The Union Board of Directors and the SGA have decided to demolish the kiosk outside the University Union, which is covered with flyers.

Union, SGA vote to bulldoze kiosk BY M ATTHEW CARDENAS Intern

Outside the University Union stands a 10-foot tall kiosk covered in fliers. It serves as a billboard for students to post information on any event from greek events to roommate requests. However, the lifetime of the kiosk is limited, as the Union Board of Directors in conjunction with the Student Government Association have decided to bulldoze it. “They’ve been talking about it for a year or so,” Union director Zane Reif said. “It has become an eyesore.” Thickly layered fliers cover the kiosk, some of which date back to late August. Under the blanket of forgotten papers lies the bulletin board wall, scarred with staples and holes. Beyond that, Reif said, the kiosk contributes to littering problems when wind or rain blow the papers to the bushes. It is also considered a fire hazard. The Union Board of Directors wanted to make the decision, so it addressed the SGA. “We wanted support from the SGA to make sure bases were covered on both ends,” Reif said. The vote to support the Union Board of Directors was almost unanimous. One person opposed it. “We want to put something

in its place,” said Tori Kuhn, a business sophomore and SGA senator. Kuhn suggested students take the metal from the kiosk and mold it into a sculpture. The board is deciding what it wants to replace the kiosk. Reif said it is up to the facilities department to approve what goes in the space, but the most popular idea is to put in a digital kiosk, like the ones featured in the Union. The cost of bulldozing the kiosk is being taken from the Union Master Plan. Budget details for the digital kiosk were unavailable because the plans were not finalized. Kellie Hill, SGA director of campus involvement and advertising junior, supports putting in a digital kiosk. “It’s a great decision,” she said. “[The kiosk] doesn’t bring out, in my opinion, the professionalism of our campus.” As it stands, the kiosk doesn’t seem to catch much attention. Waves of students pass by it in their daily routine. “I don’t ever look at it,” said Meagan Dodge, pre-psychology junior. “Anything posted there is posted somewhere else.” Bulletin boards are featured around campus. For more information about kiosks, visit the Union information desk on the third floor.

Hundreds of eager UNT students f looded the court, gasps of relief were heard throughout the Super Pit and senior guard Josh White became the most popular man on campus overnight. Play ing i n f ront of more than 7,100 ballistic M e a n Green fans, the largest c r o w d JOSH WHITE i n s c ho ol history, White led the way for the UNT men’s basketball team that used tough defense and clutch, shooting to shock Big 12 foe Texas Tech (1-1) in a 92-83 overtime win. “This team is playing like t hey’re used to w inning and they expect to win and that’s when you know you’ve graduated to the next level,” head coach Johnny Jones said. “The crowd made a huge impact and gave our team a lot of energy. It was g reat ex perience for our guys.” The Mea n Green (2-0) improved to 3-0 a ll time against Big 12 teams in the Super Pit and is days away from playing another Big 12 opponent in nationally ranked Kansas on Friday in Lawrence, Kan. White struck first with a f loater to force overtime as time expired and made two 3-pointers in the first two minutes of overtime to lead UNT to victory. “I can’t give enough credit to my teammates,” W hite said. “It’s easy to get up for these games. Every time we play a Big 12 team we’re always ready to play.”

Redshirt junior forward Kedrick Hogans battles to get a shot off against a Texas Tech player during UNT’s second home game of the season at the Super Pit Tuesday night. The Mean Green won in overtime 92-83. Both teams came out firing and traded baskets during t he f i rst ha l f. Texas Tech outscored UNT 29-18 in the paint before ha lf time, but a jumper by W hite made it 40-39 Texas Tech going into the break.

“We got enough players, we’re deep enough, but we just got to play better,” Red Raiders head coach Pat Knight said. “It’s not like we’re play ing the sisters of the poor. We’re playing the Sun Belt champs, so you have to be ready to

play.” The Mean Green led for less t han a minute during t he second ha lf, but came back from a handful of 7 and 8-point deficits.

