Students, alumna in Paris react to attacks Some narrowly missed being targets of Nov. 13 violence

MUPD working to better inform MU

Despite a small number of students in attendance at last week’s climate study discussion forums,

students have the opportunity to discuss the results until Dec. 2.

“We will continue to invite comments from the university community and in particular from Marquette’s student communities,” said William Welburn, chair of the Climate Study Working Group and associate provost for diversity and inclusion in the office of the provost, in an email.

Welburn said the climate study website provides a form for

individual submissions and the Climate Study Working Group will be available to facilitate discussions through Dec. 2 if groups of students are interested in having a forum.

In addition, Welburn said the Climate Study Working Group has had good responses to focused forums for student sub-communities. Welburn said the group received support from Latino students, Native American students

and LGBT students. A group of more than 60 African-American students attended a session to review the survey results and suggest action steps.

“This has been an opportunity for all students, and some students have felt the urgency to join discussions,” Welburn said. “We wanted to provide that opportunity.”

Carina Belmontes, a junior in the College of Business Administration who is studying abroad in Paris, said the city is tense after being rocked

by Islamic State terrorist attacks on Nov. 13.

“We are all trying our best to get back into our normal routines, but it’s difficult,” Belmontes said in an email.

“Every little thing makes everyone jump.”

Seven Marquette students were studying abroad in Paris during the attacks and all of them are safe, the university reported Nov. 13 on Twitter. The string of six coordinated attacks on different locations throughout the city ended up wounded 352 and killed at least 129, according to a CNN report.

“I think what I most felt was shock and nausea,” Belmontes said. “I remember sitting in bed, shaking, crying and feeling like I wanted to throw up.”

The College of Business Administration’s study abroad director sent a check-in email to Belmontes and the other students abroad less than an hour after the attacks started.

In addition, the study abroad director at the Paris School of Business, where Belmontes is studying, emailed all of the school’s international students and continued to follow up until everyone confirmed their safety.

The Marquette Police Department is exploring better ways

to use social media to inform the community about crime after a burglary and a robbery this past weekend.

MUPD said they will meet with Marquette’s Office of Marketing and Communication to develop the best way to share information regarding crime.

“We want to be careful that we aren’t inundating people that they become numb to the

point that they don’t recognize when there is something serious going on,” said MUPD Chief Paul Mascari.

Saturday, two subjects approached a Marquette student as she exited her building and attempted to forcefully remove her purse. MUPD was in the area and quickly detained the suspects.

The following day, two

subjects were allowed access into an apartment building where they knocked on doors until they gained entry into an apartment. They stated they had a weapon and then obtained property before fleeing. One suspect was immediately detained while the other was chased off campus but See MUPD, Page 3

Committee working to improve diversity Group focusing on recruitment, retention of Native Americans

By Clara Hatcher

clara.hatcher@marquette.edu

The Office of the Provost established the Committee on Recruitment and Retention of Native American and Underrepresented Minority Students to work on issues like the underrepresentation of Native American students on campus.

Provost Daniel Myers established the group, which had its first meeting in October.

William Welburn, associate provost of the office of institutional diversity and inclusion, co-chairs the group with Jacqueline Schram, governmental and community affairs associate in the Office of Public Affairs. There are 12 committee members.

Welburn explained the

Nov. 12’s “Dorm Fund provides capital for student startups” incorrectly stated Megan Carver is the fund’s associate director. It should have said she is the Kohler Center for Entrepreneurship Associate Director. It also incorrectly stated the fund was a collaborate effort including the Office of Innovation. It should have stated the Office of Research and Innovation.

committee aims to increase the presence of Native American students on campus, create greater engagement in Native American communities in Milwaukee and across Wisconsin and have Marquette’s presence as a university be felt in a positive way among Native American communities.

“We are charged with working on various issues to improve the climate for Native American students and actually really work on the commitment, historically rooted as it is, to Native Americans, Native American life, culture and history,” Welburn said.

This change also means more representation of scholarships and learning opportunities on campus in areas relating to Native Americans.

One committee member Jean Burke, interim dean of undergraduate admissions, said there will also be a change to Marquette’s application so that Native American students will be able to choose Native American affiliation.

“Little things like that can make

a difference,” Burke said, “We are broadening our vision of what we can do more, how we can do more to be inclusive with this group, reach out and get the conversation across campus.”

Burke also said as far as recruitment, it is always good to be aware and make connections with Native American alumni and Native Americans across the country.

Burke will meet with the Rev. George Winzenburg, president of Red Cloud Indian School in South Dakota this week. Winzenburg was previously president of Marquette University High School and pastor of the Church of the Gesu Parish.

Welburn said the committee is grounded in the need to recognize Father Marquette’s deep, historical relationship to Native American people as presented in the painting from which images were extracted for the university seal.

“We are early in our work, but there is a lot of goodwill around our table,” Welburn said about the committee members.

The committee members include

faculty, staff and students working together to create and present ideas to the provost for possible implementation. Priorities the committee establishes could be addressed in a matter of months, while others could take longer periods of time.

“We fully expect in the course of this academic year that we will work through these issues, have ideas for the provost to look at and have ideas for others to look at,” Welburn said.

“Likewise, I hope that we can work with other entities, like community engagement and development of academic programming.”

Rainer Posselt, a senior in the College of Health Sciences, is one of the students on the committee.

He said one thing the committee is working on is removing the lasting effects of Marquette’s former Warriors mascot.

“We thought (Marquette) could do a trade-in drive,” Posselt said.

“If you come with Warriors (apparel), we could give you a Marquette T-shirt or sweatshirt.”

Climate Study: Student sub-community input valued

The forum sessions held last week gave faculty, students and staff the opportunity to gather and discuss the climate study results.

Approximately seven students were in attendance over the two forums. Welburn said the forum was a chance to get ideas from the Marquette community who read the results and wanted to contribute to the discussion.

“I think that we had a pretty good response from those students who had the greatest concerns about improving the environment based on survey results,” Welburn said.

Maggie Stang, a junior in the College of Arts & Sciences, said she participated in one of the forums last week because she wanted to learn more about the steps that will be taken now that the survey results have been released.

“I think the climate study team is doing a good job of reaching out to all sorts of groups,” Stang said in an email. “That was one of the questions they were asked at the forum, and they talked about the plans they had to speak to all sorts of groups. I was pleased with that.”

Members of the Marquette community had the opportunity to take the climate study survey in February. According to the executive summary of the results, 4,293 surveys were completed for a

response rate of 31 percent. Undergraduate students completed 2,491 surveys. Graduate students, Marquette staff and faculty completed the other 1,802 surveys.

“I am pleased that we had a good response to the survey last February, good by Dr. Rankin’s (climate study consultant) standards,” Welburn said. “Better than many institutions. As I have heard our president say, we have baseline data to improve the climate at

Marquette if we commit ourselves to doing so.”

Elise Jaffee, a sophomore in the College of Communication, did not take the climate study survey.

Jaffee said she has not participated in any forums or discussion because she did not take the survey.

“I honestly don’t really remember why (I didn’t take the climate study), but I must have just not wanted to take the time to do it,” she said.

MUPD Reports Nov. 13 At 6:12 p.m., an intoxicated, underage student was escorted out of the BMO Harris Bradley Center by Milwaukee Police Department and transported back to campus by MUPD. Nov. 15 At 1:38 a.m., two students were in possession of a controlled substance and drug paraphernalia in O’Donnell Field and were taken into custody by MUPD. The students were cited by MUPD and released.

Between 2:30 and 3 a.m. a student reported that unknown person(s) removed his unsecured, unattended property in a business in the 1600 block of W. Wells St. Estimated loss unknown at this time.

Jaffee said she is a member of women’s club basketball and the Jewish Student Union on campus, where she said she has the opportunity to try to improve what happens on campus.

Stang said she took the climate study survey because she wanted to contribute to an accurate portrayal of campus.

“An accurate depiction includes all different voices and perspectives,” she said.

MUPD:

Crime rumors cause worry identified and followed by Milwaukee Police Department and taken into custody the following morning.

Rumors swirled on Facebook and Twitter with the weekend’s events. Some people said there was strangulation or rape involved in one incident. There was speculation about the other incident as people said it was a group of perpetrators dressed like students with backpacks and this has become a trend.

“I think the misinformation was what was getting people upset,” Mascari said. “The fact that people were implying that this was a trend, that some things happened that really didn’t. Those were all contributing factors to people’s anxiety levels rising about something that (they) probably otherwise wouldn’t have been as concerned about.”

An emergency alert text message is only sent to students if there is an immediate threat in the area. Usually, if the perpetrator has not been taken into custody there will be one issued.

Although in Sunday’s incident only one of the two perpetrators was taken into custody, an emergency alert was ruled unnecessary because he ran off campus and was identified.

“Safety alerts are not a breaking news feed,” said MUPD Captain Jeff Kranz. “It’s important that it not be because when that thing goes off, we want people to know they have to look at it because something is going on right now.”

Debbie Aderinkomi, a junior in the College of Communication, said she heard about the weekend’s events from a friend.

“Initially when I heard about the story I was a little freaked out,” Aderinkomi said. “Hearing it through someone else rather than through MUPD was weird just because I feel like most people won’t go double check someone they heard the story from to see if it’s true so it just shows you how powerful word of mouth can be.”

Kranz spoke to many concerned parents and helped dismiss the discrepancies and misconceptions of the crimes.

Both Mascari and Kranz urged parents, students and other members of the community to call MUPD if they have any concerns. They also said the crime log, both online and at the MUPD station, are available to anyone. Within the past six months of MUPD becoming a force, robberies are down almost 40 percent compared to the same time last year.

“I think it was helpful to be able to dispel the thought that there was this organized team following people from different locations and robbing them,” Kranz said. In reality that wasn’t the case and that seemed to be a big point that calmed a lot of nerves.”

The weekend passed by before Belmontes was ready to go outside and face what happened.

“I went out to see the Eiffel Tower shining with the colors of the French flag,” Belmontes said. “While it was a beautiful sight, it was also heart-wrenching to know the reason why the colors were different.”

After wanting to live in Paris since she was eight, Zeck said she won’t let the attacks take away from her accomplishment.

“I’m finally here and I can’t let something like this stop me from fully pursuing my dream,” she said. “It has kind of given me a wake up call in certain aspects of my life and how I plan to deal in the future.”

Cortez said she considered leaving the country but thought otherwise.

“My Parisian classmates cannot do that,” she said. “This is their home, and if they are going through this hard and frightening time, then I should at least help them get through this. That is the least I could do.”

Belmontes woke up the day after the attacks and found comfort in the solidarity shown by the Facebook French flag profile picture filter and major landmarks lit up in the French flag’s colors.

“I am actually incredibly touched that of all places, Milwaukee, my hometown, not only lit up the airport MKE sign ... but also pulled out the MSOE Eiffel Tower it uses during Bastille Days,” Belmontes said. “I’m just so touched by the love and concern everyone is showing.”

As Paris is recuperating, Belmontes feels as if she’s starting over and getting used to the city again.

