try to move to their side as many sacks as possible; they could use whatever means necessary, barring, of course, “unnecessary roughness” or the use of a weapon. If it doesn’t sound intense to you yet, everyone
got out of class early for this. As an RA in a sophomore residence hall, I can say confidently that this freshmen-sophomore rivalry remains intact. Though instead of battling over wet sacks, it is played out in dodgeball during the Golden Eagle Games and the Turkey Bowl between Schroeder and Abbottsford halls. I had hoped to find a new outlet for this rivalry with a dance-off after the Square Dance, but my friends are too sophisticated for that sort of a thing, and besides, the music was – how should I say this – bad. Hopefully, the freshmen reading this are picking up that whatever rivalry that does exist is entirely friendly. It says right in the 1916 sawdust rules, “The contest shall in no sense be construed as hazing.” Besides, the biggest theme throughout that first paper was not competition between the classes – it was a broader school spirit. “We can make this the livest year the old school has ever known if we want to do so,” raved another article. “The only thing that will do is ‘pep,’ and lots of it … After all, ‘pep’ is only a state of mind. It’s an inner feeling radiating from every student – freshman to post-graduate – a feeling of push and go-ahead that brooks no opposition.” Even though the sawdust game has passed with the typewriters and Vaudeville shows, this “pep” has survived the years. Welcome to Marquette, class of 2019. You are a part of an exciting tradition.

The American daze of higher education Jack Hannan Columnist A college diploma was once considered the pinnacle of academic achievement. In recent years, its true value has been called into question. In 2014, over half of U.S. college graduates had jobs that did not require a college degree -- a concerning statistic for us today with tuition costs at an all-time high. American students are taking out thousands in student loans and losing four years of wages only to work at jobs they could’ve obtained without attending college at all. However, the societal norm has not yet caught up with the data. Most Americans who have the means to enroll in higher education do so, despite the potential risks. We live in a time when financially well-off highschool graduates who do not enroll in four-year university programs are met with confused looks from friends and relatives who silently wonder what went wrong. The overwhelming majority of students that choose to attend college never really chose anything at all. It was ingrained in our minds from a young age that college was simply the next logical step after high school. This indifferent acceptance of higher education, rather than sought-after achievement of it, has resulted in a population of American college students that are completely apathetic about their schooling. “Active club member” means “on the email list.” “Not mandatory” means “not doing it.” Students invariably reply to “how’s school going?” inquiries with detailed descriptions of last weekend’s parties. I am by no means immune to this way of thinking. Just like any other form of work, school is often difficult to get excited about. Once students figure out the minimum effort needed to get by, they are unlikely to surpass it. But not taking full advantage of the education we pay so dearly for often leads to a rude awakening upon entering the job market after graduation. Making an investment in education financially equivalent to that of a small house, and then just sliding by on minimal effort is the career-stifling epidemic plaguing the millennial generation. Fortunately, I received this concerning wake-up call a little earlier -- while studying abroad in Antwerp, Belgium last semester and experiencing their drastically different education structure. Attendance was optional and four of my five classes had a final exam worth 100 percent of the grade, which meant there were no assignments. Initially excited, I quickly learned that less assigned work does not necessarily mean less work. I found that the difference between the American and European higher education structures lies with what the institution designates as “mandatory”
Tribune 15
Unpaid internships deserve the name: paradox of the century
and how they define the word itself. At Marquette, and the majority of American universities, classes will have a plethora of assignments, projects, quizzes and tests that make up the mandatory coursework. In the University of Antwerp, and many other European universities, your only grade is the one you receive on your final (and only) exam. In order to achieve the grades you want, a great deal of studying is obviously necessary, despite it not being expressly assigned. In America, the university dictates what is mandatory. We as students use the syllabus provided us as the giant to-do list that, if completed, will prepare us for the final. In Europe, students must decide for themselves how they are going to learn the material with which they are presented. Both structures in theory supply the same amount of knowledge to the student, but the European model forces students to take full responsibility for their education. To be clear, I am not saying that I dislike the American model. I, for one, am a chronic procrastinator who will gladly accept any and all “hand-holding” from professors who want to help me succeed. It is crucial to realize that the carefully designed courses and involved teachers within the U.S. higher education system are luxuries. If American students are able to approach their education with the same level of responsibility their European counterparts are forced to, they can take advantage of these luxuries and use them to propel themselves into successful careers. But if these luxuries are taken for granted, they can become a crutch students use to limp through college, eventually falling flat when forced to stand on their own in the real world.