Ambassadors draw attention to UNT Bush is coming No backpacks, cameras allowed

“And here on the left.” Students might hear that as a tour guide wearing a green shirt walks backward through campus with a troop of prospective students in tow. The person in green is probably one of UNT’s Eagle Ambassadors, a program that has earned UNT a spot on the list of 2010 Texas Higher Education Coordinating Board Star Awards. “To be a part of something that’s actually getting recognized by the state, that’s a cool thing,” said Christopher Jordan, an Eagle Ambassador and kinesiology junior. UNT won Star Awards for three years consecutively before 2010, according to the coordinating board’s website. Although the university did not receive a Star Award for 2010, it was named a finalist for the Eagle Ambassador program’s contribution to retention and application rates, according to the 2010 coordinating board website. This is Jordan’s first semester as an ambassador, he said, and he would like to continue as one until graduation. “There’s nothing like being able to influence people to come to a school you love,” he said.

Christopher Jordan, an Eagle Ambassador and kinesiology major, walks pass the Business Leadership Complex while giving a tour to prospective UNT students. The Eagle Ambassador program was named a finalist for the Star Award. The ambassadors work 10 to 20 hours a week, said Jennifer McClendon, the visitor experience manager. They start out at $8.25 per hour and get a $2,500 scholarship with a one-year commitment. Future ambassadors can apply in early February, she said. The program started in 1998 with 13 ambassadors and gave tours to 6,000 people that year, McClendon said. This semester, the program has 20 ambassadors, and for the 2009-2010 fiscal

school year, ambassadors took more than 20,000 people on tours. Each tour consists of an average of 15 people. More than 94 percent of prospective students who took tours in the spring of 2010 and were eligible to apply did so, she said. The program’s office does not have the numbers of students who applied and were accepted, McClendon said. “Our goal is to get people to apply,” she said.

Griffin Rice, a philosophy freshman, said UNT was the only affordable choice he had, and he was more comfortable after his tour. “It made me more excited about coming here,” Rice said. For many students it does make a difference, McClendon said. “Resea rch show s t hat prospective students want to talk to current students rather than people that look like their parents,” she said.

After two years of relative seclusion from the public sector, former President George W. Bush stepped back into the spotlight Tuesday, breaking ground on his presidential library at Southern Methodist University in Dallas. Tonight he kicks off his national book tour and becomes the first former president to visit UNT. Speaking before a sold-out crowd of more than 7,000 in the Coliseum, Bush is expected to discuss details from his autobiography “Decision Points.” About 4,000 students are expected to attend the event, which will receive regional and possibly national media attention, said UNT’s news promotion manager Buddy Price. “I think it’s a great opportunity for the university,” Price said. “UNT has a great tradition of valuing different perspectives.” Bush was selected last year as one of 12 possible finalists to speak by UNT’s Distinguished Lecture Series, Price said. Bush was invited after he received

the third-most student votes, but declined. This year, he approached UNT, asking to speak at a fee of $100,000, which would be paid for by student service fees designated for the series, Price said. Kevin Sanders is the president of the Student Government A ssociat ion a nd ser ves as chairman of the series committee. He said students’ response to Bush’s visit and the cost has been mixed, but he said he believes the event will benefit UNT. “It’s an instrument to put ourselves on the national stage,” Sanders said. Price said local law enforcement and the Secret Service will tighten security for the event. Attendees are encouraged to arrive early to go through the required security checkpoints. Doors will open at 6:30 p.m. and the speech will begin at 8 p.m. Purses will be searched at the door, and no backpacks, cameras, posters or signs will be permitted. No disruptions will be allowed, and anyone interrupting the program will be escorted from the building. “The campus is a free speech area, so protesters can be wherever they want to be [outside the Coliseum],” Price said.

Student makes statues warm, fuzzy for winter By Shannon Moffatt Staff Writer

Some animals grow warmer coats for the winter, but the animal statues at UNT had a little extra help. Rebecca Wright, a studio art sophomore, dressed the

to express her opinion that people are always trying to beautify and change nature, but that nature is beautiful on its own, she said. “I’m glad people like it,” she said. “But I don’t feel people get my concept of human versus nature.” On Sunday, when she and a friend were dressing t he animals, someone called the police on them. After the officers talked to Wright and realized she had permission, they asked her to take photos of them with the deer. “Her installation was a hilariously successful commentary on people’s need to adorn nature,” said Wright’s class instructor Laura Neaderhouser in an e-mail. The statues Wright dressed are one of the many art projects in and around the EESAT Building. The alternative processes fibers class exposes students to crocheting, knitting, felting and fibers activities other than the traditional weaving and screenprinting, said Brian Wheeler, assistant director of the Elm Fork Education Center. Wheeler is also the building representative and allowed Wright to dress the animals. “I work with the art students to encourage them to do projects over here,” he said. Wheeler worked with the College of Visual Arts and Design for 10 years before moving to the center. “The challenge is to go into a

Have self-integrity.” Cheating is more than just a grade. The ethics involved are also a part of the students’ understanding of the way to operate as a student or professional, Whitson said. “There is a real difference between earning a degree and getting a diploma, even if they

The dishonesty is not reported in the students’ permanent record, said Kathleen Whitson, an academic integrity deputy officer. “[The office] puts a central point to responsibility and adds consistency, which makes things fair and equal in the way the cases are handled,” Whitson said. “It is a support to faculty.

