UNI Ties record
Blackout leads to 11 consecutive win BRANDON TJEPKES Sports Writer
UNI men’s basketball tied the school record of 11 MVC consecutive victories Saturday night as they defeated Drake 69-53. Even though Drake put up the first points, UNI’s accurate shooting made it a long night for the Bulldogs. The Panthers gained very early momentum dropping 4 of its
first 5 three pointers. UNI finished the game shooting for 64 percent total shots and 55 percent behind the arc. While Seth Tuttle led the game in scoring with 16 points, the breakout player of the night was Matt Bohannon. Bohannon shot perfect on the court going 5-5 as well as 4-4 behind the three-point arc. “When opportunities come for him [Bohannon]
and Paul [Jesperson] tonight, they were drilling them,” Coach Jacobson said after the game. “They put in a lot of time.” UNI tied the season high for three pointers in a game with 11. Bohannon and Jesperson led in threes with 4 each while Tuttle, Wyatt Lohaus, and Nate Buss all contributed with one each. See BASKETBALL, page 6
New plaza on Main Street JOSIE ROBERTSON Staff Writer
Downtown Cedar Falls will continue to undergo construction this summer with the anticipated two new buildings and reconfigured parking. According to Audrey Kittrell, marketing director
for River Place at Eagle View Partners, the master plan for the area known as River Place was approved three years ago. The purpose of the project is to reconnect the city with the Cedar River. The building currently under construction, 200 State St., is the

first of two mixed-use buildings that are to be created for River Place, Kittrell said. Mixed-use buildings can be used for commercial purposes on the first floor with residential areas above. 200 State St. will feature five retail bays on the bottom level, including a restaurant and a market place with a patio that will connect to a public plaza, said Kittrell. The city is currently contemplating taking ownership of the plaza once it is finished, according to Carol Lilly, executive director of Community Main Street. “The plaza will be public space and we hope to program it with events and activities for a wide range of targeted markets,” said Lilly. The other two buildings planned are still under development. One, a residential building, will be built behind the 200 State St. building. The other building will be on Second Street.

BOR unanimously OK’s admission changes AMBER ROUSE
Executive Editor
At the Feb. 5 Iowa Board of Regents meeting, members passed changes to the Regent Admission Index in a unanimous vote. These changes to the RAI formula will allow students without a high school class rank to determine probabilities of success at the state's three regent universities. The new formula for non-ranked students will be weighted on ACT scores and grade-point averages and will go into effect for the incoming freshmen fall 2016. Students will need to achieve a minimum score
of 245 for direct admission. The new formula multiplies the ACT score by three, high school GPA by 30 and completed core subjects by five. The board reviewed changes to the RAI because fewer schools are using class rank and each university uses its own method when admitting students, said Diana Gonzalez, chief academic officer for the regents. According to a Courier article, an estimated 40 Iowa school districts, which includes about 350 public school districts, do not use class rank. The majority of these schools contribute a larger volume of Iowa students to the regent universities, said Gonzalez.

Executive Editor
The City of Cedar Falls has issued a snow emergency from 9 p.m. Monday to 6 a.m. Tuesday in order to clear snow from the College Hill and downtown areas. According to the Courier, the parking prohibition will go into effect two hours from the time the declaration is made. After the two hour mark, any vehicle in violation will be towed at the owner's expense.