“I guess one thing that really changed for me is that before, I used to be afraid of being pickpocketing,” she said.

“Now, I’m afraid of another terrorist attack.”

Zeck said she’s staying focused on what she came to Paris to do: live and teach.

“Parisians are resilient and often stubborn so we’re trying to show the world that we are not afraid, even if we are,” she said.

MUSG collaborating to impact 1 billion people Joint effort of 15 colleges plans to affect entrepreneurship

By Sophia Boyd

sophia.boyd@marquette.edu

Two staff members from the Social Innovation Initiative at Marquette announced their goal to impact the lives of one billion people by 2020 at the Marquette Student Government Senate meeting Monday.

Marquette is collaborating with 15 other universities to accomplish this goal. One program that helps Marquette achieve this objective is the Boost Program, which began at Santa Clara University’s Global Social Benefit Institute. It is a free three-day mentorship program for social entrepreneurs in the Milwaukee area.

New class to teach faculty about Jesuit education Ignatian Pedagogical Paradigm will be offered spring 2016

By Gary Leverton

gary.leverton@marquette.edu

A blended course on Jesuit education, Ignatian pedagogy and the Ignatian Pedagogical Paradigm will be offered to faculty in the spring 2016 semester.

Susan Mountin and Maureen McAvoy will teach the class.

Mountin, the director of Manresa for Faculty, will focus on what it means to teach at a Jesuit institution. McAvoy, a College of Professional Studies professor, will focus on the Ignatian Pedagogical Paradigm.

“The purpose of the course is to inform faculty that there is a unique dimension to a MU education and that is Ignatian Pedagogy,” McAvoy said.

“The model (Jesuits) designed is the Ignatian Pedagogical Paradigm, IPP.” McAvoy said the course will be divided into five modules based on five constructs of the IPP: context, experience, reflection, action and evaluation. She said all modules have threaded discussion posts, an individual learning activity and a reflection activity.

“When you purchase a Marquette education, you’re getting a unique experience,” McAvoy said. “The course exposes faculty to the theological, philosophical, spiritual underpinnings of the Jesuit educational mission and the real time mission of a Marquette education, which a faculty member then can use to teach their students.”

The course will start with the history of Ignatius and Jesuit education, and then move deeper into principles of a Jesuit education and contemporary principles of Jesuit education.

It will finish with a focus on

Marquette’s mission and applying IPP to teaching.

Mountin said the course has been around since 2001 but the online components are new additions. She previously led discussions about the course’s topics in small groups of faculty learning community members. Although Mountin said she loved those discussions, the online aspect will keep faculty more focused on the readings and responding to each other.

The course will include five online modules and a week of reflection between each one.

Mountin said that is key to understanding what faculty members learn, and it allows them to absorb the course material.

“Ignatius talks about (how) making good decisions are like water on a sponge compared to water on a rock,” Mountin said.

“This metaphor can be applied to the reflection component of the IPP philosophy.”

Students facing victimization can report situation Program makes confidential space for students to report bias

By Dana Warren

dana.warren@marquette.edu

What began as a project in the Division of Student Affairs and a conversation between a Counseling Center employee and a past director of the Center for Intercultural Engagement has steadily become a tool in aiding students who have felt offended or hurt by biased actions of other students on campus.

“Marquette, along with a lot of colleges and universities around the country, and in particular Jesuit universities, created a bias incident reporting system as a place for students to go when they have either experienced or witnessed an act of bias on campus,” William Welburn, associate provost for diversity and inclusion, said in an email.

While the decision to implement a bias incident reporting system may have been influenced by other colleges, the initial idea and final format came from an introspective approach.

“Bias incidents have historically fallen between the cracks, especially when they don’t rise

This link, on the MUSG webpage, directs students to a form where they can provide information on an act of bias they experience or see.

to the level of being hate crimes or blatant violations of conduct,” Welburn said. “But that doesn’t lessen the sting of aggressive or even micro-aggressive behavior toward a student because of that student’s social identity or group association.”

If a student feels victimized by a biased incident or has witnessed biased actions affecting others negatively, they have the option to fill out a bias incident report which is then sent

directly to the Office of the Provost for review.

“When we get them, our interest is in support, referral or just information-gathering,” Welburn said.

The system is not meant to directly handle all proceedings associated with a possible hate crime or conduct violation, but instead the Bias Incident Review Team has the ability to make appropriate referrals to other departments

based upon the severity of a reported action. The entire system is meant to accommodate the students involved.

“Everything is kept confidential,” Welburn said. “What we hope that we can do as a team is provide students with support and refer them to the right place on campus for an investigation of their report.”

Since the idea was first discussed in summer 2014, Marquette Student Government has

supported the implementation of the system. Students can fill out a bias incident report on the MUSG website.

“The report part is the form that students can go fill out on our page, and it is (used for) any phrases that they hear which they think qualify as bias, including racial slurs or things of that sort,” said Luis Herrera, a sophomore in the College of Business Administration and MUSG senator.

Marquette has addressed some demands from a list that the Ad Hoc Coalition of and for Students of Color issued in April.

The 10 demands brought forward by the coalition include expanding the core curriculum, re-cropping the Marquette University seal, enacting dialogue and reflection, increasing initiatives to recruit and retaining students of diverse background and engaging Marquette Police Department (previously the Department of Public Safety) in community relationship building efforts.

Dora Drake, a senior in the College of Arts & Sciences and a member of the Ad Hoc Coalition, said the demands were meant to create a more inclusive, aware and culturally sensitive campus.

“We have done a lot on diversity and inclusion issues since I have been here,” Provost Daniel Myers said about the list of demands and issues of inclusivity and cultural sensitivity on campus. Myers took office July 1.

Myers emphasized the implementation of dialogue with Marquette’s recent climate study, which was brought on campus to better understand the individual student, faculty member and staff member experience on campus.

One of the more recent climate study discussions ended with the presentation of “action steps” to the facilitators, who would present those steps to administration.

“We are in the process of looking at results and selecting action,” Myers said. “It is really important to have this kind of dialogue. We appreciate having those discussions because it is not just dialogue, it is meaningful dialogue.”

Myers also discussed the new Office of Institutional Diversity and Inclusion, created Oct. 26, the creation of the President’s Task Force on Equity and Inclusion and the recent changes to the Marquette Police Department alert systems.

The alert system changes include adjusting the notification to be designed as a warning to be careful around a specific area. It will not include race or description in the first email or text received.

“I don’t think that we have had an alert since it has been changed,” Myers said. “We don’t want people to feel like they are being targeted or looked at suspiciously because they are too similar to the suspect description.”

Upon hearing the changes, Drake said that the university has addressed one or two of the issues presented in the Ad Hoc Coalition’s list of demands, but generally speaking, the list of demands has not been addressed.

Drake used the example of the demand to re-crop the Marquette seal to depict what happened historically.

“Instead, the result was creating a plaque that explained the history behind the seal,” Drake said. “That demand wasn’t met, it was amended to make it more passive.”

Joseph Martinez, recent graduate of Marquette and cofounder of the coalition, agreed the university has not met the list of demands.

“Dialogue is a good first step, but it is simply a first step,” Martinez said about the recent climate study discussions.

Martinez explained that while dialogue is a good first step, concrete action needs to be taken on campus.

Dentistry school making bone implants Work to help those with facial reconstructive needs

By Jennifer Walter

jennifer.walter@marquette.edu

With funding awarded from the Strategic Innovation Grant, Lobat Tayebi, associate professor and director of research in the School of Dentistry, has been working to create a biodegradable bone implant.

Though others have conducted research in the past to create similar prototypes, Tayebi wants to focus specifically on the design, as opposed to the material, of the implants.

“This proposal is about improving the mechanical property with a specific design,” Tayebi said.

Tayebi said metal implants are the most popular on the market today.

“The problem is with the commercialization (of biodegradable implants),” Tayebi said. “(Patients) cannot trust these kinds of polymers or ceramics which are biodegradable. They still think that these metal implants are more trustworthy.”

Metal implants can cause problems with some patients who have allergic reactions to the material. She said some patients receive a second surgery after the implant is no longer needed.

“The other problems with metal implants is they can be movable,” Tayebi said. “They are not intact with the body.

They do not join with the bone.”

While materials in the implants can be adjusted, Tayebi said the rate of degradation of the implants can be programmed by their specific design.

These implants will be 3Dprinted and will help patients with cleft palates and other facial reconstructive needs.

“We have lots of challenges in the material part to make sure that the materials are in the robust shape that we want,” Tayebi said.

The project focuses on meeting the needs of those with

large bone defects.

“One of the best examples (of a large defect) might be tumors,” lab manager in the School of Dentistry Morteza Rasoulianboroujeni said.

“When you remove a tumor, a cavity is left behind (which) you have to fill.”

“When (a defect) becomes large – for example, more than

five centimeters – it can be hard to handle,” Tayebi said.

This project is faculty-led, with Tayebi leading and working with Rasoulianboroujeni in the lab.

The team has worked on the project since last summer. They plan to have a finished prototype in about a year. They want to eventually patent their

invention, and that could take two to three years or less.

“With good results, it could increase the mechanical property by a hundred times, which is a very huge improvement in biodegradable bone scaffolds,” Tayebi said.

The implants will be made with a 3D printer and will join with bones.

Marquette Police Chief Paul Mascari said body cameras for officers are a real possibility beginning in the 2016-’17 school year.

“There is a lot to evaluate and we are just starting that process, but it is something we hope to have in the near future,” Mascari said.

Mascari said he hopes to have sample cameras by next semester to help get officers used to them and try various brands.

“We’re just trying to be careful with new technology,” MUPD Captain Jeff Kranz said. “All of a sudden there are dealers for body cameras everywhere and we want to make sure we get the best product.”

Kranz said there are various styles and ways to wear the camera. Mascari added there are even different ways to turn the cameras on and off.

The newly formed MUPD Advisory Board, which provides recommendations on MUPD policies and procedures, will help guide the department with decisions in regards to the cameras.

Mascari said it is too soon to publicize a budget until MUPD narrows down what they are looking for in a camera.

News in Brief Calls to pause refugee acceptance Speaker of the House and Wisconsin resident Paul Ryan called for a pause Tuesday in the United States’ Syrian refugee system in light of recent terrorist attacks in Paris.

Ryan said he wants the program halted until there are guarantees no terrorists will infiltrate it.

“This is a moment when it’s better to be safe than to be sorry,” Ryan said at a news conference.

“So we think the prudent, the responsible thing is to take a pause in this particular aspect of this refugee program, in order to verify that terrorists are not trying to infiltrate the refugee population.”

There has been resistance against President Barack Obama’s Syrian refugee program since the terrorist attacks on Paris over the weekend.

Wisconsin Gov. Scott Walker said he would oppose Syrian refugees settling in Wisconsin, joining almost half the country’s governors who shared similar sentiments in wake of this weekend’s events.

“I am calling upon the

County accussed of housing offenders

Milwaukee Alderman Terry Witkowski accused Milwaukee County officials on Nov. 18 of trying to house two sex offenders in a south side residential facility, according to a Milwaukee Journal Sentinel report.