The Office of Academic Integrity is working on an online tutorial to help students understand plagiarism. “You may get away with [cheating] and not be caught, but you … know you engaged in something and got a grade you did not earn, and whatever comes of that, a degree, a job or a career, is tainted because you didn’t earn it,” McKee said.

Exhibit gives students insight to art industry BY SHANNON MOFFATT Staff Writer

Looking around the North Gallery in the Art Building, many people may not realize students produced the “Nineteen Cubed” art exhibit single-handedly. The showcase was created by art students in professor Pam Burnley-Schol’s professional practices for artists class, an advanced elective for undergraduate art students. “The purpose is so we can learn how to put on a show by ourselves,” said McCall Clark, a drawing and painting junior and student in the class. “The students are the ones that have been involved in making sure the show looks good.” This is the first year students are required to put on a show by themselves, Burnley-Schol said. Some of t he re qu i rements for the class include creating origina l a rt work, installing and coordinating t he show, ma k ing inv itations and handling opening reception events, she said. “It’s hands-on,” Clark said. “Hanging up everything is a lot harder than I thought it was.” T hey w i l l a lso t u r n i n a profe s sion a l doc u-

The diversity of art in a show like “Nineteen Cubed” can easily look cluttered or not cohesive, said BurnleySchol, so she created a twofeet restriction in any direction. The students used their theme and their class size of 19 to name the show “Nineteen Cubed.” The show’s opening reception was Monday night. The galler y is open from noon to 8 p.m. today and from noon to 5 p.m. Thursday. “The full title for the class that we joke about is professional practices for the artist or how to survive until the world is ready for your art,” BurnleySchol said.

Group helps students model Study abroad builds on résumés, life experiences BY AMBER JONES Intern

For students looking to pad their modeling portfolio, the Models of Style Exposed organization offers several ways to help students work in the modeling industry. Mosé is a student modeling orga nization t hat exposes students to the fashion industry and prepares them for reallife modeling experiences. The group helps build students’ portfolios while giving them work experience so they can model after graduation. “We consider ourselves a modeling agency and we function the same way,” said Monde Echun, president of Mosé. Each semester, Mosé holds auditions for new models. It currently has 48 members, onethird of which are returning students. “The main way to join is to come to the open calls,” Echun said. “This semester we combined our auditions with the UPC Top Modeling competition. We found more than I thought!” Some students who didn’t ma ke it to t he aud it ions this year hope to join next semester. “My friend wants to be a model, but I don’t even think t here a re big agencies in Denton,” said Nikki Mesecher, a Denton resident. “I think it’s really cool that the school has something like this for aspiring models.” To audition, students need two photos: one headshot and one body shot.

From New Mex ico to England, India to South America, UNT’s study abroad program offers students the chance to experience learning and traveling in a new way. At 11 a.m. today in the One O’Clock Lounge, UNT International will host its annual study abroad fair to get students interested and informed about continuing their education away from campus. “The study abroad fair is an opportunity for students to find out what their international education options are,” said Mary Beth Butler, the director of communications for UNT International. “We think it’s really important and we’d like to get students to learn what the opportunities are.” This year, the program offers about 40 different programs through various organizations and departments for students to study around the world. Butler said the programs, which will run during the summer of 2011, offer the chance to study everything from literature in London and criminal justice in Paris to philosophy in India and radio, television and film in Argentina.

On top of giving students the opportunity to travel, studying abroad is something employers consider when looking at a résumé, she said.

“You get to travel and experience new places.”

—Grace Young General studies senior

“We find more and more that employers are saying that a study abroad experience is what sets students apart,” she said. “It makes students more marketable, and that’s very important.” English senior Claire Gilliam feels her six-month experience in Italy last summer did that. “I was kind of in shock when I first got there even though I studied Italian at UNT for three years,” she said. But after getting accustomed to the environment, she learned she was capable of living another world.

