CAMPUS GOVERNMENT

SGA to hold funded organizations accountable Dawaelyne Jones, Student Government Association director for student affairs, wants to hold campus organizations more accountable for the money they receive from SGA’s Eagle’s Nest Fund. The Eagle’s Nest Fund, appropriated by SGA, was set up to provide student organizations with additional funding for campus-wide events. Under Jones’ plan, SGA members would attend campus events hosted by Eagle’s Nest-funded organizations. Jones then evaluates if an event was organized thoroughly, produced decent turnout and served students with educational or recreational purposes. If the student government determines the group has not put on a worthwhile event, Jones said this could influence SGA’s decision on whether to approve funding should the organization re-apply for Eagle’s Nest money. “If they put up an event that goes against everything that they said in the Eagle’s Nest meeting, and it’s something that wasn’t needed or wasn’t planned correctly, I feel like that’s something that I need to be held accountable for on my part too,” Jones said. Every year, the Eagle’s Nest Fund provides $60,000 ($30,000 per semester) to organizations SGA said must carry out their vision of the event proposed to

Ed Reynolds’ relationship with UNT dates back to when he began as a full-time student in 1995 and worked as a parking assistant, circulating campus and handing out parking tickets. In 1994, he began working for the UNT Police Department as an officer. He became the deputy chief of police in 1999. Now, 16 years later, he’s the chief of police. When he’s not policing a university community he’s known all his life, he spends his time just 20 miles north of Denton, in Tioga, tending to cattle at Reynold’s Ranch. A leisurely day outside of the office can begin as early as 5 a.m. and span as late as 10 p.m. The second-generation police officer and fourth-generation rancher finds both the labor and opportunity to spend time with family therapeutic. “Running my cattle operation is my downtime,” Reynolds said. “At this level of work, you stay at a heightened awareness, because at any moment, something can change. [Ranching] is a sort of busy work that calms you down.” This guides him through the colder seasons, when a shortage of grass and a herd of livestock huddles against the opening gate in anticipation of feed when they would otherwise be content. It’s that calm that has guided him through policy and safety discussions over campus carry.

TIMELINE

When the Campus Carry Taskforce conducted its hearings last month on how to deal with campus carry, some in the crowds pressured the UNT police, suggesting that a campus gunman could easily overtake students and faculty going to class at Discovery Park. But during interviews with students at Discovery Park, many revealed they feel safe. As the university establishes its campus carry policy, the UNT Police Department will review its patrol routines. Police Lt. David Owen said one officer per shift is assigned to patrol Discovery Park, and that will likely continue when concealed handgun owners begin carrying their weapons in August 2016. Additionally, there are campus security guards at Discovery Park. “I always feel safe here and never felt like I was in danger or anything,” electrical engineer senior Eric White said. Professor Robert Renka, who has taught at UNT since 2009, said he felt safe at Discovery Park before and now that campus carry will be allowed. “I’m not overly concerned. As long as they’re licensed to carry, then they’re welcome in my classroom,” Renka said. Owen said the concern for

For 365 days a year, seven days a week, 24 hours a day, the KNTU 88.1 jazz radio station airs local music, sports updates, news and special programs. Behind the airwaves, student volunteers and staffers work as many as seven days a week to keep material airing. It’s a service that never closes. “It’s magic, but magic that someone obviously knows how to do,” said Jeffry Eckels, a UNT alumnus and professional jazz musician. “I’m mind-boggled

about what goes on here.” It takes many moving parts to get things going, KNTU general manager Russ Campbell said. “If any of them stop moving we could have a potential meltdown.” From midnight to 6 a.m., a list of scheduled material airs. But one mistake in scheduling could mean 30 seconds of dead air, leading to Mark Lambert getting a call in the middle of the night.

Kerestine, Dillard share similar paths to Mean Green stardom By Alex Lessard Staff Writer @alexlikechexmix Having one star athlete shatter school records on a yearly basis doesn’t happen too often. But North Texas has two. Volleyball outside hitter Carnae Dillard and soccer goalkeeper Jackie Kerestine, both seniors, have experienced eerily similar career paths in their times at North Texas. Each of them earned a starting spot during their freshman seasons and blew away expectations. Three years later, coaches, players and fans have

learned not to expect anything other than dominance. “The only thing I really wanted coming into this was to play. I didn’t want to sit on the bench,” Kerestine said. “I put all my time and effort into making sure I was the starter. With starting, everything just fell into place.” The duo’s trophy shelves are certainly nearing capacity now. Kerestine holds every goalkeeping record possible at North Texas, including goals-against-average, save percentage and shutouts. This season she became the first goalkeeper in North Texas history to collect both

300 saves and 50 wins. Dillard has also established herself as a North Texas great, becoming the school’s all-time attacks leader and sitting in the top three in kills and attacks. She’s received first team allconference honors in every season and was named the Conference-USA player of the year as a junior. Through the years, taking on a bigger role and becoming a leader has been one of the most valuable aspects of their games from a coaching perspective. After coming to North Texas as part of a five-player freshmen class, Dillard is the only senior on this year’s roster. Despite

