Crime and safety statistics highlight rape cases
Bonfire likely cancelled
By Alex Helm Staff Writer @alex_helm
There were 12 rape cases and six fondling cases on campus in 2014, according to UNT’s annual report for security and fire safety released Tuesday. It revealed crime statistics on and off campus from 2014 in compliance with the Clery Act. The issue of sexual assault on campus has become an increasingly pressing one across the nation, and the data curated in Annual Security and Fire Safety Report reflects that national debate. The sexual assault statistics were previously tallied by the university, but because of the Violence Against Women Act, the university reported them in a new way. “We’ve always counted them, but because of the way the law is written, we are defining them in new categories,” UNT spokesperson Margarita Venegas said. “If you see the crime statistics themselves, you will see that they’re broken down in a different way than in previous years, but the reporting is basically the same.” The report now shows the number of sex offenses, which include rape, fondling, incest and statutory rape. Of the reported sexual assault cases, 11 rape and five fondling cases occurred within residential facilities. “There’s been an increase in reporting [rape] because it’s been a national issue and people are overall more aware of this becoming a problem on

Airforce R.O.T.C wing commander leads cadets to success By Kyle Martin Staff Writer @Kyle_Martin35 Next year, chemistry senior Kaitlyn Trujillo will be a commissioned officer in the United States Air Force. She is prospecting Europe, but for now she is a cadet wing commander in the UNT Air Force Reserve Officer Training Corps (R.O.T.C.) Detachment 835. Trujillo oversees about 82 cadets
in the program. She has to keep them in line, keep them fit physically, emotionally and academically, make sure they are apt and ready to complete objectives, and maintain morale throughout the corps. Cadets look to her for guidance and leadership in times of need. As wing commander, Trujillo is the figurehead of the cadets in the corps. The senior saw tremendous

Both Trujillo and her younger sister Kelli, psychology sophomore and cadet third class, are in the UNT Air Force R.O.T.C. program. “I’ve always wanted to join the military. [I have] a huge family background in the military, so I figured R.O.T.C. would be a good way to go in as an officer and still get a college degree,” Trujillo said.

Clint Wilkinson, the owner of Bell and Oak Leather Goods within Weldon’s Saddle Shop on East Hickory, ran his hand through his neatly-sculpted beard as he recalled his search for a more traditional barber experience. He recently took to Facebook to voice his desire for a local barbershop, intent on not taking advantage of customers. It’s a shop that would take care to shave with straight-razors, pay highly specific detail to the customer’s desired hairstyle and spend as much time as needed to ensure a concrete experience. “Our family is six generations deep in Denton,” Wilkinson said. “Living here and working at the shop my entire life, I’ve had a hard time finding places to get my hair
cut and beard trimmed without feeling like all I was good for was my money.” His long-time friend Zach Johnston commented on his status in reply, and told him to check out his Traveling Groom Parlor and Beard Emporium. “I’ve never seen anything like it,” Wilkinson said. “They got my slicked-back hairstyle just the way I wanted it, properly groomed my beard, and everything was absolutely perfect.” Built out of an old Matco Tools truck purchased off Craigslist, the Traveling Groom Parlor and Beard Emporium is parked next to the outside porch area of East Side Bar on Oak Street, and anybody is welcome to pay a visit without appointment from 6 p.m. to 2 a.m. Monday through Friday.

Troy Taylor quietly leads men’s cross-country By Jessy Brackeen Staff Writer @Hail_BracKing
Kinesiology senior Troy Taylor sits on a bench outside the Business Leadership Building as hundreds of students walk by. Shrouded in obscurity on a campus where names such as Carlos Harris, Carnae Dillard and Jackie Kerestine are mainstays, one of the most decorated athletes at UNT goes unrecognized. Taylor is the most dominant member of what has become one of the most successful programs at
North Texas. He has been named the Conference USA male athlete of the week twice this season, having only competed in three races. Addtionally, the men’s cross country team has become a diamond in the rough these first few weeks, finishing 1st in its first two races and 2nd in its most recent race at the Texas A&M Invitational. “On paper we are beating big name schools and competing at high levels,” Taylor said. “We are one of the top schools in the region, and I think if you went here it would be cool to know that we have a kickass cross country team.”
Taylor started running in sixth grade after drawing inspiration from his father, who ran for the University of Texas at Arlington. “He told me stories of him running. That sort of inspired me,” Taylor said. “I wanted to run. I wanted to play all the sports in middle school, but I definitely excelled most in running. I knew I could go somewhere with this. If I keep up with this I could run in college, maybe get a scholarship and help my parents out.”

The homecoming bonfire will likely be cancelled because of the Denton County burn ban, and will be replaced with a green-out carnival. Though no final decision has been officially announced, Director of Student Affairs Christa Coffey said the likelihood of the bonfire taking place is slim. “We’re 98 percent sure that we’re not going to get enough rain in time,” Coffey said. “[But] nothing’s for sure until a day or two before and we can’t put it together.” The university will replace the bonfire with “Nonfire Fest,” of which the details will be released at a later time, though Coffey and others said the events will be free for students and alumni. “Our biggest goal is to find some way to encourage all the students and alumni to come on out to the bonfire and celebrate UNT,” said Daniel Suda, the coordinator for campus-wide events and traditions. “But also understand the bonfire isn’t happening, so we want to have a fun alternative to the original plan.” Planners decided to obey the county’s burn ban policy in an effort to avoid a potential misdemeanor and continue the ongoing record of good relations between the university and the Denton fire marshal, Laura Behrens.