“[I have] the confidence to know I could go into another culture and survive,” she said. Grace Young, a general studies senior, said if she had the opportunity earlier in her career, she would have taken it and said other students should take advantage of it. “You get to travel and experience new places,” she said. “It’s not a difficult program to do. It’s not even that costly, so [you] should definitely get into it.” Making it easy for students is a priority for Butler and the organizers. “We keep the cost as low as possible because we certainly understand that students are on a budget,” she said. Butler said there are scholarships available for those interested in the program through the International Education Fee Scholarship. While the résumé experience is important for students, it’s also a chance to simply see what else is out there. “They find out there’s a place outside of Texas and that sounds silly, but it’s hard to really believe that unless you’ve traveled,” she said.

Newcomer shares rare experience Baby Talk: UNT BY SEAN GORMAN Senior Staff Writer

Spending time in the elite Big 12 Conference during his freshman year and transferring to play at a junior college last season, UNT transfer junior forward Alonzo Edwards is as experienced as an NBA star in some ways, but raw as a college freshman in others. The Houston native played for Nebraska after being recruited from Klein Forest High School two years ago and competed at Lon Morris College for a year before joining the Mean Green. â&#x20AC;&#x153;When I got back to the Division I level, it was like I was starting all over again. It was like being a freshman,â&#x20AC;? Edwards said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;You see whatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s happening with the Miami Heat. As talented as they are, their players still have to fit in and thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s what Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;m trying to do.â&#x20AC;? Before coming to UNT, Edwards received limited minutes as a Cornhusker in what was a frustrating year. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I had a lot to learn at that

point in my career,â&#x20AC;? Edwards said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I figured there was a better opportunity for me elsewhere where I could add more to a team.â&#x20AC;? With more playing time against weaker competition, Edwards improved while at Lon Morris last season, averaging

7.9 points per game and experiencing his favorite on-the-court memory. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I scored 31 points and had the first 18 points in one game,â&#x20AC;? he said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I was hitting threes and was just on. Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;m not trying to be conceited or anything, but when my shot is on like it was then, Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;m unstoppable.â&#x20AC;? Edwards filled a void when joining the Mean Green this spring, as UNT lost a starting forward, former star Eric Tramiel, to graduation. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Alonzo is already doing an outstanding job getting to know the system and fitting in with our team,â&#x20AC;? head coach Johnny Jones said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Heâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s got so much talent and will only continue to improve as the season goes on.â&#x20AC;? Since joining the Mean Green, Edwards has made more of an effort to learn about UNTâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s game plan by communicating with his teammates. â&#x20AC;&#x153;He is fitting in well because he goes out of his way to ask us questions,â&#x20AC;? senior forward George Odufuwa said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;The fact that he is such a fast learner helps him a lot.â&#x20AC;? Playing on the same team as UNT senior guard Tristan Thompson at the Amateur Athletic Union level during high school has made the transition easier for the talkative transfer. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We definitely have a history together, and that makes playing with somebody so much easier,â&#x20AC;? Thompson said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;The chemistry is there.â&#x20AC;? While his rĂŠsumĂŠ with the Mean Green is empty for the moment, Edwardsâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; battles with future pro players during his time in the Big 12 gives UNT fans something to be excited about.

Edwards said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve had to guard guys like Michael Beasley and Blake Griffin, and Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve learned so much from those experiences.â&#x20AC;? The competitive edge No. 34 brings continues off the court and is seen in his recovery from a knee injury and everyday activities. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I just see myself as a competitor,â&#x20AC;? Edwards said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;If you tell me to do something, Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ll find a way to do it.

Staying away from the clichĂŠ of listening to music before games, Edwards will more likely be found standing in line at Subway than with an iPod before he plays. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t listen to a lot of music pregame, but my ritual is all about the food,â&#x20AC;? the son of Regina Edwards and Felix Potes said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I need to get my Subway before every game. Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s all about the sweet-onion chicken teriyaki.â&#x20AC;? The 6-feet-7-inches forward credits his uncle Kenneth Lather for helping him get serious about basketball and his work ethic off the court. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Alonzo is like a son to me,â&#x20AC;? Lather said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I talk to him two to three times a day. Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s amazing to see how much he has grown, and I am proud to see him handling situations like an adult on his own.â&#x20AC;? Edwards and the Mean Green next face Kansas on the road at 7 p.m. Friday.