By Chad Robertson Staff Writer @chadr0b With a little help from jazz-funk musician Toshi Clinch, hip-hop artist Thani Abuhamad is advancing his musical prowess. Clinch, a 21-year-old jazz studies senior, wanted to push his funk band UFO out of its comfort zone. So he called up Abuhamad, 20, in June and pitched his idea to collaborate on some new pieces of music. “UFO is comprised of some of the best musicians I’ve gotten the chance to work with,” Abuhamad said. “These guys are able to add things and change things to my original music, to mold it in a way that I couldn’t do alone.” Collaboration between UFO and Abuhamad is well underway after the hip-hop artist finished up some new tracks in the summer. Now they’re putting in over 100 hours of rehearsal to finish their album, “Response,” in the spring of 2016. “Every week has changed where the album will end up and what it will accomplish,” Abuhamad said. “We just know we are making a product that is capable and worthy of being as professional as possible.” Abuhamad said after returning from a month-long visit to his parent’s native country of Lebanon a few years ago, he realized he needed to go back overseas to change the hip-hop scene in a positive way. “The hip-hop they listen to over there isn’t wrapped in the ideas of hope, peace and joy,”

New police chief settles in on UNT campus PEOPLE CONTINUED FROM PAGE 1

With more than 20 years of Denton residency, the police chief watched the university grow from an enrollment of less than 20,000 to the record enrollment of more than 37,000 this fall. He characterized both the university and Denton as highly energetic. “Even on weekends there’s constantly activity happening, so we have to make sure we’re properly staffed for all the people in and around campus,” Reynolds said. “The work is constantly changing and evolving, and you can never anticipate what’s going to happen the next day.” Although his initial plan after graduation was to seek employment somewhere outside of Denton, Reynolds was promoted beyond the parking department to a police officer. He eventually rose in rank within law enforcement and chose to continue his tenure at UNT. “There was no time after I got on with the police department that I had intentions of going anywhere else,” Reynolds said. “There’s no other department I’d rather work for. I love the young environment. This is not a sleepy, tired neighborhood.” With his new position of leadership, Reynolds has emphasized a focus of increased law enforcement interaction with the UNT community beyond routine patrols and calls. The police chief has been visiting with several campus organizations, including Student Government Association and the Faculty Senate, on a one-on-one basis to establish more transparent and friendly relations. Faculty senate officer Guido Verbeck has collaborated with local law enforcement as a forensic scientist, and has often had to work alongside Reynolds. Through their combined efforts on

campus and with Denton County over the years, Verbeck has established a comfortable perception of who Reynolds is as a law enforcer and a person. “When you’re a part of a university police force, you have to deal with two main things: citizens and students,” Verbeck said. “It isn’t always easy juggling them, but by the type of person he is, Ed has the work ethic to handle them very well.” Verbeck mentioned the need to be trustworthy and said he doesn’t think the UNT police could have picked a better chief. “It takes the ability to bridge the gap of connecting with the student body easily, as well as enforcing the law, and Reynolds does both extremely well,” Verbeck said. There have been instances of high pressure as an officer, but what Reynolds found most valuable were the times he changed tires for drivers who didn’t know how or when restaurant servers scribe a simple “thanks for all you do” at the bottom of receipts. Reynolds ultimately attributes the joy he garners from his duty to the “small things.” In spite of the instinct to become the intensely sharp and alert officer most citizens expect, the UNT police chief said his guiding goal is to push the department to hone transparency and approachability moving forward. “I don’t want us to always be the reactionary piece upon incidents and calls,” Reynolds said. “I want us to lead the way in areas of crime prevention and making the campus a better place. It doesn’t always have to be a criminal case that we’re involved in.” When broaching the subject of the

Ed Reynolds was named UNT police chief on Nov. 1, 2015 after working for the UNT department for more than 20 years and serving as interim chief since June. Hannah Ridings | Senior Staff Photographer contemporary criticisms of police brutality, Reynolds acknowledged events like the shooting of Trayvon Martin and death of Freddie Gray as tragedies committed by irresponsible police officers. Overall, Reynolds believes that police enforcement has advanced over the years in spite of such events, which he referred to as tragedies, but said policing has matured over the years. The police chief noted the requirement of all officers to wear body cameras and to behave in a professional manner that will ensure “good customer service.” UNT police began wearing the cameras in April. “There have been bad officers who haven’t maintained the standards we expect here,” Reynolds said. “But at the end of the day, sometimes we have to take people to jail and write tickets, and it’s not necessarily the fun part of the

job, but it’s the necessary part.” Police Lt. West Gilbreath, an investigator, has worked with Reynolds for more than 15 years. He spoke positively of his new chief and said he sees the staff moving forward and building upon the high standards they’ve already set upon themselves with Reynolds at the helm. “In the 15 years I’ve worked with chief Reynolds, I’ve learned that he’s very acute to details and little issues that make all the difference,” Gilbreath said. Beyond the title of UNT police chief, Gilbreath described Reynolds as straightforward, an effective communicator and an honest part of the staff built by hard labor. “It was only natural he’d become police chief either here or somewhere else,” Gilbreath said. “He’s the hardestworking person in this department.”

the Eagle’s Nest Committee. This displays trustworthiness for future funding. Jones, when asked, said he feels every Eagle’s Nestfunded group “has used funds correctly.” He pointed to one fraternity specifically, Beta Upsilon Chi, for its use of the money. SGA gave the Christian fraternity funds for Grave Rave, a free campus-wide event the day before Halloween. The multi-thousand dollar event was cancelled this fall because of inclement weather after three months of planning and coordination with almost 10 different UNT departments and three companies off of campus. Beta Upsilon Chi’s vice president, John Michael Davis, said the energy and money spent helped establish the groundwork for future Grave Raves. “We knew we were going to need some extra outside funding because the cost can build up rather quickly,” Davis said. “It wasn’t God’s will for it to go down this fall, but we are very pleased with the new relationships formed from the planning stages and the hype Grave Rave generated.”