Witkowski said the plans were covered up and would affect 429 W. Uncas Ave., which is in a community-based area.

He went there and held a news conference to inform the neighborhood’s residents.

Bublr Bike stations open year-long

Bublr Bikes will now be available year-round, except when the city of Milwaukee declares snow emergencies, the Milwaukee Business Journal reported.

The bike sharing service shut down last year in December and became available again mid-March.

“We want Bublr to be a viable transportation option for as many days as possible,” said Kevin Hardman, Bublr Bikes executive director. “We will react very quickly to weather conditions and are able to shut down the network when the reads are not suitable for riding a Bublr Bike.”

The organization has 28 Milwaukee stations and would like to increase to more than 100 in the coming years. In addition, Bublr Bikes reported it has 1,400 pass holders.

The bike sharing stations will only close during snow emergencies.

Company picked to build streetcar

The Brookville Equipment Corp. will build the first four Milwaukee streetcars, according to a Milwaukee Journal Sentinel report.

The city signed an $18.6 million contract with the company to build four streetcars, but Brookville could eventually construct as many as 24.

Brookville Equipment Corp. is based in Pennsylvania and manufactures locomotives and mining equipment.

The first streetcar should be delivered to Milwaukee in around 24 months.

Each streetcar will have 32 seats and hold up to 150 passengers. They may offer Wi-Fi in the future.

The goal of the streetcar plan is to connect the Milwaukee Intermodal Station with Milwaukee’s lower east side. The project is expected to break ground this spring, and the streetcars are expected to start running fall 2018. It has a budget of $128 million to build the 2.5 mile route and an estimated $3.2 million operating and maintenance budget.

“We think this is going to have a positive impact on property values and economic development,” Milwaukee Mayor Tom Barrett said.

The Milwaukee County Board approved $400,000 for the program and the Milwaukee Bucks signed on as the first employer.

Other employers have signed on since, including construction and medical companies.

Abele said it’s not good enough to be outraged about the ZIP code’s 30 percent unemployment rate.

“The county is putting up real money, and a lot of it, working with the Milwaukeearea workforce board and Milwaukee Area Technical College to do job training not just to place jobs, but to place careers,” Abele said.

Two students yarn bomb to create color on campus

By Thomas Salinas

thomas.salinas@marquette.edu

Two students are trying to knit happiness for the Marquette community.

Parker Lawson, a freshman in the College of Education, and Olivia Menzia, a freshman in the College of Communication, are “yarn bombing” objects around campus. They describe yarn bombing as “grandma’s graffiti” and said it’s essentially knitting a sweater for random objects.

There are two yarn bombs on campus. The first is on a tree outside of Abbottsford Hall and the second is on a trash can outside Raynor Memorial Library.

Menzia said they did not plan for their yarn bombs to coincide with winter, it just worked out that way.

“All the color is kind of leaving campus,” Menzia said about the leaves falling. “Obviously there are people not from this area who haven’t experienced winter,

so it’s something that will bring color to campus.”

Menzia and Lawson are neighbors in Abbottsford. They met early this semester and began creating different yarn bombs after fall break. Lawson said she learned how to knit at a young age and got the idea when she saw people yarn bombing around the city.

“It’s something to make people smile,” Lawson said. “You don’t have to be a good knitter to yarn bomb, it’s just kind of making little pieces and combining them together.”

Brian Totten, a freshman in the College of Arts & Sciences, said he had never seen yarn bombs before.

He expects the project to grow and, hopefully, gain recognition.

“It’s an original and creative idea,” Totten said. “I don’t think it’s something you find on every college campus.”

Lawson and Menzia said they want to ensure every yarn bomb has a story to go with it. They attached a paper with a creative backstory to each one.

The tree yarn bomb’s story is called “There’s a First for Everything” because it was the pair’s first piece of work. The trash can’s story is called “Trash into Treasure,”

because the bomb was made by assembling scraps of already knitted pieces.

“I like to find prettiness in something you normally wouldn’t consider pretty,” Menzia said.

Lawson added it’s important to share a story so more people can connect and understand their work.

“Instead of just putting yarn on a tree, we like to have some sort of meaning to it,” Lawson said.

Katie Walker, a junior in the College of Health Sciences, said she enjoyed the piece when she first saw it but was confused about why it was there.

“When I first saw it, I thought it was random,” Walker said. “But after I found out the story behind it, I appreciated it even more.”

Menzia and Lawson said they have received positive feedback on their project. They said someone walked up and thanking them for their work while they were putting it up.

“It’s those little things that hit the heart,” Menzia said.

The two plan on putting yarn bombs all around campus.

Their next project involves the Pere Marquette statue.

Students brew homemade beer Seniors learn through trial and error how to make the perfect beer

By Lily Stanicek

lily.stanicek@marquette.edu

Two five-gallon white buckets, emblazoned with the gold Northern Brewer seal, rest haphazardly on the kitchen table in senior Corey Lemay’s house.

Newly-cleaned siphons and a massive silver pot lay on the counter to dry. A cardboard box sits nearby, half opened to reveal packets of hops, a bottle of malt syrup and a bag of priming sugar, its contents peeking out as if anxiously awaiting the moment they’ll be turned into the cool, golden liquid they were always meant to be. On the table, a six-pack of freshly bottled beer sits waiting to become carbonated enough to finally be consumed.

It’s a scene somewhat foreign to college kids today, when a quick walk down the street will get you access to as many types of beer as you can imagine. But for Bridget Perry and Lemay, seniors in the College of Business and the College of Engineering, respectively, it’s the beer-making process that makes all the difference.

“It’s cool that we’re the ones that made it and saw the whole process,” Lemay said. “Because

Seniors Corey Lemay and Bridget Perry share how they became inspired to start brewing homemade beer.

normally you just buy a bottle of beer and drink it and don’t really think much of it. But now it’s a little bit more personal.”

The pair began brewing at the beginning of this school year, when a friend of Lemay turned him on to the idea of home brewing. It was something that appealed to both of them enough to make the leap to buying a home brew kit.

“I’ve always wanted to do it, and Corey did too,” Perry said.

“And we ended up talking about it and we were like, ‘Let’s actually do this.’”

“It was kind of an impulse purchase,” Lemay said. “But we also really wanted to do it.”

In addition to help from Lemay’s friend, LePhoto courtesy of Corey Lemay may and Perry did some initial Blackstone Brewery is the name Corey Lemay and research before Bridget Perry gave their homemade beer.

settling on Northern Brewer as the place to purchase the recipes and equipment from.

“I just looked at different websites that had home brewing stuff,” Lemay said. “A few of my coworkers also do a lot of home brewing, and they also gave me some recommendations. We just looked at prices to see what we got for our money.”

With a location right here in Milwaukee, Northern Brewer is a popular outlet for those who want to start home brewing. Starter kits are reasonably priced and the website houses a comprehensive collection of video tutorials and demonstrations that make the home-brew process seem a little less daunting.

The pair did as much planning as they could, despite their eagerness to jump right in. The list of directions were ambiguous at times, and Perry mentioned that watching Northern Brewer’s videos and taking notes were helpful tools for their first batch.

In fact, Northern Brewer’s videos, tutorials and even in-

person classes, which they hold on various Saturdays throughout the year at their Milwaukee location, are what Rock Bottom’s Head Brewer David Bass recommends for anyone just starting out.

“It’s just like going to any class,” Bass said. “It’s good to have a person teach you how to do it, instead of reading it out of a book and trying to figure it out.”

Lemay and Perry have been taking things slow at first, sticking to prepackaged recipes and staying low-end with their equipment. While Bass says that even if the equipment changes, “the principles are all the same,” he does note that most home brewers eventually start experimenting with flavors and methods as they become more adept.

“Most people go nuts. I’ve heard of people putting chicken into a beer, I’ve heard of people putting onion into a beer,” Bass said. “Here’s the thing, you make five gallons, and if it’s not so good, you can just give it to your friends. That’s the way

Corey Lemay and Bridget Perry will complete their first batch soon. The Blackstone Brewery plans to continue making more cases of beer in the future.

the craft beer movement really started, is people saying, this is all relatively boring and I think I can do better.”

“At the moment I don’t think we’re at the caliber to be able to do that,” Lemay said. “But I think we could try it someday.”

As would be expected on the first go-around, Perry and Lemay hit a few bumps along the way. As simple as brewing kits try to make the directions for first-timers, the detailed and non-linear guide proved to be a bit harder to follow than expected. Timing, more than anything else, was the hardest thing to stick to for the pair.

“There was some stressful times in the middle of it,” Lemay said, “where both of us were like, ‘Oh my God, what’s going on?’”

“We were elbows deep in syrup,” Perry said.

“Things were burning at the bottom of the pot,” Lemay said.

“And I was like, ‘Let’s watch the video one more time,’” Perry said. “And then at certain points in the process it’s supposed to be covered and stay covered for a while. And we missed that part of the directions.”

“We just missed different details,” Lemay said. “And we were trying to keep each other on track. It was a good learning experience.”

Despite the challenges, and before their first batch is even completely finished, Lemay and Perry are already planning their second brew. They have a long ways to go before they are ready to jump into the realm of chicken and onion beer, so for now they’re sticking with prepackaged recipes. Their next batch has the intriguingly unfortunate name of Caribou Slobber, a holiday brew, naturally.

But the two of them are going into this batch a little wiser to the process.

“I think the beer process is kind of obscure to a lot of people,” Perry said. “So seeing it all the way from the beginning to the end, I think it makes a lot more sense now.”

The brewing industry has exploded in recent years, with the amount of craft breweries in Wisconsin alone pushing into the upper nineties, according to the Brewers Association. While Lemay and Perry have already given their fledgling brewery a name – Blackstone Brewery, named after Lemay’s house where all the brewing takes place – the pair is not yet thinking too far into the future. For now, they are excited for their friends to taste their first batch and to begin their second.

As far as the brewing process is concerned, Bass is hesitant to give any concrete advice, saying, simply, “keep trying. Figure it out. There’s some things you have to learn on your own.”

Lemay and Perry aren’t on their own, though, and their partnership has made the process that much easier and enjoyable.

“We’ve kind of been on the same mindset for a lot of this stuff, so it wasn’t too tough to decide on things,” Lemay said.

“It makes it a lot easier to have a partner.”

MUWriMo challenges writers to commit Students involved set personal goals to help finish written works

By Ryan McCarthy

ryan.mccarthy@marquette.edu

To many students, the idea of writing nearly 2,000 words a day seems like torture. For some of the participants in Marquette University Writing Month, or MUWriMo, it is par for the course.

The event, which is organized by the Ott Memorial Writing Center, is Marquette’s own take on the increasingly popular National Novel Writing Month, or NaNoWriMo.

MUWriMo is open to the entire Marquette community as well as nearby members of the Milwaukee community.

Participants are encouraged to set their own personal goals, whether it is to simply outline a paper or something much more ambitious, like a 60,000 word novel. The writing center keeps a google doc where participants can update their daily progress.