Reports show decrease in post-grad jobs By Linda Kessler Copy Editor @LindaKessler The number of students who landed jobs after graduation decreased by less than 2 percent last year, according to the Career Center. In addition, 75.3 percent of students were either employed or going to graduate school last year, which is a 1.7 percent decrease from the 77 percent the year before. These statistics were reported by graduating seniors from 2014 and 2015. For 2015, 946 students reported to the Career Center, compared to 612 the prior year. Of those 946, 604 were employed and 109 had plans to go to graduate school, compared to 402 employed and 69 continuing their education the year before. “I would consider that decrease noise in the data,” UNT President Neal Smatresk said. He added that if the trend continues, the university will begin to investigate probable causes. The overall pressure on getting students employed upon graduation is a priority for UNT, or, as Smatresk said, “a campuswide commitment.” There are things UNT can and cannot control regarding helping its students find employment upon graduation. The university doesn’t control job market employment opportunities, only how educated and real-world ready the students are upon graduation. Executive director of

County burn ban a problem for homecoming bonfire HOMECOMING CONTINUED FROM PAGE 1
Behrens wrote in an email that even though UNT is under the jurisdiction of the state fire marshal, the university has been working closely with the city of Denton on many issues. “While we have no authority to enforce local adopted ordinances or regulations on state property,” Behrens said.,“[we] ask that all public safety considerations be taken into account during special event planning.” Those involved in the planning of the new event met for two hours Wednesday night to discuss ideas for what to do instead. With five student organizations working on a $4,500 budget, tensions were high. Though most expressed confidence in the university’s ability to make Nonfire a success under such short notice, others were not happy about changing a UNT tradition on the school’s 125th anniversary. “I think we should just take that misdemeanor,” said Talons bonfire head coordinator Carolina Columba. Nonfire is expected to appeal to a variety of people, with a wide array of events. “I feel like we all came up with a really good idea really fast.” said Dwaelyne Jones, Student Government Association director of student affairs. “It doesn’t capture the essence of tradition at UNT, but it will be very needed.” Regardless of the replacement event, the bonfire has multiple components that will still take place. Suda urges students to show up for events like the spirit walk and pep rally to boost school spirit and participate in a UNT tradition. Voting for homecoming court

Once selected, applicants will
be judged on their leadership skills, involvement on campus, and general school spirit. “We have a variety of staff and students who assist in the judging of homecoming,” said Suda. “This year we had the assistance from 15 different judges to review the applications and sit in on interviews.”
Those who make it past the judges will be able to start their campaigns to earn as many student votes as they can to win. “Next week is going to be a doozy for everyone to come and get all this done.” said Jones. “I’m actually really excited to see all of this come together.”

Parking plan criticized in proposed project By Jenna Duncan Denton Record-Chronicle
Dozens of residents voiced concerns about a development concept that could come to West Hickory Street across from the University of North Texas, in a preliminary community meeting on Tuesday. Representatives from the development company EdR Collegiate Housing showed preliminary plans for a student housing complex that would take the place of Voertman’s and Subway. The project still is a concept, but it would be about 500,000 square feet and stretch from West Hickory Street to West Oak Street. The main issue residents addressed was parking. For the proposed 378 residents on the property, the plan currently allows for 256 parking spots. Rodney King, vice president of development with EdR, said the company’s
Reports show decrease in post-grad jobs
developments typically alleviate traffic issues and many students don’t have cars, a statement that made attendees chuckle among themselves. “I promise you, if you are only going to have 60 percent parking spaces in a basement that’s going to flood ... that is not enough parking,” said Peggy Capps, a 25-year resident of Oak Street. “I promise you that you’re going to have a lot of trouble getting any of us to go along with what you’re proposing because we’ve been burned too many times, and we’re trying to protect the neighborhood and the history.” Resident after resident voiced similar concerns, mainly focusing on how there is a need for more parking and how the project would impact an already congested traffic area. King said they will go back to the design to look at adding more parking, but they do not plan on getting the parking to a one-car-to-
one-bed ratio. Although it is dictated in city code now, the developer will apply for a variance so it can skip the requirement. If not granted, King said they would not move forward with the project. “Fortunately — or unfortunately, depending on your point of view — the University of North Texas is growing,” King said. “They have a growth plan that is extremely aggressive. I don’t want to sound bold or anything, but development is going to come to satisfy the market need. We just want to have smart development that is inclusive of your comments.” He stressed that residents would be able to hold EdR to a higher standard than other developers in the area because it’s a publicly traded company. If the site is developed, there will be on-site community management 24 hours per day, and the property will be maintained, he said. He estimated the project will cost $30 million to $40 million, and rent will be in the same
range of comparable properties near UNT, which is about $700 to $1,000 per bed. There will be 121 units, and each room would be rented separately with shared living spaces in the units. Construction could begin as early as February, depending on when the company files paperwork with the city to start the project. Residents and business owners also voiced concerns about how tall the building could be — about 58 to 59 feet — which developers want to be higher than code allows. This means they would have to file for a variance, and the city would have to approve making the building that tall. “My building is two-stories tall, and you’re going to put me in the dark in the afternoon if you’re granted your variance,” said Kim McKibben, owner of Big Mike’s Coffee. “I’m going to ask City Council not to grant you that variance, specifically because it’s going to be a tall, skinny building.”

