IN BRIEF

NC General Assembly makes changes to legislation regarding nude, sexual images

The NC Senate and House voted unanimously Wednesday to compromise legislation dealing with nude and sexual images. The measure would make it illegal to post nude or sexual images of a person without his or her affirmative consent. Someone under the age of 18 would face a misdemeanor on a first-offense. Repeat youth offenders or firsttime adult offenders would be guilty of a felony, potentially punishable with time behind bars. Civil lawsuits can be filed one year after the alleged victim learns of the posted image and no later than seven years after the image is posted. The legislation is headed to Gov. Pat McCrory’s desk.

Chapel Hill bars taking caution to prevent underage drinking Two bars in Chapel Hill are accused of selling alcohol to an underage student from UNCChapel Hill before a deadly crash on I-85 in July. Chapel Hill bars are reiterating the importance of checking IDs, though bar owners say it can be difficult to determine whether they are legitimate. Most bars require their employees to go through trainings to spot fake IDs. Two wrongful death lawsuits have been filed against the bars that served alcohol to the late UNC-CH student. SOURCE: WNCN

Marvin Malecha stands in his office at Brooks Hall. Malecha will be retiring as dean of the College of Design at the end of the current semester. Malecha expressed his deep emotions about leaving after being seen as an influential figure at the college, “I am leaving here the same way a graduate leaves — proud of what’s been accomplished, proud of the place, proud of the people.”

After more than two decades as the dean of the College of Design, Marvin Malecha will be retiring at the end of this semester. Known for academic innovation, experimentation and his round, thick-framed eyeglasses, Malecha has recently accepted the position of president and chief academic officer at the NewSchool of Architecture and Design in San Diego, California. “I don’t want anyone to construe that I am leaving because of something at NC State,” Malecha said. “I am leaving here the same way a graduate leaves — proud of what’s been accomplished, proud of the place, proud of the people.” Malecha said that he received the

offer from the NewSchool during the summer. “It is a location in the world where my granddaughter lives 15 minutes by car away from where we will be living, it is San Diego — which by the way, there is no humidity or snow there — and it’s this kind of new adventure of doing the same thing, but in a very different context,” Malecha said. “[The NewSchool] is asking me to build the same spirit of institution that has been achieved here. They are asking me to build, and I am a builder.” Malecha first came to NC State in 1994, and during his 21 years as dean of the College of Design, he has compiled an extensive list of accomplishments.

Sophomores, juniors and seniors of the Chi Omega sorority rush onto Stafford Commons outside Talley Student Union to unite with their new sorority sisters on Bid Day Sept. 16. Each potential new member present on Bid Day received a bid from one of the sororities on NC State’s campus involved with formal rush, which is an invitation to join a certain sorority. Wednesday’s Bid Day was the conclusion of NC State’s Fraternity and Sorority Life’s recruitment week.

Bid day 2015 rushes to Stafford Commons Staff Report

NC State’s Interfraternity Council fraternities and Panhellenic sororities gained hundreds of new members Wednesday at Bid Day. Bid Day is the final day of rush, a week-long process where potential new members meet and experience the vibe of the various fraternities and sororities. The event is where new members found out which fraternity or sorority they will join. This year, 599 girls went through the rush process and joined one of

the nine sororities on campus. Maren Downing, a freshman studying engineering who recently joined Sigma Kappa, said rush was an experience she will always remember. “Each day of recruitment showed another side of Greek Life and what it meant to be part of a sisterhood,” Downing said. “In the end, I know everyone ended up where they belonged, and I couldn’t be happier.” About 350 men joined one of the 20 fraternities on campus. Interfraternity Council President John Stewart said recruitment went

well this year. “We are still learning the best tactics to make this process as smooth and easy as possible,” Stewart said. “We have already seen an increase in fraternity placement, and we know that trend will continue.” Fraternity recruitment costed $50, and sorority recruitment costed $80. One dollar from every female’s rush cost went to Circle of Sisterhood, a non-profit organization that provides educational resources to women who face poverty and oppression.

