Experts weigh in on Grove balcony collapse ISAAC WRIGHT

Assigning Editor The balcony collapse at The Grove apartments in Denton on Sept. 3 should have never happened because decorative balconies with doors that access them are prohibited by building codes, industry experts said.

Three men attending a party the early morning of Sept. 3 were taken by helicopter to a Fort Worth hospital after the thirdfloor balcony they were standing on fell to the parking lot below.

All three men sustained injuries and one was in serious condition following the incident.

According to police reports obtained through a Freedom of Information Act request filed by the Daily, witnesses reported that people attending the party had been walking off and on the balcony to smoke cigarettes during the hours before the collapse. Witnesses also reported the three men injured were not engaging in reckless behavior while on the balcony.

The three men were identified in police reports as Antonio Garcia, a 24-year-old UNT student, Grant Draper, 24, and Garrett Draper, 22.

You just can’t have a door that opens up into nowhere.”

A statement issued by Campus Crest, the North Carolina-based company that owns The Grove, the morning after the incident, said the balconies were decorative and not meant to be load bearing. The three men accessed the balconies through an unlocked door that led onto them.

Althea Arnold of the engineering faculty also said the doors and balconies The Grove installed should not have been allowed.

“If you have a door, it must have a landing that meets building codes,” said Arnold, assistant

UNT’s Sustainability Council is offering members of the UNT community an opportunity to be involved in deciding which green projects UNT takes on.

Through the “We Mean Green Fund,” students, faculty and staff are able to submit proposals for environmental projects, which will be reviewed and approved by the Sustainability Council’s student-majorit y subcommittee, according to the council’s website.

“We want to empower students to make a difference and control what their money goes toward,” said Nicole Cocco, a student services representative for the Office of Sustainability. “We need more students on the council for there to be a more legitimate representation of students.”

Students pay a $5 fee each fall and spring semester to go toward UNT’s We Mean Green Fund, which currently has about $200,000. The fee was approved in a special election during Earth Week 2010 and went into effect fall 2010.

Since its creation at the end of the spring 2011 semester, the

subcommittee has been working to verify that all of its policies and bylaws correspond with UNT policies, as well as accepting and analyzing incoming proposal applications.

“Our committee is supposed to be the voice of the students,” said Breana Hyche, an international studies senior and council chair on the student committee for the Green Fund. “We would like a minimum of 10 students before we take action.”

The subcommittee is required to have at least five students and three non-students. As it stands, the group is made up of four established members and five who are in the process of becoming members, but it’s still looking for more representation.

“I, personally, like the different rainwater recycling areas and would like to see more,” Hyche said. “However, I am more interested in seeing the innovative and creative ideas of students and staff around campus. We want to appeal to everyone, from art students to engineering students.”

University continues Florida moves primary vote asbestos removal efforts A MY SKAGGS Intern

UNT is in the process of an ongoing project to identify and analyze asbestos-containing material in all of its buildings, in order to comply with the Environmental Protection Agency’s Code of Federal Regulations.

A number of UNT buildings were constructed with building materials containing asbestos, which the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention lists as a carcinogen.

“It’s good for people to know that asbestos exists in these buildings,” said Matt Moncus, asbestos manager for UNT’s Risk Management Services. “But they should also know that there is a process in place that has been established for many years, and we definitely follow that process.”

Asbestos is a naturally occurring mineral commonly used before 1996 in building construction because it has strength and resistance to fire and heat.

Risk Management Services has found asbestos in floor tiles, drywall, roofing felt, various forms of insulation, and inside cement in some of UNT’s build-

ings, Moncus said.

Asbestos is found in friable and non-friable forms. Friable asbestos is considered most harmful because it can be crumbled easily by hand, causing it to

become airborne. In this form, asbestos can be breathed in, which can lead to health risks including lung cancer, according to the CDC website.

Non-friable asbestos is in a form that cannot be crumbled by only hand pressure and therefore is not considered an immediate threat, according to the EPA. This form can become harmful if it is damaged during renovations or demolition.

Since 1996, UNT has followed National Emission Standards for Hazardous Air Pollutants, which stipulate that materials containing friable asbestos are abated through contracts with a trained asbestos removal companies. However, abatement is not required for non-friable asbestos because it is not considered a threat.

UNT’s Risk Management Services created a management system in accordance with the Texas Department of State Health Services.

“The mission of the asbestos program is to protect and promote the physical and environmental health of the people of Texas from asbestos,” according to the department’s website.

The plan, also available online, contains removal procedures, a permit system and requirements for training courses.

“From personal knowledge, I know they’re well trained. From personal experience, I have found them very helpful. I wouldn’t worry,” said Rick Reidy of the engineering faculty.

