The Student Government Association had their first meet ing of t he semester Wednesday night, during which SGA President Blake Windham encouraged members to focus on the needs of students. Windham said he believes it’s safe to say the proposed smoking ban is an important issue to students, to both those in favor of the bill and those opposed. “We need to fix issues that are important to students,” Windham said. “We did ourselves a bad deed by taking away the students’ voices and their right to vote on this issue.” Windham said the vote to determine whether the ban will take effect has yet to be set up. The proposed budget called for a $4,000 budget decrease for the SGA and a $10,000 increase in travel funds for the Raupe Travel Grant program, in which funding is offered to students in need of money to travel to present dissertations. The Raupe fund currently has $22,500 in

it. These cha nges w o u l d ta ke ef fect next year if passed. “We saw w h e r e w e EDWIN c o u l d c u t CHAVEZ c or n e r s ,” Windham said. “There are so many organizations in need of money on campus. SGA can do without $4,000.” In t he com i ng week s, Windham said the SGA will continue to support undergraduate research programs, push for an initiative for tax-free textbooks and develop plans for a new University Union. The Union Master Plan committee is responsible for developing the Union Master Plan. A member of SGA will work with the committee to create the proposal. “We’re still in the initial phase with the architect,” he said, referring to plans for a new Union. “We’re also still getting student reactions.”

Heavy rains roll through Denton R EBECCA RYAN Staff Writer

Heavy rainfall Tuesday and Wednesday caused problems throughout Denton. Denton airport reported 3.3 inches of rainfall at 11 a.m. Wednesday, but the worst of the storms appeared to have passed. “The heaviest rain is done,” said Eric Martello, senior meteorologist for the National Weather Service in Fort Worth, said. “There may be light or spotty rain in the coming nights, but everything should clear up by the weekend.” Rainwater levels on the roads caused a high-water rescue involving a Denton Independent School District school bus for special needs students.

“[ Wednesday] morning, we did have two high-water rescues,” said John Cabrales, a city of Denton public information officer. “A DISD bus drove into high water that we had to rescue. Also, some citizens drove around a squad car blocking off a road that we had to help out.” Besides the two high-water rescues, Cabrales said no other major incidents were reported. He said along with crews patrolling streets, there are automated gates that close off roads if there is high water on them as well as barricades that officers set up. UNT is forced to change construction project schedules whenever a weather event rolls through.

Acclaimed director Jack Garfein, who survived the Auschwitz concentration camp before beginning a long career in Hollywood and on Broadway, will give a lecture at UNT Monday from 1:30 p.m. to 3:30 p.m. in the Golden Eagle Suite. Garfein, 81, will discuss his experience during the Holocaust and ref lect on how his work as a director and acting teacher has been influenced by his Jewish identity. The lecture, presented by the Jewish Studies program, will include a question-andanswer session and a book signing. Garfein is one of several speakers brought to UNT by the Jewish Studies program every year, said history professor Richard Golden, director of the program. “An important part of our program is to increase the educational experience of UNT students,” Golden said. “This is a great opportunity for UNT students, the UNT community and the DFW

UNT home to prominent SGA Jewish Studies program

Continued from Page 1

CAYDEE ENSEY Intern

UNT is home to the only Jewish Studies program at a public university in the DallasFort Worth area. The UNT Jewish Studies program (JSP) hosts five to six speakers a year, the majority of whom are experts on Judaism and/or Israel. The next speaker will be Jack Garfein, an Auschwitz survivor and movie and theater director. Garfein, 81, will host the lecture “The Life of a Holocaust Survivor and Theater-Film Artist” at 1:30 p.m. Monday, Jan. 30, at the Golden Eagle Suite in the University Union. A book signing will follow the discussion. “Exposing students, faculty and the community to relevant academics and public figures along with our Jewish Studies classes counters ignorance and parochialism [narrow-mindedness] as well as anti-Semitism, often camouflaged as anti-Israelism,” said Richard Golden, director of the Jewish Studies program. The program officially began in fall 2000 and offers 52 courses across 12 departments and six colleges. Classes range in topic from “The Ten Commandments” to “Broadway: The Jewish Musical.” “One of the program’s goals is to get information about the [Jewish people], Judaism and Israel to UNT students and the DFW community,” Golden said. “Another goal is to foster understanding and knowledge of the diversity of Jews and Judaism, as well as sensitivity to Jewish history and cultures. Thus it is