BANDALOOP reaches new heights at Talley after 18 years Alexander Kanora Corresspondent

Starting tonight, the newly renovated Stewart Theatre will be packed with students and members of the NC State community, ready to see a show that hasn’t happened in Raleigh in 18 years. BANDALOOP, a dance company that uses harnesses and walls instead of the floor to dance, has been asked to come back to kick off the NC State LIVE series, the newly renovated Talley Student Union and the reopening of Stewart Theatre. “[BANDALOOP] is a truly inspiring dance company that really shifts people’s perspective and really opens people up to different possibilities,” said Sharon Moore, the director of NC State LIVE. The dance company performed at the grand opening of the Talley Student Union Sept. 9, but the group is back for performances tonight and Friday. Both shows will begin at 8 p.m. According to Moore, the return of BANDALOOP has been in planning for more than

a year. “As the planning was beginning for the renovation of Talley, I knew we needed to bring BANDALOOP back to celebrate,” Moore said. Moore still remembers when they first came to NC State in 1997. They performed at the education building, the government mall downtown and at the front of the Talley Student Union. When Moore thought about bringing BANDALOOP back to the Talley Student Union, she figured that they would be able to “help capture the spirit of this awesome building.” Even though BANDALOOP has been in planning for a long time, a number of preparations had to take place in order to make the group’s performance the best it could be. Andrew Korhonen, the operations and event coordinator of University Theatre, commented on the many changes that they had to make since BANDALOOP arrived. The black runway, which was installed earlier last week, has had its share of modifications.

In 2000, the College of Design began offering a Ph.D. in design and a Master of Art and Design in 2002. In 2010, an undergraduate major in design studies was also added. Malecha also oversaw a significant increase in private funding to the college, which now surpasses $2 million each year, and he also established the Designlife Board and the Leaders Council as a means of revamping the college’s alumni engagement efforts. Malecha served as the design architect for The Point, the new chancellor’s residence; he redesigned the chancellor’s ceremonial lavalier and was responsible for designing the university mace. “Transitioning into the NewSchool is giving me a chance in the fairly senior part of my career to go and do it all again,” Malecha said. “It is hard to turn down when you are a creative person.” The NewSchool, which is a part of the

Laureate network, is also offering Malecha the role of content curator for design thinking, a course Malecha co-teaches and created while at NC State. “When I was a student, there was a lot of discussion about design, but nobody ever took the time to work through what it meant to be a design thinker,” Malecha said. “That is what this course is about.” The Laureate network is composed of more than 80 campus-based and online universities, and becoming content curator will allow Malecha to turn his 175 student class into a worldwide agenda. At NC State, Malecha will participate in five final lectures before leaving his design thinking course solely in the hands of Tania Allen, an assistant professor of art and design. Allen said that Malecha’s legacy will live on in the class through the projects that he created for the course as well as through the aspirations of the students. “I can’t replicate what it is that he does, and I don’t want to because that would be disingenuous,” Allen said. “It is really hard for me to imagine him not being

around.” Allen believes that one of Malecha’s greatest values as a dean and a mentor relates to how he approaches education in the spirit of experimenting and trying new things. “If you have an idea that is genuinely focused on trying to make this college better, trying to get students to collaborate, trying to get them to think differently, trying to get them to open their mind in any number of ways — he always supports that,” Allen said. “He is so present, and I think that we take that for granted.” Allen hopes that the next dean will challenge the college in a similar way and encourage students and staff to get out of their comfort zones and seek different perspectives as Malecha has done. “I am leaving here with real emotions,” Malecha said on the verge of tears. “I do care about this place and the students, a lot. But, I joined the alumni club with a lifetime membership, so I am red and white for life”.

The runway was slated to be on the side of the third floor, but was moved to the fourth floor. BANDALOOP also had to change its routine. Due to the stair outcrop, only three members of the group could fit on the runway, instead of the intended four. “Nothing was really as planned, but it makes for a better show in the end,” Korhonen said. In addition to all of the stage preparations, BANDALOOP has held rehearsal sessions before and since their arrival at NC State. They rehearsed twice a week for five weeks before they got here, according to BANDALOOP’s founder, Amelia Rudolph. Moore said they started rehearsing in Stewart Theatre Sunday night and have been practicing

on sight every day since. A group of students was invited to an open rehearsal Tuesday, where they were allowed to sit in on a part of the process of getting ready for the show. Nathan Rackers, a freshman studying first-year engineering, was a part of the group. After the experience, Rackers noted they had a very interesting rehearsal process, which he had never seen before in a theater production. “They had so many minute details they had to work out in the way of timing and choreography,” Rackers said. “They had to go over certain parts over and over in order to get them perfect.” While tickets are nearly sold out for both of the shows in Stewart Theatre, BANDALOOP will also perform Saturday 75004 at 6:50 p.m. on the new Aloft Raleigh hotel on Hillsborough Street.

