Counseling Center takes steps to better serve Katherine Kehoe Projects Manager

More than 4,000 students used the Counseling Center last year, and the number grows steadily every year, according to the Center’s director Monica Osburn.

To cope with the increasing demands of students, Student Health Services successfully requested a student-fee increase to raise the Center’s yearly income. The student fee increase, which took effect this semester, has so far allowed the Center to hire

five new staff members and add four new counseling offices on Centennial Campus.

With the rising volume in the Center, students had begun to notice longer wait times, which can sometimes be up to two weeks for an initial or follow-up appointment. Hiring new staff members was meant to help bring this number down, but a tragedy in the beginning of the year has caused an unforeseen spike in the number of students coming in for counseling services, Osburn said.

Although wait times are still high

“I don’t think I could have gotten as far as I have today and managed it as well as I have without the help of the Counseling Center” -Mandy Adamson, a junior studying psychology

for many students, a new program implemented this year has brought the wait time down for many other students in need. The Center now offers walk-in appointments for urgent cases when students are in significant distress.

“We are not making a student who is having a crisis wait two weeks,” Osburn said. “But, if a student is experiencing academic distress, they are the ones that usually have to wait a little longer.”

For many students who use the

Center for regular appointments to deal with stress, anxiety or seasonal depression, this system works well for them.

Mandy Adamson, a junior studying psychology, said it took her two days to get an appointment the first time she tried, and now she sees a counselor once every two weeks.

“I think two weeks has been just enough for me to have time to work stuff out on my own, but also to know that I have an appointment

Mental health awareness week promotes a stigma-free campus Conor Kennedy Staff Writer

NC State is participating this week in the 25th annual National Mental Health Awareness week, put on by NC State’s chapter of the National Alliance on Mental Illness (NAMI).

NAMI has been working on a national scale during the first full week of October to bring more attention to mental health issues, which affect an estimated 43.8 million American adults, according to NAMI. The organization plans to accomplish this by focusing on various aspects of those issues and turning them into themes.

This year’s theme is the “StigmaFree” initiative. The initiative will incorporate a social media campaign consisting of students pictured holding signs about mental health awareness. At an information table in the Brickyard, students can learn more about mental health issues, play “stomp out the stigma,” a variation of Twister, and participate in other activities in the name of mental health awareness.

Being “stigma free,” according to NAMI’s website, means learning about and educating others on mental illness, connecting with people to see each other as individuals and not just as a diagnosis and most importantly, taking action on mental health issues and taking the StigmaFree pledge.

The Counseling Center’s new mental health ambassadors are working with the NC State NAMI chapter to operate an information table located in the Brickyard to pass out green awareness ribbons and help inform students about the topic of mental health through today.

“One thing students seemed to be particularly confused about is the specifics of what the stigma is and how it affects mental health issues,” said Joshua Gerrans, one of the information table operators and a junior studying psychology.

A stigma is described as a mark of disgrace associated with a particular person, quality or circumstance. With regard to mental illness, stigmas are conceived as a kind of shame associated with an individ-

ual’s affliction with a mental illness. The goal of this week is to combat that kind of thinking and promote a safer environment for people suffering from mental illness to come forward and seek help.

After the recent student death at NC State, there has been a surge of support on campus for those facing mental health issues.

“It has spurred a lot more traffic at the Counseling Center and greater community awareness,” said Megan McDowell, a mental health ambassador for the Counseling Center and a senior studying psychology.

“It’s good that more people on campus are reaching out.”

Such surges of support can be common in the wake of tragic campus events like the ones experienced at NC State and across the country in Oregon but can ultimately lack the impact necessary to bring about effective change, according to Avi Aggarwal, president of NC State’s NAMI chapter and a senior studying chemical engineering “I think that if the conversation is not continued then we won’t be able to break the barriers that need to be broken,” Aggarwal said. “I’m hoping the conversations continue and that we can leverage the momentum we have right now to create more effective changes on campus, such as peer counseling groups.”

More concrete initiatives focused on educating students is a big priority for Aggarwal, who has recently been pushing a program called “the Two-Minute Talks” in which students would be trained to give two-minute presentations about mental health in various classrooms around campus. This program would be part of an effort to consistently bring mental health conversations to the forefront of student life.

Consistent attention is important because even with the supporting community that is NC State, the NAMI information table in the Brickyard sat slightly neglected by the students who walked past.

“I wish there were more people that would come and ask questions but most only seem to come for the candy,” Gerrans said.

Law enforcement and Amtrak officials consort in front of Piedmont Train 74, a passenger train coming into Raleigh from Charlotte, which struck a pedestrian who was trespassing on the track near Sullivan Hall. The pedestrian has been identified as Maurice Sutton, 51.

