French minor could return UNI charity group praises participants to UNI CASSANDRA TANT Academics Writer

In 2012, UNI closed its French program amidt a wide-range of budgetary cuts. Now, the new academic minor, Interdisciplinary Language Studies Minor: French is awaiting approval by the University of Northern Iowa Faculty Senate and the Iowa Board of Regents. “All of the signals are very encouraging and we are very pleased with how it’s progressing,” said Julie Husband, head of the Department of Languages and Literatures. Husband has been working closely with associate professors Flavia Vernescu and Elizabeth Zwanziger to design and develop this new minor. “The number of hours will be the same, 21 hours, of which three to six could be taken in courses outside of the French program itself,” said Vernescu. She went on to say that electives could be chosen from listed courses from a variety of departments: art, geography, history, music and philosophy. “Our idea is that there are some natural combinations,” Husband said. “I want to emphasize that it compliments so many other majors really well.” The department has advertised the new minor on their website and they have been working to recruit students. Both professors said they have already experienced high interest from students. “Two days ago I got a call,” Vernescu said. “This lady told me that she’s calling on behalf of a relative of hers, who is finishing high school this May and will come to UNI only if she knew that there would be some French program … she was very excited.” See FRENCH, page 2

Students eat brunch at the Piazza dining center. The dining centers are open until 9:45 a.m. or breakfast now.

In response to a fall customer satisfaction survey and an interesting predicament, the UNI Department of Residence is extending breakfast by 15 minutes until 9:45 a.m. “We had a couple of students who had come to us because of a bad situation,” said Carol Fletcher, associate director of residential dining.

“They were sneaking into the dining room ... during our break times, so I had visited with the students and (they) told me what is going on and I’m like that’s the stuff we need to know.” The extended time, which started at the beginning of the semester, has given 75-100 students per work week time to come in and eat.

Vernescu said the process to pass this minor has been easy thus far. “We had a very receptive department,” Ver nescu said. “The third step was submitting this proposal to the University Curricular Committee and I happen to serve on the committee, so I was there to see that it was looked at with open eyes and it was a much welcomed program.” Zwanziger said

the creation of this minor coincides with the v i s i o n statement Elizabeth Zwanziger of UNI to “celebrate pluralism, multiculturalism.” “The idea of having multiple l a n g u ag e s available, again, on campus is very important and it aligns with the UNI vision,” Zwanziger said. Plans for a new major, Humanities: Fr e n c h ,

are already in motion, according to Husband. The major would allow students to study at UNI for two years and then at the Université de Franche Comté in France for two years. Students would earn two degree simultaneously: an American bachelor’s degree and a French licence. “We’re really happy and enthusiastic about this,” Vernescu said. “By the end of the semester we should have a definite answer.”

at 11 a.m. instead of 11:15 a.m. However, he said that is a change that couldn’t occur right now. “Now doing something like that, that would cost (us more) because we’d need to get students in here,” Weiglein said. “We’d have to redo some full time schedules just to make that production work.” Though the idea will not happen in the near future, F letcher said it does not mean they will stop listening to students. She said there is a “potential developing” idea to create

a food venue offering vegan and vegetarian meal choices. That does not mean they will take the vegetarian and vegan cuisine out of the dining centers, but it could be a new location for students.

RESEARCH

Proposed center to study various university issues CORREY PRIGEON

Associate Executive Editor

With universities facing issues such as falling enrollment and funding cuts, solutions may seem few and far between. However, a group of University of Northern Iowa staff members recently presented plans for a proposed Center for the Study of Undergraduate Education to Faculty Senate. “We just saw opportunities to bring people together to talk about issues relevant to