The Jewish Studies Office of UNT, located in the General Academic Building, Suite 460, is one of the largest in the nation. more arguably more important for non-Jewish than Jewish students to take JS classes.” The program is home to a lending library of over 1,500 books and 200 films available to the public. “As of July last year we had every film that the National Center for Jewish Film at Brandeis University had,” Anna Duch, JSP curriculum and event coordinator, said. Susan Perry, a recent UNT graduate with a political science major and a minor in Jewish Studies, said the program prepared her current job as the political affairs director and Latino affairs coordinator for the Consulate General of Israel in Houston, Texas.

“The Jewish Studies program gave me the tools I needed to work in the world of Middle East politics, took the extra step to help me in my future and continues to be a source of pride, knowledge and guidance,” Perry said in an email interview. Rabbi Geoffrey Dennis, an adjunct professor who teaches classes on Judaism, said students who take JSP courses leave more enlightened. “Jewish history helped lay the foundation of Western culture,” Dennis said. “A student of this program is informed about the historic and current role of Jewish culture in shaping the world.”

The SGA mapped out a list of goals for this semester, i nclud i ng reduci ng t he advising ratio, a transparent budget and advocate for the smoking ban. Vice President Edwin Chavez said SGA just wants to know how students feel about the ban to better understand what to do with the bill. “Some people are in favor of designated areas for smoking,” Chavez said. “But we talked to an officer and he said it’s almost impossible to regulate something like that just because officers won’t always be around to monitor the rule. We have to see how everything goes.” Senator Justin Wood, of the College of Arts and Sciences, said the smoking ban was a controversial issue and the wording of the ban can be perceived in a number of ways. “The bill is worded as a total ban, but that isn’t the only option,” Wood said. “I’m in favor of a more smokefree campus where there are specific areas that kids can smoke in, not a total ban. It’s the President’s baby though, and he’s advocating for a total ban.” The meeting ended with

and weather, but you can’t outsmart Mother Nature.” Sa lsman said rainy days cause problems, but construction crews adapt to conditions. “We’re fortunate enough to have large buildings with projects in them that we can move to,” Salsman said. “We send them indoors to work on these days. The cold water

loop going around campus does require an amount of work outdoors, so we focus less on projects like that when the weather is bad.” Sa lsma n sa id no equipment was broken or damaged, nor were any of the projects. However, high-water rescue crews and street crews were on patrol in case of emergency.

campus and will be fully stocked before deliveries to the university are made. “There are a lot of food trucks on the road that are at 50 percent [of their intended use],” Swick said. Besides being more efficiently packed, the 2012 Freightliner Cascadia is equipped with BlueTec emissions technology, which cleans the exhaust downstream of the engine and breaks it down into nitrogen and water.

“I’m told the emissions are more clear than the air we’re breathing,” Swick said. The truck itself costs about $200,000. Though it is owned by Ben E. Keith and the university did not have to pay for it, the truck will save money because of less frequent deliveries, according to Swick. “The university has never done business with a single vendor or ‘prime vendor’,” said Shohreh Sparks, director of UNT Resident Dining. UNT pays an estimated $5 million to $6 million a year in food expenses depending on the cost of food for that year, according to Sparks. “We used to use any distribution company available in the Dallas area we could find,” Sparks said. “Now it will be much cheaper for UNT and more sustainable.”

Correction

In Wednesday’s edition of the North Texas Daily, in the story “Proposal for hotel and conference center in works,” a source was quoted as saying John Q. Hammons Hotels Management, LLC had “shut down.” The source was referring to the partnership between UNT and John Q. Hammons, not the company, which is still in business. The Daily regrets this error.