(MCT) WASHINGTON — Florida’s expected move to set a late January primary will force other states to move their nominating contests ahead in kind, pushing the start of the Republican presidential sweepstakes closer to – and perhaps even earlier than – New Year’s Day. Florida House Speaker Dean Cannon said state Republican leaders have agreed to move the state’s presidential primary up by more than a month in order to make sure the nation’s largest swing state will go fifth in the nominating pecking order.

That decision, first reported

by CNN, will be formalized Friday by a panel named by Republican Gov. Rick Scott and legislative leaders.

The move violates rules established by the party’s national committee that were intended to delay the nominating process until February. Those rules say only four states – Iowa, New Hampshire, Nevada and South Carolina – can hold nominating contests in February, and other states must wait until the first Tuesday in March.

Flor ida leaders have intended for their contest to

be next in that lineup, and are setting the date for Jan. 31 since other states have already moved to or are keeping their contests in February.

“Florida’s rightful position is fifth. We will have to go no earlier than Jan. 31,” Cannon told The Orlando Sentinel. “We think that’s the right date.”

States that move ahead of the established RNC window face penalties including slashing the size of the state’s delegation to the national convention.

It is unclear whether the

party will follow through on that threat, particularly since Florida is home of the party’s 2012 convention.

Iowa’s caucuses, the first of the nominating contests, had tentatively been scheduled for Feb. 6, and Florida’s move could push that date to the first part of January, if not earlier.

M a t t S t r a w n , I o w a’s Republican Party chairman, reaffirmed to the Des Moines Register on Wednesday that his state “will be first.”

Budget shortfalls pose City approves student problems for libraries housing construction A NN SMAJSTRLA

A LEX M ACON

Martin Halbert, UNT dean of libraries, approached the Student Government Association during Wednesday’s senate meeting to discuss the library system’s $800,000 budget shortfall.

The library’s budget was decreased from $17,508,295 in the 2011 fiscal year, an amount Halbert said was already too low, to $16,099,726 in the 2012 fiscal year.

“Reliance on enrollment is a double-edged sword,” he said.

“Enrollment decrease this year is having a huge impact on our budget.”

The librar y needs more money to keep up with growing research collections and maintain the quality of services for student learning, Halbert said.

He cited library budgets at a number of Tier One research universities as an example of what UNT should be spending to achieve the same status.

Ninety-nine percent of library funding comes from the $16.50per-credit-hour fee students pay each semester. This figure has stayed the same since 2004 while the cost of research materials has climbed by 7 percent or more each year, Halbert wrote in an open letter to the UNT community.

Halbert suggested an increase of the current library use fee, but said he would like to differentiate the sources of revenue for the UNT libraries and not rely on student fees alone.

“It was touching to see that [Halbert] came to the meeting, acknowledged the problem and

Da llas-based Crossw ind Development Partners LLC is planning to build a fivestory student housing apartment complex on two acres at the southwest corner of Eagle Drive and Bernard Street, at least in part to account for a booming student population at UNT. The Cit y Counci l voted 6-1 last week to approve a rezoning of the property to allow for high-density student housing, clearing the way for plans on the 209-unit – about 600 beds – complex to move forward.

“Densit y ’s a lways been kind of a bad word in Denton over the years,” Mayor Mark Bu r roug h s s a id . “It h a s been seen as the enemy of keeping things small-town in nature.”

However, Burroughs said the city had to “cope with the explosive grow th” of UNT, which he said had limited space to bui ld add it iona l student housing.

To prevent the destruction of historic neighborhoods, avoid excessive car traffic and provide students with housing close to campus, Burroughs said authorizing high-density housing on Eagle Drive was necessary.

Council member Chris Watts voted against the rezoning.

A lt hough he supports t he development of the area in question, he said he struggles with the high density of the planned complex.

Watts named four other privately-owned high-density student housing complexes that are either new or currently under construction, including Midtown, the Grove and the development on Fry Street,

After Halbert’s presentation, Honors College senator Matt Florez proposed an “AntiTextbook Reserve Initiative.”

The bill would do away with the Textbook Reserve Initiative, which allocates 5 percent of SGA’s budget to departments to be spent on textbooks for student use in the library.

Although it is included in the bylaws, the current initia-

tive is not included in this year’s SGA budget, and the association is not enforcing it, Florez said.

After hearing Halbert speak about the library’s financial needs, Florez said he is leaning toward keeping the initiative in place.

“I need to talk with [SGA President Blake Windham] and see if we can set aside the money for it,” Florez said. “We also need to ask the departments if the initiative would benefit them.”

The SGA’s fiscal committee will discuss the bill during its meeting immediately before next week’s senate meeting.