campuses,” interim UNT police chief Ed Reynolds said. In many cases, sexual assault sur vivors need resources that will help them, but do not want police involved. The UNT police want sexual assault sur vivors to not be hesitant to repor t to authorities. The repor t also includes the university’s outreach and prevention programs available to those who feel unsafe or have been assaulted. “It’s impor tant to note that we train our campus security authorities to make sure that if someone repor ts a crime, that they repor t to police,” Reynolds said. “Even if the sur vivor doesn’t want to repor t to police.”
From 2013 to 2014, the number of on-campus liquor law violations that resulted in ar rests decreased from 124 to 118, and that includes residential facilities. But the number of dr ug law violations that resulted in ar rests increased from 111 to 128. The number of on-campus non-ar rest alcohol violations that resulted in campus refer rals fell from 208 to 134. Non-ar rest dr ug violations dropped from 72 to 66. Additionally, the university repor ted 25 burglaries on campus, up from 19 in 2013. Students and faculty can access the full repor t, on the Student Affairs webpage.
Career and Leadership Development Dan Naegeli said the decline could be caused by a multitude of factors. He said this year 50 percent more graduates reported their employment status to the Career Center and the response of those going to graduate school increased by 0.2 percent. Additionally, Naegeli said the job market can have an impact on student employment when they begin to look for opportunities. “If it’s a good job market, students might not think they need to start as early to find a job, but even though the market is good there’s a lot of competition out there,” Naegeli said. “We do check to see when people started their job search, and this past year on average they started a bit later than the year before.” Naegeli said administrators, including him, are not alarmed by the decline. If it were a larger decrease, the issue would be more pertinent to university operations, but Naegeli said it’s something he and his colleagues will monitor closely. “We’re seeing more companies coming to campus to recruit. We’re seeing more companies interviewing and we’re seeing more jobs posted,” Naegeli said. “So I’m not really sure what would otherwise contribute to the slight decrease.” Though the change may be considered slight, it’s not something to be ignored. Smatresk said the biggest thing the university can do is expend its network through increasing business relations and utilizing the alumni network. Smatresk said the old trend of simply sending your child to college to get an education is going away. He said it’s beneficial for students to build professional development skills at the same time in addition to getting an education. They’re complimentary now. “I think it’s everybody’s job here to help students find that next stage in their life, it’s critical,” Naegeli said. “You don’t want to go to college for four years, walk out of here and say, ‘Well I don’t have a job now.’” In order to aid students in finding employment, the Career Center hosts a multitude of career fairs each semester for industries like business, education, government nonprofit, engineering and technology. It also holds resume and interview workshops and hosts company interviews. “We had 161 companies on campus interviewing students for full-time positions over the last year,” Naegeli said. Naegeli said he talks to a lot of students who say they don’t have time to look for a job, but it’s something they should be focusing on. He added that three months out from graduating in 2014, 7.7 percent of students who replied about their employment had yet to start looking for a job, and 10.7 percent waited until after graduation. “Well, you’re not going to get a job if you don’t start looking for one,” Naegeli said.

Portable generator picks up slack for GAB Experts discuss the new small step: water on Mars By Alejandro Medellin Staff Writer @skinny_fats
Despite recent renovations on campus, the General Academic Building is experiencing power failures that have prompted the university to seek alternative power solutions. Because of these issues, the university rented a portable generator — that trailer outside the GAB — from Cummins Power to power the building in case of emergency. The generator in question failed to power the GAB during an outage earlier in the semester. Vincent Stippec, utilities manager at the facilities department, said UNT installed
the portable generator on Sept. 11 and ran it for five days. The portable generator is not running now, but is on-hand if needed. “We experienced some trouble on the permanent generator on the north side of the GAB,” said Stippec. “[We] can’t not have a generator.” Stippec added there have been portable generators attached to other buildings but are hidden, and not out in the open like the one at the GAB. The GAB houses Academic Computing and User Services, which is an integral part of the university. “[The power] is still causing problems,” ACUS administrator John Pearson said. “Some of
our redundant systems are not working properly and therefore we can’t basically provide a service for the university.” Not only does the GAB house the ACUS, but also has labs, classrooms, a coffee shop and administrative offices that need to be operable on a daily basis. “We basically had to change our daily operations to wait for the redundant systems to come back and be more reliable,” Pearson said. “We’re still operating but we basically had a work-around we had to implement.” The generator on the north side failed last semester and, although it was repaired, is once again the cause for the portable generator housed outside the GAB.
“I guess what’s upsetting is that somebody didn’t do their job,” Pearson said. “We were supposed to have a nice generator that was working great and was supposed to have battery backups that worked really well, and for whatever reason those didn’t come through for us.” Pearson said apart from the portable generator being an eyesore, it provided functionality to the GAB and he’s glad there is a power source available, should there be an outage. Parts for the permanent generator at the GAB have been ordered and are set to arrive in two to four weeks. Once the parts are there it will take three to five days to install and operations should continue.

More than 1,000 view supermoon at planetarium By Jessy Diamba Staff Writer @jessyjamba
More than 1,000 people joined the staff at UNT’s RAFES Urban Astronomy Center for a peek at Sunday night’s rare combination of a supermoon and total lunar eclipse.
Staff originally expected about 400 people to attend, but later announced the observatory had reached capacity. For Ron Dilulio, astronomy program and planetarium director, the large turnout was wonderful news. “Funny enough, my interest in astronomy began when I
went to a star party just like this,” Dilulio said. “I got to look through a telescope and saw the planet Saturn and its rings.” For $3, guests were able to look through highpowered telescopes, attend a presentation by the staff about the moon and its many myths, as well as shoot photos of