UNI and other universities,” said Kristin Woods, group member and assistant dean of students. “We thought a center model could aid us in our discussion and research.” The group is under the direction of Steven Carignan, associate dean of the College of Humanities, Arts and Sciences. It was formed around a common interest in studying student experiences and tailoring policies to help students at comprehensive universities. While the center hasn’t

been approved yet, the group has already begun a research project. It is currently studying the decision-making process of students who transfer from community colleges to universities. If the center is approved, future ideas for research and studies will come from an advisory committee, formed by the group, that consists of UNI faculty and staff. The committee would propose issues that can be investigated on campus. The group is also planning to keep in touch with

President William Ruud and UNI’s administration to deal with relevant and pressing Steve Carignan issues. “There are things ranging from looking at topics like enrollment, services for students, faculty satisfaction,” said group member Kristi Marchesani, assistant director of admissions and international relations. “There are

so many directions that we could go in that it’s a matter of narrowing it down Kristin Woods and figuring out what’s the best use of our time.” Currently, the group does not have a space of its own, but if the group’s future work requires a physical space, Woods said it would become a priority.

Censure decision will be made in June JORDAN AUNE

News Editor

University of Northern Iowa President Wlliam Ruud has been in office for less than a full year, yet he might have to face a difficult situation this summer due to circumstances that he had no

control over. UNI is facing a possible censure from the American Association of University Professors. Their decision on the case is expected to come during the annual AAUP meeting in June. According to the AAUP website, a censure “results

from the Association’s findings that conditions for academic freedom and tenure are unsatisfactory at a college or university.” The case against UNI stems from the university’s decision to terminate dozens of majors, minors and graduate programs in 2012 while Benjamin Allen

was still president. At their meeting last June, the AAUP decided to delay any censure action until 2014. The move was commended by Ruud, who assumed duties as president on June 1 of 2013. If UNI is censured, AAUP could decide to remove it

from the censure list next summer at the earliest. The removal of a censure is “a sign of an institution’s academic health and of the continuing vitality of the principles and standards to which it has committed itself,” according to the AAUP website.

Parents, educators are rethinking role of AP LIZ BOWIE

MCT/The Baltimore Sun

If there is one thing Katie Boltz has mastered in high school, it is how to use every minute of her day efficiently. With five Advanced Placement classes, the Dulaney High School senior doesn't text her friends or watch TV so she can focus on homework _ but still only manages three or four hours of sleep some nights. "Originally, I thought I would really like all of these classes," the 17-year-old said, adding that when she is overwhelmed, she questions the decision to take so many demanding classes at one time. "It is definitely a lot." Boltz is one of a growing number of students in Maryland and throughout the nation juggling a full plate of college-level classes in high school. In the past decade, the number of students nationwide who take more than three AP exams a year has doubled, to about 175,000. Designed a half-century ago to give a few thousand elite students a chance to skip introductory college classes, Advanced Placement is now the required

portal to college for any ambitious teen. But its widespread acceptance as a national gold standard has altered the nature of high school for students like Boltz, some critics say. They see an education system that rewards top students who take 10 to 12 AP classes during their high school careers _ the equivalent of more than a year of college _ but narrows the choice of classes they can take and creates undue stress. The system is driven partly, they say, by colleges that use Advanced Placement _ the number of classes taken and exam scores earned _ to rank applicants, and by savvy local school administrators who want to boost a school's national rankings. School districts routinely point to those rankings, giving principals an incentive to get more students to take the classes. Now some parents, educators and even university admissions officers are rethinking the role of AP classes. The admissions office for the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill is advising applicants that there is no benefit from taking more than five AP

classes in high school. And a New York public high school has dumped the program in favor of what it sees as a better college preparatory curriculum. "The relentless marketing effort by many principals to place a greater number of kids into a greater number of AP classes _ all in a single semester, as early in a student's career as possible _ is backfiring," said Mary Ellen Pease, a co-founder of Advocates for Better Course Choices in Baltimore County, Md., Public Schools and the parent of two recent county graduates. Such protests represent a minority voice, and educators and parents say they have little influence over such a national juggernaut. Most education leaders across the nation have embraced the expansion of AP, seeing it as a way to raise achievement and provide educational equity to students in poorly performing schools. But its ever-expanding use has meant that high-achieving students are loaded with the courses while some unprepared students at low-performing schools flounder and fail. A Baltimore Sun investigation last year showed that many