Caroline Comstock Columnist Internship. I’ve always despised the word. Without regard to its actual definition, it sounds like it could be a term describing the highest honor at Girl Scout camp. The term ‘internship’ has morphed into something ambiguous: from a glorified camp counselor to a junior associate given complex financial analysis responsibilities. However misleading the job title, most “internship” positions entail cash coming your way and a socalled “foot-in-the-door.” Other students are not so lucky and fall victim to the beast that is the unpaid internship. The minute students step into their first professional development class, they are reminded that they are not special. For millennials who grew up earning ribbons for placing 8th on swim team, the identity crisis is certainly a hard pill to swallow. A college education with a price tag equivalent to that of a small mortgage is no longer enough to secure a job after graduation, and students must scramble to find ways to stand out among plenty of qualified candidates in an improving yet highly competitive job market. After all, what “entry level” job today does not require some previous professional experience? This is the paradox of the century. This reality has not been lost on companies looking for easy ways to cut costs. Why hire a full-time employee entitled to benefits when you can hire an eager college student for free instead? No cost-benefit analysis necessary. Despite crackdowns on unpaid internship practices nationwide, unpaid positions in the for-profit sector pop up on Marquette’s Career Manager and JobConnection from time to time. How does the law distinguish between interns and indentured servants to the white-collar corporate world? The U.S. Department of Labor is not entirely clear on where to draw the line either. The following six criteria must be met to be in compliance with the Fair Labor Standards
Act. “The internship, even though it includes actual operation of the facilities of the employer, is similar to training which would be given in an educational environment;” Ah, got it. Very black-and-white. “The internship experience is for the benefit of the intern;” Clearly. “The intern does not displace regular employees, but works under close supervision of existing staff;” This is my favorite one. If an unpaid intern is doing ANYTHING of benefit to the company, then they are, however indirectly, displacing the need for an employee, right? “The employer that provides the training derives no immediate advantage from the activities of the intern; and on occasion its operations may actually be impeded;” Why would anyone hire an intern if they did not benefit in some way? “The intern is not necessarily entitled to a job at the conclusion of the internship; and” But it would be nice. “The employer and the intern understand that the intern is not entitled to wages for the time spent in the internship.” The legality of unpaid internships in the for-profit sector is ambiguous. Not surprisingly, the issue has materialized in lawsuits brought on by interns against their employers in recent years. The most notable case was perhaps against Fox Searchlight when two production interns

for “Black Swan” felt the employer was benefiting more than they were when they spent their time picking up employee lunches and taking out the trash. Students accepting unpaid internships in the for-profit sector are led to believe that hours of filing will lead to a paid position in the future, and that they are better off taking an unpaid position than, say, waiting tables. According to the National Association of Colleges and Employers (NACE), 61 percent of the graduating class of 2014 had an internship or co-op experience during college. More than 65 percent of those holding a paid internship position received a full-time job offer, 39.5 percent of those holding an unpaid internship experience received an offer and 38.5 percent of those with no internship experience received an offer. So yes, you have a slightly higher chance of landing a full-time job with an unpaid position versus your nannying job, but some may prefer to take their chances and earn cash. Maybe it is time we consider other avenues to our dream jobs. When navigating through the black abyss of my future, I always keep one piece of advice in the back of my mind: “know your value.” When considering taking on an unpaid position, do your research and know your rights.