Amtrak train hits, kills pedestrian near Sullivan Hall Staff Report The North Carolina Department of Transportation said that at approximately 3:15 p.m. on Tuesday a pedestrian was struck and killed by an eastbound train on the train tracks that border the north side of NC State’s campus.

The pedestrian was 51-year-old Maurice Sutton of Raleigh. Sutton was not affiliated with NC State, according to Raleigh Police Department.

Sutton was struck on a section of track that is behind 621 Motor Pool St., near Sullivan Hall.

Hannah Davis, the communications officer for multi-modal transportation at NCDOT, confirmed that Piedmont Train 74, a passenger train coming into Raleigh from Charlotte, struck a pedestrian who was trespassing on the track near Sullivan Hall.

She said the train engineer deployed the emergency break, but she did not know if that happened before impact. That train normally runs at 77 mph.

Raleigh Police Department is leading the investigation and DOT had employees on the scene Tuesday afternoon.

During the investigation out on the tracks, the Raleigh Police Department blocked off part of Sullivan Drive and Valentine Drive in connection with the investigation involving the train. The tracks cut through campus, going over Dan Allen Drive and

under Gorman Street.

According to Jesse Tart, a sophomore studying engineering, he had been standing outside of Sullivan Hall since the police arrived on the scene.

“There were five or six Raleigh police officers in their blue uniforms walking up and down the tracks looking for something,” Tart said.

Brad Bohlander, associate vice chancellor for University Communications, said that at 3:30 p.m.

University Police was called out to the scene by the Raleigh Police Department.

“It’s important that students know that the train tracks are lined by a tall fence that spans the length of campus,” Bohlander said.

There are no reports of injury of the 24 passengers nor the engineer who was riding on the train.

According to general statute 14-280.1. a person commits trespassing on the railroad right-of-way if they enter onto the tracks or remain on them without the consent of the railroad company, the person operating the railroad or without authority granted pursuant to State or federal law.

Trespassing on railroad right-of-way is a Class 3 misdemeanor, which can result in one to 20 days of active, intermediate or community punishment and/or up to $200 in fines.

Shack-A-Thon president hopes to break fundraising record Scott Skinner Correspondent

Andrea Sellers, a junior studying parks, recreation and tourism management, and Ryan Levine, a freshman studying fisheries and wildlife science and conservation biology, man the College of Natural Resources shack for Shack-A-Thon Sept. 22. The college built its shack out of bamboo taken from Hill Forest outside Durham.

The yearly Shack-a-Thon fundraiser, put together by NC State’s student chapter of Habitat for Humanity, hopes to once again brake their fundraising record.

Student chapter president Sarah Paluskiewicz, said that this year’s fundraiser went exceptionally well.

“I feel confident that we saw $50,000,” Paluskiewicz said.

The announced goal of $65,000 for Shack-A-Thon 2015 was significantly higher than pervious years. However, Paluskiewicz said wasn’t surprised when the actual number of monies raised was somewhat lower.

“That was a dream goal,” Paluskie-

wicz said. “We put that number out as a representative of a house in Wake County.”

The fundraiser brought in about $46,000 in 2014 and $37,000 in 2013.

The consistent increase in Shack-AThon’s revenue showcases the ever growing enthusiasm NC State students have for the activity, which has quickly become a student favorite.

This year’s top-earning group was the Poole College of Management followed by the College of Natural Resources with its specially grown and harvested bamboo shack. Bringing up the rear was the Caldwell Fellows’ shack. Paluskiewicz intends to take advantage of the momentum gained during Shack-A-Thon to help propel future fundraising efforts.

“We’re going to push for organi-

zations that participated in ShackA-Thon to continue participating throughout the year,” Paluskiewicz said.

The success of the student chapter’s fundraising efforts is intended to culminate with the Build-A-Block project that is expected to be ready next year. The Build-A-Block project is an effort between the student chapter and its Wake County affiliate to raise $715,000 to “Build-A-Block” of 11 townhomes on Lake Wheeler Road.

The plan is to build the first five townhomes in the fall of 2016 and the last six in the spring of 2017. The property is two-an-a-half acres and is within walking distance of both a grocery store and a bus stop. The fundraising began Aug. 22 and will conclude at Shack-A-Thon in 2016.

just around the corner if there is ever something I really want to talk about,” Adamson said.

Student feedback on the Counseling Center showed that some students had trouble getting to the Center and wanted another option, which prompted the Center to add an additional four offices to a space in the Research Building II on Centennial Campus.

“What we recognized … is that it was difficult for students who had most of their classes on Centennial Campus to come over here, find parking or take the bus — it was a lot of time in that transportation,” Osburn said. “We didn’t want access to be a barrier for them to get help.”

Osburn said the new space was a

necessary addition to the Center because, after bringing in five new staff members, the Main Campus facility is out of space.