UNT student acts as Kerr’s resident doorman A SHLEY GRANT Intern

It’s become a familiar sight for residents of UNT’s largest residence hall: the stoic young man with the black zip-up hoodie and thinframed glasses, backpack at his feet, door at his back. He doesn’t say much, lending an air of mystery to the quiet, polite student who sometimes spends hours at a time holding open the front door entrance to Kerr Hall. M a n y s t u d e n t s d o n’t k now why Sola A k i nola, t he 18-year-old pre-music freshman and Kerr resident, has taken it upon himself to be the dorm’s resident doorman. Akinola said he doesn’t really know either. He began holding doors open for people when he was a junior at Bowie High School in Arlington because he said it seemed like a nice thing to do. “It just became a habit,” he said. “I kept it up throughout my senior year and it just kind of followed me here.” When he arrived at UNT last semester, he only held the door open for 10 to 15 minutes at a time. As the semester went on, Akinola would stay longer

and longer. A rare sight on weekends, Akinola can usually be spotted manning the door Monday through Friday between the hours of 11 a.m. and 3 p.m. Holding the door open isn’t where his k indness ends; Akinola recalled an incident earlier this week when someone broke a glass bottle in front of the building. He took it upon himself to pick up the pieces and throw them away in a nearby trash can. Wor d a b out A k i nol a’s unusual service spread. Zach Kraft, a finance junior and Kerr Hall resident, said he heard about Akinola while living in a different dorm last semester. “I was at College Inn, and I knew of him,” Kraft said. “I think what he does is pretty cool.” Rain or shine, Akinola said he still goes out to hold the door open for students. Frances Bizer, a radio television and film junior and residence hall advisor at Kerr said that last November, Akinola was inducted to the National Residence Hall Honorary for the courtesy he displays to residents.

Akinola can be spotted Monday through Friday from 11 a.m. to 3 p.m. “I don’t really even know why [I hold the door open] anymore,” he said. The NRHH exists to recogn i ze out sta nd i ng leadership, service and dedication to the residence hall system, accord ing to t he ResL ife website.

“I t hink most residents appreciate and like having him around,” Bizer said. When he’s not keeping his post in front of Kerr, Akinola said he has a passion for music

and plays the cello, viola, violin, piano and recorder. Akinola eventually wants to double major in music performance and music composition, and hopes his love of music

will carry over to his life after graduation. “I haven’t thought about that too much,” Akinola said. “I know I want to be in a professional orchestra.”

Music students, faculty look forward to semester events L A M ECIA B AINES Intern

UNT’s College of Music is offering a variety of performances for students this semester, including guest recitals, master classes, piano concerts and choral collaborations. Along with the tried and true shows UNT puts on every year, the College of Music is trying several new and exciting programs, according to students and professors in the department. “I’d have to say I am most excited about all of the collaborative choirs that will be performing,” music sophomore Caroline Hunt said. “This will include Singers 1 and 2, and they will be singing vertical voices, which are new this semester.” Hunt said students could expect a broad selection of different styles in performances this semester. “Oh yeah, most definitely, you all can expect jazz, love ballads, swing tunes, art songs, and opera and tap,” Hunt said. College of Music students and

faculty said it was tough picking a favorite from the list of scheduled events. Linda Strube, music programs officer with the College of Music, said February in particular was set to kick off with a bang. “I don’t know about all of the shows that will be performed this semester because they hadn’t given me all of the information yet,” Strube said. “But the biggest and most exciting show that we are looking forward to is the Concert and Symphony Orchestra.” Strube said it has been almost ten years since UNT hosted a symphony. The Concert and Symphony

Orchestra will take place Feb. 4 at 8 p.m. at the Murchison Performing Arts Center. Tickets are free for students and available at the box office. Strube said she was enthusiastic about this first big concert, but there was more to come. “The Italian Baroque will be international; it will be famous people from around the world that will be performing,” Strube said. “‘Fleurs- de- Lys’ will be held on the fifth of February.” With the many guests artists lined up, the College of Music is set to take off this semester.

LONDON (AP) — Their settings span the globe, but t h is yea r’s foreig nlanguage Academy Award nominees a re united in g i v i ng lo c a l s tor ie s a universal resonance. The five finalists range from World War II Poland to modern-day Israel and Quebec, from an Iranian d i v or c e c ou r t t o t h e bruising world of Belgian cattle-rearing. Front-runner among the contender s a n nou nced Tuesday in Los Angeles is “A Separation,” the story of a ma rita l brea kdow n and its far-reaching consequenc e s f r om I r a n i a n w r iter-d i re c tor A sg h a r Farhadi. The widely praised film — hailed by some as a vital cultural bridge at a time of souring relations between Iran and the West — has a lready won the Golden Globe for best foreig n lang uage f ilm, and a lso gained Farhadi an Oscar nomination for best original screenplay. Farhadi said in a statement t hat it was a ver y personal project — a sentiment echoed by ot her nominated filmmakers. “For a long time I had this picture carved inside my head,” he said. “I don’t know how it got there, but once it was t here I just knew I had to make this film and here we are today with not one but two nominations.” “A Sepa rat ion” is up against four other films, including “Foot note,” a morda nt ta le of r iva lr y b e t w e e n f a t h e r- s o n Ta l mud ic s c hol a r s b y Israel’s Joseph Cedar. Ceda r sa id t here was “somet h i ng poet ic” i n the fact that Israeli and

