A student raises his fist in celebration after answering a question correctly. The event was co-hosted by the LGBT* Center and UNI Veterans Association.

Two seemingly unlikely groups came together on Monday Sept. 28. The LGBT* Center and UNI Veterans Association teemed up to host a jeopardy-style trivia night, complete with giftcards. Though the two groups may seem like an unusual combination to some, Emily Harsh, head of the LGBT* Center and graduate assistant for the Dean of Students, said that their idea was to reach out to all student groups. The categories for the questions included: TV, music, 2000s, sports, UNI and strange facts. Freshman human resources and supply chain management major, Katie Donelan, was quick to express her disdain towards the tricky questions. “Our group was really on the struggle bus,” Donelan said. “We ended up with about 1,200 points.” See TRIVIA, page 4

Coming off of a weekend of two consecutive wins at home, the Panther volleyball team took another victory this week in Peoria, IL. Competing Tuesday, Sept. 29 against Bradley, UNI defeated the Braves in a threematch shutout with set scores 25-20, 25-18 and 25-19. Tied up in the first set at scores 5, 8 and 9, UNI began to break away from the Braves with multiple kills from junior

Lindsey Schulz and freshman Bri Weber. Finishing out the set was a kill from junior Jaidyn Blanchfield for a 25-20 victory. Starting back in the second set, the Panthers turned the tides early on with back-toback kills from Schulz, tying up the set, 9-9. From there, the teams battled neck-andneck until UNI broke away. A service ace by junior Kayla Haneline and multiple errors by Bradley ended the second set, 25-18. See VOLLEYBALL, page 6