There are different variables that affect the number of students who request appointments at the Counseling Center. This semester, a student’s death on campus caused a sharp increase in the amount of students coming in to get help.

Increased awareness, however, has been the largest and most consistent factor in the increasing number of students coming into the Center, Osburn said.

“We have increased our outreach tremendously,” Osburn said. “It feels safer when students can see us on the outside of the office and realize ‘oh, they aren’t so bad.’”

Getting to where students are is one of the main strategies the Center has implemented to reach out to more

students. In addition to attending meetings and events across campus to spread the word about the counseling options, the Center has set up dropin appointment hours at the GLBT Center, The Office of International Students, and it is working on getting them set up at the office of Multicultural Student Affairs.

Student outreach has been an extremely influential part of the Center’s effort to raise awareness. This year, student ambassadors from the Counseling Center and members of NC State’s Chapter of the National Alliance on Mental Illness set up a table on the Brickyard to promote a #StopTheStigma campaign for Mental Illness Awareness Week.

Avi Aggarwal, president of NC State’s Chapter of the National Alliance on Mental Illness and a senior studying chemical engineering, said the focus of this year’s event is getting

people to understand that certain words, such as “psycho” or “crazy,” can have negative stigma associated with mental illness attached to them.

“Our goal is to really change behavior and change thought, and to have people think about what they are saying and change their language,” Aggarwal said.

Stigma affects the way students view other people’s, as well as their own, mental illnesses and it can potentially stop people from seeking the help they need.

According to Aggarwal, stigma comes from a lack of understanding, and a lack of understanding leads to isolation.

“One form of stigma is fear,” Aggarwal said. “People don’t know what to say, so often times they just disengage if they are uncomfortable talking about mental health.”

One example that Aggarwal said

she has noticed on campus is that some people regard mental illness as attention-seeking behavior, or claim that students are being lazy or just acting up.

“If you look at the statistics, more than one in four people has a diagnosable mental illness, but no one really talks about it,” Aggarwal said. “Because of that, all of these people don’t seek help. So there is a lot of misunderstanding about it.”

Adamson said she suggests every student should look past stigmas and stereotypes and try an appointment at the Counseling Center.

“I don’t think I could have gotten as far as I have today and managed it as well as I have without the help of the Counseling Center,” Adamson said.

“More students should take advantage of this resource.”

{ OUR VIEW }

Changing the conversation about mental health “She’s such a psycho.” “It was so hard, I wanted to kill myself.” “He’s so bipolar sometimes.”

The language we use in everyday conversations says a lot about how we think about mental illnesses. It says we don’t recognize the importance of mental health, and at some level it says we are unsympathetic.

One in five adults suffers from a mental illness, according to the National Alliance on Mental Illness. The number is higher and growing among college students. One in three college students reported prolonged periods of depression, and half of students rated their mental health below average or poor, according to NAMI. Experiencing mental illness is not uncommon,

The unsigned editorial is the opinion of the members of Technician’s editorial board and is the responsibility of the editor-in-chief. nor is it something to be ashamed of, and although many of us are aware of this, our language and our actions might suggest otherwise.

North Carolina cut $110 million from its eight regional mental health agencies in late September, undermining the necessity of comprehensive mental health care.

A few days later, mental health advocacy groups drew attention to a Halloween store in Crabtree Valley Mall that was selling a blood-spattered costume with the words “Dorothea Dix Psych Ward” written on it — perpetuating a stereotype that mental

illnesses are synonymous with violence.

When people do offer support for those experiencing mental illnesses, it is often misguided. We tell them to relax, calm down, everything will be OK. Pro-gun politicians conveniently discuss a need for more mental health support in the face of tragedy so as to avoid talking about a need for gun control, yet they are often the same politicians who do not provide sufficient funding for mental health support.

Language shapes our perceptions, and in the case of casually referencing suicidal thoughts and mental disorders, it adds to

the stigma and can lead people to shy away from seeking help.

In the face of yet another mass shooting and in the middle of the NAMI’s mental illness awareness week, mental health is at the forefront of our minds. We need to change how we talk about mental illnesses by (1) actually talking about them and (2) talking about them respectfully. The words we use matter, and they may be the difference between someone seeking help and suffering silently. We need to remember that people are not their illnesses, and we need to be cautious of our word choices — not in the name of political correctness, but in the name of empathy.

White privilege and hip-hop M

usic is so deeply and intricately woven into black culture that I’d argue it is impossible to separate the two. From chanting hymns while bent over while toiling in fields of cotton to chanting “We Shall Overcome” up and Chauncey down streets during the civil rights movement Bowden while being hosed down. From cleverly singing Correspondent paths to freedom in the Underground Railroad to when James Brown had us shuffling down soul train lines to “Say it Loud (I’m Black and I’m Proud).”