Catherine Simmerer, a Marquette English teaching assistant and a graduate student in the College of Arts & Sciences, sees MUWriMo as an opportunity to lay the groundwork for a novel.

She has attempted NaNoWriMo in the past but is confident this year.

“My aim is to accomplish 1667 words a day, to arrive at

sophomore in the College of Arts & Sciences, saw MUWriMo as a chance to develop her ability to think creatively and become inspired.

“The goal of my project was simply to engage my creativity on a daily basis,” WinterbauerLight said. “Even as a member of Live Poets Society, my poetry has always has been the result of sporadic inspiration. I want to become a writer who can habitually conjure an inspired state of mind.”

In order to promote MUWriMo, the writing center organized two writing retreats. The final retreat is being held Dec. 5 from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m. at Raynor Suite A. Participants can preregister on the writing center’s website.

“The writing retreats tend to

more or less 50,000 by November 30,” Simmerer said. “I can usually write 1,000 in an hour if I focus and duct tape my inner editor to a chair in the deepest, darkest recesses of my soul.”

Her focus has waned at times, but Simmerer said she remains committed to reaching her goal of someday finishing a novel.

She finds that every new attempt she makes brings her closer to that goal.

“I have found writing comes and goes in spurts, but the ideas are always there, and they begin to snowball over time,” Simmerer said. “I often find myself lifting themes, characters, and even plot points from old attempts and re-imagining them for a new story.”

Nowacek said that writing can often be a lonely endeavor, and that events like MUWriMo build camaraderie in a community of writers.

“Personally, I hope that writers across campus will connect with each other and feel supported in their writing,” Nowacek said.

“MUWriMo exists to provide encouragement and camaraderie for writers.”

Yoga Six studio to offer ‘giving back’ series Donation-based classes to teach variety of techniques

By Paige Lloyd

paige.lloyd@marquette.edu

Taking the time to enhance the Milwaukee community is something worth striving for. It is a goal that is difficult to achieve, but something that Yoga Six plans to accomplish with their giving back series this November.

With Gratitude and Giving November, Yoga Six, with the help of other local yoga studios, is strengthening the Milwaukee community one yoga class at a time. Every Sunday at 9:30 a.m; the studio invites those new to yoga to join classes with studio owners and yogis from the area.

The series is donation-based so that students may learn a variety of teaching techniques from different yogis each week. The donations will benefit omTown Yogis’ Annual Grant Fund which helps share the practice of yoga to those with little to no exposure in the Milwaukee area.

With a new studio opening in mid-December on North Prospect Avenue, Yoga Six hopes this series will allow local Milwaukeeans to see what the studio has to offer.

Ana Llewellyn, the regional manager of growth markets at Yoga Six, has become a major contributor in this series and hopes the studio’s mission will be well received.

According to Yoga Six’s website, “the ‘Six’ refers to the multidimensional results of a consistent yoga practice: stronger, leaner, clearer, calmer, braver and further.”

“The type of yoga that we offer is driven primarily by science,” Llewellyn said. “When someone comes into one of our studios, we ask what their goals are. We then make class recommendations so we can help them achieve their goals and see results.”

“Yoga can sometimes be intimidating for some people, but we cater to the almost 95 percent of people who have never tried yoga or were scared off after only trying a little bit of it,” Llewellyn said.

Megan Rende, Yoga Six’s local studio manager in Milwaukee shared how she helped make

this series a reality for the city.

Rende, and many other studio owners and managers, share the same ideology: that they are not in competition with each other and instead use expansions such as the one by Yoga Six as a way to strengthen a sense of community in Milwaukee.

Pairing up with so many different studios assists Yoga Six in achieving its goal throughout the course of its November series.

“The classes every Sunday are rooted in gratitude and giving,” Rende said. “Students are able to give time to come together on a mat, to come together with various studios.”

One of the many studios that is working with Yoga Six during this November series is Urban Om, owned by Jozi Tatham and Kelsey Weaver.

As a relatively new studio – its opening was in January – Urban Om describes its space as a studio that can “create community and build a safe place to call home; a place where you can explore yourself, find your edge and break down boundaries without judgment or fear,” according to their website.

The studio encompasses the

idea of “om”as it represents the connectedness of the community.

One way the co-owners look to accomplish that is through the November giving back series. The studio on North Farwell Avenue will host one of the Sunday classes this weekend.

“I love to foster the growth in our community,” co-owner Kelsey Weaver said. “This can be done by supporting each other, learning to laugh with each other and just helping each other.”

Being a part of the Sunday series helps Weaver see how much she can benefit the community.

“It’s cool to have been able to witness the growth,” Weaver said.

“We are still witnessing our students gravitating toward that sense of community and involvement.

We also love that Milwaukee is like a big, small town. People come from all walks of life and being able to come into the same area and to get along without any preconceived notion of one-upping each other.

“Being able to teach together with multiple different studios is a great way of enhancing the community,” Weaver said. “It’s not just about an individual studio but enhancing the yoga

Gratitude and Giving November offers classes regardless of experience.

'

community of the city.”

The event this Sunday, Nov. 22, will take place at Urban Om’s studio as Weaver and Tatham coteach the class that morning.

“There will be community building by connecting with others, possibly by grabbing hands

with the person next to you to help with balance,” Weaver said. “It will be fun, carefree and appropriate for all levels of experience.

Even if people have never done yoga, before they will be able to find a sense of comfort and home during the class.”

Hip-hop group shares its passion for dance Hype performers prepare for fall dancing showcase

By Aly Prouty

alyssa.prouty@marquette.edu

Hype Dance Company, one of the only Urban Dance Art companies in the Milwaukee area, has performed throughout the Midwest and is excited to get audiences hyped for their upcoming performance.

Hype’s fall showcase RAW will be held Nov. 20 at 7:30 p.m. in the Weasler auditorium. Admission is free, and they are expecting a full house.

Hype is one of Marquette’s three on-campus dance groups.

Hype specializes in hip-hop, setting it apart from the other groups.

“I feel like hip-hop is completely different than most styles of dance,” said Nicole Germino, a junior in the College of Health Sciences. “Someone can be hitting the moves, like popping and that kind of stuff, and other people are smooth. And the other thing I think is kind of cool is that there are so many set styles within one style of dance.”

Hype was founded in 2001.

A second chapter of Hype at University of Wisconsin-Milwaukee was founded in 2004.

Members of Hype, a hip hop group, practice four and a half hours a week in preparation for their showcase.

Marquette’s chapter will perform at Hype UWM’s showcase in early December.

Hype UWM will perform at the upcoming showcase, as well as other dance companies from the area including Revamped, ImPopular, PoisoneD and Locomotion.

Victoria Anjeh, a junior in the College of Communication, is one of Hype’s chapter directors. Anjeh has been dancing since she was three and joined Hype her freshman year. As the chapter director Anjeh plans the showcases each semester, communicates with Hype UWM,

runs practices and works with outside choreographers.

In addition to Hype, Anjeh has been involved in cheerleading and competitive dance. Dancing has become a crucial part of her life.

“All dance is a form of expression,” Anjeh said in an email. “I love being able to express myself through movement and through music. Through that expression, there is the ability to create art through movement.”

Other members of Hype found dancing later in life. Jeremy Rodriguez, a junior in the College of Business Administration, did

not start dancing until he got to college. This is his first semester dancing with Hype.

“My favorite thing about Hype is the atmosphere,” Rodriguez said. “It’s the idea of family. Everyone has your back. It’s like a cool thing - we understand we’re students but we also understand we have to kill it on Friday too for our show.”

Dancers practice two days a week, for a total of four and a half hours a week. At each practice, the group will learn a new piece that is choreographed by an outside choreographer or by members of the group.

There are four sets, or groups of similar dances, that Hype will perform on Friday night. All together, Hype will perform 13 pieces. Germino is excited to perform with Hype as a second semester dancer.

Aside from thinking about perfecting each dance move, Germino loves the feeling she gets when she dances on stage.

“I am just always thinking about how cool it is. You get people yelling your name, and you got people yelling your teams name,” Germino said.

In addition to a showcase each semester, Hype performs around campus at different events like Dance Inc.’s showcase, talent shows and the BSO fashion show. No matter where they are performing, Rodriguez enjoys taking in the reactions from the audiences. “(The audience) is so loud and people are yelling. They like get up out of their seats,” Rodriguez said. “They pump you up and your facials are going to become so natural. It should be really fun.”

Hype members are excited to get the crowd going.

“We want you to come and have a great time because we are having the time of our lives performing for everyone. Our shows are free for a reason. You cannot put a price on fun,” Anjeh said in an email.

Choral director introduces new software Overtone Analyzer measures singers sound and pitch

By Thomas Southall

It’s magical just to pop in headphones and listen to a very good singer like Adele. How does she do it? Better yet, can anyone make their voice sound like molten gold perfection? It’s just a matter of vibrating your vocal chords,

right? Much like any form of art, it’s not that simple. There is a group of students on campus who train constantly to improve their sound and to showcase their talent and one professor has found something that will help them go above and beyond with their singing skills.

Mark Konewko, the director of Marquette Choral Program, came across a software program at the American Choral Director Association Convention last spring. A master class provided at this convention taught students the techniques of singing while using a

certain audio software to develop the singer’s formant.

A formant, which is about 2,000 to 3,000 hertz, is a more subtle aspect to vocal production that relates to the frequency component and how the sound of a voice is distributed over several frequencies.

“Most people don’t think you can hear, but it really develops the quality of the sound of the singer,” Konewko said.

The software is called Overtone Analyzer, a computer program developed by a Berlinbased company called Sygyt. The

software was designed to visualize, measure and record vocals. “(Formant is) another way of addressing tone quality in choir.

The software shows a visual representation of the (formant),” Konewko said.

Brynn Lee, the president of the Marquette Chorus and a junior in the College of Communication, recounts the time when she and her choral mates first encountered the software and its purpose.

“Dr. Konewko sang into it himself and while he played back the recording, he explained the phenomenon of overtones and

fundamentals,” Lee said. “Then he recorded us singing a song and showed us where are problem areas were, when our vowel sounds are not pure, the fundamental is not as strong. He then had each vocal section sing one at a time to see where our weaknesses and strengths were.”

According to Konewko, students have been responding well to the software program. Overtone Analyzer really opened the eyes of the chorus members.

“Something that I learned from this software is that whichever pitch we hear is not just one pitch,” said Sawson Shimi, external communications Chair for the choral group and a sophomore in the College of Nursing. “It’s actually a combination of different harmonics to produce one sound that the human ear can hear. I found this absolutely amazing!”

The interface Overtone Analyzer uses is very colorful. To the right of the screen is an upright piano. When a sound is recorded, different colors appear lining up with the notes on the piano. Zooming in to each note can show how flat and how sharp the note was produced. But the software can display other data as well.

Both students and teacher are really appreciating the application and the impact it will have on their singing quality and they are looking forward of its use in the future.

“It’s like inspecting each and every brick before building a house to make sure it will work,” Shimi said. “It’s a software that will break down into every detail of our voices and pitches as a group in order to make sure the overall sound is the best it can be.”