Any weekend that UNT and the Dallas Cowboys can both win a football game this season serves as a pretty good sports BEN weekend. BABY Both teams have interim head coaches, and both teams have played significantly better since the respective coaches have taken over. However, the Mean Green continued to show positive vital signs, picking up a critical road victory against Middle Tennessee. The path that led to the win was rocky. UNT was forced to play a full hour of football to leave Murfreesboro, Tenn., with its third win of the season. The first two games have been sweet for a fan base that has been aching for wins. However, a win this weekend against Louisiana-Monroe would be the icing on a season that has taken a favorable turn. A victory would be monumental for the Mean Green. For starters, UNT would have a .500 record in conference play. Thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s huge, because it is something that hasnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t been seen since 2004. The will to win and gut out close games has also been absent for six years. That was the last time that the Mean Green won two games in a three-game span. It could stretch that to three victories in four games, which could propel UNT into the top half of the Sun Belt Conference standings. But more importantly, the win would be more crucial for what happens after the game has been played on Saturday. The win would give the Mean Green a huge amount of momentum going into the last game at Fouts Field against Kansas State. The Big 12 foe has held its own ground in conference that constantly

That would mean UNT would need to remain competitive into the second half. That will be a task in itself when the Wildcats bring a talented squad to Denton. Most importantly, a strong final stretch would bolster the case of interim head coach Mike Canales, who has done everything short of a fundraiser at Sonic to show how much he would like the job. If ever y thing were to go according to plan, UNT would finish the season with a record of 4-5, while Canales would have a record of 3-2 in his five games as the head honcho. Chico may put together a case that will be hard for athletic director Rick Villarreal to throw out as November draws to a close. The jury seems to be on the fence for now, but if the Mean Green can string together quality back-toback performances, a favorable verdict for Canales may follow suit.

Hemingway-esque style returns

Bush’s visit not wasted money Editorial Former President George W. Bush will speak at 8 p.m. tonight in the Coliseum in front of a sold-out crowd as a part of UNT’s Distinguished Lecture Series. Bush will be paid $100,000 for the visit, which comes from student fees. Many students have opposed the former president’s visit, complaining that student fees shouldn’t pay for him to speak at our university — but the fees are already reserved for the series each year. The Distinguished Lecture Series committee places 12 finalists on a ballot during the Student Government Association’s presidential election every year based on input from student organizations and individuals. Students then vote on the speakers and the finalists are ranked from the highest number of votes to the lowest. Bush ranked third on the list two years ago. He declined to come because he wasn’t making appearances at the time, but this year, set to launch a national book publicity tour, he approached UNT for the opportunity. The 12 finalists selected aren’t always viable candidates; they’re a representation of who students have expressed interest in having visit. They’re often unavailable for a variety of reasons. For instance, perennial TV personality Mike Rowe received a large percentage of the vote last year but wasn’t giving public speeches at the time. Many have argued that $100,000 is too much to pay Bush, yet many lower-profile figures often ask for much more. For example, former president Jimmy Carter — who received fewer votes than Bush — asked for more money. Former Secretary of State Condoleeza Rice asked for more than $100,000 in addition to a requirement that UNT provide a private jet. The series has a budget of $180,000 this year and will make $10,000 to $20,000 from ticket sales. The money that isn’t used from the budget rolls over to the next year. Students must pay these fees regardless, so paying Bush $100,000 is using what was allotted. Bush returned to the public eye after releasing his memoir Nov. 9 and breaking ground on his presidential library in Dallas. He chose our university as an outlet to launch his memoir, and the Editorial Board believes that shouldn’t be taken lightly. Bush’s memoir is meant to give the nation an inside look at his presidency. He is one of the first conservative speakers to visit our campus – and he was the commander-in-chief for eight years. This opportunity isn’t presented to UNT often. Not only did Bush fit the series’ budget, but also students voted for him to come here. Those against his visit had a chance to vote against it, but less than 10 percent of UNT students voted at all. Several Facebook groups opposing his visit and its cost have been created, and fliers were distributed around campus to protest. The Editorial Board asks those planning to protest to be respectful so our university is portrayed in a positive manner and to be thankful for the opportunity to have their protest publicized on a national scale.