The apartment’s temporary certificate of occupancy was issued Aug. 25 and one final inspection was completed Sept. 4 and a follow-up inspection was conducted Sept. 16.

The incident has prompted the city to take a hard look at similar balconies installed on Denton apartments, said Denton city spokesman John Cabrales. He said city inspectors have been investigating the incident but have not yet released a statement.

“We were investigating what happened that morning,” Cabrales said. “We’re still in the process of doing that. We’re also

“I’m concerned that we have this high density without a higher policy managing this,” Watts said.

A t h ree-level, pa r t ia l ly underground parking garage is included in the plans for the Crosswind Village, and will be located underneath the complex itself.

The planned complex will lease by the bedroom.

The Cit y Council stipulated that the building cannot exceed 65 feet in height, and that units in the complex can contain no more than four bedrooms each.

Todd Thomas, a partner with Crosswind Development, told the Council there were no plans to include retail in the

complex. He said the retail center farther dow n Eagle Drive, which includes Chicken Express and Subway, was ripe for development.

Ea rlier t his mont h, t he Council approved rezoning to a l low t he Midtow n Apa r t ments, located nea r Carroll Boulevard and Hickory Street, to construct an additional 40 rooms, or 150 beds.

“That street’s already really busy.”

really inspecting other ‘Juliet’ balconies at other apartments in the city.”

Arnold said it is possible Campus Crest received an exemption to allow the balconies, but also said doors that lead onto an unsafe structure are not allowed by building codes. Arnold said the first step in constructing any building is to submit plans to the city. From there, she said the city would have to approve the design of the building before construction could begin.

Arnold said the inspection process happens in such a way that the collapse wouldn’t affect a final inspection because the balconies were already built in accordance with the plans.

“Once you’ve inspected something, you don’t go back and inspect it again,” Arnold said. “I don’t think this is an inspection problem. Inspectors are going to inspect and say, ‘This is what you’re going to build according to the plans. If you have a decora-

tive balcony, they would have said it met the plans.’ It would be a plan check problem.”

Some residents at The Grove are not concerned about the structure of the balconies since there are only four balconies overlooking the pool in The Grove’s inner courtyard. Jarell Greene, a history junior and resident of The Grove who does not live in one of the four apartments with a balcony, said The Grove staff has not made any announcements about the balconies, nor have they posted warnings that the balconies are unsafe. Greene said it wasn’t a big deal that there were doors opening onto the balconies, but thought it was wrong that they did not lock the doors.

“They shouldn’t have had access to t hem, any way,” Greene said. “It worries me a little bit, [that they ignored the building codes] but these are the only places that have them.”

Shimmies, seduction and sparkles steal the spotlight SHARON LYNN

Contributing Writer The lights are low Friday night at Denton’s Simone Lounge as Onyx Fury slinks onto the stage clad in a lacy pink and black twopiece with a matching mask. After much anticipation, the burlesque Soul Show heats up. When the Soul Show was scheduled to begin, a mere eight customers were at the bar. Fifty-three minutes later, about 50 burlesque enthusiasts have crowded into the packed bar, and the show is finally ready to kick off.

The Soul Show, held Sept. 23 at the Simone Lounge in Denton, is one of many burlesque shows that Honey Cocoa Bordeauxx puts on. Bordeauxx is a burlesque dancer and teaches the dance in Denton and Flower Mound. The Soul Show showcased a variety of talents: burlesque solos and group acts, a belly dancer and even a banjo player.

Many are not familiar with the Denton burlesque scene.

Bordeauxx said a good burlesque dancer makes a patron feel as though he or she is the only one in the room.

She admits that when she tells people she does burlesque, most people are not sure what it is.

“They normally pretend like they know what it is, and then later on, they’ll be like, ‘So… You take off your clothes?’” she said, laughing. “It’s not like a strip club.”

With an arsenal of burlesque awards under her belt, Bordeauxx is no stranger to the spotlight.

She won “Most Classic” at the Southern-Fried Burlesque March this year in Atlanta and was in the top five this May for Hot Rods and Heels 2011 Texas Performer of the Year.

Bordeauxx, 25, graduated from Texas Woman’s University in 2009, earning her bachelor’s degree in sociology. She works full time putting together burlesque shows and teaching burlesque aerobics classes. Performing, to her, is a creative outlet to express herself and live out fantasies.

She said she strives to preserve the art and history of burlesque by sharing the dance in performances and in her classes.

The shows also give the performers an opportunity to have fun with their dance, try new things and interact with the crowd.

Onyx Fury, 25, the only male performer at the show, does the dance style known as “boylesque.” For this show, he said he had to re-think the way he normally dances. “I’m such a fast-paced dancer, so for this show, I had to slow everything down,” Fury explained. The Soul Show gave him the opportunity to experiment with a new dance style, he said.