Where has the leadership gone? GABE GRAVERT
gravertg @uni.edu
Although the presidential election isn’t for another 21 months, the candidates are already coming out of the woodwork for their respective parties. My main problem with the current possible candidates is there isn’t a candidate that shows any kind of actual leadership qualities. They seem to be more like followers, trailing whereever the money leads them. The average cost of a presidential campaign in 2012 was over $1 billion each. That is well over 2 billion dollars that could have been spent on ending hunger in America or funding our military. With all of this money being spent on the possibility of a person becoming president of the United States, you think we would pay for a leader, but all we’ve got is followers. The definition of leadership is “the ability of lead.” The definition of lead is “to manage or control a group of people; to be the person who makes decisions that other people choose to
follow or obey.” Now all of the possible candidates have the “to manage or control a group of people” down, but that is only one part of how to lead. Our “leaders” were elected to their respective position by tricking and paying for people to vote for them. The second part of the definition of lead is a lot harder because it specifically says that people choose to follow or obey. If our leaders have to enforce their decisions, they are not truly leading. In Lee Iacocca’s book Where Have All the Leaders Gone, he mentions his 9 C’s; Common Sense, Communication, Creativity, Conviction, Competence, Courage, Character, Charisma, and Curiosity. My favorite C is Common Sense. To quote his book, because I couldn’t come up with any better words, he says “If you can’t tell the difference between a dip of horse crap and a dip of vanilla ice cream then you’ll never make it in this world.” If you can’t tell when someone is giving you a whole bunch of b---s--- from someone who is telling the truth with conviction then you’re going to be played for the rest of your life. I do see little of bits of

leadership in some of the candidates in the next election. Martin O’Malley, though I disagree with almost everything he stands for, is the governor of Maryland and former mayor of Baltimore. He is a leader and if he stays true to his beliefs then he could be a great leader. On the other side of the aisle I see two possibly good leaders Ben Carson, who is a former brain surgeon and
author who was the first to separate conjoined twins and the closest to the middle on either side of the debate. Also Scott Walker, governor of Wisconsin, has done wonderful things for the state of Wisconsin. As I look at the possible candidates for 2016 presidential election I don’t see too many “C’s” in them. None of them come up with creative ideas to fix what is broken
in America. Even if they did have the creative ideas they don’t have the courage for conviction to convince their peers that it is the best plan for America. I am still waiting for someone to come from the woodworks to change my opinion about what the next step is for America. I really hope that in 2016 that 2 billion goes to better work for the people of America.
Role models and the Superbowl fight ERIC BOISEN boisen @uni.edu
This year’s Super Bowl was a good one. The Seahawks and the Patriots were two very good teams and the game was very intense. In the last two minutes of the game, when the competition was at its most intense, a fight broke out. This fight caused some people who were watching the game to get angry at those players. “Why start a fight?!” they exclaimed, “You are supposed to be role models for our children!” I disagree with those who believe that the players who fought were acting foolish. Yes, I believe that they should not have fought, and, in all fairness they were fined by the NFL because they fought. But do I care? No. Should you care? Not at all. These players were playing the most important game of the year, and the game was so close that it should be no surprise that their emotions were off
the charts. I am not angry at those players for throwing some punches and being aggressive. They were playing in the Super Bowl. The entire season for the Patriots and Seahawks rode on the outcome of this singular game. The situation would have been different if everyone was watching the 3-13 Jaguars play the 2-14 Titans (Go Jags!) Do I condone the fight? No, but I still don’t care that it happened. If you are a parent, and your kid saw these “role models” fighting, take your kid aside and talk to them. Tell your kid that what these players did was wrong and that they were caught up in the heat of the moment and threw punches. Tell your kid that the players will be punished (and they were through NFL fines) and tell your kid that they’ll be punished too if they replicate those actions. To discuss this further, we must ask ourselves: “Do we honestly want kids to have these players as role models?” Sure, they work hard at what they do, but they are ruining their bodies in the

process. A 2009 University of Michigan study showed that football players have a 19 times higher risk of getting memory-related diseases like Alzheimers than the general population. The NFL has been sued by thousands of players. These players claimed that the NFL hid evidence that playing football led to a higher risk of permanent brain injury. With more and more information about these serious injuries com-
ing to light, both parents and the general population need to start considering whether they should make these players role models. Now, these injuries are not necessarily the players’ fault. Many have said they were left in the dark about the injuries they could sustain. These players are also paid millions of dollars, much more than the average American, to play football for our entertainment. I am personally a fan
of football and I like watching the sport. After learning about all the potential injuries, if players still want to play, then let them, I will still watch. No one should stop them. But should we have kids look up to these players? Especially when their career can lead them to a debilitating mental or physical disability for the rest of their life? Though I question whether a child should have a football player as a role model, I am not judging. Many football players are model citizens and do great things for their community. But kids will very often try to take up the profession of their role model. As we learn more and more about the dangers of professional and scholastic football, we should consider whether we want kids to go down that path. And with all these life-long injuries that many football players receive during their career playing a game for our enjoyment, should we really be mad at them for getting into a fight? I personally don’t think we should.