BSO fashion show hopes to raise over $6,000 Bayanihan Student Organization selects Best Buddies of Wis.

By Rachel Kubik

rachel.kubik@marquette.edu

The Bayanihan Student Organization will bring the audience to the wild acts of the circus during its 19th annual fashion show this Saturday, Nov. 21. Themed “Cirque du Bayanihan,” the group is collaborating with the Indian Student Organization, the African Students Association, Japanese Club, the Gold ‘n Blues and Hype Dance Company to put on a show that will amaze the audience for Marquette’s largest nonprofit fundraising event of the year. Their goal is to raise over $6,000 this year.

The show will be held at 7 p.m. in the Alumni Memorial Union Grand Ballrooms. Besides the event being a fashion show with modeling, there will also be dancing and singing as well as a silent auction. All of the proceeds from the fashion show this year will go to the nonprofit organization, Best Buddies of Wisconsin.

“The reason why we chose Best Buddies in the first place was because Best Buddies is an organization that takes people with intellectual disabilities and includes them in society,” said Kiko Ramos, fashion show coordinator and sophomore in the College of Engineering. I feel like that’s what Bayanihan does with this fashion show, with all these different diversity clubs coming together.”

Best Buddies creates oneto-one friendships by pairing people with intellectual and developmental disabilities with others who can help them advance their leadership and social skills. In 2011, Best Buddies created the 2020 initiative.

The goal is to open offices in all 50 states, expanding into 100 different countries and impacting 3 million with and without disabilities by the end of 2020.

There are six main companies donating clothing to the fashion show, including PINK, Aeropostale, New Balance and ReThreads. The Marquette Spirit Shop will also be featured.

“We draw attention to big companies but we also want to show off local stores,” said A.J. Giron, fashion show coordinator and sophomore in the College of Arts & Sciences.

Although the club mainly focuses on promoting, educating and celebrating Filipino culture, they are promoting other cultures as well through the African, Indian, Japanese, Indonesian and Malaysian outfits that will be shown.

Ramos said that he is most excited to see the show all put together, especially because they’ve been working on it since the summer.The BSO had a table at O-Fest in the beginning of the academic school year for signing up for the club as well as the fashion show.

“Personally, I really like the sportswear and the casual wear because we have a lot of great stores from that,” said Samantha Dayon, fashion show coordinator and sophomore in the College of Business Administration. “PINK and New Balance… those are the types of clothes that a lot of Marquette students wear.”

Like Ramos, Giron is also looking forward to the whole show coming together.

“The culture segment is our closing and (the students involved) worked so hard. I love all (the students); they do so well.” Giron said. “I love watching them walk the runway. It’s about the whole,

not the individual pieces.”

Dayon said that they will open the show with an all-women segment.

“We (are using) the Britney Spears ‘Circus’ music to kind of play off of that theatrical portion of the show,” Dayon said.

Sydney Valero, the BSO Vice President and senior in the College of Arts and Sciences, said that the group is bringing out

Marquette’s slogan, “Be the Difference,” and that they try to work that slogan in every day with their club. Giron echoed this goal.

“We use this as our largest recruiting tool. We want the club to get bigger, we want interest to come in. We want to put on a great show and put smiles on people’s faces,” Giron said.

Marquette to host its first 24 Hour Film Race

Students have one day to write, shoot, edit short film

By Casey Beronilla

casey.beronilla@marquette.edu

Over the course of one day, 604,800,000 Coca-Cola products are consumed, 149,748,480 snapchats are sent and the Earth makes a full rotation on its axis.

A lot can happen in 24 hours.

Marquette Film Club is challenging students to maximize the 24 hours that fall between 6 p.m. on Friday, Nov. 20 and 6 p.m. on Saturday, Nov. 21. During that length of time, teams of students will produce short films as part of a film race hosted by the Marquette Film Club.

This student organization is the product of a fusion between Fade In: Film Society and Production Club, an organization started by Joe Brown, a professor in the College of Communication. Film Club holds movie screenings, lectures on

cinema and workshops on cameras, audio and editing throughout the year. The 24 Hour Film Race is the club’s major event this semester.

“This is the first time we’ve done such a thing at Marquette that I know of,” Brown said.

Marquette’s film race was ultimately Brown’s idea. At the start of the race, the judges will reveal three elements that each film must include. These elements will be a movie genre, a prop and a line of dialogue, perhaps from a famous movie.

Other than those requirements, participants have the freedom to be as creative as possible with their films.

“It’s kind of fun because everybody’s going to approach the parameters in a different way,” Brown said.

Although such 24-hour film races are regular events in the film world, Brown says that these competitions are typically sponsored by film societies, unlike Marquette’s, which is just for fun. Brown’s goal for the film race is to encourage creativity and

collaboration between students across Marquette’s different colleges. However, at least one student on each team must be in the College of Communication, since production equipment and facilities are provided and communication students will likely be more familiar with how to use them. George Bicknell and Brian Mohsenian, seniors in the College of Communication and Arts of Sciences, respectfully, are the hosts of the film race and will be on call throughout the competition in case of technical difficulty.

“We’re hoping to get teams of students involved to write, cast, film and edit a three to five minute film within 24 hours,” Bicknell said. “(It’s a) fun thing to do and as a challenge, but also as a motivator as well, just for people to work together that don’t normally work together to collaborate and make something cool.”

Mohsenian and Bicknell are co-heads of creative affairs for the Marquette Film Club and have been working with Brown to plan this event. Their tentative schedule for students partaking in the competition is as follows: 6 p.m. – 10 p.m: Write script 10 p.m. – 3 a.m.: Shoot video 3 a.m. – 8 a.m.: Sleep 8 a.m. – 6 p.m.: Edit At approximately 6:30 p.m.

Saturday, there will be a screening of all the films in Johnston Hall room 103 and anyone is welcome to attend.

Brown, Bicknell, Mohsenian and a panel of other professors will judge the films based on strength of technical aspects, including look and sound, storytelling ability and how well the genre, prop and dialogue are incorporated. Brown says that the judges will also take into

consideration audience reaction to the films. Bicknell and Mohsenian added that originality is an important factor in judging as well. There will be a prize package for the team that wins first place.

The organizers of the film race acknowledge how challenging it will be for the teams to capture the vision they wish to convey while still remaining within the constraints of the competition.

“How well they use their time is definitely a big part,” Mohsenian said. “It’s really hard to actually make something in a specific amount of time, especially when you have an idea.”

“This is just kind of a creative,

fun event to get people excited about film,” Brown said.

Bicknell and Mohsenian say that the success of the 24 Hour Film Race will be dictated by audience reception, much like a movie itself. They agree that the best thing that could come out of it would be that, by popular demand, Marquette hosts another film race in the future.

“If people love it so much that they ask for another one, that would be the best,” Bicknell said. “If in the end they’re like, ‘We have to do this again,’ that would be ideal for me.”

The 24 Hour Film Race will be accepting signups until the day of the competition.

Advocating on social media, events must be upheld as events, not trends Social media brings out the temporary activist in everyone.

In this day and age, it is possible to be informed about international events within 30 minutes of when they occur. In a matter of hours, local events can become national – even international – affairs. But near-immediate access to information on current events illuminates something else: a need to participate in the event, even when several degrees removed. Students of Marquette, if you are going to advocate and opine on current events, uphold them as events rather than social media trends.

Following the Paris attacks on Nov. 13, @Jackjonestv tweeted “No media has covered this, but R.I.P to all the people that lost their lives in Lebanon yesterday from Isis attacks,” with an outdated photo of a bombing that occurred in Lebanon in 2006. This tweet is one of many that had thousands of retweets by people who were outraged that the media had not been covering the bombings. The media did, in fact, cover these acts of terrorism, it just wasn’t trending at the same caliber as the attacks in Paris.

It is easy to skim through Facebook and assorted newssite headlines, but be sure to do your research. If you post or share an article you have not read, you may be astonished to find the event occurred months, or even years ago.

Just like your academics, check your sources. If you are using Twitter, are the accounts you are following credible? For every credible account, fact or article, there are many that are not.

Upon initially hearing an argument or opinion, you may agree, but you should dig deeper and explore below the surface-level. Change is one of the only constants in life, and your opinions are not exempt from this. You may end up disagreeing with your initial post, and while you can delete it, those who cared enough to read what you shared will inevitably remember the contradiction.

Just as opinions change, so do the current events that people talk about. People are willing to share their thoughts for a few days, but if they don’t get enough likes or retweets, they move on and wait for the next big thing. Because of this, activism on social media is ephemeral at best.

If you are going to write something, make sure you know why you are writing it. If you are sharing your viewpoint because your friends are doing so and you feel obligated, that may not be the best decision.

Photo via https://twitter.com/jackjonestv/status/665521689967599616

A photo from 2006 was reposted as though it were taken one day prior in Lebanon.

Maybe the current event was about college students protesting and you feel it is your duty to share whatever stance you take as an act of solidarity. Just because you don’t share an article or 140 characters of your sentiment, that doesn’t mean you are not knowledgable of the situation, nor does it mean you are a bad person.

If you are sharing your thoughts for validation and praise from the rest of the world for participating in a controversial issue, you may want to reconsider, especially when several degrees removed from said issue. Some people want to share their opinion because they want to be the first to say something, but you never know who this may affect. Immediately after the Paris attacks, analysts deduced how the attacks would be good for Republicans or how they would be good for Democrats, yet the number of lives lost had yet to be known, and people had just started mourning.

There is something to be said about leaving space for those immediately affected to grieve or be angry. Everyone

deserves the space and time to process pain, and the rest of the world needs to learn to process events while removed from the immediate situation – this doesn’t come easily to anyone.

It’s hard to imagine creating time – even space – for solitude in today’s world.

The way you react and advocate on social media is accessible to almost anyone in the world. If you feel obligated to share your sentiments, keep in mind that these are real events, not just trends, that have affected real people. If you do share, be smart about it and make sure you have your facts straight. Dig deep into issues and read the opinions of others on both sides of the argument. Social media activism comes and goes. With each current event, those directly affected aren’t going to remember the opinions that were shared, but they will remember how they felt and how difficult the experience was. So please, respect those who are processing and grieving before giving your own two cents, or don’t share anything at all.

‘Safe spaces’ mask underlying problems Caroline Comstock Columnist

The right to assemble peacefully has enabled victories in legislation throughout history.

Whether they related to suffrage or segregation, peaceful movements sent a message loud and clear: “We want this, and we won’t stop until we get it.”

Generally speaking, successful demonstrations offer a specific resolution. Demonstrations for suffrage called for voting rights. Demonstrations against segregation called for the repeal of Jim Crow laws.

However, these are not the kind of demonstrations making headlines today. In response to an incident involving cotton balls on the lawn of the black cultural center and various incidents involving racial slurs used on campus, the University of Missouri group calling themselves “Concerned Student 1950” initiated a campus-wide movement that ultimately resulted in the resignation of President Tim Wolfe.

Armed with a list of outlandish demands and a leader participating in a hunger strike, Concerned Student 1950 had an overarching goal in mind: making their campus a “safe space.”