By Adalberto Toledo Staff Writer @adaltoledo29 NASA announced Monday the discovery of hydrated salts on the surface of Mars and experts from UNT are looking toward the future. With the current atmospheric conditions on Mars’ surface, liquid water cannot persist in large quantities. But the current results show that parts of the surface are more moist than previously thought and the atmosphere is more humid, associate professor of physics Ohad Shemmer said. “This would make manned missions to the planet even easier, since the astronauts might not have to carry large amounts of water with them to the planet,” Shemmer said. “The water on Mars may even be used as propellant for getting the crew back to Earth.” Shemmer said it might now be easier to search for Martian life and enhance the possibility of future manned missions. “Given that water is probably more abundant on the Martian surface than previously thought, it may be much easier to set up a future human colony on the planet,” Shemmer said. As for Mars’ past, Shemmer said it was probably a lot like Earth at one point. “Mars may have experienced a major climatic change recently, although it’s not clear how ‘recent’ is translated to time in this case,” Shemmer said. “It appears as if Mars is now in its ‘dry’ phase, following an episode of water flowing on its surface.” Astronomy professor Jim Roberts said he was not surprised to hear of the discovery, given the evidence of canyons, such as the Valles Marineris, that stretch over nearly a fourth of the planet’s circumference. “Some liquid formed there that had to cut away at the [ground],” Roberts said. “I wasn’t surprised we found water.” He also speculates this might be a sign of more water under the surface. “The temperature is high and the
Valles Marineris on Mars. Courtesy | WIkimedia Commons evaporation rate might allow the water to evaporate,” Roberts said. “But there’s the other side of the coin: there might be water trapped underground.” He added that water might be used in different ways to aid potential settlers. “We have electrolysis,” Roberts said. “With that we would be able to separate hydrogen from oxygen. Hydrogen to burn, oxygen to breathe.” Roberts said the main issue settlers will have is with the atmosphere, which is composed of mainly carbon dioxide. While water may be necessary for living organisms, it is not a sufficient condition for life. “The atmosphere might be harvested on Mars to get the other gases that we need,” Roberts said. “Primarily we’d need nitrogen and oxygen.” Roberts said that full terraformation – a term coined by Carl Sagan detailing the process of reworking a planet’s biosphere for human habitability – might not be necessary. Future explorers may only need to terraform certain regions of Mars. For Roberts, this is more of an incentive for his students to keep dreaming. “We have to dream before we can reach for things,” Roberts said. “One thing I try to work on is to get these kiddos to imagine, dream and think wild, crazy things. What’s crazy today may be standard a decade from now.”

DATING
Love at first swipe: The growing world of online dating By Anjulie Van Sickle Staff Writer @anjuliegrace
Fashion merchandising sophomore Tristen Newman has a pretty simple love story. He met a guy, they went on a typical first date, and they’ve been dating for the past nine months. The only catch: they met on Tinder. In a culture of “hookup” dates and quick fixes, dating apps like Tinder, OkCupid and Hinge have become increasingly popular. According to a 2015 study by the Pew Research Center, one in five adults ages 25 to 34 have utilized online dating. Tinder, a free app for iPhone or Android, lets users anonymously browse possible matches in their area by swiping right if they’re interested or swiping left if they aren’t. Users can also click on someone’s picture to view the person’s profile. “It’s a fast and easy way to meet single people around you,” education sophomore Destiny Beaver said. The app is easy to set up. Users only need to connect to their Facebook account, and Tinder will upload the user’s first name, interests, photos and age to create the profile. Although there are several online dating sites, such as Zoosk. com, Match.com and OurTime. com, most students said they immediately go to Tinder when trying out online dating.
Newman said he first started using the app last year when his best friend at home told him to give it a shot. “A lot of people think of Tinder as a quick hook-up app,” Newman said. “It’s hard to find someone on there who’s genuinely a nice person.” When Newman first started using Tinder last year, he was turned off by people who lied on their profile, a process known as “catfishing.” He stopped using it for a few months, but after he met his current boyfriend Brandon Hagey, he decided to give the app another chance. “It wasn’t any different in person than online,” he said about his first meeting with Hagey. “It was a shock to me because I had expected it to be a little bit different, just from the way we interacted online, because one is face-to-face and the other is on the Internet.” Newman’s story is a rare example when compared to the statistics found in a Pew Research Study. According to the study, one-third of the people using online dating apps have not actually gone on a date. Interior design sophomore McKenzie Pepper used Tinder for just under a year before deciding it wasn’t for her. “It’s fun and it’s different, as long as you’re safe about it,” she said. “I’ve made a few friends, but never once did I want to go on a date.” Tinder seems to be taking

The app has introduced TinderPlus, where people will get charged $9.99 if they’re under 30 and $19.99 if they’re 30 and over. The new
addition also allows for more swipes and likes. “I think it’s very sketchy,” media arts and business sophomore Daniel Caballero said.
Despite the hook-up mentality some students have toward the rise of the online dating world, there is still potential for a happy ending. “You’re going to find good
and bad people, both in the real world and online, so don’t make an online dating app negative because it’s online,” Newman said. “You might end up finding someone you fall in love with.”