students are given high grades in the AP classes but then fail the exams. But AP teachers say having a tough national exam that only 60 percent of test takers pass has pushed students and schools to a higher level of achievement. And Boltz and her fellow students say they are glad to have taken challenging classes that prepare them for AP exams. Trevor Packer, who leads the AP program for the nonprofit College Board _ with members that include more than 6,000 colleges, universities, school

districts and education organizations _ has concerns about students who take too many AP classes but doesn't think it's a widespread problem. "I don't love the idea of students taking AP just so they can stand out in college admissions," he said. "I want students to take AP because they want to learn at a higher level and they are passionate about that subject. There is some harm happening there that we all want to acknowledge. ... I just don't think the data support that as a national concern right now."

Over the past century, gender equality has progressed monumentally: women have won the right to vote, the right to legal contraceptives and sex discrimination is unlawful. However, there is still a mountain of progress to be made. Men need to step up and take an active role in feminist issues. Unfortunately, our society refuses to value all genders equally. It is evident in the gender pay gap. It is evident in the routine objectification of women in the media. It is evident in the double standard of patting sexually active men on the back while simultaneously labeling women as slutty. It is evident in the daily pervasive domestic abuse and sexual assault in the U.S. One in six American women are

survivors of rape, according to the Rape Abuse and Incest National Network. We need to move forward from the negative stigma surrounding feminism because feminist issues directly affect everyone. Nobody would want to see his or her mother harassed on the street, shamed for her appearance or assaulted and then blamed for it. If these aren’t things we would want for our mothers, we should endeavor to make them things no woman is subjected to, not only because of women’s relationship to men, but because women are people. One way to fight social injustices imposed on women is to change how we see masculinity. The antiquated gender roles imposed by our patriarchal society create a narrow, toxic box of “manliness” in which men are expected to reside. For further discussion of the man box, look up Tony Porter’s TED Talk “A Call to Men.” Patriarchal gender roles

Our socialization teaches us to believe that men bottle their emotions and must remain stoic, which is hardly practical. What kind of robot wouldn’t cry during “Marley and Me?” It should be noted that female feminists are responsible for many of the changes that have happened over time. Male feminists need to remember that they are women’s allies and allies can’t define their own role. However, because of the unfortunate patriarchy in our society, the words of men may be more influential in certain situations. Sometimes men, boys and even women who may internalize sexism might be more open to the words of a man. If you want to combat and mitigate everyday sexism, you can start today. Tell your friends it makes you uncomfortable when they use sexist language or

Debunking reverse racism as America’s hurtful myth CHRISTOPHER DANIEL daniecab @uni.edu

Each semester, composition teachers see the same theses on their students’ topic papers: marijuana legalization, the media’s effect on body image and, increasingly, “reverse racism.” Reverse racism means that nonwhite people practice racism against white people. Per Michael Norton and Samuel Sommers’s study “Whites See Racism as a Zero-Sum Game That They Are Now Losing,” white Americans have perceived increased bias against themselves, rising from 1.87 percent in the 1950s to 4.7 percent in the 2000s, a figure holding across age and education. The study concluded that white Americans perceive others’ gains in equality as a proportional loss in white equality. The respondents believe they are now the group most discriminated against and are unfairly burdened with “white guilt.” The problem with the term reverse racism is that it assumes that something propagated by white people is now being turned against them. Implicit in this assumption is that racism is the exclusive domain of white people. Those who bandy this term imply that racism is their privilege. Decrying reverse racism is a new way for white people to say that the “coloreds” are ungrateful for the favors and rights granted to them. Don’t they know white people set them free? The above formulation is not entirely untrue. The racism white Americans imagine is reflected at them is their own racism. Differentiate bigotry from racism. Bigotry is an irrational hatred of others due to perceived bio-