The fraternity planned on hosting hundreds of students after promoting the event through social media, flyers, ads and personal organization invitations. Next year, the event will be indoors. Eagle Peer Recovery used its funds to help UNT host the third annual North Texas Recovery Conference by making 20 page programs for them. From Sept. 23 to 25, the conference gathered students, staff and health professionals to address and solve alcohol and substance misuse issues through sessions and workshops. Shawn Seamus Riley, the president of Eagle Peer Recovery, which was founded three years ago, believes the conference attracts attention for UNT’s umbrella Collegiate Recovery Program. That program has inspired colleges like the University of Texas and Texas Tech to revamp their own recovery programs. “We’re doing something that no other school has ever done, and that’s building a program from the ground up with students in mind,” Riley said. “Starting the conference every year shows us what we’ve accomplished and what we’re looking forward to.”

like they need to go out and drink or do some kind of substance,” Riley said. “Now we’re being able to show our members that we do fun stuff.”

potential violence of an active shooter is valid, but people shouldn’t connect it with CHL holders. “Statistics show it would be very unlikely that there’d be a CHL holder that would be committing an active shooter situation,” Owen said. “There [are] 36,000 people on campus, and only a few hundred at one time can potentially be carrying under the concealed handgun license laws. Those are the people who are exceedingly law abiding.” The university offers training and resources to learn about what to do in the case of an active shooter. Owen said UNT police teach the model, “get out, hide out or take out.” People should “get out” if they are far enough from the situation that they can escape. They should “hide out” or create a barricade if they are close enough to where they can’t leave, but aren’t directly involved, and “take out” the shooter by protecting themselves or disengaging the other person. Owen said the UNT police, Denton police and the fire department have training and meetings to work together to create a frame of reference for an extreme emergency situation. “I don’t feel unsafe,” computer science junior Samuel Evans said. “I feel, in Denton, fairly safe actually in general. I’ve never really had a problem with it.” Police officers and campus security officers work together for an overall security plan for campus. Campus security

Despite the relaxed security presence at Discovery Park, students still say they feel safe.

Campus security officers are always present at Discovery Park, Owen said. In the case of an emergency, they would call for backup from the UNT police over the

radio. Discovery Park building hours are 6 a.m. through midnight. Electrical engineering graduate Madhuri Chinthakindi said she often stays late at Discovery Park to work on projects, and she doesn’t think adding more security or police is necessary. “I was working until midnight in the Discovery Park lab, but there were no buses,” Chinthakindi said. “I called the Discovery Park emergency buses, so they picked me up, and my friend. It was in the middle of the night, so I feel like it is absolutely safe if people stay until midnight.” Some students at campus carry meetings were concerned about the distance between UNT police and Discovery Park. Owen said they can’t measure the response time because officers are patrolling and aren’t at the station when calls come in. “We know it’s about four and a half miles from here to there,” Owen said. “They’re going to respond as quickly as possible.” The Denton police handle all 9-1-1 calls, where they can then transfer the call to UNT police if it pertains to the university. In an extremely dangerous event, Denton police and Denton County sheriffs will be the first to respond and would send officers, and then UNT police would be notified.

Texas voters approve seven amendments Texans passed all seven proposed constitutional amendments Thursday, adding to the more than 100-page Texas Constitution, which is the third longest in the U.S. The vote puts the number of amendments to 490.

Proposition one received 86 percent support, proposition two 91 percent, propositions three 66 percent, proposition four 69 percent, proposition five 83 percent, proposition six 81 percent and proposition seven 83 percent. Texans added $2.5 billion to the highway fund, addressing the growing infrastructural problem in the state.

DOROTHY BLAND

In response to ‘Walking while black’ By Dalton LaFerney News Editor @daltonlaferney Since Mayborn dean Dorothy Bland wrote a guest column detailing her encounter with two Corinth police officers, people online have been divided. Some say Bland exaggerated, there are those who have come to her defense and many praise the officers for their work, but one thing is certain: the Internet is talking about it. Thousands online have written and commented about Bland’s column across all platforms, reported internationally by the news media. The dash camera footage that was posted to YouTube had more than 90,000 views. Because of her role as a dean of a journalism school, some say she has set a poor example to the students. UNT has written two Facebook posts, urging the campus community to form its own opinion on Bland’s claims. The university said she “attached her title to her personal column,” however, Bland did not mention her affiliation with the university in her own writing. The Dallas Morning News tagged it as an author’s note. UNT moved to separate itself from Bland’s column, although UNT spokeswoman Margarita Venegas said Bland has not violated university policy with her column. But some people want her to be fired. As of Wednesday, a petition calling for the dean’s removal had nearly 3,700 endorsers. The authors said Bland embarrassed the UNT community, particularly the student body. In response to Bland’s column, the chief of the Corinth Police Department, Debra Walthall, wrote that her officers acted as they were supposed to in the encounter with Bland. A dozen columnists have written about it, too. And so has Mayborn