The fallacies of the additional funding argument W

ith Carmichael Gymnasium renovations upon us, I’d like to publicly critique the administration’s “additional Chris Becker f u nd i ng” a rg ument. It’s timeless Correspondent and goes something like this: 1) The (fill in the blank) at NC State is a great example of (something or other) utilized by the majority of students (omitting the fact that it’s usually by requirement or sheer monopolization) that is outdated with respect to our peer institutions and especially by its peers on campus. 2) We need to keep up with our peers. 3) And, we need to provide (fill in the blank’s) top quality services to our students (and general users). 4) Thus, we need (such and such) additional funding. Fill in the blanks with whatever you’d like and that same argument applies to anything on campus. The issue is figuring out where, when and if it goes wrong. What we’re looking for here is a way to figure out whether the premises are true or false. If any of them are false, then the argument is unsound and we can reject it. Let’s begin with the first premise. For our purposes, fill in the blanks with terms related to the Carmichael renovations. Once filled in, then it becomes a strictly empirical

Re. “Wolfpack remembers Joey Banks with Vigil” The article entitled “Wolfpack remembers Joey Banks with vigil” really had an impact to me. I was present at this vigil but couldn’t stand among the large group that had gathered in the Brickyard. I sat just a few yards away in the benches off from the group.

question that we’d do best to refer to the experts and our most reliable information to supply an answer. For the sake of being charitable, let’s say this one turns out true. Second premise: What non-circular reasoning explains why we need to keep pace with and imitate our peers? This is not an empirical question, and therefore it requires some further argumentation. However, the problem is that most of the counter-arguments are the ones we heard when we asked too many questions to our parents: ‘Just because.’ Now, granted, there are alternative responses, but we need to be wary of circular responses. What does that mean? Any response whose conclusion brings us back to the first premise, for example: 1) If we don’t keep up with our peers then we’ll fall behind in our rankings. 2) And, if we fall behind in our rankings then we get less support. 3) And, if we get less support then we can’t keep up with our peers. Usually administrators stop at premise two. But, we would be right to ask them why that matters as a substantial conclusion, and so we should push for premise three, the real conclusion. However convincing this argument sounds, there’s a lot wrong with it (besides the fact that it’s circular). But, I won’t go into that here

CAMPUS FORUM

Jacob was an amazing human, one of the few left, and he was taken all of a sudden. He died at 16 from an aneurysm. I played football with this student and even borrowed his shoes to lift weights with for football. Of course he let me use them while he lifted in boots. After me and him finished our session in the weight room and went to part ways I realized I still had his shoes, but it was too late he was already off to get home to grub up. He died the next day at an FFA meeting.

besides pointing to the doubtfulness of the second premise and asking the typical paternalistic question: Is the fact that everyone else around you is doing something a good reason for you to do it too? All well and good, but let’s suppose — again, in being charitable (and really wanting to argue) — that the second premise of our main argument turns out true too. On to the third premise. What are the “top quality services” that students need at an institution of higher education? The phrasing inside the quotation marks can be changed to whatever synonymous, less corporatized wording one wants, but the question still remains. This is a non-empirical question that we often are told to accept as “actually” empirical because we can measure what our peers are doing and at the end of the day (like premise two preaches) we just have to keep up with them. However, to answer a non-empirical question we have to, again, give some further argument, this time based on the purposes and aims of higher education. Admittedly, this is where it gets tricky, but this is also where we should be focusing our effort because this is the premise that we’re almost explicitly told as students never to think about, especially not critically (i.e. via criticism). So, I leave these questions with the reader: what is the purpose of higher