“For sale: baby’s shoes, never worn.” Ernest Hemingway’s shor test shor t stor y ha s teased me for years, but I was unprepared for it to resurface this afternoon while I was observing a high school newspaper class. Brian Thomas, a creative writing and journalism teacher at Flower Mound High School, assigned his students the task of writing six-word memoirs, drawing the limit from Hemingway’s story and hoping to teach them about concise storytelling and effective use of language. Student responses were varied and insightful, and each provided a glimpse into the world of the teenage students, from “tried to get a tattoo; failed” to “I should change my faith. Maybe.” Thomas got in on the action as well, writing “Hated high school. Became a teacher,” and “Bouncer job prepared me for teaching.”

The responses hang around the room, each screaming out the inner thoughts of the writer, each taunting me as I scanned the walls, distracting me as I tried to focus on talking with the students and examining the curriculum. As soon as I got home, I Googled it. There are books full of six-word memoirs, hundreds of blog posts about the meaning of Hemingway’s original story, and a new movement in the same vein called “Twitterature,” which challenges Tweeters to write stories in 20 Tweets or less. People, particularly teenagers, are telling stories in six words, 140 characters, and 20 Tweets — limits largely untapped by English teachers and so thoroughly postmodern that even Tralfamadorians, the aliens in Kurt Vonnegut’s “Slaughterhouse Five,” would approve. Is telegraphic fiction a new

movement? I hope so. These flashes of stories blow my mind, and in a world that spends horrifyingly small amounts of time reading, they provide a glimpse of hope. Hope not only for the writing profession, but for a society that cares about the written word, be it on a cell phone screen or a library shelf. The implications a ren’t limited to classrooms. Aspiring writers may find an outlet in fiction that doesn’t require hundreds of pages of writing, and busy readers can complete a story in the time it takes to microwave another unhealthy dinner. Journalism, as usual, is ahead of the bar. Headlines have summed up stories in about six words long before the advent of Twitter or even Heming way. Already, news outlets tweet breaking stories, but what about features? Can

we write in-depth, descriptive prose with even tighter limits than our editors already impose? If we want to keep readership, I suggest trying. This is not to say that longform writing is irrelevant — that is far from the truth. I simply look forward to this trend catching on. It’s more than a little addictive.

There is really no other way to begin this article other than by stating: I am a Socialist. I am in the International Socialist Organization, which is a part of a nationwide organization with international ties. We believe in the abolishment of private property and the redistribution of wealth in the world. We call for an international working class revolution. We do not advocate so-called socialist countries like China, Cuba or North Korea. While I could continue on about the principles of the organization, there is an important issue at hand. That is this: Capitalism needs to move out of the way because the exploitation and oppression of the majority of the people in the world has gone on long enough. Socialism has every place in this day and age where there is enough food to feed the entire world, yet millions die of malnutrition and starvation

every year. While millions sit in jails for petty crimes, the real criminals are ruling the world. Socialism has ever y place in a society that denies people the basic necessities of life because according to the current system, people are not working hard enough. It is not that people do not work hard enough; it is that we are kept down by a system that thrives on our exploitation. It is this class, the ruling class, which has decided the lives of people in the world. It is time we move to a society that has political parties that represent the people and not themselves. If you are worried about long lines, I have news for you: There are long lines even in this society. But I do not want to spend time on naïve arguments. If you are worried about waiting in a line for health services, then it is time to begin re-thinking the world

you live in, and why people are denied things like food, shelter and health care . If histor y has taught us anything, it is that: a. We have not always lived in this ty pe of society, b. Change comes through people mobilizing together and demanding change. For example, the women’s suffrage movement, the civil rights movements and the GLBT struggle. It was only months after the National Equality March last year in DC that gay marriage was legalized. It was protest that saved the life of an innocent man on death row, Kenneth Foster. It was protest that decreased the 10-hour plus workday to eight hours. If you still need convincing about socialism’s legitimacy, just look to London, France and Greece, where strikes and protests are filling the streets. This shows people are in fact not satisfied with the current

system we all live in. But we do not even have to look that far to see that people are looking for an alternative. Dan La Botz, of the Socialist Party in Illinois, received thousands of votes during this year’s midterm election. I encourage somebody to set up a “Does Gravity Exist” booth next to the ISO table. Just because an idea is old is a meaningless argument in regards to validity. Better yet, I cha l lenge ever yone who actually cares about the present and future world to a join a movement that represents your interests. Join the Socialists. Become a part of a movement that will change the world.