Iranian films were both nominated. The two countries are bitter enemies, and Israel has been a leading voice in international calls to halt Iran’s nuclear program. Cedar, who was Oscar nominated in 2008 for “Beaufort,” said it was “very f lattering” to be nominated in what he called “a great year for foreign film at the Oscar.” Lior Ashkenazi, who plays the son, said he was shocked to hear t he f ilm had been nominated given its subject — “two Talmudic scholars, the most drab thing that could be.” T he d i rector ded icated t he f ilm to t he more t han 6,000 Poles, includ ing Socha, named by Israel’s Yad Vashem Holocaust memorial as “Righteous Among the Nations,” an honor reserved for non-Jews who risked their lives to save Jews. It’s a third Oscar nomination for 63-year-old Holland, one of t he countr y’s bestk now n d i rectors, a f ter “Europa Europa” and “Angry Harvest,” both of which also dealt with the Holocaust. Holland said she felt the nomination defied a “stereot y pe” t hat ever y t hing has already been said about the Holocaust.

And afterward, the film goes from the heart to t he mind a nd awa kens t houg ht s,” she told new s channel TVN24. “People feel the film is enriching.” T he f i f t h c ontender i s “Monsieur Lazhar,” Canadian director Philippe Falardeau’s stor y of an Algerian immigrant substitute teacher who helps a group of children get over a death.

Nelson leads Mean Green to victory over ULL ZACH CLAUSSEN

Staff Writer Sophomore guard Desiree Nelson tied her career-high w it h 16 poi nts, a nd head coach Karen Aston earned her 98th career win Wednesday as the Mean Green women’s basketball team defeated the Ragin’ Cajuns of LouisianaLafayette 66-45. UNT (12-9, 5-3) led wire to wire at the Cajundome and won consecutive conference road games for the first time since the 2005-2006 season. The Ragin’ Cajuns (5-15, 0-8) started the game in a 2-3 zone defense, something UNT st r ugg led w it h in its conference loss to Denver Saturday. Aston made sure her team was prepared for t he zone Wednesday. “We were better against the zone tonight,” Aston said. “I took responsibilit y for our players not being ready for the zone against Denver. I wa nted to ma ke sure t hat didn’t happen again.” Despite early foul trouble in the first half, the team’s stingy defense and Nelson’s

11 f irst ha lf points helped U N T to a 30-24 ha l f t i me lead. “It feels great to hit those shots,” Nelson said. “Coach [Aston] gave me t he green light and it ma kes me feel more confident when I’m out there.” In t he second ha l f, t he Ragin’ Cajuns cut the lead to 32-30 but t hat wa s a s close as t he Cajuns would come, as t he Mea n Green upped the offense and cut down the turnovers en route to a 19-point lead midway through the second half. “I think we’ve really had solid defensive efforts,” Aston said. “We’ve started to learn how to ‘D’ people up.” T he U N T w omen held L ou isia na-L a fayet te to 45 points; the ninth time this season the team has held its opponent to fewer than 50 points.

ULL denies UNT, Jones’ 200th career victory BRETT MEDEIROS Senior Staff Writer

In the first match up of the season between UNT and Louisiana-Lafayette, the game came down to the last shot for the second straight game for the Mean Green. With a final shot from junior guard Roger Franklin at the buzzer, the ball missed the rim and UNT lost to ULL (11-11, 5-3) 64-62 denying UNT head coach Johnny Jones his 200th career win. “The guys continued to play, and they never at any point felt rattled or felt they were out of it,” Jones said. “It’s a tough break tonight but it’s always tough on the road.” The Mean Green found themselves in tough position all night because freshman forward Tony Mitchell had to stay on the bench for most of the game because of early foul trouble at the beginning of both the first and second half. When he had to go to the bench in the beginning of the second half, Mitchell had committed more fouls (4) than points scored (3).