Capt. Snodgrass said Trujillo’s position is no easy task by any means, but it has its rewards “It’s tough being a wing commander, because you expect everybody to do their job and hold them accountable and responsible for doing their job,” Snodgrass said. “Sometimes there [are] uncomfortable conversations, but she gets to reward a lot of cadets as well.” In order to become wing commander, Trujillo had to apply and get selected for a shot at the position. Once chosen, she had to prove herself in field training, the basic training all potential Air Force officers must complete through the R.O.T.C. program. Field training consisted of a 28-day training program. Trujillo spent two weeks at Camp Shelby in Mississippi and two weeks at Maxwell Air Force Base in Alabama, passing off objectives and learning how to be an effective leader in the armed forces. After she completed field training, the cadet was interviewed by Lt. Col. Jody Addison, the commander of Detachment 835. She was then chosen to lead as wing commander of the UNT detachment. Lt. Col. Addison noticed Trujillo’s vision and creativity in the corps and saw something in her that was ultimately the deciding factor for honoring her with the position. “She was quite confident and stood out as a strong, charismatic leader that would be able to engage the cadets in a positive way,” Addison said. In her position, Trujillo handpicks her own staff, shares an office with her vice wing commander and assigns jobs within the corps. “The longer you’re in the program, the more this kind of becomes a second home,” Trujillo said. “So even if I don’t have anything to do, this is still where we all come to hang out, meet and study for homework. It’s a nice place to get together with everybody.” Trujillo sees the R.O.T.C. program and her wing as one collective family. To aid in being a successful wing, cadets spend time together outside
of their positions and training to bond and maintain a strong relationship with each other. Her staff and fellow cadets look up to her and see the same leadership skills and vision that Lt. Col. Addison saw. Cadet Mitchell Saville, linguistics senior and vice wing commander under Trujillo, remarked on her initiative and direction as leader of the wing. “It’s nice to be working under a leadership where your needs are considered... Everything is addressed in a real-time manner, which in a dynamic leadership position is crucial if you want anything to happen,” Saville said. “It’s been a pleasure working under her.” Aside from leading Detachment 835, Trujillo holds a job outside of the program, volunteers and commutes from Allen. She drives up to campus five days a week and puts a great deal of time and effort into making sure everything runs smoothly. Trujillo is under scholarship, which she obtained immediately after graduating high school. There are many scholarship options under the R.O.T.C. program and other opportunities for success within the corps, but that doesn’t make it easy. An individual’s GPA and his or her ability to keep up with academics are two of the key aspects for achievement within the program. The wing commander’s plan for the future is bright. She wishes to be a pharmacist within the Air Force with her chemistry degree and biology minor and hopes to be stationed in Europe, having traveled to England and France during high school. To Trujillo, the most rewarding part of being in R.O.T.C. isn’t the money or the title, but instead the interactions with her colleagues. “My favorite part is actually training the incoming freshman and sophomore cadets,” Trujillo said. “I love watching how they go from being nervous about being here in the beginning, kind of shy, to actually coming out of their shell and becoming more confident in helping out others, and seeing them transition from that nervous initial cadet.”
‘Black Mass’ slow-burn crime drama
By Harrison Long Editorial Writer @HarrisonGLong With the level of press surrounding director Scott Cooper’s new feature film “Black Mass”, the question of Johnny Depp’s resurgence from the depths of a waning career seems to be paved in the wake of this movie. Apart from relatively consistent positive feedback surrounding the “Pirates of the Caribbean” franchise, the once box office god has found himself cast in a considerable number of flop motion pictures in recent years. There is no question of the actors’ talent or range of ability, yet the spark that makes a truly great film has seemed to be lacking as of late, leaving to question what taking on the story of a real-life mob boss may do in terms of reviving a sense of selection in role-choices. Spanning over the course of several decades, “Mass” tells the story of James “Whitey” Bulger, one of Boston’s most notorious gangsters and one of the FBI’s most wanted fugitives for the last twenty years. There is no shortage of talent in this film, as alongside Depp are Oscar-nominated Benedict Cumberbatch (“Sherlock,” “The Imitation Game”), Joel Edgerton (“The Great Gatsby,” “The Gift”), Kevin Bacon (“Footloose”) and Adam Scott (“Parks and Recreation”). The all-star cast weaves itself in and out of the story over the course of the film, beginning in 1975 at the beginning of Bulger’s climb to lead the Winter Hill Gang, switching to the present day as many of those standing alongside the purportedly insane Bulger find themselves across the table from an FBI interrogator, coming to wrap in 2011 when the infamous outlaw was finally apprehended by law enforcement. The pacing is craftily done, creating a slow-burn atmosphere in which the audience gets to know, sometimes in detail, the circumstances surrounding many of the crimes committed by Bulger and his band of hoodlums.

part-time employee with Foundry BMX and Board Shop, a business that was formerly established on Fry Street in the 80s, and would become a mechanic for several different motor shops around Denton County, becoming proficient with maintaining and modifying motor vehicles. He would make his way into the hairstyling business years later with his wife, Jennifer Johnston, a former cosmetologist with Supercuts on Avenue C for over 10 years. “There was a pretty wild party on Fry back in the day, where I met my wife,” Johnston said. “Over the years, we realized working as an hourly, part-time employee is a complete ripoff and that we wanted to do something special.” After Jennifer decided she was burnt out from her days as a part-time staff member, the two began trimming hair on their own from their guest house out in Bolivar, Texas. The couple would eventually make an effort to extend their home business out of the rural side of Denton
County and into the heart of Denton downtown by securing a barber’s chair in the bed of Zach’s truck. They eventually found the old Matco truck he uses now, and Zach would spend four months renovating it into their shared vision of a full-fledged barbershop on wheels. Although the shop has been open for only two months, the emporium has seen no shortage of customers. Originally implementing an appointmentbooking system, the congested agenda and demand became too overwhelming. Customers can now visit on a whim, provide their phone number and receive a text from the shop when it’s time for their session. Staff barber Gary Barnhart prefers the system to the standard booking system used by cosmetology chains. “It’s all friendly and casual,” Barnhart said. “We’re not a corporation, but a place for you to experience what visiting a barber is really like.” The Emporium features products found from around the
globe and several from Reuzel Pomade, a classic barbershop based out of Rotterdam, Holland. It also serves as a guiding paradigm for its own acclaimed business. “Along with Reuzel, you can find anything over Instagram,” Barnhart said. “With the wide variety of beard oils, brushes and combs you see in our shop, we really want to maintain the traditional vibe.” The Johnstons hope the traveling groom parlor will provide an easily-accessible, traditional experience of personal grooming. Customers have the opportunity to light up a cigar perched upon the classic barber chair on the hardwood floor while sipping on a glass of whiskey. The Emporium also implements a trading-andbartering system if customers wish to compensate for services beyond monetary means. Customers can proposition handmade products, offer services or anything of apparent value. “The ‘Bearded Lady’ loves to dabble in the practice of
Grooming products at the beard emporium come from national and international vendors.