Top 10 teams in Marquette history Staffers ranked teams ranging from 1923 to 2013 By Wire Sports Staff @MUWireSports
To kick off our celebration of #Trib100, the Wire Sports staffers took a look at some of the best teams in Marquette athletics history. We considered record, postseason performance and notable statistics in our rankings.
10. 1999-2000 Women’s Basketball
Led by future M Club Hall of Famers Lisa Oldenburg and Abbie Willenborg, the Golden Eagles broke records all season. After tying a team record with
season, the team won its first ever BIG EAST championship en route to a Sweet 16 appearance in the NCAA Championship. Senior setter Elizabeth Koberstein was named a Third Team All-American, and freshman phenom Autumn Bailey was named AVCA East Coast Region Freshman of the Year.
8. 1936 Football Then known as the Golden Avalanche, Marquette’s prestigious football program was in the national spotlight all season. Led by All-American halfback Raymond “Buzz” Buivid and future NFL champion running back Ward Cuff, the squad began the season 7-0. That run included a 20-6 victory over St. Mary’s (California) in front of 55,000 fans at Soldier Field in Chicago which launched them to No. 4 in the AP Poll. Hall of Fame coach
the season.
6. 1923 Football One of three undefeated teams in program history, the Golden Avalanche finished 8-0 and No. 25 in the polls. Marquette’s biggest victory came over a thenundefeated Boston College side. All-American quarterback Red Dunn threw the go-ahead touchdown and then kicked the extra point for a 7-6 win. Between 1922 and 1923, the Golden Avalanche went 17-0-1 and outscored opponents 374-15.
5. 2013 Men’s Soccer Don’t let the 13-6-2 record fool you. This team, at times, looked unstoppable. Future pros Charlie Lyon and Axel Sjoberg held down the defensive side of the pitch, stifling opponents to 20 goals in 21 games and notch-
nation. Keepers Amanda Engel and Sophie Schunk combined for an NCAA-best 17 shutouts in 23 games played. The team went undefeated at home and never lost in conference play on their way to a BIG EAST Tournament title, finishing 18-2-3. Talk about dominant. They advanced to the Elite 8 in the NCAA Tournament for the first time in program history, where they fell in a double-overtime shootout that sent BYU to the Final 4.
3. 2002-2003 Men’s Basketball
Travis Diener. Robert Jackson. Steve Novak. Wait for it … Dwyane Wade. You probably know all about the last Marquette team to make the Final 4, but we’ll talk about how good they were anyway. After going 14-2 and winning Conference USA, the Golden Eagles made the NCAA
(Maurice Lucas, Bo Ellis, Earl Tatum, Marcus Washington, Jerry Homan and Lloyd Walton) and they sure played like it all season. On the strengths of a staggering defense and balanced attack, the Warriors knocked off five ranked teams on their way to the championship game. They averaged a pedestrian 70.7 points per game, but held opponents to 59.9 points per game, good for 4th best in the country. Five players averaged more than 9.4 points per game, led by Lucas’ 15.8 points and 10.8 rebounds per game. In the end, they couldn’t get past 29-1 North Carolina State, and the Warriors settled for runners-up.
1. 1976-1977 Men’s Basketball

22 wins and winning the Conference USA regular-season title for the first time, they received their fourth straight NCAA Tournament bid as a 7-seed. Terri Mitchell’s squad went 13-0 at home and peaked at No. 19 in the national polls.
9. 2013 Women’s Volleyball
After arriving in 2008, head coach Bond Shymansky spent years building a dynamic program that covered all the bases: height, defense, passing and serving. Five years later, that culminated in a fairytale season for the Golden Eagles. After going 25-5 during the regular
Frank Murray’s team went to the inaugural Cotton Bowl, where they lost to TCU, 20-6.
7. 1969-1970 Men’s Basketball
Here’s the thing about this team, which won the 1970 NIT Tournament: they were far too good for the NIT Tournament. After going 22-3 and finishing 8th in the AP Poll, legendary head coach Al McGuire turned down an NCAA Tournament invite because he was unhappy with the team’s bracket placement by the selection committee. Junior guard Dean Meminger carried the team for two separate 12-game winning streaks during
ing 10 shutouts. The Golden Eagles grabbed their first ever BIG EAST Tournament championship in a 3-2 thriller over Providence and earned the No. 9 overall seed in the NCAA Tournament, where they advanced to the Sweet 16 for the first time in team history.
4. 2012 Women’s Soccer We could probably write a book about how impressive this team was. Perhaps the most well-balanced team in Marquette history, the Golden Eagles were 7th in Division I with 2.57 goals per game while holding opponents to 0.55 goals per game, ranking 5th in the
Tournament as a 3-seed. They knocked off No. 2 Pittsburgh in the Sweet 16 and powerhouse 1-seed Kentucky in the Elite 8 on the back of a monstrous tripledouble from Wade. The junior guard averaged 21.5 points, 6.3 rebounds and 4.4 assists per game all season, earning him a consensus All-American selection, while the team averaged 78.5 points per game and shot 48 percent from the field and 77 percent from the free throw line.
2. 1973-1974 Men’s Basketball
Al McGuire’s first team to make the NCAA Championship game had six future NBA draftees
Marquette athletics’ history? The champs! After Al McGuire announced he would retire after the season, his defensive-minded Warriors took a ride in the magic pumpkin all the way to the NCAA Championship game against North Carolina. Junior guard Butch Lee and senior forward Bo Ellis led the charge as the Warriors played with only seven men in the championship game. The Butch-and-Bo show totaled 33 points and went 11for-12 from the free throw line as they knocked off the Tar Heels, 67-59 and helped tie the bow on McGuire’s legacy.