The movement sparked action on college campuses across the country to address racism. One of the suggestions stemming from the silent protest at Marquette included instituting diversity training and a class focusing on white privilege and cultural sensitivity. I can’t imagine that a class titled “White Privilege” would be very objective in nature, but it will be interesting to see if that transpires.

The state of conflict on Missouri’s campus turned from bad to ugly very quickly. Members of Concerned Student 1950 actively blocked media from entering their “safe space” and reporting.

The seemingly vague calls to action published by the group had some of the most liberal readers scratching their heads in confusion. What is a “safe space,” and whose responsibility is it to ensure such a “safe space?”

Does this make every other place “unsafe?” How is this situation improved?

The phrase “safe space” has been thrown around quite a bit lately, usually in regards to those belonging to the LGBT community or those who have been victims of sexual violence. For instance, Brown University created a literal “safe space,” complete with Play-Doh, soothing music, pillows, coloring books, bubbles, cookies, counselors and a video of puppies. This “safe space” served as escape from triggering or offensive material presented in a debate challenging the idea of rape culture last spring at Brown.

Although such details might sound like part of an SNL skit, they are not. The room was dedicated for those victims who consciously chose to go to a debate in which the subject material was

made clear. It seems a bit counterintuitive, but I suppose the type of cookie offered has to factor into the decision.

Other universities take a less literal approach to the phrase and strive to create classroom environments that function as “safe spaces.” Genuinely confused as to the meaning, I read multiple definitions of what constitutes a safe space. All sources define a conceptual safe space as an environment in which people are free to express their unique identity, orientation, religion or culture and associated opinions without fear of rebuke. In other words, for a space to truly be safe, students won’t feel the need to filter what they’re saying based on who is in the room.

In theory, people will be supportive and encouraging. No one will be silenced.

But this is not what safe space classrooms are like in practice.

In “safe” classrooms, only particular ideas earn the privilege to be openly discussed.

We are approaching the oneyear anniversary of the Westboro Baptist Church’s arrival in response to a philosophy student’s request to discuss opposition to gay marriage. As we know, the student was turned down and told that such opinions will not be tolerated in classroom discussion. Although I respectfully disagree with the student’s sentiments, the decision makes one thing abundantly clear about safe spaces: they are only safe for some students.

Without defining any sort of boundary for a so-called safe space, we see the concept start to slowly, but surely make its way into social media, retail and work environments. For those finding themselves excluded from the Starbucks Christmas cup design, you can now enjoy your Gingerbread Latte without feeling unsafe.

This semester, Marquette Student Government formed a committee for their “Take Back the Yak” initiative to protect vulnerable Marquette students from getting boo-boos from mean yaks. More formally, yaks that aren’t in line with Marquette’s mission will be down-voted by the committee until they are removed (even though the Yak network is based on geographic location).

We have created spaces that are more exclusive than inclusive. We expect universities to be responsible for the morality of individuals. We distort reality and censor meaningful, albeit controversial, conversation.

Dissent allows us to acknowledge conflict before it escalates.

Dissent serves to educate. Silencing any opinion is dangerous, and silence has no business in a college environment.

Silence is not safe.

Both implicit and explicit racism are very much alive throughout today’s college campuses, but campus-wide safe spaces serve to mask the underlying problems.

All sidewalk patrons have found Why I continue to common foe: people hovering choose Marquette Michael Cummings Columnist

It’s a bird. It’s a plane. No, it’s a 7-foot-tall basketball player on a hoverboard.

Hoverboards have become increasingly popular nationwide, and Marquette’s campus is no exception. Now, along with fiery squirrels and Greeklife baked goods, students are met with levitating persons on their early morning walks. The boards are future-like, but students have not taken well to their presence on campus.

Those walking have always had plenty to raise their eyebrows at when sleepily dragging themselves to class. Paces vary with slow strollers, speed demons and early morning joggers, who all seem to take up sidewalk space in their own unique ways. There are zoned-out freshman who wander cluelessly onto your path and hipsters bicycling way too fast. Today however, students have found common ground on which to share frustration: hovering individuals.

Many Marquette students are bitter at the sight of this new technology. As the semester draws to a close, students are stressed about finals and have spent every last penny in their checking accounts. A $300 hoverboard doesn’t exactly fit into the Ramen budget, and seeing students use technology that you can’t afford for yourself adds frustration to an already tense time of year.

For some upperclassman, the cold walk from apartments and houses is hard enough without peers floating above you on the way to class. Feelings of inferiority only make an 8 a.m. walk

that much worse.

Furthermore, the fact that Division I athletes seem to be among the few students with hoverboards warrants frustration as well. We’ve all heard about Tempur-Pedic mattresses and full size refrigerators in McCabe Hall, but now athletes have the ability to hover too?

That’s just not fair. A futuristic society has emerged and the more evolved humans have found an alternative mode of transportation while the rest of us still tread like Neanderthals.

Hoverboards, or “Segways without handlebars”, are selfbalancing scooters in which leaning backwards will send you in reverse, and leaning forward will scoot you head-on. Years of cold Milwaukee winters have done a number on campus sidewalks, making hoverboards impractical at times. Maneuvering cracked and warped paths to academic buildings is not easy while balancing on two wheels.

Why try to balance four inches above the ground – arms out in front of you like Frankenstein for stability – when you can just walk like everyone else?

The boards are similar to the Mattel Hoverboard from “Back to the Future II,” but students are not nearly as smooth as Marty McFly. Students have been witnessed losing their balance, falling, hitting their heads on the top of doorways while scooting into buildings, accidentally increasing speed and crashing into walking students.

On one occasion, I watched as a student attempted to come off the curb and onto the street without leaving his board.

I’m not entirely sure how he thought it would end, but he provided nearby walkers with a good laugh.

Hoverboards can be dangerous. They have been completely banned from sidewalks in Britain and college students

nationwide have complained about them since August. As for Marquette, MUPD said earlier this year that the boards are legal as long as students using them abide by pedestrian laws.

In my search to discover what the fuss was all about, I politely asked a student in Wehr Chemistry if I could give his board a try. As I stepped onto the board, I almost immediately fell. The boards are awkward and even on a flat surface I had trouble maintaining balance. Imagine the campus’ reaction to a Division I basketball player missing the entire season because he lost balance on his hoverboard.

I don’t picture pleased Golden Eagle fans and coaches.

And if the boards still seem practical, one can simply wait a few more weeks until December greets us with the gift of snow. If gliding over piles of leaves wasn’t hard enough, a few inches of slushy Wisconsin snow will certainly present some problems for hoverboard users. Maybe if students are really afraid of walking, we will see hoverboards equipped with snow tires and bootstraps.

Oh the humanity.

The truth is, we are not quite used to the idea of a hoverboard. New technology always warrants skepticism and jealousy from those without the luxury. It’s difficult to fully appreciate something when access is limited.

Some day, hoverboards will be universal and all students will float to class together in unison. Until that day, walkers on campus must continue to deal with burning envy and sore ankles. At the very least, we can enjoy a few laughs while we suffer.

Morgan Hughes

Columnist “Where are you from? What is your major? Why did you choose Marquette?” These are the typical ice-breaker questions used when getting to know someone for the first time. They’re easy to answer and they fill what would otherwise be awkward silence.

I tell people that I chose Marquette because it’s in the city and that I love Milwaukee. I chose Marquette because it has an awesome journalism program. I chose Marquette because I was familiar with the campus because my mom had lived in the city for the majority of my childhood.

But there’s more to Marquette than what can be discussed over orientation chatter. And a lot has changed since I first filled out the application to Marquette. My reasons for wanting to attend are different than my reasons for staying.

The first thing I think about when I consider what makes Marquette different from other universities is the faculty. I’m not going to lie, the idea of transferring schools has popped into my head. Rarely, but it has. Yet every time, that idea is quickly replaced with the knowledge that transferring schools would mean forfeiting the opportunity to learn under such amazing professors. I’m sure other universities have great teachers, but they don’t have a Karen Hoffman or a Herbert Lowe.

Another major thing to love about Marquette is the location.

Milwaukee is a very special place.

The city gets a bad rap, and while there are some serious problems, every city has its faults. We get snow and a beach, hundreds of independent coffee shops, a talented arts community, more thrift shops than Macklemore would know what to do with, amazing food and a fantastically diverse population.

Marquette sits right in the middle of all of that wonderful-

ness. So many of my Saturdays have been spent hopping on buses and getting off as soon as I see something interesting I want to explore. I have a list of used bookstores a mile wide thanks to those trips.

Milwaukee has a place for everyone. It’s impossible to feel like you don’t belong.

Speaking of feeling like you belong, Marquette has so many student organizations. Whether you love poetry or you identify as a movie-buff, Marquette has a club where you can discuss and practice your passions with like-minded peers.

Marquette also offers free tutoring, free counseling, a writing help center, financial aid advisors, a career services center and so many other programs designed to help students and faculty with whatever they may be facing. I honestly feel like the university cares about the individual student. Marquette wants to build successful people and it offers all the things necessary to do that.

As if all that Marquette provides isn’t enough, the students make it even better. Last week, students joined together outside the library on Wisconsin avenue to show solidarity with the students at the University of Missouri. This is just one example of the community Marquette fosters. We are all such different people with different ideals and ambitions. But being at Marquette, it is easy to join together despite all of our differences and stand together. We can all agree on one thing: we have to be the difference.

So, I might fantasize about being in California with my toes in the sand when I’m freezing cold walking to an 8 a.m. class here in Wisconsin, but no grievance that I have with the university could push me away.

I love Marquette, and I will continue to choose it.

We are Marquette.

Oh Gosh! Ace joins club VB Former MU star joins new team for post-DI career

THURSDAY 11/19 Hockey at Nebraska When: 4:30 p.m.

By Andrew Goldstein

andrew.goldstein@marquette.edu

For four years, Lindsey Gosh struck fear into opposing defenses any time she stepped behind the service line. The lefty from Oconomowoc had perfected the power serve, twice ranking in the top-25 nationwide in aces per set.

But, as is the case for all NCAA athletes, four years of eligibility crept up and ended Gosh’s prestigious volleyball career at Marquette... or so she thought.

Almost a year after she unlaced her sneakers for the final time as a member of Marquette’s Division I team, Gosh is lacing them up yet again–this time as a member of the Marquette club volleyball team.

“I knew that one of my former teammates (Carol Henney) did club once she was done with college volleyball,” Gosh said.

“I was like ‘oh, I miss playing, so I’ll try it.’”

Gosh played for Marquette’s Division I team from 2011 to 2014 and was a starter for her final three years. She was all-BIG EAST as a junior and senior, and she averaged an impressive 2.48 kills in her career.

The suddenness of Gosh’s decision to join the club team surprised senior Maria de Valk, the president of Marquette’s club volleyball program and a current player on the team. She says that Gosh wasn’t on the team’s radar at all.

“We didn’t actively seek her out because I was told she wasn’t staying on campus,” de Valk said.

“Then she texted me this summer and asked if she could try out.”

De Valk’s response?