If you know of anybody who has a female goat, we’ll do way more than just cut your hair.”
The Johnstons have seen their passion for traditional hair grooming compile itself in what they call a “snowball” of success, and they eventually hope to expand with traveling emporiums in regions of
California, Colorado and all over the nation. “The past two months of being in business have only exceeded our expectations,” Johnston said. “Even though we’ve gotten a few too many people thinking we’re
ARTS
Rising from the ashes: A Creative Art Studio returns to the local scene By Kayleigh Bywater Senior Staff Writer @kayleighnic0le
When A Creative Art Studio owner Robin Huttash rushed to her storefront on March 15, 2015, she was not met with an array of eager customers or local artists. Instead, firefighters were running back and forth, smoke seeped out the windows and anxious onlookers stood by, watching the commotion. Now, six months later, Huttash gently places an art piece on the freshly painted walls of the redesigned studio. After going through inspection delays, dealing with insurance companies and jumping through various hoops, Huttash is finally prepared to reopen her studio on Oct. 2 and be a part of the Denton Square community once more. “The thing that hit me was everyone’s art that I was responsible for could potentially
be ruined,” Huttash said. “It was my responsibility to give peoples’ art pieces a safe gallery to be in.” Huttash said she has always had an interest in art and initially decided to open up her studio in 2009. Huttash’s studio provides opportunities for local artists to display and sell their works and also holds various art classes for different age groups. “I think just the idea of disappointing the artists was challenging for me,” she said. “Their work is on show for people to come and see, and all of a sudden it’s just gone and stored away.” Although Huttash is looking forward to reopening her studio, she said the process has been a long and arduous one. She said because the ceiling had to be replaced and new support beams had to be added, she does not have as much room to hang pieces. Many light fixtures and
displays were also damaged during construction, so she is finding new ways to set up certain aspects of the shop. Because of the damage, Huttash was required to get her 100-yearold building up to code and acquire new permits in order to begin construction and work on the shop. She did not go through the journey alone, however. “A friend of mine started a GoFundMe account to help me with insurance deductibles,” Huttash said. “Some other friends have been helping me financially or emotionally, telling me that they miss me and want me to open back up as quickly as I can. I’ve had a lot of community support.” One person who has helped Huttash is local gift shop owner Traci Davis. “When the fire happened, I didn’t know Robin too well,” Davis said. “But I wanted to give her a place in the back of my store

to continue her classes.” Davis, who owns Garden Gate on the downtown Square, said she didn’t have to think twice about helping her neighbor out during the process of reopening. “If something happened to me, I would hope someone would help me out, so I felt like I really wanted to help her in any way she needed,” Davis said. “Our community sticks together.” Huttash said family, friends and the community have played a role in reopening the store and keeping her grounded as well. Whether it was having some downtime with her 2-year-old granddaughter Betty, working alongside friends who would assist her in construction through the night or participating in public events such as the Denton Arts and Jazz Festival and the community market, Huttash said she received an unreal amount of support. “I think having so many people
willing to step up and help her really gives her validation that she is an important, loved part of this community,” friend and volunteer Debby Whitworth said. “People need to understand that the Square goes beyond what is directly on the Square.” When Huttash opens back up, she said she plans on running the studio in the same way she had before the fire. She said she is still going to showcase local artists and musicians, as well as continue her art classes for kids and adults. Additionally, Huttash said she would still participate in First Friday Denton, a “harvest” of Denton’s local art, which is why she decided to open this Friday. “I really questioned whether or not I had enough in me to create a business again, but I felt like I was always supposed to be here and create my studio,” Huttash said. “My slogan is ‘putting art in the heart of Denton,’ and I feel like
that’s exactly what I want to do, even after being away for so long.” She has been able to add some new perks to her studio, including track lighting, a hot water system and a new hanging system for pieces. “I never thought a fire in my studio would happen to me, because I’ve just always felt lucky,” Huttash said. “In many respects, though, I am still lucky, because honestly, it could have been much worse.” Although the two weeks she thought it would take to get her studio back turned into six months, Huttash said she was grateful to even have a standing building and the opportunity to recreate the studio she loved in a community she had so much respect for. “I could have lost everything,” Huttash said. “I’m lucky, and so is the studio, because I get a second chance and I still get to continue this journey.”

TOWARD THE FINISH LINE

Senior runner Troy Taylor leading Men’s Cross Country team to the national stage
CROSS-COUNTRY CONTINUED FROM PAGE 1 made him aware of his intentions Approaching graduation from Northwest High School in Justin, Texas, Taylor said colleges across the nation approached him. One of those was North Texas, though he admits the Mean Green was not his top choice. “I started taking visits, UNT called and offered me a scholarship, and I really didn’t want to come here at all actually,” Taylor said “I had a terrible mindset. I was looking at bigger named schools, like top schools in the nation, and they were contacting me.” On his visit, former head coach Carl Sheffield walked Troy around the facilities and
to coach a high-caliber team that the university was lacking at the time. Taylor said the visit completely changed his perspective. “We walked out to the track, and he was showing me the stadium. And he said that we can do great things here, and ‘I want you to help us to change the track and cross country program,’” Taylor said. “And that changed my mind. I thought, ‘You know, they may not be the best program at the moment, but I want to go there and help them become something.’” While Sheffield is no longer the head coach, the team is at
its best since joining Conference USA in 2013. The Mean Green is ranked No. 3 in the South Central region behind the University of Arkansas, who is ranked No. 15 nationally, and the University of Texas at Austin. Current head coach Stefanie Slekis was hired during Taylor’s sophomore year in 2013. A head coaching change can be arduous to some athletes, but Taylor embraced the change and immediately contacted his new coach. “The week it was announced, Troy was one of the first to reach out to me,” Slekis said. “He actually picked me up in his car and showed me where the team
trained. Our relationship started on a great note. We are both competitors, and we see eye to eye on his goals as well as those of the team.” When asked about those goals, Taylor did not mince words. “Nationals,” Taylor said. “As a team.” Running is typically seen as an individual sport, but at the end of the season, an individual can only go as far as the team takes them. Taylor said he and his teammates will do anything to accomplish their goals. “We like to think of it as we are going to war. We are going out there toeing the line together,” Taylor said. “A lot of people
think that you are going out there by yourself, but it’s a team sport because you are scoring together. If I am busting my ass running to exhaustion, you are going to be running to exhaustion.” One of his teammates who can help attain that goal is senior Bryce McAndrew, who has been running with Taylor since they were freshmen. “When I was younger, Troy would beat me by quite a bit,” McAndrew said. “Now it’s closer because he gives us a lot of confidence racing with him. He always races well and that motivates us as a whole. When we run as a group. We wait for Troy to make his move. And we
are going to do everything we can to keep up when he does.” The Mean Green has two more competitions before the C-USA championships, then conclude the season with the NCAA South Central Regionals on Nov. 13. But as Taylor looked around campus at his classmates passed by, he wondered why his team isn’t in the conversation to take its game to the next level. “Why not nationals?” Taylor asked. “It’s not going to be easy but we all believe we can get there. If you are looking at rankings, it’s possible. Anything is possible. It’s cheesy sure, but whatever. Anything is possible.”