In the past, black music was readily and eagerly accepted by whites, while the musicians and singers of these ballads were rejected. Milking them of their gifts and talents, whites shunned singers like Dorothy Dandridge, swooning as she sang and sashayed across stages, but forcing her to use the back entrance of venues. This phenomenon, while cleverly disguised, is ever-present in American culture.

Young white girls dancing around their bedrooms yelling out Fetty Wap’s lyrics to “Trap Queen,” which by the way is entirely played out at this point. White men, happily and openly singing Future’s “Trap N----s” while pushing luxury cars to their fraternity houses, not understanding 40 percent of the lyrics, let alone knowing what and where “the trap” actually is. When in good company, some even dare utter the word “N-----,” but only when they can be assured that those around them won’t be “offended.” What’s the big deal though?

They’re just lyrics right?

Here’s the deal: hip-hop is a part of black culture that white society has had no problems policing and morphing to their liking. Our hair, our dress, even our names must conform to white ideals in order to be deemed “acceptable.” When rapper Nas and singer Kelis wore attire with the word “N-----” plastered across them to the Grammys in 2008, they certainly rocked the boat.

While some may say that this was simply a promotion tactic for his upcoming album, Nas certainly had a point. In an interview with a white CNN reporter, Nas stated, “It’s money being made off us poor, innocent, so-called ignorant people. So no longer are just black people n-----s today, it’s also me and you.”

It is certainly true that hip-hop is a profitable business.

Forbes.com created an article entitled “Hip-Hop Cash Kings,” which highlights some of the most financially successful rappers in the game. Diddy is now considered a mogul after being named the highest paid rapper at $60 million a year. Of the five men listed in the article, none of them were white. Yet, whites in America have played a crucial role in the success of hip-hop around the world.

According to an article by Michael Ralph, “70 to 75 percent of the people who purchase and own hip-hop music are white,” and although hip-hop is an industry that is dominated by blacks, none of the distribution companies that these label owners partner with are black.

The rappers we listen to are black. The lyrics that they rap generally pertain to the black community. And while rappers such as Macklemore and Iggy Azalea are celebrated for “pushing the envelope,” others are shunned and deemed misfits by society. Hip-hop is the ultimate example of how whites profit off of black culture, while shunning the very people who inspire it in the process.

I have a love-hate relationship with hip-hop, its evolution so different from its birth in the Bronx. It is not easily defined.

Ranging from Mos Def to Gucci Mane, hip-hop covers a gamut of topics. While some emcees and rappers choose to focus on trap life, others rap about police brutality and politics. And whether or not some blacks chose to admit it or not, hip-hop is a part of OUR culture.

Yes, there is beauty in exchanging cultures as society, and I am not discouraging whites from buying Drake and Future’s new mixtape. But when whites sing along to Kendrick Lamar’s “King Kunta,” do they know who Kunta is? Does the message behind that song resonate with them, or is it just catchy? These may just be lyrics to them, but to many they are the picture of how far we’ve come since singing in fields of cotton.

Hip-hop for the black person will always be more than just a song.

Fear of international trade still lingers A

fter days of exhausting talks, the United States and the other 11 Pacific-Rim countries finally reached an agreement Monday to the landmark trade deal — the largest regional trade agreement in history, according to The New York Times.

Ziyi Mai If this unprecedentStaff Columnist ed deal is implemented, that would bring dramatic changes to the landscape of international trade and globalization. This pact is more than just a conventional trade deal in which cutting tariffs, quota and eliminating regulations are the major component. The Trans-Pacific Partnership has reached beyond the traditional free trade agreement and touched new challenges such as unifying standards of labor, environmental and intellectual property. The U.S. negotiators said that the Trans-Pacific Partnership will make efforts to form a fair playfield by imposing tough labor and environmental standards on all trading partners, and make sure intellectual property rights are well enforced.

Furthermore, the Trans-Pacific Partnership will push economical and even political changes in the emerging economies such as Vietnam and Malaysia. Partners under the pact should agree not to block cross-border transfers of data over the Internet and not require that servers be located in the country in order to conduct business in that country. Another proposal of the Trans-Pacific Partnership seeks to ensure competitiveness in the market

and pay little favoritism to state-owned enterprises. This will mainly affect emerging economies such as Vietnam and Malaysia.

All these terms of the Trans-Pacific Partnership show that this deal will pave way for the U.S. to assert more leadership in the Asia-Pacific region, besides being beneficial from trade.

Officials from the Obama administration have repeatedly said that the partnership would “build a bulwark against China’s economic influence, and allow the United States and its allies — not Beijing — to set the standards for Pacific commerce.”

Though preliminary agreement has reached, Congress’ approval is needed to finalize the deal. But many members of Congress have expressed concerns and skepticism of the Trans-Pacific Partnership. The strongest opposition comes from Obama’s own party: Democratic presidential candidate Bernie Sanders and Hillary Clinton.