“I just laughed and said, ‘well yeah, you can try out, but you’re obviously going to make the team,’” she said. “That was super exciting.”

Gosh joins a Marquette club team that consistently ranks as one of the best in the country. The “A” team won back-to-back national championships in 2013 and 2014 and finished fifth in the country last year despite not having any DI-caliber athletes on the roster.

“Usually when a team has a DI player that comes and plays with them, they’re a top team in the nation,” de Valk observed.

One thing that Gosh has now removed from her game is her trademark serve. Back in her DI days, the right side hitter chucked the ball high in the air, galloped a few steps forward, sprung off the ground and lashed it over the net with her left hand at speeds exceeding 50 miles per hour.

These days, the power that propelled her to 120 aces over the course of her DI career is a distant memory, replaced instead by a standard, flat-footed float serve.

“I suffered a couple of injuries, so the constant jumping definitely isn’t good for me right now,” she said.

“A couple of injuries” might be

Lindsey Gosh averaged an impressive .44 aces per set over her sophomore and junior seasons at Marquette.

an understatement: Gosh suffers from chronic patellar tendonitis and every ligament in her right ankle is currently torn. However, if the injuries affected anything other than her serve, she certainly isn’t showing it.

“Dec 22 is when I get surgery!”

Gosh exclaimed, right before adding that she didn’t regret any of the volleyball career that led to her injuries.

While Gosh says she is virtually unaffected by the torn tendons, she believes her skills aren’t superior compared to other top players at the club level. Some of her teammates adamantly disagree.

“You can definitely tell the difference when she’s on the court,” de Valk said. “When she hits, people back up waiting for her hit to come. The other club players are athletic, but with her, it’s very different.”

Junior libero Clare Niswonger even went as far as to say that Gosh inspired fear in her opponents.

“Everybody on the other side of the net is terrified of her,” Niswonger said. “Even if they could pass her hit, they just automatically peel out.”

As a defensive player, Niswonger feels sorry for Marquette’s opponents, and she expressed the trepidation they likely experience on the other side of the net.

“When she goes up to hit at practice, I’m like ‘I’m out; don’t ruin my face,’” Niswonger explained. “I haven’t taken a ball off the face from her yet, but I’m waiting for it.”

There’s a certain irony that the person striking fear in the hearts of Marquette’s opponents is Gosh, who might be among the most affable, non-threatening people one could ever meet off the court.

“She’s such a sweetheart,”

Niswonger said. “She’s always smiling; always has nothing bad to say about anyone.”

The smiling attacker was in full effect during Marquette’s Fall Classic tournament on Saturday, helping to lead Marquette’s A team to an undefeated record and the tournament victory. With Gosh at the helm of the offense, Marquette looked like a legitimate title contender in the early season.

“Her hits and her blocks are not common at this level,” club head coach Molly Keup said. “That gives us an advantage.”

As wonderful as this final season may turn out to be for Marquette club volleyball, it can’t last forever.

Gosh will graduate with a nursing degree in May, and with that comes the beginning of a difficult choice. She can either follow her

career path and become a nurse, or move out west to pursue a professional beach volleyball career.

Gosh says that ideally, she would like to do both.

“Depending on where you work (as a nurse), they have different shifts. Froedtert (Hospital) has a shift where you work seven days a week for 10-hour days, and then you have a whole week off. The week off is when I’d do a lot of my training.”

That’s Lindsey Gosh for you.

The end of NCAA eligibility, the possibility of 70-hour workweeks and entirely torn tendons are three compelling reasons to retire, but she refuses to let any of them stop her from doing what she’s always done–namely, smacking volleyballs to the opposing floor harder than anybody else on the court.

Another early test for MUBB Experienced Iowa comes to MKE for Gavitt Tip-Off

By Dan Reiner

daniel.reiner@marquette.edu

The next week of play will be telling for the Marquette men’s basketball team. The Golden Eagles begin undoubtedly their toughest stretch of the non-conference slate, and by Tuesday fans will have a more definitive outlook for the team – for better or for worse.

Marquette hosts Iowa tonight as part of the inaugural Gavitt Tip-Off Games, a head-to-head competition between teams from the BIG EAST and Big Ten. The Golden Eagles come off a shaky overtime victory against IUPUI Monday in which they turned the ball over 20 times and shot just 21 percent from three-point range.

MUBB Staff Picks MU vs. Iowa MU vs. LSU

“We have to get better allaround,” head coach Steve Wojciechowski said after Monday night’s win. “The thing I think we can clean up in a hurry is our turnovers. We should be a team that has a good assist-to-turnover ratio.”

As was expected before the season, Marquette’s big men Luke Fischer and Henry Ellenson lead the offensive charge for Marquette in the early going. Fischer is averaging 14.5 points and 10 rebounds through two games, while Ellenson is averaging 19.5 points and 9.5 boards. However, the Hawkeyes present one of the toughest matchups for the pair of 6-foot-11 Golden Eagles.

Iowa starts four seniors, including 6-foot-9 forward Jarrod Uthoff, a Preseason All-Big Ten selection. The former Wisconsin transfer is averaging 17 points and 6.5 rebounds through the Hawkeyes’ two easy home wins against Gardner-Webb and

Coppin State. Paired with 7-foot-1 senior Adam Woodbury and 6-foot9 sophomore Dom Uhl, Iowa has a tall and talented front line for Marquette to handle.

Marquette’s biggest problem, meanwhile, has been its defense, which has allowed 77 points per game against Belmont and IUPUI. The young team has struggled with defensive rotations in the man-to-man defense, often leaving players uncontested on the perimeter or free under the basket to collect offensive rebounds.

Wojciechowski switched to a zone defense midway through the IUPUI game, which appeared to be effective for the most part.

Not only will the Hawkeye offense challenge the Golden Eagles on Thursday, but the big lineup will also give Marquette more preparation for Monday’s showdown with No. 23 LSU and star freshman Ben Simmons in New York. Simmons is listed at 6-foot10 but plays at small forward,

presenting a matchup nightmare for any team. The Australian is averaging 16.5 points, 11 rebounds and 5.5 assists so far.

result, Marquette will face another tough matchup in either Arizona State or North Carolina State Tuesday.

New front line for MSOC Three graduating forwards hand offense to youth

By Jack Goods

jack.goods@marquette.edu

When the men’s soccer team hits the pitch again this spring, the forward group will look very different.

All three of Marquette’s starting forwards from this season – C. Nortey, David Selvaggi and Kelmend Islami–will be graduating. Those three led Marquette in scoring. In their place will be three players who have never been full-time college starters. As the roster currently stands, redshirt sophomore Daniel Szczepanek, freshman Toby Howell and junior Nick Parianos are the frontrunners.

Despite never receiving a fulltime starting role, Szczepanek has plenty of experience. After playing in every game his redshirt freshman season, he played in 16 games this year, with six starts. He was given a larger role at points due to Selvaggi’s injuries.

“Experience really helps you develop,” Szczepanek said. “I’ve seen a lot of players play that position, a lot of good players from Marquette. To be able to not just see it, but be able to ex-

perience it, I think that’s really helped me develop as a player and understand my role.”

Howell, like many of his classmates, got playing time earlier than Szczepanek, and has seen more time on the pitch than the usual Marquette freshman. He started five games, played in 14 and recorded one assist.

“Anytime that we get more bonus experience, that’s going to help us,” Howell said. “Game time is invaluable. Playing more than we (the freshmen) thought we were going to will definitely help the team going forward.”

He was able to learn a lot from the veterans, despite playing a slightly different style.

“It’s not necessarily them talking to me or telling me the ropes,” Howell said. It’s just observing them and how they carry themselves, how they go about playing the game. After the season was over I took a step back and realized what I could learn from them.

It was a lot. They are really great role models to watch.”

Parianos missed the entire season after tearing his ACL and meniscus and chipping his cartilage on his femur bone during training in 2014. It’s been a long road, but he’s back running and training at a non-contact level. He’s working on getting his strength back and plans to be 100 percent for the spring games.

Redshirt sophomore Daniel Szczepanek started six games this season.

“I still have a lot of pain and discomfort, but when I’m training and playing I don’t think about it as much,” Parianos said. “It’s just the recovery after. It’s sore for that evening, a day or two.”

The centerforward doesn’t think it will change the way he plays in a negative way, and expects to get his speed back quickly.

It could take some time for the three to click, since they haven’t played as a unit before. The spring season will be key for the players to familiarize themselves with each other. Howell wasn’t at

Marquette the last time Parianos played, and despite Parianos and Szczepanek being roommates, the two need time together on the pitch to click.

“We have chemistry off the field, but on the field it’s a different thing,” Szczepanek said.

“The way to build that is just playing with each other. Once Nick gets back fully and the freshmen come in, we get to just play around together. That’s going to help build chemistry. I think chemistry is a huge component to being successful.”

academic or religious reasons, I knew I had to make a change,” Hyink said.

The president called the switch a “huge jump” and cited the historical reputation of the Milwaukee club as a reason why he believes this location will be better off as their new facility.

The Milwaukee Curling club has existed since 1845 and is the longest continually operating curling club in the United States, according to the club’s website.

Hank Bowman, president of the Milwaukee Curling Club, said he is excited for Marquette to call the club home. The team brings youth to the club’s new five-sheet facility, which opened in 2012.

“The Milwaukee Curling Club is pleased to be able to offer practice ice time to allow the Marquette Curling Club to prosper in their efforts to support and promote the

sport of curling,” Bowman said in an email. “Any chance we have to expand and promote the sport of curling through our new facility in Cedarburg is key to our club growth goals and we are excited to be considered ‘home ice’ for Marquette.”

Bowman emphasized the historic club’s goals to appeal to all ages, with an emphasis on younger generations of curlers. Marquette’s involvement could potentially bring bonspiels, or curling tournaments, to the facility in the future.

“The addition of the Marquette Curling Club to our facility speaks to that intent of exposing curling and all it teaches to younger members of society,” Bowman said. “By introducing curling through the (Milwaukee Curling Club) and through the Marquette program, we increase the likelihood of advancing our own youth to the levels of national and international competition.”

Curling club swept from old rink

Team left former location after 21 years over dispute

By Robby Cowles

robert.cowles@marquette.edu

For the first time since its inception in 1993, the Marquette Curling Club will train at a new location.

Marquette began practicing at the Milwaukee Curling Club in Cedarburg, after spending the past 21 years at the Wauwatosa Curling Club. Although the Milwaukee club has a prestigious reputation,

the decision for Marquette’s move came after a controversial dispute.

“Over the summer they informed us that they switched our practice time from Fridays 3:30 to 6:30 to Sundays at 8 p.m,” club president Jonathan Hyink said. “They did not even inform us at all that they were discussing changing our time, and we assumed everything would flow as usual.”

The senior and first-year president thought the time change was unfair to his club and its members.

“Knowing our club members would vehemently be against this time slot, whether it be for

Weak noncon hurts turnout

Marquette’s team joins the longest continually operated club in the nation.