logical, religious or cultural differences. It exists amongst everyone. Racism is more encompassing. It is an ideology upon which an entire social group founds its beliefs about others. Racism is always particular to the culture and ideology to which it belongs. It is not exclusive to white cultures. But here we are talking about American racism, an ideology founded on white supremacy, whose roots lie in the early settlers’ belief that indigenous people must be exterminated if they aren’t useful. I claimed that the paradox of the term reverse racism is that white people claim racism as their own special privilege. In fact, it is. Those who were oppressed largely waged fights for equal rights. The advancement of nonwhite citizens within American society, and the freedom they feel to openly discuss ethnic and economic privilege in this country, is seen as an attack. Didn’t we give them their rights? Isn’t everything fair now? Why don’t they settle down and be happy? Now we’re hurt, and in our childish hurt, we fall back on the grade school accusation of “they do it, too!” I suggest to our students that this reverse racism is a weak thesis topic, and to my fellow white Americans, that this is a weak and ignoble response to a complex social history.

BSU kicks off Black History Month with Disco Skate RACHEL BALDUS

Associate Campus Life Editor

Lights flashed over the basketball courtturned-skating rink and ’70s music filled the air as students of all ages lined up to dig skates out of boxes and participate in the Black Student Union’s Disco Skate in the Wellness Recreation Center on Friday. “It’s a celebration of Black History Month,” said BSU member Zach Owens. “We’re trying to coincide it with the disco theme somehow. Our culture, in a way, made a way for the disco.” This is the third year BSU has put on Disco Skate. Owens said the event has been a success each year. Jeff Hinton, sophomore accounting and management information systems double major, said he went to the event last year. “I played hockey when I was younger, and so I learned how to skate there,” Hinton said. “Then it was just like, ‘Oh, Disco Skate! Let’s go skating!’ because there’s not really any roller rink close by, that I know about anyways, besides the ice skating place,” he said. Tomi Fullick, sophomore TESOL/Spanish major, attended Disco Skate for the first time this year, but she was not new to skating. She said she began skating back in elementary school. “There’s a roller skating rink in my home town where we all used to have birthday parties at,” Fullick said. But despite their experience, both Fullick and Hinton admitted to falling at some point during the event. “I feel like if you don’t fall, then you’re not trying hard enough,” Hinton said. “That’s the best part. I haven’t skated in a while, so you’ve got to get your bearings. Also, I was trying to skate backwards and forwards, and so sometimes if I was trying to do a little

spin thing or something, I’ll biff it, and it’s like, ‘Oh, whatever.’” The night included a costume contest, and the crowd chose the winner by loudly cheering and clapping for whoever they wanted to win. The disco and ‘70s-themed dress of the six contestants ranged from Afros to sequined skirts. Being able to be with his friends and dress up in disco wear was Hinton’s favorite part of the event. “I thought it was just a good time,” he said.

The HuB has provided Cedar Falls with live music for the past seven years, but the steady stream of sound will soon be silenced. The venue will officially close it doors mid-May 2014. “Closing The HuB is a little bittersweet,” said owner Marcus Kjeldsen. “I’ve been in the bar and music business for 15 years.” He said that has meant a lot of time spent away from his family, which is the reason he decided to close the venue. “I am married and have three young children,” Kjeldsen said. “I have wanted

to spend more time at home for a few years now and finally made the decision to make it happen.” Over the years, The HuB has brought a variety of local live music to the area. From hip hop shows to cover bands and rock music, The HuB has featured many different styles. The venue typically has live music five nights a week, and Kjeldsen said that some of the best shows he has seen are “when an incredible unknown band plays to just a handful of people.” There are no set future plans for the space currently occupied by The HuB. However, no matter what goes into the space, Kjeldsen

said he is sure the live music scene will survive. “Live music has a unique way of sustaining itself,” Kjeldsen said. “Passion for music is an odd thing. ... It’s not something that you can fake. If people support it, the live music scene will be just fine.” Ana Hanisch, senior communications major, has worked at The HuB since its opening in February 2007. She is now in charge of management and bar operations. “It’s been a good run,” Hanisch said. “Everybody could enjoy the music here. I hope that there can be a new beginning for this place.” See HUB, page 7