T he patter n cont inued throughout the game, as UNT (12-9, 5-3) committed 22 fouls during the game with both Mitchell and junior guard Brandan Walton one foul away from fouling-out.

“The guys today were resilient and I thought they played well.”

—Johnny Jones Head coach of men’s basketball team

“It’s just one of those things where these guys just have to learn to play without him [Mitchell],” Jones said. “But when he [Mitchell] came in, I thought he gave us positive minutes, and I thought he stepped up.” With an already depleted bench because of injuries and

foul trouble, the Mean Green began to run out of gas in the second half. Jones risked putting Mitchell back on the court with four fouls, but UNT could not find a flow on offense, as the team only shot 37.9 percent from the field. Late in the game, the Mean Green started to make a comeback and found itself behind just two points with less than a minute left in the game after facing a 10-point deficit with seven minutes remaining. However, the last second shot by Franklin could not find the bottom of the net. The loss sends UNT to 6-3 in conference play and drops the team out of first place in its division. “The guys today were resilient and I thought they played well,” Jones said. “The deal is we just don’t have a whole lot of room for error and I thought unfortunately we gave them [ULL] too many opportunities.” The loss allows Jones to try to win No. 200 in the Super Pit against Arkansas State at noon Saturday.

Mean Green Trivia Since coming to UNT in 2001, men’s basketball coach Johnny Jones has helped the program thrive, notching two trips to the NCAA Tournament and winning 184 games, good for second in all-time victories in Mean Green history. Which former Mean Green men’s basketball coach ranks ahead of Jones as the all-time leader in career wins at UNT? Answer: Leading the Mean Green from 1935-1959, Pete Shands amassed 224 career victories at UNT and holds the record for all-time wins to this day.

When freshmen guards Chris Jones and Jordan Williams were declared academically ineligible for the rest of the season last week, a door was opened for the team’s remaining guards to lead the Mean Green backcourt. Enter UNT sophomore guard Alzee Williams, who tipped in the game-winning basket as time expired in overtime Saturday against Denver in UNT’s first conference game since Jones and Williams were deemed ineligible. “I was in pure shock after that game,” Williams’ father Alzee Williams Sr. said. “I’ve looked at the play over and over, and I still can’t believe it. I thought when [junior forward] Roger [Franklin] missed the shot the game was over.” Born a New Year’s baby on Jan. 1, 1990, Alzee “Al” Williams first learned to play basketball at 2 years old with a playschool basketball set that he played with in the kitchen, and like every other child, he watched and idolized Michael Jordan. “If I wouldn’t have been doing this, I would’ve been just like every other regular kid out in

the streets not doing anything positive,” Williams said. Williams jumped around from NBA player Chris Bosh’s alma mater Lincoln High School to Mississippi Elite Christian Academy before joining the Mean Green in the middle of the team’s five-year stretch of 20-win seasons in 2009. At Lincoln High, A lzee Williams averaged 17.3 points

filled out before joining a collegiate team. Originally from Oak Cliff in Dallas County, Williams chose UNT because of its close proximity to his hometown. His decision also gave his parents the ability to watch every home game. “Al has been what I like to call a ‘glue guy,’” head coach Johnny Jones said. “He has done

“Al brings straight toughness to the team. His defense and his heart are tough to match.” —Tyler Hall Senior guard per game and was the main fixture in a Tiger defense that allowed only 51.8 points a game. The thinking behind joining the Mississippi Elite Christian Academy before going to college was to get ready for college basketball. W hile Williams always had the height, he was not very muscular and wanted to become bigger and more

a phenomenal job for us. He’s been able to play multiple positions for us and he takes a great deal of pride in his game.” Despite joining the Mean Green in 2009, he is still considered a sophomore because of a knee injury to start the 20102011 season that forced him to redshirt. “The injury gave me an extra drive because not a lot of people

come back from knee injuries,” Alzee Williams said. “I really learned a lot sitting out and watching the other guards.” Defense has always been a weapon in Alzee Williams’ arsenal, which became apparent ea rly in his UNT ca reer. Through practice and games, Williams gained the respect of his teammates because of his ability to shut down any player he was guarding. Even the veterans on the team wanted Alzee Williams on the court in last second situations so he could guard the opposing team’s most dangerous shooters to help preserve a victory. “Al brings straight toughness to the team. His defense and his heart are tough to match,” said senior guard Tyler Hall, who now plays alongside Williams in the starting lineup. “He has no give-up in his game.” The guard studies sociology, but would like to continue playing basketball after he graduates. “Once his career is over at North Texas I think that he will have put himself in position that he will continue on in basketball. I really do,” said Leonard Bishop, Williams’ former coach at Lincoln High.