professor Samra Bufkins. “It’s easy for us whites to claim somebody is playing the race card or trying to get attention when there are unpleasant encounters between black citizens and white law enforcement officers,” she wrote, “But none of us have multigenerational experience with the suspicion and discrimination targeted at many blacks and other people of color in our society.” Ron Kirk, the former mayor of Dallas, revealed his frustration that Bland wrote the column, because he said the police encounter “had nothing to do with” her skin color. “They stopped her for a very legitimate reason, to tell her to try to be a little smarter,” he said in a Q&A with The Dallas Morning News. “Nothing frustrates police more than women with headphones on, texting away. So much of what makes you unsafe is not using all of your senses regarding your surroundings.” Facebook user Matt Lollar wrote, “Teaching students to act like this is exactly why CNN and others are so bad at what they do now.” User Anthony V. Lombardi, who said he’s embarrassed to be a UNT alumnus, wrote, “It is a fabricated story where she tries to ruin the reputation of the police offers doing their job.” Brian Key Guan said he acknowledges both sides of the argument, on whether the police acted correctly, or if Bland should’ve written the column. “Nevertheless, can we please take a moment to understand and acknowledge the potential societal factors that may have led to her reaction?” he wrote on Facebook. “Let’s not underestimate the influence of past and present racism in our country.”

Autism center for all ages By Kayleigh Bywater Senior Staff Writer @kayleighbywater

Kevin Callahan, executive director of the Kristin Farmer Autism Center at UNT, originally had the idea to develop a comprehensive autism center in the 90s. Located across campus off South Interstate 35, the center provides autistic individuals with equal access to the services. “I have a family member with an intellectual disability, and when you grow up with that, you learn to appreciate individuals’ skills and talents in the world,” Callahan said. The center was established in 2012 and works to serve families in the community with a threefold mission: research, training and direct services.

Callahan said the KFAC could have up to half a dozen different autism research projects going at one time. “I feel it is important to be involved in research,” Callahan said. “There is always something new to discover or learn about.” The center’s annual conference, “Adventures in Autism,” raises awareness about new treatments and discoveries. The center also allows open counseling and training to those interested in gaining a deeper understanding of autism. “We strive to educate people,” director of intervention Susan Nichols said. “When you make an impact with one client, it causes a ripple effect. It impacts their families, their progress in school and the overall community. We work towards making meaningful steps in individuals’ lives and those involved in it.” The services include individualized one-on-one intervention, behavioral therapy, physical and occupational therapy, speech and language therapy and diagnostic and evaluation services. The center creates specific treatment plans for each client, and the treatments depend on individuals’ strengths and weaknesses. “We provide direct services across the spectrum and the lifespan,” associate executive

Behavioral interventionist Bailey Trousdale helps Thomas, a client of the center, build a foundation for his tower of blocks. Brittany Sodic | Staff Photographer director Heather Hughes said. “Our youngest client to date was 18 months old, and our eldest client is 52, so we create treatment plans based on individual needs. The scope and nature of the services vary from one client to the next.” Although the center has many different elements, Callahan said the staff learns just as much as the clients do. He said he’s grateful that there are so many people-even students--that are willing to come, help and learn at the

center as a group. “The center could not function without UNT students,” Callahan said. “Of the 90 people we have on staff, probably around 75 of those are students. They are eager and excited to work in this field, and by working at the center, it gears them up for the professional world.” Callahan said the work the staff does, whether they have a degree or are still going through school, makes a lasting impact on the lives of people

self-described “grammar Nazi” of the station, he reviews and edits the radio lineup and newscasts. “There’s a lot more work that goes into putting something on the air,” Lambert said. Despite the rigorous schedule, Lambert said he’s ready to help any student interested in a broadcasting career. The full-service radio station is held to industry standards and operated by 75 people. All but two are students. Named the “Best Radio Station” by D Magazine, it is a place for students interested in learning and getting involved, Campbell said. Media arts major Rhett Stubblefield has been able to pursue his passion for jazz music at KNTU. The 19-year-old picks every jazz song that airs on the station. “I get to put my own voice on air,” Stubblefield said. The jazz enthusiast said he receives anywhere from four to five dozen CDs a month from artists and radio promoters. From there, he has the task of listening to them and selecting and scheduling which music will air. “The most challenging part is trying to make everyone happy without breaking anyone’s heart,” Stubblefield said. But Stubblefield and program director Katy Hancock appreciate the opportunity to create with other people their age. “You can create yourself on air. You can create shows. You can write and you can create promos,” Hancock said. Media arts senior Alex Smith, host of KNTU’s show “Infrequent Exposure,” said she stays on top of all current local music in the Denton and Dallas-Fort Worth area. Like Stubblefield, Smith reviews and selects local music during the week and prepares it to air on Saturday from 7 to 9 p.m. “The fun thing about working in radio is no one’s a superstar,” Smith says. “Radio is not a thing where egos get in their way a lot.” With all of the work that goes into operating KNTU, the station has graduated a number of successful alumni, including the Dallas Mavericks play-byplay announcer Mark Followill and sports broadcaster George Dunham. “I know they work really, really hard here,” Eckels said. “They put in a ton of time to make this station run as efficiently as possible and make sure that the music gets out there.”