SuperFans Cup: Bennett seeks 200th collegiate coaching victory go beyond basketball Peter Fiorentino Assistant Editor “Oh how I want to be in that number, when blue and gold go marching in...” Every home soccer game, the SuperFans and Marquette Fanatics march from West Town Square to Valley Fields, beating drums and waving flags singing our own rendition of “When the Saints Go Marching In.” As the president of the SuperFans, I’m usually leading the aforementioned march, in my blue and gold Hawaiian shorts, screaming my head off down 16th Street, much to the amusement (or chagrin) of the onlooking engineering students and Milwaukee residents. Once the Marquette faithful settle into the Bird Cage, the bleachers behind the net at the Valley, there is non-stop noise. I call students out for sitting, for not making noise; it’s not social hour, it’s game time. We pull up the opposing team’s roster on our phones and go to work. Any time an opposing player is within earshot, we do anything to get their attention and distract them from play: ask them questions, flirt or let them know their sock is untied or their pocket fell out. Often, the victim is the opposing team’s goalkeeper. Because we have the keepers within 20 yards of us at all times, it can be easy to get under their skin. Athletic departments load tons of personal information onto their websites, everything from the athlete’s GPA, major, hometown, favorite movie or even nicknames. We make it our job to terrorize opponents and lift up the Golden Eagles. When a Marquette goal is scored, madness ensues. The flags wave, the drum beats and Dan Pfeifer’s iconic voice can be heard over the loudspeaker, “That Marquette goal was scored by...” A post-goal “Ole” is a crowd favorite, and a “USA! USA! USA!” chant usually follows after the kickoff. Between the “Ring Out Ahoya” at the beginning and end of each half, roll call at halftime or the “Peel Banana” dance, all of the tunes sung at the Valley echo loud and clear, letting the final notes carry over the Menomonee River. The end of every game is the most rewarding. Both the women’s and men’s teams come over to the Bird Cage to sing and say thank you. At the end of every celebration, a simple “thanks for coming down, we really appreciate it,” from each player makes the whole day worth it. Though it can be challenging at times to separate my work as an unbiased reporter for the Marquette Wire from fandom, I still love to stand behind that fence at the Valley, cheering for a Marquette victory. I’m proud to be in that number, when blue and gold go marching in.
The crosstown rivalry received extra juice when Bennett left UWM for Marquette before the 2006 season. A win tonight would have added importance for Bennett, since it would be the 200th victory of his career. “I think that would be a lovely piece of fluff around this game afterwards,” Bennett said. “I want (the players) to be winners for all the right reasons. How many games I’ve won should not be a motivational factor… We pretty much have to stay even- keeled and on-point, because this is going to be an unbelievably competitive game.” The Golden Eagles look to move above .500 after splitting their first road trip last weekend. They opened with a 1-0 overtime loss to No. 21 Oregon State, but ended the weekend on a high note with a 4-2 victory against Portland.
The Panthers come into the match with the same 1-1 record. Their most recent showing was a 4-0 loss to powerhouse No. 3 Creighton on Sunday. This UWM team is discovering life after losing three-time Horizon League First-team member and 2013 Horizon League Player of the Year Laurie Bell. Now with the Tusla Roughriders of the United Soccer League (USL), Bell finished 11th in program history in career points. Last season he had a second half penalty shot opportunity in the Milwaukee Cup, but was foiled by Charlie Lyon. Just as they lost a franchise great, the Panthers reloaded their roster quite successfully. A new generation of UWM soccer is spearheaded by a group of young forwards. Sophomore Reid Stevenson led the team with 11 points last season, while freshmen are already making
their mark. Matthias Binder has a goal and an assist while Francesco Saporto has also notched a goal. Canadian senior Declan Martinez is also a name to watch. He scored two goals in the Panthers opening game against Evansville. “It’s a young roster in one sense, age, but it’s an internationally laden team,” Bennett said. “What they’re doing is putting together something that is representative of the coach.” Who will be in goal for the Golden Eagles is still a mystery. The team has picked a starter for tonight, but Bennett doesn’t want to announce who it is until just before the 7 p.m. kickoff. Freshman Luis Barraza, named to the Big East honor roll this week, started both games last weekend. Redshirt junior Mac Wheeler came in for the last twenty minutes of the Portland match. Bennett said that they will pick the goalie who is not
only playing best, but who is also the best matchup for UWM’s style. Freshman Ruben Sanchez, who made his first start on the back line against Portland, will once again be in the starting lineup tonight. Bennett was very impressed with him last week. “I thought he was very good against Portland,” Bennett said. “Arguably, he might have been one of the best players on the field. He’s a soccer player first and foremost. He’s becoming a Marquette soccer player. He’s learning the nuances of how he plays.” Selvaggi, who has been rehabbing from a groin injury, told the Wire he is “at 100 percent.” He is a good candidate to get the start at forward for the Golden Eagles, along with Nortey.