Along with the labor union and environmental activities, the members claim that terms regarding f low of services will lead jobs in the service industry to be outsourced, moving to places where labor costs are much cheaper than the U.S. Besides traditional opponents of free trade, some big companies have joined course. Ford Motor Company quickly reacted to the passing of the Trans-Pacific Partnership deal, issuing a statement against it. Ford Motor’s major concern was that other trading partners could manipulate currency to have unfair trade. The statement urged Congress not to approve the deal.

Why has the Trans-Pacific Partnership deal stirred up so many skirmishes in the U.S.? One of the explanation is that trade, especially unfair trade, has been demonized by politicians through media outlets. The way that many Americans judge “unfair” trade only by looking at prices. If the price of an imported good or service is significant lower than the same good manufactured in the state, it might be subject to the “unfair trade” perception. However, that difference in prices is exactly the point of free trade — through comparative advantage of one country producing a particular good or service that is more productive than the other, so that both trading partners can be better off.

One assumption to support the above rationale is that those countries should be approximately similar in terms of institutional structure but not endowments and natural resources such Japan and Canada, for example.

But in this Trans-Pacific Partnership deal, many of its terms are dedicated to establishing a fair institutional environment for all trading partners. Several advanced countries — Canada, the U.S., Australia, Japan and Singapore — should be obliged to take leadership and set standards.

The Trans-Pacif ic Partnership deal might help the emerging market economies more than it does the developed ones. But to the U.S., the deal would imply a leadership in the region in which its benefit can go beyond merely trade in the future.

The quest for more affordable nanotech Noah Russ Staff Writer

Although nanotechnology is a relatively new area of science, it has already provided the world with seemingly futuristic products. The innovation of nanotechnology can be seen in products such as artificial muscle fibers and bacteria-repellent textiles. Unfortunately, there are several barriers to the advancement of nanotechnology.

NC State, UNC-Chapel Hill and Duke have partnered to help overcome these barriers and make nanotechnology more accessible to students, educators and the general public.

Nanotechnology is a type of technology that applies the principles of science on an extremely small scale.

“Nanotechnology is the purposeful manipulation of matter at the atomic scale; an example, the designing and building of materials at a very small scale,” said James Bonner, a professor of biology and a nanoresearcher.

Since the development of nanotechnology requires the study of materials at the atomic level, it can be quite expensive for research to access the resources needed. NC State is leading the partnership that hopes to enable easier research and quicker development of nanotechnology.

The three-school partnership is called the Research Triangle Nanotechnology Network and is part of the National Science Foundation’s Nanotechnology Initiative program. The goal of the National Science Foundation is to create better infrastructure within the discipline of nanotechnology through the sharing of data and resources between research institutions. The Triangle was recently chosen as one of 16 locations to host the Nanotechnology Initiative program.

“The National Science Foundation wants researchers to be able to access tools so they can be innovative,” said Jacob Jones, a professor of materials science and engineering and principal investigator of Research Triangle Nanotechnology Network.

RTNN is using the monetary support of the National Science Foundation to develop and hire workers for the program. Once the program is fully established, researchers and educators throughout the Triangle and the surrounding area will have unprec-

Jacob Jones, a professor in the Department of Materials Science and Engineering, stands next to the FEI Titan Electron microscope (STEM). The FEI Titan STEM microscope is the most advanced aberration-corrected scanning transmission electron microscope in a research park in North America. Jones is the director of the Analytical Instrumentation Facility (AIF) at NC State, a university and regional resource for materials characterization. Jones has published more than 100 papers and delivered more than 60 invited lectures on these topics since 2004. He has also received numerous awards on his research and educational activities.

edented access to nanotechnology tools and information.

The biggest barrier to the advancement of nanotechnology is cost. Tools such as electron microscopes are essential to the field, but they can cost millions of dollars.

This greatly limits researchers who may not

have the funding to access the tools necessary for their studies. RTNN hopes to conquer the cost barrier by providing the tools and information needed at no cost to the researcher.

“Cost is a big hindrance, especially to educators,” Jones said. “Most universities

charge for access to their resources. People don’t want to be sent a bill for $100,000200,000.”

College students, individual researchers, corporations and anyone else interested in nanotechnology will be able to submit an application to access the resources of RTNN. Once the application is filed, these external constituents will have access to the resources of all three Triangle universities and several other members of the partnership.

Each university has its own unique advantages to offer to the network. NC State’s focus will be on providing studies in nontraditional nanotechnology applications.

“NC State has unique things to offer to the network. We have nontraditional applications of nanotechnology like agriculture, forestry and biomaterials,” Jones said.