It’s the third and final period. You know time is running out. You double check the scoreboard to see that the game is still t ied a nd t here’s on ly a minute remaining in the game. Suddenly, you see your team’s goalie racing out of his net, speeding toward t he bench. At t he sa me time, his teammate leaps over the ledge to join in the melee at the other end of the ice. You’re praying for that last second game-winning goal, hoping at the same time that a stray brea kaway or luck y slap shot from the far side of the ice doesn’t bring t he whole plan crashing down. The puck is flying from stick to stick. The crowd is yelling with a desperate plea for someone to “Shoot it!” Then comes the sound, either the goal horn or the final buzzer. T h i s i s hockey. T h i s is what makes the game u n ique. T h is late-ga me excitement is w hy you s hou ld g i v e ho c k e y a chance and watch a few games. You might enjoy it. W h i le t he occasiona l s c u f f le c a n m a k e t he game seem brutish, there is an unmatched level of f i nesse present when a 6-foot-tall man runs on ice with nothing more than a one-eighth inch blade attached to the bottom of his shoes. In the process of trying to stay upright, he is furiously chasing a d isk of v u lca n i zed r ubber t hat is one inch t hick, t hree inches in dia meter a nd about six ounces in weight, with nothing more than a 6-foot-long stick. The challenge, after completing the

Alison Eldridge last two tasks, is to squeeze that puck into a goal 6 feet wide by 4 feet high. Oh, and there’s the goalie standing in front of the goal determined to not let him score. A nd t here is a lways t he inevitable shoot out to add to the tension. It’s that make it or break it one-on-one battle between the shooter and the goa lie, where strateg y and talent merge in an attempt to outsmart the man at the other end of the puck. The longest shoot out in National Hockey League history took 15 rounds, or 30 shooters, to determine a winner. W hen t he Da l la s St a r s reloc ated to Da l la s f rom M i n ne s ot a i n 19 93, t he prev iously unknow n world of hockey rocked the DallasFort Worth area. W hen the Stars won the Stanley Cup in 1999, the NHL ’s equivalent to the Lombardi Trophy, new fans f locked to the sport. But w it h subsequent seasons producing lackluster results and the 2004 lockout claiming the entire 2004-2005 season, attention has turned to area teams who have been more successful, such as the Texas Rangers and the Dallas Mavericks. Even with the focus dwind l i ng f rom t he Sta rs, t he sport has continued to grow in the area, with some venues offering classes for children a s you ng a s 4 yea rs old. Hockey has been in Dallas for almost two decades, and t h roug h t he ups a nd t he downs it’s still here, and it’s not leaving without a fight.

NFL hopes to avoid Super Bowl seating issues INDIANAPOLIS (AP) — The NFL is trying to avoid another super snafu. One year after hundreds of ticketed fans were left without seats at Cowboys Stadium, organizers have added only 254 temporary seats to Lucas Oil Stadium in Indianapolis for the Feb. 5 game between the New York Giants and New England Patriots. League spokesman Brian Mc C a r t h y s a id of f ic i a l s decided in March the capacity for a stadium that normally seats about 63,000 for football games would be expanded to roug h ly 68,000 for t he Super Bowl -- with most of the additional capacity coming f rom sta nd i ng-room on ly tickets. The league still could add some padded seats to camera plat for ms, sta nd i ng-room only availability to stadium suites and perhaps additional seats near the auxiliary media

area, but no more tickets are going on sale. “What we do is take a hard look every year,” McCarthy said Tuesday. “As we get closer to the game, our event planners will sit in each of the sections and fill in other areas that would not be used for a regular-season game. “ That certainly wasn’t the experience some fans got in Arlington, Texas. Just hours before kickoff of last year’s Green Bay-Pittsburgh game, league of f ic ia l s a n nou nced t hat about 1,250 temporary seats were deemed unsa fe. The league scrambled to find new seats for about 850 people, forcing the rest to watch from standing-room only locations around the stadium. League officials later agreed to g ive t he a f fected fa ns several options. The approximately 2,800 people who were delayed in reaching their