The Golden Eagles hope to end their Friday woes. The team has lost both their Friday matches at the Valley.
Team seeks to hit ground running and bury Gophers By Dan Reiner
daniel.reiner@marquette.edu
It was just one year ago that the Marquette women’s soccer team met the Minnesota Golden Gophers on a stormy night in Minneapolis. It was a turbulent affair for the Golden Eagles, who lost the match, 1-0, and endured the long, quiet bus ride home to Milwaukee. On Friday night, the ladies will have a chance to avenge their loss as they face off against their Midwest foes once again. “There’s that little bit of extra motivation that maybe we can
erase what happened last year,” head coach Markus Roeders said. “It was a bit of an unfortunate loss that I thought, some ways, we probably had the better chances at winning.” In last year’s match, Marquette out-shot the Golden Gophers 129, including a 6-2 shots on goal differential. Gophers’ freshman forward Sydney Squires netted the golden goal in the 59th minute, while sophomore keeper Tarah Hobbs shut down Marquette’s attack for all 90 minutes. The Golden Eagles hope to get out to a fast start and not dig themselves a hole against the Gophers, much like they did in last Sunday’s victory against Boston University when they had three shots on goal in the first half. Having played Wisconsin in the
preseason and Michigan in Ann Arbor already this season, Roeders feels the team is prepared for their next Big Ten opponent. “We’re technical, but we can also be physical,” Roeders said. “I think we’re getting seasoned and I don’t think there’s going to be any team that’s going to surprise us.” His team should certainly have the Gophers’ number. Marquette returns 13 players who started or entered the match last year. Redshirt senior Jacie Jermier, who moved to the midfield last match, should be well-adjusted to equal the pace of last year’s game. Minnesota, who sits at 2-1-1 after two weeks of play, returns 10 players who appeared in last year’s match.
Whitlow shines in summer pro lacrosse league Redshirt senior was third on Redmen in points By Jack Goods
jack.goods@marquette.edu
The Marquette men’s lacrosse season ended with a BIG EAST tournament loss to Georgetown, but midfielder Kyle Whitlow’s year of lacrosse was just half way through. Whitlow, an Orilla, Ontario native, spent the summer with the Brooklin Redmen of Major Series Lacrosse, one of two top Canadian indoor summer lacrosse leagues. He finished third on the team in points with 15 goals and 21 assists in 18 games, trailing shoe-in future Hall of Famer Shawn Williams and Mike Teeter. “He progressed way above normal,” said Wayne Colley, the general manager and head coach of the Redmen. “When you go from Jr. A to our level it’s a great learning curve, and he adjusted quite well.” It was a real test for Whitlow, who aged out of the junior league. “It was a great learning experience,” Whitlow said. “I knew it would help me with my future in box lacrosse. Plus coming back here for my senior year, playing against men is definitely an advantage.” He battled some of the top players in the sport, including Brodie Merrill, his former coach at The Hill Academy. In addition to Williams and Teeter, the Redmen roster featured well-known lacrosse players like defenseman Derek Suddons, goalie Mike Poulin and forward Kiel Matisz. However, the team had a disappointing season, finishing fifth in the six-team league. Indoor lacrosse, also known as box lacrosse, is played on a turf field that has the same dimensions as an ice hockey rink. The smaller space emphasizes stick handling in confined spaces, and the much larger goalie equipment calls for pinpoint