There’s an awkward moment in every relationship caused by one question: where is this going? In the new release “That Awkward Moment,” Jason (Zac Efron), Daniel (Miles Teller) and Mikey (Michael B. Jordan) take an oath to stay single and enjoy each other’s company after Mikey discovers his wife wants a divorce. There’s an excellent volley of conversation that keeps the film lively and directs it in the opposite direction of the traditional sappy romantic movie. And there is comedy a plenty in the short 94-minute film. People can relate to this movie rather well, especially when Jason basically Facebook stalks Ellie (Imogen Poots) after their relationship falters. There’s also Mikey and Vera’s (Jessica Lucas) struggle to rekindle their relationship before following through

with the divorce. Another thing that struck me was the occupations and the setting. Jason designs book covers. He even draws Ellie a comic strip depicting an apology. Ellie is an author who strings together a lecture series. Of course, like most movies, the setting is New York City, but it is a different side of the city. It isn’t Times Square or the Statue of Liberty or Chinatown. No, this movie is set in an area that feels more residential and undiscovered. But the main message of the movie is summed up when Ellie says, “Being there for someone when they need you, that’s all relationships are.” These relationships don’t have to be romantic; you’re there for your family and you have your friends’ backs. When someone can put their trust in you and rely on you, you build and strengthen your relationship. That’s all relationships are.

“stand for why you dance” event in Maucker Union. Thirty people stood up and explained why they chose to dance. Now, with less than a month to go until the big event held March 1, where hundreds of participants will converge in the Union to dance from noon to midnight, Dance Marathon is still trying to raise money. This is the third year for UNI Dance Marathon. The event raised over $150,000 the last two years, and committee members anticipate an even bigger Dance

Marathon this year. Close to 900 students participated last year, and so far 600 are registered for this year. Their goal for this year is to raise $125,000. “After seeing the cause Dance Marathon was working towards and seeing the families directly affected, I fell in love with the organization,” said Cheyene Robertson, sophomore biology major. “UNI students should join the cause because this is such a simple way to help save lives all over and to make a difference for children and families.”

Kjeldsen said the hardest part of his decision was thinking about all the people that have made The HuB a success. “The most difficult part … was being concerned for the Hub’s incredible staff, the musicians that play there on a regular basis and the people that support the shows,”

Kjeldsen said. “I made the announcement now because I wanted to make sure that everyone involved had time to make future plans.” He said he will host as many shows as he can until the venue closes. “I hope you have all enjoyed the wild ride and will stop in to see some of your favorite bands perform the final shows at The HuB,” Kjeldsen said.

MEN’S BASKETBALL

Panthers split pair of home games COLE BAIR

Sports Writer

Despite record-breaking shooting from Evansville’s D.J. Balentine, the University of Northern Iowa men’s basketball team defeated the Purple Aces (10-13, 3-7) 95-81 Wednesday night. The sophomore guard drained 19 of 21 free throws, hitting the McLeod Center record for attempted and made free throws by a single player. He also scored an Evansvilleschool record 43 points against the Panthers. The McLeod Center record is 43 points as well for any single player, and it was the fourth and final record the sophomore phenom reached that evening. The Panthers converted on a team record 17 3-pointers in the blowout win. Deon Mitchell, Seth Tuttle and Matt Bohannon capitalized on the scorching-fast tempo. Mitchell and his improved jumper hit four 3-pointers on the way to a 20 point, six assist, six rebound performance. Missouri Valley Conference Player of the Year candidate Seth Tuttle scored 20 points and grabbed six rebounds. UNI guard Matt Bohannon, who scored 19 points in the win, said the key to their suc-