Another barrier researchers often face is not having the credentials to operate a specific piece of equipment such as an electron microscope. Through RTNN, researchers will be able to have qualified technicians carry out any measurements they need.

The distance from the facilities needed to conduct experiments is another problem researchers sometimes face. RTNN hopes to combat the issue of distance by developing a peer-to-peer research program.

Through this program, researchers will be able to Skype another researcher at the institution who has the tools the researchers need. Their peer will then conduct the needed measurements and send the results to the researcher.

While RTNN will greatly aid the formal study of nanotechnology, it also seeks to enhance the learning experience of K-12 students. The network will partner with the Morehead Planetarium at UNC-CH to host Nano-Nights. These nights will provide a fun opportunity for young students to learn about the discipline of nanotechnology.

Jones says it will be several months before the RTNN program reaches equilibrium, but he has big goals for the future.

“I want to see a significant number of people from outside the university that used our facilities to invent new things,” Jones said. “I want to be able to count the number of patents and the number of start-ups that got their start within our facilities.”

The changing face of Oktoberfest Julia Conlon Correspondent

When we think about Oktoberfest, beer is probably the first thing that comes to mind. This is not unfounded — according to the official website of the Munich festival, 6.9 million liters of beer were consumed during 2012’s festivities. However, beer actually has very little to do with the origin of the holiday.

The first Oktoberfest was held on Oct. 12, 1810. It got its start as a wedding celebration for Bavarian King Ludwig I and his new wife Princess Therese. The newlyweds invited all the citizens of Munich to attend the wedding feast and revelry, and it was such a success that the celebration continued annually.

Oktoberfest has evolved from a fiveday feast, which featured a horse race as its main event to a three-week beer extravaganza.

“This is not so surprising since the area around Munich is traditionally an area where the ingredients for beer are grown,” said Ines Fritzenschaft, a freshman international student from Stuttgart, Germany studying business administration.

In Germany, Oktoberfest generally refers to the traditional Munich festival, but other German towns have their own feasts.

Oktoberfest has become so popular that versions of the festival are popping up all over the world, especially in America. The largest is Oktoberfest Zinzinnati, held yearly in Cincinnati, Ohio. Many American celebrations honor Bavarian tradition but add their own twists. Zinzinnati, for example, holds an annual “Running of the Wieners,” during which dachshunds in hot dog costumes are pitted against each other in a race.

The Triangle held its own Oktoberfest on Oct. 3 and 4 at the Koka

Booth Amphitheatre in Cary. It was the second annual event and included live music, a Hammerschlagen contest (a German tradition involving nailing spikes into an old stump) and a yodeling contest. Funds raised from the celebration went toward Alzheimers North Carolina as well as other local organizations.

The evolution of Oktoberfest is similar to that of St. Patrick’s Day in that both began as feasts and grew rapidly into world-recognized celebrations.

Both are wildly popular in America, and both have histories that have been obscured by their massive popularity.

Many people don’t know that St. Patrick was actually born in Britain, just as many don’t know of Oktoberfest’s beginnings as a wedding feast. But for many, it’s the spirit of the holidays that is most important.

Lisa Kremer, a senior studying communication – public relations, said that all countries add their own

dimension to Oktoberfest. Originally from Bavaria, Kremer grew up in seven different countries and has seen the festival through many different cultural lenses.

“Even though the Oktoberfest these days is a lot different than its [origin], maybe that’s the point ... bringing cultures together, celebrating and having a good time,” Kremer said.

Even within Germany, the festival is celebrated with regional diversity.

“In Stuttgart it is called Cannstatter Wasen...it goes back to 1818 and started out as an agricultural festivity and over time changed into a fair with nine big tents where people can celebrate, dance, eat and drink and fun rides like Ferris wheels,” said Fritzenschaft, who has attended the festivities in Munich and her own town.

“The Oktoberfest in Munich is too crowded and very commercial. At the smaller ones, you not only have to pay less for everything, you have a better

[view] over the fairground as well ... if you want to have the real German experience, you should go to a smaller one.”

As far as the mystery of Oktoberfest starting in September, the answer is simple: German weather.

Bittersweet Bakery - Pumpkin Cupcakes Bittersweet Bakery changes up its menu each season change to reflect the flavors of each. The fall menu will have plenty to offer for pumpkin fans, with pumpkin cupcakes and other baked goods that encompass the feeling of stepping on freshly fallen leaves on a crisp afternoon.

Big Boss Brewing Co. - Pumpkin Ale

THE RADAR The temperature is dropping and fall break is upon us.

Some look forward to the trees gradually changing into an autumn array of reds and yellows; others simply look forward to pumpkin spice season. Here are some pumpkin treats in Raleigh.

Pumpkin spice lattes are great for the morning, but what about when you want to unwind at the end of the day but still haven’t gotten your pumpkin fix? Big Boss rolls out its popular fall seasonal brew, the harvest-time pumpkin ale. The beer is brewed with real pumpkin and a mix of seasonal spices.