David Jared, 23, a UNT graduate student working on his

teaching certification, has been to a few of their shows.

“You could tell some of the guys were a little tense at first to see a guy dancer,” Jared said. But after a while, he said guys in the crowd loosened up and seemed OK with it because “he really is one of best dancers [he’d] seen at any of the shows.”

His popularity was made clear by the overwhelming cheers of the crowd every time he took the stage. He has only been dancing

for a year and four months, with no previous dance experience, and he has dedicated a great deal of his time to practicing to hone his talent.

“My right a-- cheek is Pinky, my left a-- cheek is Brain, and we’re about to take over the world,” Fury said.

If you’re interested in finding out what burlesque is like firsthand, you can catch the Black Magic Burlesque show at 10 p.m. Oct. 22. The Simone Lounge is at 222 W. Hickory St. just off the Square.

For those who are feeling a little more adventurous, try Honey Cocoa’s Burlesque Aerobics classes held at 7 p.m. Monday nights at the Green Space Arts Collective in Denton for $15 a class. For more information, visit www. thehoneycocoa.com.

It’s been eight long years since Blink-182 released its last album and during that time the band has broken up. Some of the members started new bands and drummer Travis Barker was in a plane crash that took the life of close friend DJ AM. With all that in mind, the men went through more than enough to sing about in their latest album, “Neighborhoods.”

Blink-182 is made up of lead singer a nd g uita r ist Tom DeLonge, bass guitarist Mark Hoppus and drummer Barker.

The album starts off with “Ghost On The Dance Floor.”

The song is about DJ AM and is a gloomy yet heartfelt tune.

Hoppus leads the track with his catchy guitar riffs introducing DeLonge’s soulful voice. Lyrics like “I saw your ghost tonight/ I know it felt so real/Your eyes they write on mine/ The music starts to heal,” prove that their time spent apart helped the band do some growing up.

Their first single, “Up All Night,” sounds a little more like DeLonge’s other band, Angels & Airwaves, than Blink-182.

It’s a good song, but for the first single, they should’ve gone with “Heart’s All Gone,” the second single on the album.

“Heart’s All Gone” shines the light on Hoppus and Barker’s amazing skills. It starts off with a small drum solo by Barker, which gives it an upbeat tempo before it segways to Hoppus’ edgy voice, making this song one you can belt out at the top

of your lungs and really rock out to.

Concert The album that was released Tuesday was just the beginning for Blink-182 fans in Dallas. Later that day, the band members celebrated the release of their album headlining the Honda Civic Tour with Matt & K im a nd My Chemica l Romance at the Gexa Energy Pavilion.

“Get ready for action!” Those were the words that kicked off the show Tuesday night opening with their 2003 hit “Feeling This,” a perfect fit to get the crowd pumped. The arena was packed with fans filling the lawn section from top to bottom, leaving only enough room for fans to pump their fists in the air.

To celebrate the release of their sixth album, the guys played four of their new songs that included their first two singles and “After Midnight,” but it was their greatest hits that had fans singing along.

The guys goofed around introducing songs like “Always,” by saying it was about vagina and played fan favorites like “Rock Show” and “I Miss You.” The show closed out with a big confetti explosion to “Damnit” that followed Barker’s impressive drum solo, which was delivered from a stage held up by crowd members as he drifted over the mosh pit with his drum set.

The show was filled with strobe lights and colorful backgrounds all through the night.

It just goes to show that some time apart isn’t always that bad.

Students accused of SAT scam GERALDINE BAUM (MCT)

NEW YORK - A 19-year-old college student was arrested and charged Tuesday with taking college entrance exams for six Long Island high school students in excha nge for payments of up to $2,500.

Sam Eshaghoff, a 2010 graduate of Great Neck North High School and second-year student at Emory University in Atlanta, faces charges for scheming to defraud and criminal impersonation that carry a sentence of up to four years in jail.

The six current students at

Great Neck North were arrested on misdemeanor charges.

Eshaghoff, who prosecutors say used the money he raised as a test taker to pay for a gym membership, was led in handcuffs Tuesday afternoon into a Long Island courtroom, where he pleaded not guilty and was held on $1,000 bond or $500 bail.

His mother left court without commenting. The six high school students, whose names were being withheld because of their ages, were arraigned in a closed courtoom Tuesday, leav ing w it hout comment

and with coats draped over their heads, according to The Associated Press.

Nassau Count y District Attorney Kathleen Rice said in a statement that teachers at Great Neck North, considered one of the best schools in the U.S., had heard rumors earlier this year that someone using fraudulent identification was taking the SAT for students.