education and what are its aims? Once you got that one figured out, what then are the necessary tools, spaces and experiences you need to achieve those aims and realize that purpose? Still, there’s surely a way to answer those questions that makes the third premise turn out true as well, and so we’ll assume just that. We’ve arrived then at the conclusion with all previous premises answered to our satisfaction and assumed to be true. That is to say that our argument is now sound! However, we’re not quite done. Our question now should be whether the conclusion is validly entailed by the premises. That is, can we say it satisfies some argumentative form with a weird Latin name like modus ponens? As I laid out the argument, which it turns out isn’t very charitable even though this is what most people actually say—it doesn’t make logical sense. So, let’s add some final bits and pieces to help them out. Specifically, let’s add some more premises that say: 1) The current student fee is $X per year, and $Y of that goes to (fill in the blank – in our case, Carmichael). 2) The proposed changes to (fill in the blank) are $Z per year, and it turns out that Z is bigger than Y by some amount, N. 3) So, to pay for the changes and for reasons already mentioned (see

premises 1-3 in main argument), we need to increase the student fee by $N per year, thus making it $(X + N) annually. Premises one and two are empirical, and the way I wrote the conclusion isn’t explicitly entailed, but this is a newspaper, so let’s all pretend it is because it’s close enough, right? Almost. But, the important point here is that combining premise one and two does not entail, no matter what reasons you give, that the increase needs to occur in our student fees. It just entails that, to pay for the changes, there needs to be funding in the amount of $Z, period. So what’s the takeaway? Lots, hopefully, but here’s all I want to say personally: We were very charitable (maybe too much) throughout our analysis. There’s a bunch to be disputed, but even if we give the benefit of the doubt to whoever answers these questions in a way that makes the premises true, we should reject at all costs the conclusion that the student fee is what needs to be increased. No doubt, it feasibly can be increased, but it needn’t and shouldn’t. My suggestion? If we want it, whoever “we” is and whatever “it” is, then we have to find a way to pay for it that doesn’t continue problematic trends at NC State and, in general, throughout higher education.

He was loved and just snatched away. I just wanted to share this with someone and just being a part of the Wolfpack now, I was very proud to be here to see the support that Joey received. I know Jacob welcomed Joey home, and both of them are having a good laugh about this. Go Pack! Alston Willard sophomore, exploratory studies

Budget cuts are driving us crazy I

f you’re the kind of person who gets his or her rocks off watching conservative Bryan politicians in the United States roll Maxwell up their sleeves, Correspondent duke it out and, in general, come to an agreement on nothing, you may be getting your fill in this year. Sure they can come to a consensus on a few things, like a fear of regulating fossil fuels or the free market to reign in global warming (although maybe we could heat our homes with their fiery hatred of Obama and gay marriage). But, generally it feels like a shouting match where no one is sure what just happened. If you’re looking for unproductive arguing among sparring adults in charge of a government with a little more local flavor, though, you could just pop on down to the NC General Assembly. Boy howdy. The Republican-dominated Gen-

eral Assembly has been facing criticism for a range of reasons including voting rights and environmental oversight. Going into the 11th week of our new fiscal year, the disagreeing body has just finally managed to pass a budget for the upcoming year, making a few people a little angry. Although to be fair, the General Assembly rarely passes a budget on time, even if it is extra late this year. That tardiness was costing the state an extra $42,000 a day. Up until this last week, the widely used Driver’s Education program for NC was on the budget’s chopping block. Some of you may be thinking, “Whoa, wait. I used that.” And you probably did. Raise your hand if you took advantage of the low cost Driver’s Ed offered in NC high schools. It’s okay, do it. You’ll be able to spot others who have. Strength in numbers. More than 10,000 students use it every year. It’s a sensible thing to spend money on a program to train

in either direction, what should your speed be?” I might actually crash my car just trying to riddle that one out on the road. Secondly, one stat doesn’t give a full picture. What about some other facts like, say, the number of driver fatalities during the last decade, specifically in the age range of kids who have recently taken Driver’s Ed. What? The same report says that auto deaths in that range have been declining for years, despite more cars on the road and more texty-drivers? If you don’t understand, then you may be a rational person. Unfortunately, conservatives tend to look at budgets like a butcher eyes a carcass: How do we cut more meat off these bones? Just because we spend tax money on something doesn’t mean it’s sinister. Sometimes you have to spend money to avoid bigger costs later (like lives of underprepared drivers). Does the Driver’s Ed program need to

kids who are going to be driving speeding death missiles soon. A no brainer, right? The powers that be didn’t seem to think so. They claim the program is inefficient (probably so), disorganized (it was getting better), and there is no evidence supporting that the program is effective (although it’s hard to point to people who aren’t dead thanks to actually having Driver’s Ed). The General Assembly points to a report earlier this year supporting these claims. One of the arguments of the report was that more than 46 percent of students failed the knowledge portion of the test. Geez, that does sound pretty bad. Wait, no! This isn’t one of those political tricks where you point to one misleading statistic to confirm an argument, is it? First of all, the DMV knowledge portion of the test isn’t easy.