Students get in the game with Madden tournament By Reece Waddell Senior Staff Writer @ReeceTapout15
Go for the tie, or go for the win? It’s a decision almost every football coach has faced at one point or another.
After scoring a touchdown to pull his team to within a point in the waning seconds, kinesiology senior Christian Harley faced the same decision. He opted to go for the twopoint conversion. But Harley was unsuccessful. A hard-fought championship round in

the Madden 16 tournament was over, eight hours and several games later. “No guts, no glory,” Harley said. “I was either going to come out a winner or come out a loser. No regrets. It was a good game.” Harley was one of many North Texas students to take part in the most recent Pohl Recreational Center’s intramural video game tournament. Every six to eight weeks, the rec will host various video game tournaments, ranging from FIFA to Call of Duty, and most recently Madden. Popularity for the video game contests has grown in the recent years, with each event averaging around 30 students, depending upon the game. Assistant director of intramural sport clubs Billy Mathew said there is a wide variety of students who participate, from novices to aspiring professionals. “There’s a pretty good mix of players that come in,” Mathew said. “A lot of them aren’t that serious and just want to have a good time. But don’t get me wrong, there are also guys that come in and are super serious and want to win.” Tournaments are single elimination and played using the default settings of each game. The only element subject to change is the length of the game, which can be adjusted if the competition is running ahead or behind. Kinesiology junior Akon Ebong,
who defeated Harley in the final round of the most recent Madden tournament, said time played a factor in the championship bout. “They actually had us on threeminute quarters,” Ebong said. “We had been there since four in the afternoon, and it was going on midnight. So what ended up happening was we only got one possession each, and that affects how you play the game.” Ebong said there are other strategies and nuances competitive Madden players utilize that the average player may not think about. For instance, many gamers will pick teams that may not be as popular but are effective in a video game because of certain roster characteristics. The Buffalo Bills and New York Jets were popular choices throughout the tournament, largely in part to their stout defenses and effective offensive lines. “It just depends on your style of play,” Ebong said. “I like good defenses and fast running backs. A lot of people think the Patriots or Seahawks might be the best choice, but sometimes they aren’t.” Harley said there are a few unspoken rules he and other gamers try to abide by to keep the game fair. The most common is not playing with the highest rated team, which in this year’s edition of the game is the Seattle Seahawks, which own a rating of 92 overall. “Honestly, if you pick the Seahawks or whoever the best
team is, people just sort of roll their eyes,” Harley said. “Because they’re so much better, it doesn’t take a lot of skill to win with them. That said, I beat two guys who used the Seahawks. But it’s something I just generally like to stay away from.” All tournaments are played on the PlayStation 4 console and have live, updated rosters. Mathew said the reason behind choosing PlayStation over Xbox came down to money. “PlayStation doesn’t charge for their online services,” Mathew said. “Xbox does, so it would make it even harder for me to go and get the most update rosters. And a lot of guys want that. They want the latest rosters to play with.” Winning a tournament through the rec center comes with its rewards: an intramural championship T-shirt and a copy of the game for PlayStation 4. Ebong said he was elated winning the title, but the copy of Madden for PS4 did him no good. “That is one thing I wish they would change,” Ebong said. “I have an Xbox, so the PS4 copy was completely useless to me. I feel like they should have both copies available to let the winner choose from. I gave my copy to a friend who had a PS4.” For now, playing the tournaments will continue to be something Harley and Ebong do just for amusement. Both said although it takes skill to be able to play the game, neither would consider it a real sport.
“It takes knowledge of playing the game, knowing what plays to run and clock management,” Harley said. “But at the end of the day, it’s just a game. Unless you’re doing this professionally and putting food on the table, I wouldn’t call it a sport. My girlfriend gives me crap all the time for playing in these, but I enjoy it.”

Freshman offensive lineman towering over expectations during freshman season By Alex Lessard Staff Writer @alexlikechexmix