Adminstrators rev iewed records of Great Neck North students who had taken the SAT at other schools, where proctors wouldn’t know them.

The administrators found large

discrepancies between the SAT scores and the academic performance of the six students who have been charged.

Prosecutors say Eshaghoff flew home from Atlanta at least once primarily to impersonate two students and that he took the SAT twice in one weekend.

Eshaghoff allegedly demanded a fee of between $1,500 and $2,500 per student to take a test.

Rice’s office is investigating whether he also took the exam for students at other high schools in Nassau County. ETS spokesman Tom Ewing said this kind of scandal involving a breach in the ETS security standards is rare.

“It’s not an issue that surfaces very often,” Ewing said in an interview. “The vast majority of cheating cases involve one student copying off another.”

Rice used the arrests Tuesday to warn students taking SATs this Saturday that “if you cheat, you can face serious criminal consequences.”

Freshman goalie embraces leadership role BOBBY LEWIS

goalkeeper’s job in 2009, eventually leading the team to 19 straight shutouts as a senior.

W hen Kerest i ne wa s a freshman, the job belonged to Mandy Hall, who became UNT’s all-time leader in shutouts and saves before graduat i ng a f ter la st sea son.

Kerestine is once again being relied on to fill the void Hall left with the Mean Green.

“My biggest thing is that I definitely want to win conference,” Kerestine said. “I just want to take this program to a whole new level.”

Senior Staff Writer With 11 minutes left in the Mean Green women’s soccer team’s victory over Middle Tennessee on Saturday, freshman goalkeeper Jackie Kerestine did what USA Today called one of the “Hardest 10 Things To Do In Sports” for the first time in her UNT career.

In the 11th game with the Mean Green, she stopped a penalty kick from junior midfielder Whitney Jorgenson to preserve the second shutout of her UNT career.

“I was really nervous because it’s just really hard to judge which side they’re going to kick to,” Kerestine said. “They can kick to the side netting or the corners, so it’s just really hard to tell which way they’re going to go.”

The poise Kerestine showed is why UNT head coach John Hedlund said she has performed like an upperclassman for the Mean Green halfway through her first season.

A key part of the freshman’s success is her height. Kerestine stands at 6-feet-1-inch, making her the tallest soccer player in the Sun Belt Conference and the third tallest female athlete at UNT. “She comes out on the field, and the other team looks at her like, ‘Holy smokes,’ you know,” said Matt Montayne, UNT’s goalkeeper coach. “You put her in that

Goalie Jackie Kerestine ranks fourth in the Sun Belt Conference with an average of 1.17 goals allowed. The history freshman from Colleyville has started 10 of the 11 games she’s played this semester, and at 6-feet-1-inch, she is both the tallest female soccer player in the Sun Belt Conference. goal, and it’s a real big advantage, her being as tall as she is.

She spreads her arms, and she’s already taking up half the goal.”

Early connections Kerestine was born in Euless with connections to UNT dating

back four decades before she ever stepped on campus.

Her parents met at UNT and her father, Paul Kerestine, played nose tackle for the Mean Green football team in the late 1970s.

“Well, I played a long, long time ago, so I don’t really think that

had anything to do with her decision to go to North Texas,” he said.

“But we just let Jackie make her own decisions when it came to that and she chose [UNT].”

Kerestine said she chose UNT because of her family’s connections with the university and

Denton and so her parents could watch her play.

However, another UNT connection makes it seem like Kerestine was almost destined to come to UNT. At Colleyville Heritage High School, Kerestine took over the

UNT and beyond Off the field, the history buff is majoring in the subject and wants to teach it after graduation, but for now, her role is being a young leader for a 7-3-1 UNT team.

“It’s a lot of pressure because you have to take on a lot of responsibility,” she said. “It’s up to you to tell your defenders where to go and things like that, so it’s a lot to deal with.”

As many UNT opponents have found out this season, it’s a role she’s embraced.

“Jackie really is a sweet kid,” Paul Kerestine said. “But she’s like a different person when she’s on the soccer field. It’s like some kind of switch goes off and things change.”

Cross-country teams to face national powers AUSTIN SCHUBERT Staff Writer

The men’s and women’s crosscountry teams will travel to Stillwater, Okla., for Saturday’s 75th annual Cowboy Jamboree, America’s oldest cross-country meet.

Facing a field including men’s defending national champion Oklahoma State and perennial power Oklahoma, UNT will compete in its largest meet this season.

Head coach Sam Burroughs said the competiton could involve up to 15 teams.

The men and women will step into uncharted territory at the Jamboree as they each add 2km to their races, increasing to 8km and 6km respectively.