The reactions and impressions are why he wanted to bring the KFAC to life in the first place. “We had a Columbian client once, and one day I got a call from the parents,” Callahan said. “They were at an airport

and were thanking me over and over again while crying because this was the first time their child was able to get on a plane to see family, thanks to the center. They were so grateful, and it’s moments like those that I cherish so dearly.”

APP

regardless of whether or not users want to see or do them. The AiM app has features tailored to help users when they feel they might be slipping on their journey to a healthier lifestyle. For example, if someone is interested in losing weight, the app will offer a number of healthy dietary and fitness options. Users then decide what suggested options fit for them and which choices they think will benefit them the most. AiM also has an emergency button, where users can notify a family member, friend or sponsor and ask for help when they are feeling at the edge of relapse. The app’s website offers a multitude of information regarding the app’s functionality and featured components. Bressington, the app’s co-founder, works in Hong Kong conducting research with various patients, integrating the app into his studies to prove its effectiveness. He is also trying to get the app translated into Chinese to broaden its reach. Bressington has a doctorate in medication management and a background as a mental health nurse treating schizophrenic patients. He anticipates that the app can be used to better the health of those with schizophrenia, citing research that those with the disease have an increased chance of suffering from unhealthy weight gain, heart disease and depression. He also said patients with schizophrenia often die 15 to 20 years earlier than those without the disease. Bressington said he believes better disbursement of correct medications and a positive change in physical fitness can lead to prolonged life and healthier lifestyles for those with the disorder. “Harvey and I thought that if we could develop an app for the general public, then we could kind of tailor it and trim it down to suit certain patient groups in the future,” Bressington said. “We’re trying to establish a longerterm practice for research.” Though the app isn’t free – it is priced on Google Play and Apple’s app store at $3.13 – Wells said the purpose of the app reaches far beyond financial means. He is also using the app as part of his doctoral studies and said it looks to prove there is significant benefit in the use of apps as a means to break through behavioral changes and improvements in motivation. Additionally, Wells said he is looking to use the app as part of the long-term Eagle Peer Recovery Program at UNT. “It costs less than a beer, or a pack of cigarettes, and significantly less than a meal,” Wells said. “It’s about helping people to try and become motivated to change.”

Changing a lifestyle riddled with vices and distractions that cause harm and damage productivity can be difficult. Now there’s an app for that. Developed in part by one of UNT’s own doctoral candidates, the app is called AiM. Since October 2011, when discussion of development first began, British transfer doctoral student and adjunct Disability and Addiction Rehabilitation faculty member Harvey Wells worked tirelessly with his friend and colleague, Dr. Daniel Bressington, to develop an app that would help people struggling with motivation. Nearly four years and over $50,000 later, AiM was released to the public on Jan. 5. The app’s main focus is to empower users to motivate themselves and realize their own potential to change. “The idea is that people who struggle with addiction and mental health issues often have problems with motivation,” Wells said, “and the reason they continue to keep using [addictive substances like drugs and alcohol] is because they’re not motivated enough to change.” Wells has experience both as a psychologist and a clinician and said he believes that through this app, users can realize they have the intrinsic capability to change whatever they want about their own lifestyle. The user alone decides what he or she needs, and the app will supplement different information outlets, give helpful exercises and offer checkups to keep users on track. AiM is structured with several different categories of change, tailored to accommodate nearly any lifestyle. Categories include, but are not limited to, smoking, drinking, weight loss, drug use, prescription medicine abuse and work/life balance. Users select a category and compose their own plans of action. “People need to want to change before they change,” Wells said. “The user defines their own goal[s].” Wells said he has observed a lack of a personal aspect in apps similar to his, as they merely seem to throw information or tasks at the user,

Summit climbing gym brings bouldering to Denton By Julian Gill Denton Record-Chronicle @JulianGillMusic Summit Climbing, Yoga and Fitness Gym opened Monday at 220 W. Oak St., giving the local rock-climbing community a new place to work out. This is the gym’s fourth location in North Texas, but co-owner Stan Borodyansky is especially excited to open one in a familiar city. “My friends and I used to play hockey in Denton, and my brother graduated from UNT,” he said. “We saw the location off the Sqaure and we said, ‘This is perfect.’” While the Denton gym will be one of Summit’s smaller facilities, Borodyansky said the company has optimized the space by focusing it on bouldering — a type of rock climbing that does not require harnesses. The gym includes 15-foot competition-grade climbing walls and houses a separate yoga studio. The manager of the Denton location, Adam Hughes, said they deliberately chose to focus the gym on bouldering because it is one of the more social rock-climbing activities. “For us, we wanted to be a part of the Denton community,” Hughes said. “With bouldering, it’s a more social form of climbing because you’re not way high up, and a group of people can get into it together. Usually with bouldering gyms, there’s way more engagement with people that may normally not hang out together.” A day pass or a $50 monthly membership

Adam Hughes, Summit Gym’s Denton location manager Kristen Watson | DRC is needed to use the facility. Members have complete access to the climbing gym, yoga sessions and abdominal workouts at all four locations, which include Carrollton, Grapevine and Dallas. The Denton gym will also host several climbing competitions each year. After opening the first Summit gym in Grapevine in 2009 with his fellow coowners, Chris LoCrasto and Kyle Clinkscales, Borodyansky said the business now has more than 100 employees. It also has a competitive rock-climbing team, Team Texas, which has won 10 national competitions and produced more national and international champions than any other team in the country, Borodyansky said. Borodyansky has his own history of competitive climbing. He has won several national speed climbing awards and worked as an intern, assistant coach and consultant with the U.S. national climbing team. Despite his competitive background, Borodyansky said he wants the gym to be just as much of a recreational release as an outlet for competition. A few employees from West