Lucettegrace Patisserie - Pumpkin Pie Croissants This French-style bakery brings a taste of gourmet pastries to downtown Raleigh. This fall, they premiere a new innovation to the pumpkin game with the pumpkin pie croissant. In France, the title of “Patisserie” is reserved for bakeries that have an officially licensed patissier, so the standard is high at this upscale sweet shop.

Despite having -26 yards rushing Saturday against the Cardinals, Brissett managed to avoid making the big mistakes and did not turn the ball over. Brissett has yet to throw an interception this season, a streak that has been active since playing Wake Forest last season.

Hilton’s talent is too good for him to remain a middle-of-the-road fantasy option at wideout, especially considering he’s the most targeted Colts receiver.

Other than his 80-yard touchdown reception Sunday night against the Dallas Cowboys, Spiller has been relatively non-existent in the offense, averaging two points per game in PPR formats.

The Demon Deacons (8-1-1, 3-0-1 ACC) enter the match with the confidence of being ranked No. 4 in the nation, recording their only loss against Elon Sept.15. Wake Forest has not lost a game on the road yet, a streak NC State looks to end.

Senior midfielder/forward Michael Gamble leads the Demon Deacons in goals with six on the season so far, followed by freshman midfielder Jack Harrison and sophomore forward Jon Bakero, who have each recorded four goals.

The Deacons are anchored by junior central midfielders Jacori Hayes and Ian Harkes, both of whom have experience with the U-20 U.S. Men’s National Team.

NC State’s midfield quartet has been excellent so far but will face the toughest test yet against some of the best players in the country, and the possession-focused game plan the Pack executed well against opponents like Notre Dame might falter against the supreme athleticism and technical ability of Gamble, Harkes and Hayes.

State’s midfield group of junior Yanni Hachem, sophomores Knudson and Cameron Steele and freshman Duchscherer must maintain a disciplined shape throughout the match and cannot be wasteful with their passes. Furthermore, a strong defensive effort is going to be extremely important from the Wolfpack back four.

The back line, which includes sophomore Caleb Duvernay, senior Holden Fender, senior Reed

Norton and freshman Simon Blotko, has only allowed 83 shots this season.

When starting together, this defensive group, along with senior goalkeeper Alex McCauley, has conceded more than one goal just once on the season, away against Davidson.

However, in conference, NC State has looked vulnerable on set pieces late in the first half, conceding to Virginia, Louisville and Notre Dame in this fashion before having to look for an equalizer.

This means the Pack must find success offensively earlier in the match, an area where the team has struggled for consistency, recording 130 shots on the season but scoring 17 goals. Of those 17, only five were scored by forwards.

In matches against Virginia, Boston College, Notre Dame and Louisville, the Wolfpack failed to put away first-half chances despite creating opportunities to take the lead. Of the team’s four consistently played forwards, Only Ade Taiwo has recorded more than a solitary goal this season, with two.

Since knocking off Boston College in overtime, State has lost and tied conference opposition, so a win against a top-five opponent would give the team needed momentum for a strong regular season finish.

Four of the team’s final six matches are ACC games and will include tough games against Clemson, Duke and Syracuse, as well as a ranked matchup against No. 18 South Carolina.

With home-field advantage, NC State will have a chance to end the Demon Deacons’ undefeated run through the ACC, which includes wins in three of their four previous ACC games and one tie against Clemson Sept. 26.

Pack to battle Hokies in Blacksburg

CLUB SPOTLIGHT

Joseph Ochoa Staff Writer

Nicole Malanaphy Two teams will look to get their first conference wins of the season when the NC State Wolfpack travels to Blacksburg, Virginia this Friday to challenge the Virginia Tech Hokies.

The Wolfpack (4-1, 0-1 ACC) is looking for its first conference win after a disappointing 20-13 loss to the Louisville Cardinals (2-3, 1-0 ACC). The Pack will look to move past Saturday’s stumble in a game head coach Dave Doeren is looking forward to.

“I’m honored to coach a game against coach [Frank] Beamer,” Doeren said. “I think he’s one of the classiest people that I’ve met in this business and someone I really respect and look up to.”

The story of this past weekend’s game was the inconsistency of the Wolfpack offense and the defense’s inability to stop the running ability of true freshman quarterback Lamar Jackson. The game also proved to be one of junior running back Matt Dayes’ most underwhelming performances. After rushing for more than 100 yards in his first four games, the Weston, Florida native only managed to rack up 68 yards on the ground.

State also turned the ball over on two fumbles, one of which was by junior wide receiver Jumichael Ramos on his way to the end zone, which set-up a 68-yard touchdown run by Jackson for the first score of the game. Doeren remained adamant there was more than just one play that factored in the loss.