“The first two meets of the season were basically preseason competitions, but this one will actually count,” Burroughs said.

“We’ve been preparing for the longer distances, but you have to wait until the races to see the effect of the training.”

In addition to the increased

distance, the Jamboree course will include rolling hills and other obstacles.

“You start out the race going uphill and then have to run on loose wood chippings, but I think the hill repeats we’ve worked on all season long have prepared us for this race,” senior Michael Sandoval said.

The men hope to rebound from

increased training mileage, Sandoval said he believes the eight men competing will show much improvement.

“Our increased training should translate over into our races, but we have to race smart,” Sandoval said. “I think our guys learned from going out too fast last meet and will control their adrenaline at the start this time.”

On the women’s side, senior Sara Dietz will compete in her first meet of the season at the Jamboree. After earning All-Sun Belt honors last season, Dietz said she is more prepared to compete than ever before.

“For a long time, I considered

myself middle distance instead of long distance, but coach Burroughs has helped me get in excellent cross-country shape,” Dietz said. “This will help me mentally when I feel tired.”

Along with Dietz, eight others look to build off their first meet and make up for this week’s absence of top runner senior Ingrid Mollenkopf at the Jamboree. Mollenkopf, who will miss the meet to take a test Saturday.

“Everyone on the team is happy where we are, but it’s clear that each of them wants to be the best on the team,” Dietz said. “None of them are satisfied.”

Paulitics: Win over Hoosiers offered glimpse of team’s future Opinion PAUL BOTTONI

Senior Staff Writer In recent years at Fouts Field, there was many a game where more energy could be found at a Kenny G concert. The same could not be said about the first two games at Apogee Stadium.

In games against Houston and Indiana, the Apogee crowd energy resembled a true college atmosphere. The two games provided a glimpse into what the new UNT tradition could be in its full potential.

A combined attendance of 49,256 filled Apogee for the Houston and Indiana games.

It was the largest two-game attendance figure in UNT history, surpassing the old record of 48,708 in 2000 when the Mean Green played Baylor and Samford.

That number is, perhaps,

Paul Buttoni padded by attendees showing up to experience the new flagship of UNT football – Apogee – but students also came in droves and made themselves heard.

In both games, Houston and Indiana committed false starts and burned timeouts because of the crowd noise.

A rowdy, earsplitting crowd is what shapes a team’s home field advantage. Apogee was designed to amplify noise, so students and fans alike: Make noise.

For all the progress that was made, there was one glaring issue.

Un d e r s t a n d a b l y, f a n s thirsting for a victory sometimes let their emotions get the better of themselves. Such was the case following UNT’s 24-21 victory over the Indiana Hoosiers on Saturday.

Once t he f ina l whist le sounded and the Mean Green secured its first win since Nov. 13, 2010, a good number of fans – mainly students – rushed the field in celebration.

This move was a fan code violation. If the win had been against a ranked opponent, by all means storm the field, but not for defeating a 1-2 unranked Hoosiers team that nearly beat the Mean Green after rallying with 21 fourth-quarter points.

The next UNT home game is against Sun Belt Conference foe Florida Atlantic on Oct. 8. Fans need to continue the tradition started in the first two home games. This is not only a new era for Mean Green football, but also for UNT fandom.

Mean Green faces Sun Belt foes in the Bayou A LEX YOUNG

State of the Team

Staff Writer

A week after splitting its first two conference games, the UNT volleyball team will travel to Louisiana to face Sun Belt opponents Louisiana Monroe (7-6, 1-2) and Louisiana-Lafayette (8-11, 0-3).

The Mean Green (10-7, 1-1) enters the game in second place in the Sun Belt West Division, but errors have plagued UNT all season.

Head coach Ken Murczek said he has not been pleased by UNT’s 63 attack errors in its last two matches.

“Every day in practice we are trying to make a premium on not making as many errors,” he said. “There is a fine line between scoring a point and missing by a foot.”

The Mean Green is hitting .184 in its last five matches and is 3-2 in those games.

However, UNT’s .178 hitting percentage for the season is ninth highest in the Sun Belt, ranking above only Denver and FIU. Those teams have a combined 7-21 record so far this season.

On Sunday, senior libero Sarah Willey became the second player in school history to reach the 1,500-dig plateau and now ranks second in UNT history with 1,512 for her career.

“It’s only an important accolade if it helps the team win,” Willey said. “I am proud of the

-Freshman outside hitter Eboni Godfrey anchored the Mean Green attack all season, leading the team with 3.17 kills per set.

The last time a freshman led the team in kills was in 2000, when the Mean Green’s all-time kills leader Corina Marginas led UNT with 4.41 kills per set.

