The Panthers’ first game in this season’s playoffs featured a home game against Monmouth College. Prior to their 46-7 victory over the Fighting Scots, the Panthers possessed a three game win streak against Indiana State,

Missouri State and South Dakota. The Panthers scored early in the first quarter with touchdowns from quarterback Eli Dunne. UNI increased their lead to 46-0 before they were finally scored on late into the fourth quarter. A highlight of this first quarter was a one-hand-

ed catch by linebacker Jared Farley. Farley is known for his top-notch defensive performances but found himself on the other side of the ball last weekend, earning himself a touchdown on his only target of the game. This turned into a game of turnovers. Dunne did not get picked off once, dominat-

Gray said that second-year students will be permitted to live in Panther Village. This was made possible as “a result of the newly modernized and recently reopened Lawther Hall,” according to Gray. In addition to sophomores being able to live there, PV will also provide all-gender housing along with other residence halls on campus. Allgender housing allows students living on campus to room with whomever they choose, despite the gender identity or legal sex of the other person. All-gender housing will be available in Lawther Hall, which offers suites with both private and semi-private bathrooms, as well as PV, ROTH

Apartments and Jennings Apartments, which all offer apartment-style living with private bathrooms and bedrooms in each unit, according to Gray. Gray has no serious concerns for the integration of all-gender housing into more residence halls. “UNI has been providing open-gender housing for a couple of years now,” Gray said. “To date we have not experienced any problems.” According to UNI’s residence hall page on the UNI website, any student living on campus is eligible for all-inclusive housing. However, the student must opt-into the all-gender housing within the housing and dining contract online.

ing through the air with four touchdowns. Daurice Fountain has easily been Dunne’s most popular target this season, and last week was no difference. Dunne connected with Fountain 10 times for 139 yards and two touchdowns. The Panther run game was also strong against Monmouth. Senior running

back J’Veyon Browning carried the ball 14 times for 136 yards but failed to find the end zone. Marcus Weymiller still led the carry count last weekend, netting 74 yards on 17 carries. The Panther offense put up a season-high 249 yards on the ground.

Changes coming soon to campus living AMELIA DUAX Staff Writer

For students living on campus, the on-campus residence halls may start to look a little different next year thanks to some changes being implemented by the Department of Residence (DOR). Starting in the fall of 2018, second-year students will be able to live in Panther Village (PV). This is in addition to expanding all-gender housing and an increase in the cost of some residence halls. Glenn Gray, assistant vice president and executive director of residence, was able to give more information on the changes that students can expect to see next academic year.

Next school year, the Department of Residence will implement changes to the residence halls.

“All-gender housing is also available within the traditional halls,” Gray said. “But the bathrooms within these com-

munities remain gendered as male and female.”  See DOR CHANGES, page 2