FILM REVIEW
Time travel film missed the mark JOSHUA ROUSE
Film Critic
The shaky-cam, found footage category of filmmaking has always been hit or miss, either with how it’s executed or how the audience receives it. “Project Almanac” is one of the poorer examples of the genre. Directed by Dean Israelite and written by Jason Harry Pagan and Andrew Deutschman, this sci-fi thriller is about teens who come across a time machine built by the protagonist’s father (played by Johnny Weston and Gary Weeks, respectively.) Now the entire movie is shot from a hand held camera, as per the usual found footage formula, but during a couple beginning sequences of the film, it was hard to figure out who was holding the camera, or even if it was a camera. I think it was supposed to be an iPhone a couple of times and why you would record what you and your friends are doing at lunch, or carry the camera into
class with you, I don’t understand. Granted, once the time machine was found, then the recording of events was more necessary, but until then, there really was no point for it to be a found footage film quite yet. That was one of the problems with “Project Almanac.” There were parts where it didn’t need to be in found footage form. It would’ve been okay if they switched between regular camera work and handheld. Also, there were two montage sequences, and those are perfectly doable in a found footage film, but it completely ruins the entire type of movie that it’s going for when there is pop music from today’s hits playing during the montage. And it’s not coming from a radio, it’s put in as a soundtrack, and that just doesn’t work for what “Project Almanac” was trying to be. Now I’m not saying this movie was completely terrible. There were some genuinely good plot
points and witty humor spiking up every so often, but there were just too many things wrong with the movie over all to recommend for more than one watch, if even to watch it at all. The time t r ave l sequences are done well and albeit a couple consequences and events seem way out of left field, even for something as heavily debated as time travel. But the science part of this science fiction is done with the assuredness that the science homework was done for a “plausible” way for the characters to time travel, rather than just suddenly mastering the machine out of the blue. There was another teen-mischief-foundfootage sci-fi movie that came out a couple years ago called “Chronicle.” I highly recommend that over “Project Almanac.” It pulls off this type of movie so much better.

Brittany Bunger Senior Marketing major
The way that Cedar Falls handled the snow removal was really bad, being as we live in a college town and they [snow removal crew] got to take a day off because they were tired. I don’t think it was handled in the correct way, especially when people have to walk to class and most people have jobs so driving was extremely terrible.

I think there was a really big issue with snow removal this past snow. Personally, my road was really bad and I have a terrible car that doesn’t handle very well if there’s snow on the roads. The roads near my apartment were completely covered three to four days after it snowed.

UNIFI hosts 7th annual Darwin Week KATHERINE JAMTGAARD Staff Writer
The 7th annual Darwin Week hosted by the UNI Freethinkers and Inquirers kicks off this week. UNIFI has been working on this year’s event since September. UNIFI started Darwin Week to celebrate the life and work of Charles Darwin within the scientific field. Due to this, Darwin Week takes place during the week of Feb. 12, Darwin’s birthday. “Since then, it has been expanded to celebrating various aspects of life, culture, nature and science,” said Natalie Kaufman, sophomore philosophy major. Each day of the week will feature a topics like science, skepticism, diversity and religion. “The purpose of Darwin Week is to start a conversation and engage the public in critical thinking and reason,” Kaufman said. To her, the week is a way to “make material more accessible to the public, covering everything from black holes to religious texts. Darwin
Week exists as a way to help people think critically and appreciate knowledge.” Some of the topics and speakers will be Tyler O’Brien, associate professor of sociology, anthropology and criminology speaking about death perception, and Susan Hill, professor of world religions speaking about homosexuality and the bible. Each night there will be a keynote speaker. These speakers include: Michael Kurilla of the National Institue of Health (NIH), retired United States Air Force (USAF) pilot James McGaha, Debbie Goddard of Center for Inquiry and Faisal Saeed Al-Mutar, founder of the Global Secular Humanist Movement. Kaufman hopes that students take away fresh information from Darwin Week. “I think there’s at least one talk that each student would be interested in. We’re hoping to see people turn out and start thinking about something they might not have thought about without the help of Darwin Week,” Kaufman said.