Bouldering is one of the simplest forms of climbing and allows more climbers to climb at once in smaller spaces like the building Summit is in. Kristen Watson | DRC Oak Coffee Bar have already formed a recreational climbing team after going to the gym on opening day. “I was pretty impressed with how well put-together it was the first day,” said Nick Stevens, an employee at West Oak. “We’re a small business as well, and to see someone execute something that well on the first day is incredible.” Stevens said he and his wife have been a member of Summit for more than a year, and he is excited to finally have a gym right down the street. “The ability to get off work and not drive 30 minutes is pretty great,” Stevens said. “I’ll never have to leave Denton again.”

Local hip-hop artist, funk band collaborate on album

HIP HOP CONTINUED FROM PAGE 1

Abuhamad said. “God told me that I needed to go back to Lebanon so I could minister through music.” Abuhamad immersed himself in hip-hop after beat boxing with local rapper Princeton Marcellis in January 2014 at an open mic night on campus. Marcellis ended up inviting Abuhamad to go on tour with him, and the two performed around the country from March to September 2014. “I didn’t pick hip-hop,” Abuhamad said. “It picked me.” Now he and UFO spend their Tuesday and Thursday nights rehearsing for hours on end. The

passion in each musician’s face is clearly evident during rehearsals as they try to perfect each song. “In terms of college students, it’s impressive and crazy to think that we are able to do this,” Clinch said. The artists plan to finish rehearsing on Dec. 5, and they expect post-production and mixing to take an additional two months. Abuhamad and the band have high hopes for the album and have considered doing a few gigs at South By Southwest or submitting the album for a possible Grammy nomination.

“Our prospect isn’t so much on the distant future, but more on the here and now,” Abuhamad said. “We would love for this album to gain some speed so we could have opportunities after the release.” Abuhamad and the band are both anticipating that the album will affect their own careers. But Clinch said this is Thani’s album, and UFO is more like the “house band” playing in the background. “I told him from the get go that this is his thing,” Clinch said. “This is all his album.” Abuhamad said he is using this album as the base of his

portfolio for his professional music career and wants to be able to reflect on the album when coming up with new music. “My view is focused on moving to Lebanon after college and missioning there,” Abuhamad said. “This will be my official debut into the art world, and I’m trying to use this as much as a training experience as possible.”

DOMINATING THE NETS

the impact she’s made this season with little help, her leadership on the court took time to develop into what it is today. “I don’t really talk much on the court. I’m not a vocal leader,” Dillard said. “It was kind of hard for me to get out of my comfort zone, be more

vocal on the court and tell the girls that where I come from, we work for each other.” Turns out, Kerestine is the polar opposite. “I’m very vocal. Anything anyone ever knows about me is that I’m loud,” Kerestine said. “I know some of the other things I can’t do as well as the

other girls because I’m not a field player. So I try and do more of the vocal encouragement.” The skills Kerestine and Dillard have manufactured throughout their careers have helped their respective teams succeed year in and year out. Both teams have posted nothing but winning seasons since their arrivals, and both believe they have a great chance of making a deep tournament run in 2015. While volleyball finds itself in fourth place in the C-USA standings with just over a week remaining in the regular season, soccer became C-USA regular season champs for the second consecutive year. However, both teams will likely need to win their conference tournaments to have a shot at achieving their biggest goal: making the NCAA tournament. Because of their consistent success, North Texas soccer and volleyball often face extremely motivated teams looking to make a statement. Just three years after leaving the Sun Belt to join C-USA, the teams have established themselves as perennial contenders. “Everybody that has been in C-USA hates us because we’re newbies,” Kerestine said. “We come in and give them a run for their money. They want to beat us more than anything.” However, being on the opposite side of the spectrum is just as difficult. “Going into conference, there’s going to be some tough teams, but you can’t let them beat you just on their name alone,” Dillard said. To keep Dillard sharp during the final stretch of her career, volleyball head coach Andrew Palileo is always looking for new ways to motivate his star player. “The last couple weeks, I’ve tried to challenge her every day in practice in one area or another,” Palileo said. “I’m always trying to put a carrot in front of her or a goal in front of her to be better in certain areas.” Once their collegiate careers are over, Dillard and Kerestine both hope to play professionally either in the states or overseas. After that, they

plan on using their experiences from classes they’ve taken together at North Texas to start coaching in their hometowns. Even with future decisions looming, winning the C-USA tournament is the only thing on their minds right now. “I want this more than anything,” Kerestine said. “It’s now or never, honestly. It’s do or die.” The pressure is even more intense for Dillard, who will play the tournament in her hometown of San Antonio. “I want it even more because I have a whole bunch of people there watching,” Dillard said. “You got all the awards, but if you didn’t get a conference championship, what did you really do?”