be restructured and streamlined? Yes. Does that mean it should be eliminated? It’s kind of like having an old Saab convertible that drives great, but the roof leaks, and the trunk won’t close unless you sit on it. When something’s wrong with your car, you don’t get rid of it. You try and fix it because people use cars to get where they need to go, and we’d like them to be able to do it safely. That’s the reality. Wait, what were we trying to defund again? Luckily, the General Assembly passed the budget earlier this week and decided to keep Driver’s Ed, for now. They were likely responding to the huge backlash among parents, concerned drivers and even the NC insurance industry (that’s the free market speaking for you). Unfortunately, the General Assembly did give a big predictable thumbs-down to our state’s renewable energy tax credits, but that’s a whole other story.

Unbeaten Pack football heads to Old Dominion Drew Nantais Assistant Sports Editor

The NC State football team heads north to Norfolk, Virginia after trouncing Eastern Kentucky Saturday for its first road test of the season against Old Dominion. The Pack (2-0, 0-0 ACC) and Monarchs (20, 0-0 C-USA) have started their respective seasons off on the right foot. The Wolfpack defeated Troy and Eastern Kentucky by a combined score of 84-21, while the Monarchs squeaked by Eastern Michigan and Norfolk State. The trip to Norfolk marks the beginning of a grueling series of road games for the Wolfpack. “We’re coming up on a stretch where six of the next eight games are on the road,” NC State head coach Dave Doeren said. Old Dominion last met the Wolfpack in a September showdown at Carter-Finley Stadium in Raleigh last season. The Monarchs played well in the first half but were outscored 28-13 in the second half, eventually falling to the Pack 46-34. Freshman Shuler Bentley takes over at quarterback for the Monarchs after last year’s starter, Taylor Heinicke. The 6-foot-1 Bentley has completed 30 of his 54 throws this season for 306 yards, one touchdown and one pick. The true star of Old Dominion’s offense lies in sophomore running back Ray Lawry. Currently leading the NCAA in rushing at 438 yards, Lawry is a force to be reckoned with. The 5-foot-10 sophomore carried the ball 28 times against Eastern Michigan, accumulating 223 yards and four touchdowns. He followed that line with a two-touchdown, 215-yard performance against Norfolk State. Lawry bore a heavy workload against the Spartans, carrying the ball 31 times overall. NC State defensive coordinator Dave Huxtable and his defense will have their hands

full trying to contain the Monarch’s explosive running back. The Wolfpack receive some more offensive muscle this week as senior running back Shadrach Thornton returns to the team after serving a two-game suspension. “[Thornton’s] the best he’s been since I’ve been here,” Doeren said. “I’m excited he gets to play, and he’s been through a lot that he’s brought on himself, and he’s learned from it.” Thornton joins junior running back Matt Dayes and sophomore full back Jaylen Samuels to help form a three-headed rushing monster in the backfield for the Pack.

“We feel like we have some good weapons that we can move around and be versatile with,” Doeren said. Senior quarterback Jacoby Brissett looks to continue his stellar play this season. His 84.4 completion percentage is tops in the NCAA, and his 183.4 passer rating has him 12th-best amongst starting quarterbacks in Division I-A. Doeren emphasized offensive execution not only by Brissett, but by the whole team. “Whether it’s a simple run, or a three-step, or a screen, or a deep ball, they all have to be executed,” Doeren said. “We control how

much they do by how we play. We just have to do a good job of controlling every situation we can.” After Saturday’s contest in Norfolk, the Pack travels south to Mobile, Alabama for its last non-conference game of the season against the South Alabama Jaguars. The Pack begins ACC play on Oct. 3 against the Louisville Cardinals at Carter-Finley Stadium. “Our preparation and focus is key,” Doeren said. “Being a good road team, that’s what it’s about, focusing on us and what we can control.”