I can see where they’re coming from with the continual snow falling, but their people needed to be ready to go and plow it when the snow was done. But by saying people should stay home, that was not a good statement. They should not have said that because it’s a college town and people are really busy doing things.

Panthers fight back for fifth straight road win RYAN NELSON
Sports Writer
University of Northern Iowa junior forward Amber Sorenson poured in a teamhigh 16 points (four shots coming from deep) en route to a 59-52 victory over Illinois State Friday in Normal, IL. The Panthers showed a lot of toughness in this win, as they blew a double-digit lead with under four minutes to play, but fought back to regain the lead and secure the victory. This win marked UNI’s fifth MVC road win in a row. UNI lead 30-25 at the break after Madison Weekly splashed in one of her two baskets from long range. Weekly finished the game with 12 points, 10 of which came in the first half. The Panthers began the second half on a 5-1 run. They maintained their lead until the Redbirds furiously stormed back with an 18-2 run of their own to briefly grab the lead 50-48. However, freshman Ellie Herzberg, who has played impressively this season, knocked down a pair of free throws to tie the game back up at 50. A Sorenson three, and a collection of free throws then put the

UNI falls to 3-3 in MAC ZACH HUNTLEY Sports Writer
The Panthers fought hard for one of their closest match-ups of the season this weekend. While making strides to try and get up the ranks in the MAC, their meet this Friday made them 3-3 in the conference as they fell to Ohio in Athens. UNI’s heavyweight Blaize Cabell stays perfect in duals at 13-0 and goes on the 6-0 in the MAC. He won by major decision over Ohio’s Jesse Webb with 21-8 last Friday, marking his tenth consecutive win of the season. Dylan Peters of the 125 pound bout took his victory by technical fall over Ohio’s Zak Hassan — winning in 6 minutes 16 seconds with a final score of 2-7. Peters’ victory made him 5-1 this season in matches for the MAC. Panther Jarrett Jensen took the first victory of the night, competing for the 157 lbs. bout. Fighting to get ahead, he scored 5-3 over

Spartak Chino of Ohio, getting his last points from a takedown in the third period. The ferocious Cooper Moore left little room for Ohio’s Harrison Hightower to get on the scoreboard, as he dominated the match with a 7-1 decision. His victory put him at 9-0 in duals this year, and 6-0 in the MAC. The last match of the night was won by UNI’s Jake Hodges at 141 lbs. The
11-6 decision was unfortunately not enough to get the Panthers on top, as they fell to Ohio 20-18. UNI also competed in Kent, Ohio this Sunday against Kent State. Looking ahead, UNI’s wrestlers will travel to Ames next weekend to face our neighboring rival Iowa State. The public is encouraged to support keeping the Panther Train rolling.

“Their guards definitely collapsed when Wes [Washpun] and Deon [Mitchell] got in there so we were wide open on the perimeter,” Jesperson said after the game. During the second half, Drake broke down some of the lead 51-42 with 12:32 remaining. But it was nullified with three straight three-pointers. Even with confidence rising as the 14th ranked team in the nation, both players and coaches still feel they need to keep building on the season. “We had a couple guys get anxious in the second half. I tell them all the time we need to keep building. I think that’s key for this team,” Coach Jacobson noted. “We got a lot of depth and I feel we can keep getting better, and we have over the past ten days.” The Panthers will stay in the McLeod Center as they play the Illinois State RedbirdsWednesday night at 7 p.m.