SOCCER

Women’s basketball enters season with chip on shoulder North Texas By Brady Keane Staff Writer @BradyKeane3

Between being one of two teams to not make the Conference-USA tournament and the firing of head coach Mike Petersen, the 2014-2015 season was one to forget for the Mean Green women’s basketball team. But the team is entering a new era under new head coach Jalie Mitchell, who said she aims to bring pride, passion, resilience, discipline and excellence back to a struggling program. “All of those things are motivation on a daily basis to get to where we need to be as a team,” Mitchell said. “I hope they wake up thinking about it every day just like I do.” Mitchell is the all-time leading scorer in school history and is returning to her alma mater after the Mean Green finished its past season with a 5-24 record. North Texas has twice as many losses, 124, as wins, 57, dating back to the 2009-2010 season. But despite the recent struggles, Mitchell does not feel as though the rebuilding process will be lengthy. Since taking over in April, Mitchell has begun to change both the mindset and the culture of the team. “I think the first step has been to move forward,” Mitchell said. “We don’t talk a lot about previous seasons at all, and I think that’s important to leave that behind and focus on what we can do going forward.” Heading into this season, the Mean Green was picked to finish last in Conference USA by the league’s coaches in October. However, Mitchell has been in a similar situation at North Texas before. As an assistant coach under former head coach Karen Aston during the 2011-2012 season, Mitchell helped turn a five-win team into a 15-win team in less than a year. “This is not a place that I am foreign to,” Mitchell said. “Been there, done that, and I’m excited. We have more talent as far as weapons are concerned, and we have to play with a chip on our shoulder.”

One challenge many new coaching staffs face is getting the players to adjust into an entirely new system as quickly as possible. But so far, Mitchell is comfortable with how the Mean Green have bought into her program. “We have a coaching staff that is pushing us to the greatest of our ability and our potential,” junior guard Candice Adams said. “The progress is growing, and it’s definitely positive.” After averaging a C-USA worst 51.8 points per game last season, the Mean Green will turn towards an uptempo offensive approach that Mitchell feels will play to the strengths of the team. The offense will run behind the play of Adams, who is the highest returning scorer from last season following the graduation of BreAnna Dawkins and Briesha Wynn. Defensively, the team returns its leading rebounder from last season, senior Acheil Tac, who

was also the fifth highest scorer with 5.7 points per game. But the Mean Green will be missing last year’s third best rebounder and fourth highest scorer, Eboniey Jeter. The former forward was found dead in her dorm room in May, with the death later being ruled as a suicide. But despite losing a handful of significant contributors from last year’s squad, the returning players have confidence in the new regime. “I believe in this team, this program, and this staff,” Tac said. “They came in here with the attitude of changing the culture, and I can actually feel the change each day. I feel like we’re working towards something great.” As a part of the changing culture, Mitchell has emphasized the importance of consistency. Last season the Mean Green held late game leads in several games down the stretch, but was unable to finish

with a victory. “Being consistent with our effort, being consistent with what we teach, being consistent with what we get out of them, we are going to do it until we get it right,” Mitchell said. “That is important, to win the day and get more out of practice each day.” As far as expectations are concerned, the Mean Green is looking to prove voters who picked the team to finish last in the conference wrong. North Texas will kick off the 2015 season with a scrimmage at the Super Pit against Texas Woman’s University Saturday, Nov. 7, before taking on The University of San Francisco at home Friday, Nov. 13. “Those expectations are to not be last,” Mitchell said. “Those expectations are to show and prove everyday that we are not last. That is not something that we believe about ourselves, and that’s not something that we want to show the world.”

advances to C-USA semifinal By Alex Lessard Staff Writer @alexlikechexmix

In the first of four Conference-USA tournament quarterfinals matchups Wednesday, the No. 1 seeded Mean Green soccer team defeated No. 8 seed Western Kentucky University (8-6-5) by a score of 1-0. Despite allowing the Hilltoppers to fire off twice as many shots, North Texas (17-3-1) benefited from a header from senior defender Molly Grisham late in the first half, giving the team a lead it wouldn’t relinquish. “The humidity might have been the biggest factor today for both teams,” head coach John Hedlund said. “Today’s win sets the all-time record for a single season win total with 17. The girls really wanted to get to that special number this year.” Western Kentucky came out of the gate in attack mode, getting off the first two shots of the game and seven in the first 25 minutes. The Hilltoppers finished the half with 10 shots, but senior goalkeeper Jackie Kerestine kept the opposition scoreless with four saves. On the offensive end, North Texas didn’t need many shots to heat up. One of its best chances to take an early lead came in the 33rd minute, but junior midfielder Alexsis Cable was denied at the net by opposing goalkeeper Allison Leone. Hedlund’s squad scored the first goal of the game with just four seconds left before halftime, as Grisham redirected a backside corner kick from senior midfielder Karla Pineda past a cluster of defenders into the back of the net. The score was Grisham’s third goal of the season, coming with the help of Pineda’s eighth assist. “The longer you let a team hang around, they get more confidence. They think they can come at you more,” Grisham said. “To score going into the half, it’s a really big knock on their confidence.” North Texas came close to adding to its lead in similar fashion in the opening minutes of the second half, missing wide on two headers. A flurry of substitutions from both sides and backand-forth action followed for the remainder of the game, but the

NTDAILY.COM | PAGE 7 closest opportunity for a tie game came in 72nd minute. Western Kentucky’s Olivia Fitzgerald fired a shot that bounced off the post. The Hilltoppers weren’t fazed and kept their aggressiveness alive through a physical final ten minutes. With just nine seconds before the buzzer sounded, Kerestine saved a last chance opportunity to secure the victory. “The last thing we wanted to do was go into overtime,” Kerestine said. “Those extra minutes just strain you. It was nice to make the final play.” With pressure mounting as the games are becoming more meaningful, Hedlund put all hands on deck down the stretch to survive and advance. All ten starters played over 70 minutes, including a full 90 from Grisham and senior defender Tess Graham. The strategy paid off, earning North Texas its 14th shutout of the year and a spot in the second round of the tournament. “The strategy was just to play what we’re used to playing and staying confident in our system, knowing that we won the regular season title for a reason,” Grisham said. “If we keep doing what we’re used to doing, then we’ll be fine.” The Mean Green will face Middle Tennessee State University (11-5-4) in the semifinals on at 3:30 p.m. Friday after the Blue Raiders knocked off defending C-USA champion Rice University on Wednesday.