cess has been beating the competition down the court and looking for openings. “When we don’t beat them in transition, we’re doing a really good job in our half court,” Bohannon said. “Making other guys help, I thought that was a big thing tonight.” Although the Panthers scored a big win, UNI head coach Ben Jacobson thought improvements could be made before Indiana State University came to the McLeod Center just three days later. “It’s simple. We just got to get better defensively,” Jacobson said. “There’s a lot that goes into it, but bottom line is, we have to figure out how we’re going to stop people.” Saturday night, the MVC’s second-place team, ISU, invaded the McLeod Center. The Panthers dictated the tempo in the first half and the result was 17-28 shooting from the field as a team. Once again this season, the second half was a different story. Sycamores head coach Greg Lansing said he got mad at his team during the intermission and they responded with a 14-1 run to open the second half. UNI failed to get the lead back but they didn’t go away

quietly. With 1 minute, 52 seconds remaining, Wes Washpun led the Panthers in a 15-5 run that whittled the Sycamores’ lead down to just 2 points with 30 seconds remaining, but the Sycamores hit free throws down stretch to hold on to a

87-81 victory. “We pressed a little bit against Evansville in the first half, so we may throw it in from time to time, but it won’t be like it was that last two minutes (of the game) where it’s hectic like that,” Jacobson

said. “The teams we’re playing are good enough that they’ll get through it.” UNI looks to get back on track Wednesday night at 7 p.m. in Normal, Ill., where they will face Dan Muller and the Illinois State Redbirds.

UNI off to best start to season in 45 years

The University of Northern Iowa wrestling team defeated Ohio University 25-15 and followed that with a 29-12 victory over South Dakota State University Saturday. The

victories extended their dual meet record to 7-0, the best start to a season in 45 years for the Panthers. UNI head coach Doug Schwab was far from impressed, however. “Not taking away from Ohio or South Dakota State, but we were not very sharp

today,” Schwab said. “We did what we needed to do but we need to do better.” Ryan Loder got the Panthers off to a quick start in both meets, defeating his opponents by technical fall. Loder defeated Ryan Garringer of Ohio15-0 and then Brady Ayers of SDSU 17-2. Joe Colon, who is currently ranked fifth in the nation in technical falls, added two more Saturday, increasing his total to eight on the season. Colon faced little competition as he defeated Kagan Squire of Ohio 22-5 and Brance Simms of SDSU 18-3. Joey Lazor provided the most excitement of the day in his match against Noah Forrider of Ohio. Lazor, who was down 6-4 in the last 30 seconds, used a takedown to force overtime and followed that with another takedown to win the match. Lazor followed his thrilling victory by shutting out Eric Orozco of SDSU, 9-0.

We were not very sharp today. We did what we needed to do but we need to do better. Doug Schwab

UNI head coach

“Lazor is fighting to get back into shape after his injury, and he’s still finding ways to get it done,” Schwab said. Dylan Peters pinned both of his opponents on the day, increasing his total to 15 on the season, which put him in the top 10 in UNI history books. First, he took down Ohio’s KeVon Powell in just 1 minute, 20 seconds. Next, he defeated SDSU’s Ben Gillette in 2:24. “Peters is a pinner and a winner,” Schwab said. “His opponents know what is coming and they still can’t stop him, and he’s right up there with anyone in the

country.” Cooper Moore proved why he should be considered one of the best wrestlers in the Mid-American Conference at 165 pounds. Moore made quick work of Ohio’s Harrison Hightower, winning by pin in 3:36. In his second match, Moore won in a decision over Joe Brewster of SDSU, 6-1. Schwab said he was happy with the victories, but his team needs to improve top to bottom of the lineup if they want to compete for titles at the end of the season. “Our performance this season has been good, but we can still take it up a few notches,” Schwab said. “We are nowhere near where we can be by the end of the season.” Next, the Panthers will host Iowa State University at 5 p.m. Feb. 8, and will follow that up with Kent State University at 1 p.m. Feb. 9. Both meets will be held in the West Gym.