shot accuracy. Box lacrosse hones a different set of skills, which can come in handy when transitioning back to the outdoor game’s larger field. Many collegiate coaches are recruiting Canadians for their heightened ability around the crease. “He had poise around the net,” Colley said. “He didn’t panic. He played as a kid in junior, where he became an adult. Now he’s a kid in an adults league. He retained that poise at our level.” Whitlow, a redshirt senior, enjoys switching between the two styles, as it always keeps him on his toes. He said it usually takes him a few days to
get back in rhythm, especially when it comes to scoring goals. He’s been playing box lacrosse far longer than outdoor, which isn’t uncommon in Ontario. He began playing when he was three years old. He’s been playing every year since, including stints with Orilla Kings at the Jr. B level and the Barrie Lakeshores at the Jr. A level. He was the Ontario Lacrosse Association’s Rookie of the Year while with Orilla. Brooklin selected him in the fourth round of the 2015 MSL draft. Colley considered him much more than a typical fourth rounder from the start. “I had him pegged in the top
three of the whole draft,” he said. “I traded my first round pick away, and (Whitlow and fellow draft pick T.J. Sanders) were still available. It was incredible... You’ve got to look at other people’s rosters to see how they will pick. I knew that (Whitlow and Sanders) would still be there.” Whitlow will be eligible for the National Lacrosse League draft next September. The NLL is the top level of indoor professional lacrosse, consisting of nine teams across the United States and Canada. If he’s selected, he’d join Tyler Melnyk and Andrew Smistad on the list of Marquette players selected in
the league’s draft. “It’s my expectation (to go pro),” Whitlow said. “I plan on entering the draft once I’m done here at Marquette. I’m not trying to think about it too much, but I know I definitely want to have that in my future.” He returns to the Golden Eagles in excellent shape, something coach Joe Amplo should be happy about. “He just told me ‘don’t get hurt,’” Whitlow joked. “Other than that, I think he’s happy that I’m keeping my stick in my hand all summer… It’s great to finish up the field season, get two weeks off, and then go right to box.”

Marquette put the volleyball world on notice last weekend with three statement victories. Now the degree of difficulty moves up a notch. After a surprising 3-0 performance in the Cyclone Invitational, the Golden Eagles will look to continue their winning ways this weekend. Ryan Theis’ squad will travel to Springfield, Mo. to compete with three other schools in the Mary Jo Wynn Invitational. The Golden Eagles are flying high after their stellar performance this past weekend. Middle hitter Meghan Niemann earned Big East Player of the Week honors for her efforts in Iowa. The redshirt junior amassed 32 kills and just four errors on a meager 52 attack

attempts in Marquette’s three games. She currently leads the Big East in hitting percentage. The Big East Conference also recognized outside hitter Taylor Louis. She won Big East Freshman of the Week after recording double-figure kill totals in each of Marquette’s three matches. Marquette will have to deal with Oral Roberts University, Miami and Missouri State this weekend. Both Missouri State and Miami are 3-0, while Oral Roberts is 2-1 after suffering a loss to Ole Miss in their season opener. Of Marquette’s three upcoming opponents, only Miami earned an NCAA Tournament bid last year. Miami will most likely be Marquette’s most difficult opposition this weekend. The Hurricanes return five out of seven starters from the 2014 team that made it to the second round of the NCAA tournament. A pair of sophomore All-ACC selections -- setter Haley Templeton and outside hitter Olga Strantzali -will lead the talented Canes in their effort to end Marquette’s unbeaten streak. Despite their recent successes, Marquette runs the risk of

falling victim to a trap game. All of the Golden Eagles’ opponents this weekend are competent, and overconfidence is always a danger with a young team coming off of unexpected successes. In order to be successful this weekend, Marquette needs to pay extra attention to
limiting their unforced errors. Last weekend, the Golden Eagles were inconsistent on that front. They logged 19 and 18 attack errors against North Dakota State and Iowa State, respectively, yet managed to keep their error count to 11 against Dayton.
Marquette’s game against Oral Roberts is at 4 p.m. on Friday, while the fixtures with Miami and Missouri State are scheduled for Saturday at 11 a.m. and 7:30 p.m. respectively.