-The Mean Green’s win over Florida Atlantic on Saturday was head coach Ken Murczek’s 30th win in his 50th match at UNT. Murczek has the secondhighest win percentage through 50 games in school history.

Willey needs 359 more to crack the Sun Belt Top-5.

UNT at ULM, 6 p.m. Friday The Warhawks will be riding

high after breaking an 83-match Sun Belt losing streak Sunday by defeating in-state rival LouisianaLafayette.

Sophomore outside hitter Blanca Ocana led the team with 14 kills in the match. ULM ranks

fourth in the SBC in opponent hitting percentage, right above UNT with .167. UNT ranks first in the Sun Belt with 388 attack errors on the season. Both teams have struggled on the block, so the front row will be a battle all

UNT at Louisiana-Lafayette, 12 p.m. Sunday UNT will end its weekend in Louisiana against the Ragin Cajuns. The Cajuns pose a servereceive challenge for the Mean

Green, ranking second in the Sun Belt with 1.59 service aces per set.

Sophomore libero Taylor Meade has led the way, ranking first in the SBC with 31 aces.

However, Louisiana-Lafayette ranks near the bottom of the SBC in almost every other major category. UNT should have the edge here if it can hold the Cajuns under .200 percent hitting for the match and maintains an aggressive attack with its hitters.

Prediction: UNT shakes the error bug and leaves Louisiana with a 3-1 confernece record.

Looking ahead: Three Mean Green games to watch SEAN GORMAN Now in the sixth week of the semester, the games are gaining importance and the intensity level is growing for Mean Green athletics.

Wit h Sun Belt play now under way, the teams’ journeys to capturing a conference title have begun and ever y game on the schedule could determine their fate in 2011.

As the Mean Green teams try to work their way up the Sun Belt standings, here are three games UNT fans can’t afford to miss this fall.

Sports’ Jerry Palm. Hopes for UNT to play in its first postseason game since 2004 are alive, but the ULL has proven itself as a team that could squash t hose aspirat ions.

The Cajuns (3-1) shocked the world with a road win over conference favorite Florida International and the team is now in a position to contend for a Sun Belt title. Based on the season’s first four games, this will be UNT’s toughest test and will be a must win if UNT is in the hunt to win its 25th conference championship.

Sophomore running back Brandin Byrd tries to avoid a tackle in UNT’s win against Indiana Saturday. The Mean Green will play a pivotal game when it faces Louisiana-Lafayette Oct. 15. but this game will happen one week before t he start of t he conference tournament. Keep in mind that the Mea n Green w ill face t he tea ms responsible for t he

last six Sun Belt Conference titles, Middle Tennessee and Western Kentuck y, on t he road before facing the Red Wolves. If the Mean Green struggles in those contests, it

could gain important ground in the West Division standings with a home victory over ASU. Don’t be surprised if the teams’ tournament seedings are decided when they face off

For the last five years, it’s been the same story for UNT. The team plays Denver in a game with tournament implications and falls short for a ha ndf u l of reasons. Head coach John Hedlund has never had a losing season, but if the Mean Green wants to take the next step and become a conference powerhouse, the first step is the beat the Lady Pioneers. For the first time in three years UNT will play host to Denver, but the challenge will still exist. After all, when the team v isited the Lady Pioneers in last season’s capper, Denver was ranked No. 22. Mea n Green fa ns can help UNT soccer claim a higher seed in the Sun Belt Tournament by creating a hostile environment for the Lady Pioneers. Given recent history, UNT will need all the help it can get.

Mean Green Trivia UNT senior libero Sarah Willey ranks second in Mean Green volleyball history with 1,512 career digs. Who ranks first?

Answer: UNT’s all-time leader in digs is former Mean Green player Jessica Hulsebosch. Hulsebosch played from 2004-2007 before serving as a UNT assistant coach for two years.

It seems appropriate that the only person who answered the question correctly on the NTDaily Sports Twitter, @NTDailySports, was the player our question was based on! Congratulations Sarah Willey!

Don’t discriminate against skaters

UNT getting rid of it asbestos they can Editorial An NT Daily reporter left her class in Sage Hall to use the bathroom when she noticed a label warning people of asbestos – a naturally occurring carcinogen once used to insulate buildings. Not paying much attention, she continued about her business. When she returned the next day, though, the sticker had been removed.

The label wasn’t removed because UNT took care of its asbestos problem overnight. Instead, the university removed it out of fear that a mass panic attack would break out if students and parents were aware of the problem.

In other words, the university is afraid you’ll be afraid so it’s just better you not know at all.

That’s a terrible way to approach a situation.

It comes as no surprise that the older buildings on campus like the Biology Building, Life Science Complex A, the Art Building, the Music Building and the Hurley Administration Building all contain asbestos.