Last year, scouts from across the country gathered at Coppell High School in search of fivestar talent. One under-the-radar prospect caught their eyes before even taking a step on to the field. Measured at 6’9, 360 pounds, freshman offensive lineman Jordan Murray is by far the largest player on the North Texas roster. When Murray first arrived for summer camp, players and coaches were shocked at how small he made everyone else look, including junior offensive lineman Kaydon Kirby. “The first time you meet him, you look up at him and he makes you feel like a kid,” Kirby said. Murray’s massive frame helped him garner attention from across the country. After going through the pros and cons of each of his collegiate options, Murray initially made a verbal commitment to San Diego State University. But the opportunity to change his mind still remained, and Mean Green head coach Dan McCarney was determined to convince Murray that North Texas was the right place to be. “For a while in the recruiting process, he wanted to get as far away from Denton, Texas, as he could,” McCarney said. “As time when on, I think he realized it might be best just to stay close to home and be close to family.” North Texas was Murray’s last college visit, spending an entire weekend touring campus and team facilities with family. On other visits, coaches talked about playing Murray at guard rather than at tackle, his most natural position. At North Texas, offensive line coach Mike Simmonds told Murray he could
have a chance to start at left tackle as a freshman. “He puts people in the [NFL],” Murray said of his position coach. “That’s my goal. Those are my aspirations. That’s what I want to do. I felt like this was a place I could make an immediate impact.” Despite being ranked as a three-star recruit and the No. 15 offensive tackle in Texas by Scout.com, Murray came into camp buried behind veterans on the depth chart. He continued to work hard, learned the playbook quickly and impressed coaches enough to be named the starting left tackle for the first home game of the season against Rice University. The coaching staff however has not stuck with the same starting lineup on either side of the ball through the first three games, especially on the offensive line. McCarney said the left tackle battle between Murray and senior offensive lineman Michael Banogu will likely continue throughout the season, and playing time will be determined on a week-to-week basis. “[Murray’s] maturity is way beyond his age, along with his length, toughness and grit,” McCarney said. “He hates to get beat and he’s coachable. Those are all great things when you’re looking at offensive linemen.” Murray spent time at both ends of the line in high school, but has always felt most comfortable protecting his quarterback at left tackle. “I like the pressure knowing the quarterback is depending on me,” Murray said. “It’s his blindside. He’s not looking that way. He’s got to trust that I got his back.” While blocking faster and stronger edge rushers than what he saw in high school has been
VOLLEYBALL
a tough transition, Murray has also had to adjust to college life off the field. Finding time for football, class and sleep has been a struggle, but the folks at Victory Hall have made things a little easier for him. Murray was given the special seven-foot bed so his legs don’t dangle off the edge. Murray has been ducking through doors and cramming into school desks all his life, but something unexpected always seems to creep up on him. Murray said he constantly has to look out for his surroundings, especially after a recent run-in with a tree branch. “Usually the average person would walk right under it, but it just hit me right in the face,” Murray said. Since taking his first snaps in peewee football as a fifth grader, Murray has always set his expectations high. With the confidence of an entire coaching staff and a positive support system, Murray now has his mind set on leaving a legacy. “When his career is over, god willing he stays healthy, I think he’s got a chance to be one of the best offensive linemen this school has ever had,” McCarney said.
Volleyball has North Texas roots beyond university Clay Massey Staff Writer @Clay_FC
North Texas volleyball coach Andrew Palileo does not have to travel far to find talent for his team. The Dallas-Fort Worth area is home to a plethora of volleyball talent, many of which come from his own club team. Nine of the Mean Green’s 16 volleyball players on the roster come from within an hour and a half radius of their base in Denton. Palileo attributes this to the talent in Texas. “If you look at a lot of the big Texas school’s rosters, you’ll see a lot of them are made up of Texas players,” Palileo said. “We don’t have to go far to find our talent.” Numbers seem to back up Palileo’s statement. The University of Texas at Austin, the only nationally ranked school in the state at No. 3, features 11 players from Texas. Seven of those players come within the same hour and a half radius of Denton. Freshman outside hitter Hannah Shaw is from Joshua, Texas, which is about an hour and eighteen minute drive from Denton. Shaw was a homeschool student in Joshua and was contacted by former assistant coach Al Givens, who was part of Ken Murczek’s staff in his time coaching at North Texas from 2010 to 2012. “Murczek recruited me from North Texas to try and play for Wake Forest,” Shaw said. “I knew North Texas through him, but I was offered on the very first phone call I had with Palileo.” College programs find homeschooled players like Shaw by scouting club volleyball teams, since most volleyball players play high school volleyball along with club ball. “When we’re recruiting a kid we like to watch them in high school and in club,” Palileo said. “Anytime we get the opportunity to watch the high school games, since our seasons are at the same time, we try to get out there during the high school matches.” Palileo himself is a club volleyball coach. As head coach of North Point Volleyball Club, he uses many of his players from North Texas as coaches as well. Two players who are now on the North Texas roster came through the North Point system: freshmen McKenzie Christopher and Alyvia Palileo, both alumni of Denton Guyer High School. Christopher was very adamant in choosing North Texas to continue her athletic and academic career.
“I didn’t really look at any other school for volleyball other than UNT,” Christopher said. “Playing for Palileo on North Point got me familiar with UNT and the way he coaches. I stuck with him for two years and then he offered me a spot on the team.” Christopher, a fashion merchandising freshman, was impressed by the university’s program for her degree. Even being so close to home, Christopher is getting the full college experience, partially because he lives on campus. “It’s like I’ve created my own little world down here,” said Christopher. “By UNT it’s a whole different world. We never really went over that way living here, and my parents are far enough away that I only see them once a week or when they come to my games. I kind of wanted to go out of state, but I enjoyed playing under Coach Palileo.” The North Point Volleyball Club has members Palileo hopes to bring up and be a part of his plans with North Texas in the future. “You try to run the club to hopefully one day have one of the players come and make an impact on your college team,” Palileo said. “That’s why you do it.”

by adding what would be another version of the U Centre apartment building does nothing to alleviate the problem – it only makes it worse. In the case of relocating Voertman’s to an unspecified location and casting a shadow over Big Mike’s Coffee, the situation involves too many negatives for it to proceed without providing any real solutions. If there is any hope of responsibly handling the growth of the university, the parking situation on and around campus should be handled by the university and city officials before this company invades this high-traffic area. Apart from the fact Hickory Street is in dire need of repaving from Bonnie Brae to where it meets the Denton Square, adding more cars with frustrated, aimless drivers doesn’t seem to be the solution to overcrowding. We need parking spaces, not more student housing.

He just wants to make money, and he’s trying to convince the community that his complex will help the community. King’s perspective on the needs of those at UNT is of a purely business sense and does nothing to alleviate the situation of minimal parking and overcrowding. To attract more students and not even provide enough parking spaces for those who choose to live there is in fact making the problem worse and a recipe for disaster.