seats or relocated once they got inside Cowboys Stadium could receive a refund for the face value of last year’s tickets or receive a game-day ticket to a future Super Bowl. Roughly 475 other fans who were left w ithout seats for the game won by Green Bay had four options: Receiving a refund of three times the face value of the ticket ($2,400) and a ticket to Indy’s first Super Bowl; a game ticket to any future Super Bowl with airfare and four nights in a hotel room covered by the league; a check for $5,000; or a check for more money if they cou ld document ex penses topping $5,000. W hen t he Ind ia napol is host com m it tee sold NFL ow ners on t he game, t hey estimated the stadium could be expanded to a capacity of 70,000. A fter last year, the league took a more cautious a ppr oac h a nd i n Ma rc h

settled on the rough number of 68,000. Still to be decided is the actual capacity. That won’t be announced until late next week, which McCarthy said is customary. The 254 seats were already in place Monday night when CBS filmed its annual show “The Super Bowl’s Greatest Com mercia ls,” hosted by Boomer Esiason and Jillian Michaels at Lucas Oil. The show will air Feb. 1 at 8 p.m. One key change this year will be the addition of a new mobi le phone applicat ion to receive rea l-time information on everything from weather to the waiting times at stadium gates. The application includes a map of Lucas Oil Stadium and downtown Indy as well as a full event schedule on game day and the week leading up to the game as well as informat ion on restaurants and nightlife.

What do you think of the proposed oncampus smoking ban?

“I have asthma, but smoking doesn’t effect me. Twenty five feet is not a bad practice of safety. I mean, there aren’t many children here.”

Jacob Acosta

Mechanical and energy engineering sophomore

“I think there should be designated areas. If you don’t smoke, you don’t want to smell smoke or smell like smoke.”

Brittany Owens

Psychology sophomore

“It’s your right. What if people don’t want to breath smoke? The facts about smoking speak for themselves. Designated areas would be a good start to ease into a full ban down the line.“

Rick Valencia

Business Graduate Student

“They should be more strict on the 25-foot rule, but I don’t think a ban is right. The state should say ‘you can’t,’ not the schools.”

Kardashian undeserving of radio attention When Lamar Odom was traded from the Los Angeles Lakers to the Dallas Mavericks this past December, it seemed like half of North Texas let out a giant squeal of excitement and the other half groaned in anticipation of what was to come. The interesting thing about these reactions is that the majority was in no way related to Odom, but rather to who would be tagging along with him. Odom is married to celebrity and national source of eye-rolling Khloe Kardashian of the (in)famous Kardashian clan. Under the production skills of mother Kris Jenner and Ryan Seacrest, Khloe and sisters Kim

and Kourtney became stars of the ultra successful TV show, “Keeping Up with the Kardashians.” The show, broadcast on the E! channel, was so successful that according to Yahoo news it averaged 3.6 million viewers an episode by its fifth season. The amazing part of the story is that the only thing the Kardashians were famous for was their late father, who defended O.J. Simpson in the mid-‘90s, and a scandalous home video made by Kim and R&B singer Ray J. As of Tuesday, The Mix 102.9 has signed Khloe on to do a radio show for an hour from noon to 1 p.m. every weekday. Her qualifications for radio

are much the same as her qualifications for being a TV star: that is to say, nonexistent. Sure, she did a radio show in Miami during the filming of the “Keeping Up With The Kardashians” spin-off “Kourtney and Khloe Take Miami,” but how did she get that job? By being famous. It’s upsetting that we live in a world where people who spend years at institutions of higher learning working toward degrees in things like broadcast journalism have a hard time getting work in the entertainment industry while jobs are handed out to trust-fund babies who marry athletes.

The lesson here is tough to digest. The job market isn’t fair, and that goes twice for the entertainment industry. However, consumers do have a say in the matter. It’s up to us to make informed decisions about whom we listen to or watch. Our perspective and opinions on the world are in many ways shaped by the media we allow to enter our ears or eyes. If you value the opinions of someone who’s never had to work to get in the position they are in, then that’s your business, but if you think education and experience should be rewarded, then 102.9’s Mix Up with Khloe Kardashian Odom probably isn’t for you.