Staff Writer

The NC State club tennis team will travel to Hilton Head Island, South Carolina to compete in the United States Tennis Association (USTA) Tennis On Campus Fall Invitational for a bid to the national tournament during the weekend of fall break.

The USTA Tennis On Campus Fall Invitational will be made up of 48 coed club collegiate teams representing colleges all over the country, including Duke and UNC-Chapel Hill, the tennis team’s rival universities.

Club tennis has participated in the Fall Invitational every year and has received third place the past two times it has attended.

This year, according to senior president Nate Weiner, the team is aiming to improve from the previous years and make it to the final round.

The winner of the Fall Invitational, as well as the runner-up, will qualify to receive an automatic bid to the USTA Tennis On Campus National Championship, which will be held in the spring in Cary.

“We are definitely hungry to make it to the final this year since we have been so close to getting that National bid,” Weiner said.

The team is coed and made up of 60 members, but not all are able to attend the USTA tournament.

“Unfortunately, we are only allowed to bring up to 10 players on a roster since club tennis plays in World Team Tennis Format, which is a shortened match format,” Weiner said. “This year we were only allowed to bring one team, too, so we were even more limited as we have been able to bring two teams in the past.”

Besides the USTA Tennis On Campus Fall Invitational, the team attends four to five other tournaments throughout the semester, traveling up and down the East Coast. The next local tournament will the weekend of Oct. 24 in Greensboro.

Even though the team has a lot of new faces, Weiner feels the team has the talent needed to succeed this year.

“I’ve been really impressed with some of the new freshmen who came out, so I think that will be great for us in the years to come,” Weiner said. “We also have a very deep team, especially on the guys’ side, so I’m confident that we will be bringing a really strong team and that we will do well.”

Club tennis practices three times a week from 5 to 7 p.m. All of the matches attended are held on the weekends, no matter how far of a distance the team must travel to get there. Each match is played to six games.

Club tennis does not host tournaments here on campus, but the next time the team will have a home match will be Oct. 18 against UNC-CH.

ons offensively than we’ve seen all year, next to Ohio State,” Beamer said about State at his weekly press conference. “It’s another critical game. We have to make great preparations, and I think we will and go play our very best.”

Part of the problem for the Hokies has been the loss of their starting quarterback, redshirt senior Michael Brewer, to a broken collarbone suffered in the second half against Ohio State the opening weekend of the season. The Hokies have been using Motley as his backup to keep the team afloat in the crowded coastal division.

Since then, the Hokies have been a .500 team, winning two straight

games followed by losing two. The Hokies will have to prove they can consistently compete against FBS schools, as they are 1-3 against such teams.

The player to keep an eye on leading up to a game for the Hokies is Brewer, who has been cleared to practice just one month after breaking his collarbone, according to an ESPN report. Beamer remained unclear on whether Brewer would be active in time for Friday’s game.

“I think the first thing we need to know is if he’s going to be available,” Beamer said. “Once we

Leading scorer and sophomore midfielder Zach Knudson leveled the score at one goal apiece in the 76th minute when he received a chip inside the box from freshman midfielder Julius Duchscherer and

With most fantasy teams playing at least a quarter of their schedules, it’s time to break out the quarter poll rankings and break down the good, the bad and the absolutely dreadful fantasy players in 2015.

The Good Mark Ingram, running back, New Orleans Saints The former Heisman Trophy winner has been the team’s leading rusher and is also stealing the receptions many thought CJ Spiller would get. The Saints have matchups with struggling defenses during the next four weeks, giving Ingram many more chances to prove himself as a borderline top-10 fantasy running back.

Tom Brady, quarterback, New England Patriots I’ve said it before, and I’ll say it again: angry Brady means great Brady. Following the Deflategate investigation that engulfed much of the 2015 offseason, Brady has come out and annihilated the competition, scoring an average of 27 points per game this season.

Larry Fitzgerald, wide receiver, Arizona Cardinals The Cardinals receiver, who was entering his 12th season in the NFL, has exceeded fantasy experts’ expectations (and mine) this year. Fitzgerald has averaged 26 points per game in PPR formats, which ranks him second behind Antonio Brown.

The Bad LeSean McCoy, running back, Buffalo Bills The Bills running back has been having an average season, struggling with a hamstring injury that sidelined him for

“Whenever you lose a one score game, there’s a lot of plays that could have altered the game,” Doeren said. “When Ramos turned it over inside the fumble, as well as the other fumble later, it was almost a 17-point swing” Meanwhile, the Hokies (2-3, 0-1 ACC) lost 17-13 to the Pittsburgh Panthers (3-1, 1-0 ACC). Quarterback Brenden Motley never got anything going during the game, as he had three interceptions and completed less than 50 percent of attempted passes.