Monday night, the diehard Golden Eagles fans made their way down to the Bradley Center to see Marquette face a small-major opponent, the IUPUI Jaguars. The students didn’t fill up the lower bowl, a familiar sight during weeknight games. It’s a far cry from the “greatest student section in the country,” as PA Announcer Mike Jakubowski calls it. The official attendance for the entire arena was a bit more than 11,000.

With the look of this year’s nonconference schedule, many students could be dressed as empty seats for the next few months. The few interesting clashes this season mostly take place on the road. LSU and either Arizona State or NC State will be in Brooklyn. The annual and much anticipated Wisconsin matchup is in Madison this year.

Tonight the team plays Iowa, their only home game against a team that is ranked in the Top 200 out of 351 teams in the KenPom rankings. After that, it’s a wasteland–a wonderful collection of some of the worst programs in college basketball.

Here’s the remaining non-conference schedule listed in order and the team’s respective KenPom rankings: Jackson St. (229), Grambling St. (351, last in the country), Maine (331), San Jose St. (342), Chicago St. (347), Presbyterian (330) and Stetson (325). Three of those games, Grambling St., San Jose St. and Chicago St. are on weekdays.

Not surprisingly, the students who showed up an hour early to a game against IUPUI at 8 p.m. on a Monday night aren’t planning on missing out on any Marquette action this season. Many of the students were attending the game out of obligation. Multiple said they were there because they spent 99 dollars on season tickets. Since you pay for the whole season, you might as well get the most of it.

But the casual fan? That’s a bigger question. The team will likely be winning, which fans like to see, but how much winning is too much winning? Does such a concept exist? At what point do people get tired of blowouts? Or if IUPUI is any indication how this season will go, when do people get frustrated by a team struggling to beat low-major programs?

If past games are any indication, those diehards may be a bit lonely.

Two years ago, the New Hampshire and Grambling State games had 13,000 people in attendance.

NJIT last season saw 11,000. The average attendance was 15,327 two years ago, and 14,318 last year if you take out the game at the Al McGuire Center.

If the Golden Eagles do hope for an attendance boost, it will simply be “the Henry Ellenson effect.”

Fans will be coming to see the future NBA player while they can, despite the fact that he’ll be playing far inferior talent.

Hockey a family matter for Barnes Freshman forward adapting to MU without cousins

By Jamey Schilling

andrew.schilling@marquette.edu

For Marquette hockey freshman forward Lee Barnes, hockey has always been a family affair. He first began playing the game at the age of three, when he began attending his cousins’ games. From that moment on, a friendly rivalry was born.

Growing up in Naperville, Illinois, Barnes was rarely lonely.

He is the second oldest child with six sisters and is not short on cousins either. Barnes has 32 cousins and grew up both competing and socializing with them.

“I’m always trying to do things they can do to keep up with them, and we all kind of learn from each other on and off the ice, Barnes said. “We’re all buddies off the ice too, so that’s a lot of fun.”

The closeness with his cousins continued throughout high school. After spending his first two years of high school on a club hockey team, the Naperville Sabres, he decided to take his talents to his high school’s team.

During his two-year career at

Benet Academy, Barnes played with three of his cousins, including two on the same offensive line as him.

Perhaps having four bloodrelated family members helped team chemistry. Benet rode a 26-game winning streak into the 2014 Illinois State Hockey Red Division Championship, although the team ended up losing 3-2 in overtime to Glenbrook North.

Even now, though, Barnes has kept his family ties close as he’s roommates with one of his cousins at Marquette.

By electing to attend Marquette, Barnes became the second athlete from his family to represent the school. His oldest sister is redshirt sophomore Nicki Barnes, a defensive specialist on the volleyball team.

“My older sister goes here, so I knew I was going to come here,” Barnes said. “Then I found out that they had a club team so I figured I might as well try out.”

Barnes tried out for the team because he wanted to meet new friends. He also thought it would be a good method of staying in shape while allowing him to continue his career in the sport he loves.

“It’s been fun, they’re a great group of guys,” he said.

Barnes has found more than

new friends–he’s found a role as a major offensive weapon on the team. Through 16 games, Barnes is third on the team in both points (17) and assists (10). He’s also displayed his goal scoring ability, tallying seven goals so far this season, which ties him for fifth best on the team.

“He’s a great hockey player,” head coach Will Jurgensen said. “He’s got some of the best hands on the team. He’s probably had the most pretty goals this season.”

Barnes credits his fellow forwards, junior Johnny Stillman and sophomore Brian Kennedy, for his offensive success.

“I’m getting fed a lot of good passes, and they’re finishing off plays that I give to them,” Barnes said. “It’s just been fun playing with them.”

Despite his recent success, Barnes has had to adjust to the pace and physicality of college hockey and has had low moments, one of which was a turning point for his confidence this season. Jurgensen selected Barnes to skate first in the shootout against Robert Morris-White in September. With all the pressure, he missed and Marquette went on to lose the game.

“I was pretty disappointed in myself,” Barnes said.

Since then, he’s improved his

Freshman Lee Barnes is third on the team with 17 points and 10 assists.

game as an offensive leader. He proved how far he’s come during this past weekend’s shootout against Missouri State. Barnes was once again selected for the shootout. This time, the result was far different. He scored, and Marquette went on to win the game.

“As a freshman, that’s always pretty impressive,” Jurgensen said.

Barnes has gained steam and his coach has taken notice.

“Lee’s definitely become more confident in recent weeks,” Jurgensen said. “I think any freshman who comes takes a little while to get adjusted to the kind of speed and physicality. It’s a big step up from these kids playing high school hockey.”

What started out as a source of new friends and exercise has transformed into a starring role on the region’s number one club hockey team.

MU club sports adds Brazilian jiu-jitsu Newest martial arts group officially joins next semester

By Robby Cowles

robert.cowles@marquette.edu

Sprawl. Hook. Sweep.

Marquette’s newest club sport is Brazilian jiu-jitsu, a form of martial arts that focuses on ground fighting and grappling.

Aidan Flanagan, a sophomore and the founding president of the club, practiced Brazilian jiujitsu throughout high school but

found it difficult to continue when he got to Marquette.

“There’s (martial arts) schools around here but unless you have a car you won’t go to those, and those are very expensive,” Flanagan said. “It’s like $200 a month. You’re a college student, you’re not really going to spend all that money, so why not get a club going here?”

Sophomore vice president Andrew Salinas emphasized that the club will be open to all people, regardless of their background in martial arts or Brazilian jiu-jitsu.

“We want to attract a big audience so we want people who have

Player of the Week Luke Fischer Despite a rocky start for the men’s basketball team, Luke Fischer has been nothing but consistent through two games. His two double-double performances brought his week’s averages to 14.5 points, 10 rebounds and 1.5 blocks. He also shot 69 percent from the field (9-for-13) and the free-throw line (11-for-16).

Fischer’s leadership on both ends of the floor led head coach Steve Wojciechowski to name the redshirt junior from Germantown one of his three captains for the season, along with redshirt sophomore Duane Wilson and senior Michael Mache.

backgrounds in Brazilian jiu-jitsu and people who don’t,” Salinas said. “They can feel like they’re not pressured into a competitive atmosphere, but it is there if you want to do that.”

“Every practice you should come ready to work, but it’s not like you have to be afraid or be nervous,” Flanagan said. “Mainly it’s just to give people the opportunity to learn something new, give them the opportunity to make some friends and get some exercise in the process.”

Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu will be the third martial arts club at Marquette, joining Tae Kwon Do and Kuk

Sool Won, but Salinas pointed out the differences between the clubs.

“Kuk Sool Won is more of an art form, it’s not as competitive,” Salinas said. “It’s more you do it for yourself and learn for yourself, almost like dance. Tae Kwon Do is more competitive, and (with) that type of martial art... you’re kicking someone. Brazilian ju-jitsu is more grappling.”

In order for it to become an official club at Marquette, the Brazilian jiu-jitsu club must have at least 10 initial members, which will not be a problem according to Flanagan.

“We already have 20

(members) lined up,” Flanagan said. “They’re on deck to sign, so it’s not like we’re going to struggle to get those.”

Finding and recruiting interested students to become members of the new club has not been difficult. The club, which will begin practicing and competing next semester, already has members with different skill levels.

“A lot of people, especially guys, are interested right off the bat,” Salinas said. “If anything, we’re worried about not having enough space to accommodate everyone that actually shows up.

There’s a lot of people interested.”

Marquette volleyball head coach Ryan Theis’ credo of “one match at a time” will take on a whole new significance this weekend.

Even though his team clinched its spot in the BIG EAST tournament last weekend, this weekend’s results still matter a great deal. Marquette currently holds the fourth seed in the BIG EAST with an 11-5 conference record, which places them in fourth behind Creighton, Villanova and Xavier. The Golden Eagles will take on Butler Friday before a decisive clash with Xavier Saturday.

Creighton has already wrapped up the top spot with a 14-1 BIG EAST mark, but seeds two through four are still up for negotiation.

This means that Marquette has an opportunity to improve its BIG EAST standing with wins this weekend, although they will need some help to do it. Villanova holds the tiebreaker with Marquette because of games won in head-to-head matchups, and Xavier knocked off Marquette in straight sets when the two teams met in September. In other words, the Golden Eagles will most likely need two victories this weekend and two losses by either Xavier or Villanova to improve their seeding and avoid Creighton in the first round of the conference tournament.

All of this complex calculus is irrelevant to Theis, who says that the road to a potential BIG EAST title will be difficult no matter how things turn out.

“We look at it as ‘you’ve got to beat two good teams in a row,’” he said. “Nobody in our world is tanking games or trying extra hard to change seeds.”

Before any of that even comes into consideration, Marquette must first procure two difficult road victories. Butler is up first, and playing them can be a tricky proposition. The Bulldogs notched a marquee win over Villanova two weeks ago and own the BIG EAST lead in blocks per set with 2.49. The Golden Eagles and the Bulldogs are the only two teams in the conference to have two players averaging over a block per set: redshirt freshman Jenna Rosenthal and redshirt junior Meghan Niemann for Marquette, and

Weekend finale to decide seeding MU would play No. 1 Creighton in first round match

The Golden Eagles will need two wins and a pair of Xavier and Villanova losses to dig themselves out of fourth place in the BIG EAST standings.

freshmen Briana Lilly and Makaila Jarema for Butler.

“Butler is a young team that has gotten better and better all year,” Theis said. “We’ll have our hands full.”

Xavier comes into its final weekend with some confidence as well, having won six of its last seven matches. The Musketeers also hold the mental edge of having already defeated Marquette 25-23, 25-16, 25-19. Marquette hit only .147 as a team in that match, and vaunted freshman outside hitter Taylor Louis had perhaps her least productive performance of the season, notching only nine kills and committing six errors on 41 swings.

“Xavier’s offense is very fast,” Theis remarked. “Abbey Bessler, their outside hitter, is a strong candidate for Player of the Year in the conference, too.”

The Butler match gets underway at 5 p.m. on Friday, and the final regular season fixture against Xavier tips off at 6 p.m. The Xavier match will be televised on the BIG EAST Digital Network.