Kirby leads as only returning offensive lineman Junior center Kaydon Kirby brings leadership potential to the Mean Green

By Reece Waddell Senior Staff Writer @ReeceTapout15 As the only starting offensive lineman to return in 2015, junior center Kaydon Kirby has been bringing leadership to the line of scrimmage. Before the season began, he was one of 63 players named to the watch list for the Rimington Trophy, an award presented to the best center in college football. Kirby has also played the role of “Mr. Reliable,” starting 33 straight games for North Texas dating back to 2013, and became the first freshman to start every game at center since Andy Brewster in 2001. “He understands that as the veteran of the group, the calls that he’s making, especially getting us in the right protection and seeing the indicator, he isn’t the boisterous leader,” Canales said. “But he’s one of

those guys that when he says something, the team listens. They lean on him.” Kirby bolstered his resume in 2013 when the Mean Green went 9-4 and won The Heart of Dallas Bowl. Offensive line coach Mike Simmonds said he recognizes how valuable the bowl victory is for Kirby’s leadership and how crucial it is to have a proven player anchor the line and mesh the new pieces together this season. “It’s a jigsaw puzzle,” Simmonds said. “It’s like a science project to me, putting together an offensive line. It’s about competing and who performs the best in practice.” After his freshman season, Kirby was named to the Conference USA AllFreshman team and was part of an offensive line that allowed only 11 sacks in the season. He credited much of his success to Simmonds, who has been at North Texas since the 2011

season. “I think Coach Simmonds is one of the best offensive line coaches in the nation, honestly,” Kirby said. “He’s a great guy, great coach and he does a great job of producing excellent linemen.” Like many collegiate athletes, Kirby said he has the desire to play in the NFL should the opportunity present itself. “Absolutely, I think everyone does,” Kirby said. “But if it doesn’t happen I have a Plan B.” That alternative is going into coaching -- a profession Kirby said he is passionate about. He said the dream is to move up from coaching his fiancée’s sorority soccer team to become the head coach of a high school football team. “I really just kind of stand there,” Kirby said of his current coaching gig. “She’s a former collegiate soccer player and knows what she’s

doing. But for me, I definitely want to go into the coaching business.” Some of his teammates already seem to think of him as a coach because of his demeanor on and off the field. Junior quarterback DaMarcus Smith said Kirby has bailed him out of some tough situations and has a keen eye for picking up defensive

pressure. “He’s saved my butt sometimes if I may miss a call or a protection,” Smith said. “He’s the leader of that offensive line.” The past two weeks, sophomore running back Jeffrey Wilson has rushed for over 100 yards, a statistic Kirby said members of the offensive line take pride in. And while

he admits being a lineman isn’t the most glamorous position in the world, it’s one he loves. “We’re kind of the unsung heroes,” Kirby said. “When we see two guys rush for over 100 yards we know we’re a big part of that and we don’t necessarily have to get the credit for it. We love it. We know what we’re signing up for.”

when you consider others are petitioning the same site asking the President to support a Kurdish independent state in the Middle East. There’s nothing wrong with injecting a bit of humor into a conversation, but obviously Malala’s campaign for women’s education trumps “Distribute Sour Cream ‘N Bacon Ruff les to the U.S.” Those do sound pretty good though. Maybe email FritoLay? Instead of urging the removal of a woman for exercising her Constitutional right, why don’t we focus our attention to “Get U.S. to pull recalled rental cars off the road.” You know, things that actually affect lives and aren’t a desperate plea or an excuse to whine about someone else’s experience. Now that’s a change we can get behind.

Peace Prize Laureate, is a known user of the website. The activist reached out to the world along with the Global Partnership for Education to organize the money to ensure a global 12-year education for women. It’s an inspiring event and a measure of success for activism in the digital age. So, when the tools the site makes widely available are misused for opposing views, a la “Remove Dorothy Bland as UNT Dean of Journalism,” it does a disservice to the issues that need attention. Creating a click-bait topic for your 15 minutes of fame, knowing it will have no effect on the situation, is childish and

petty. Things like “Join with VICE News and demand release of journalist from Turkish prison”, or “Urge JCPenney to close for Thanksgiving” are the matters which mirror the true purpose of the website. “Put Taylor Swift on Law & Order: SVU” would be funny if it didn’t distract potential activists from things like “Family fights for hate crime charges after father attacked.” The same stigma affects “We The People” of WhiteHouse.gov, where individuals can submit petitions for the President to view if they garner enough signatures. A notable example of its misuse is the famed plea for the White House to build a Death Star from Star Wars. Hey, that’s fun, but is this really the place? This can be troubling