Fashion to watch for in 2012 It’s time to get comfortable and knowledgeable with the newest fashion trends for 2012! We’ve seen trends come and go over the last 10 years: bell bottoms, bringing back the ‘80s with leg warmers and heels and even crimped hair. Sweaters, berets, hoodies and shawls are all timeless articles of clothing that are successful at keeping us warm and making us look good at the same time. Win-win. A few fashion trends that stuck around and carried over into 2012 are wide-legged jeans or trousers, faux fur, tights, heavy jewelry, mix-and-match scarves and knee-high boots. Geometric patterns and more subdued colors are popular for both men and women this season. Oversize shirts with tights and boots are an easy and chic look that is easy for most anyone to pull off. Unisex skinny jeans are a bolder statement, while fitted jeans are a ”safer” bet. Layering is still a fashionable and smart way to dress with consideration to the ever-changing unpredictable patterns of Texas weather. For a professional look, suits are still a great way to go; there’s certainly nothing wrong with a respectable no-nonsense suit. The harsh rules about mixing black and brown are gone. This is a trend that has stayed strong this year, making it just a bit easier to coordinate our darker winter-colored clothing. Brown boots with a black pair of leggings or dark jeans are just one way to wear these colors together. Accessories for both men and women

are popular as well. Fedora hats, unisex button-up shirts, large newspaper style bags, ballet-themed shoes, high-waisted belts and large, chunky jewelry are on sale everywhere. Who doesn’t want to save money and look great on campus at the same time? While it’s important to stay with the times and embrace the trends, it’s equally as important to recognize when a clothing item is not your style. The new trend with hair and makeup is au naturel. Less is more right now. If you feel a style is not comfortable, take the latter approach. After all, being comfortable is equal to being confident; you can’t have one without the other. Fresh trends and brand-new styles are born every season. If a newer style doesn’t work for you, there are always simpler and more economical ways to dress. Expressing yourself through clothing can prove to be an uplifting and positive tradition!

Romney should release tax info In a curt nod to growing public pressure, Mitt Romney on Tuesday finally released his tax return for 2010 and an estimate for 2011. As if that’s enough. Romney is one of the richest men ever to run for t he W hite Hou se, w it h a n acc u mu lated wealth of more than $250 million. He is campaigning on his assertion to be a “jobs creator” in the pr ivate sector, but we’ve seen nothing to convince us that it’s true. Having made the argument, Romney has a special obligation to release records that can help show where his money came from, what causes he supports and how the tax policies he advocates would affect him. Romney should produce ta x returns for at least 10 years, as President Barack Obama and Vice President Joe Biden have done. And he should do it now, before the critical Super Tuesday primaries. Romney seemed f lummoxed when he was asked about his tax returns earlier this month, and no wonder. He has successfully dodged hav ing to revea l t hem ever since the Boston Globe first asked for them in 1994 when he ran for the U.S. Senate against Ted Kennedy. Romney ref used t hen a nd cont i nued to ref use every year during his two terms as Massachusetts governor. Either he’s got something to hide, or he has an outrageous sense of entitlement.

Personal tax returns are limited in what they tell us, but they are the clearest window we have to see how a candidate’s statements sync up with his or her conduct. Here’s what voters lea r ned Tuesday : Romney and his wife, Ann, made $21.6 million in 2010. (This is the candidate who implies he knows how people feel when they get pink slips. Oh, come on.) Paying about $3 million, the Romneys had an effective federal income tax rate in 2010 of 13.9 percent, lower than many top wage earners and nearly half the rate paid by Obama and Romney’s Republican challenger Newt Gingrich. We also now know Romney’s tax proposals would cut his federal income taxes by nearly 40 percent. Incredibly, under Gingrich’s tax plan, Romney would pay next to nothing. A mer ic a n pre sident s back to the early 20th centur y have released persona l ta x retur ns. Franklin Roosevelt did it. So did Ronald Reagan, George W. Bush and Richard Nixon. Mitt Romney’s fat her, for mer M ich iga n G ov. George Romney, turned over 10 years of returns during his 1968 presidential campaign. Two years aren’t going to cut it. If Mitt Romney wants voters to t r ust him, he’s got to come clean. This editorial appeared in the San Jose Mercury News Wednesday, Jan. 25.