Before you worry, there are two forms of asbestos.

According to UNT’s asbestos management planner – yes, that is his actual job title – asbestos is dangerous when it is friable because it can be easily crumbled and easily inhaled. Most of the asbestos on campus is nonfriable and does not pose a danger to students or faculty members.

Even so, non-friable asbestos can become dangerous if it is disturbed. Luckily, UNT has a plan that’s been in place for 15 years to ensure non-friable is not disturbed while it updates and renovates buildings.

Sure, UNT has a strategy for workers to remove the asbestos, but it is a problem in itself to expect students and faculty members to precariously coexist with a material that can cause rare forms of cancer like malignant mesothelioma.

Last year, UNT administration sent out an email to inform students that bed bugs found their way onto the mattresses at Santa Fe and were infiltrating the Discovery Park campus. The email listed tips on how students could prevent bed bugs from spreading and assured students that it was addressing the problem, and there was no big freak out when the message reached students’ inboxes.

The Editorial Board believes the administration should address the asbestos problem in the same manner, just like it should have done from the beginning.

UNT administrators think there is no reason to worry, but its students always have the right to be informed. It is naïve not to be forthcoming about such an alarming issue if the sole rationale is to prevent students from becoming alarmed.

Once again, to reiterate, someone gets paid to manage our asbestos problem. It is a problem.

A male student walks into the Pohl Recreation Center carr ying a long and heav y item. As he checks in with his student ID, a center employee notices the item, stops the male student and tells him it is banned from the premises. The student walks to a locker as the employee yells after him to let him know the police will be notified.

The long, sleek item is not a gun. It is not a type of knife. It is a wooden long board.

UNT has a policy against having skateboards or long boards in any of its facilities.

This might be a surprise to some because many students take their boards with them into ma ny UNT faci lit ies without being threatened with

a call to the police.

Accord i ng to a Poh l employee, t he Recreat ion Center is one of the few UNT facilities that actually enforces this unfair policy.

While student cyclists are provided bike racks where they can safely tether their bicycles, skate-boarders have no choice but to hide their boards in bushes and shrubs surrounding the buildings they enter.

Yet long boards, which can cost as much as $200, are some students’ only means of transportation besides riding the bus and are left vulnerable to being stolen.

The UNT administration has two options to end this blatant inequality.

UNT can change the vehicle policy to allow board owners to carry their boards inside UNT facilities while increasing punishment for those who choose to ride their boards inside these facilities.

If UNT does not want to go that route, it can install skateboard and long board racks near all UNT facilities to keep the boards out but still prevent theft. That would let board owners keep their property safe and prevent wear and tear of UNT facilities.

A s a n establishment of higher education, UNT has t he dut y to accommodate equally for all of its students regardless of race, gender, sexual orientation, religion, nationa lit y, disabilit y, age

AND transportation.

After all, skaters are people too.

This week, I’m going to alienate some folks, including some of my friends.

I n t he c om i n g w e ek s, our City Council will begin d iscussion on a potent ia l cit y w ide smok i ng ba n i n restaurants, bars and other work places.

Talk of such a ban has been c om monplac e i n v a r iou s Denton circles; the universit y’s Student Government Association has considered a ca mpus ba n of f a nd on throughout the last few years, and at a state level, Rep. Myra Crow nover (R-Denton) has pushed for a si m i la r ba n every biennium that she has been a member of the Texas Legislature.

The notion of these bans has been easily shot down: Campus police came back to the SGA stating they do not have the sufficient means or

wherewithal to always look out for smoking in improper areas.

Rep. C r ow nov er k e ep s introducing her legislation, but various health and budget committees keep shooting her down.

Many people see smoking as a basic right and priv ilege common to A merican l i fe, f u r t her i ng t he d issidence. Add it iona l ly, t here is an argument that if a bar, restaurant or venue becomes smoke-f ree, attenda nce at large events, shows and the like would take a significant hit.

T h is is how I see it: If passed, it can help.

People are not going to stop watching and enjoying music at ba rs a nd venue spaces because t hey ca n’t smoke there. People will still drink and be merry regardless.

If a ny t h i ng, enact i ng a smok ing ban could potentially increase the number of cash-happy, bored people filling out these venues!

Friends like a few of my roommates a nd my f ia ncé have explicitly stayed away from these environments for the smoking, and they have missed out on so much for it.

I would love to see the day when they are on an equal foot i ng to ex per ience t he entertainment and camaraderie that makes these places special.

Now, I still empathize with my fellows who do wish to retain the comfort of their cigarettes. I understand; it’s f un, rela x ing a nd at some subconscious level, some people see it a s a necessit y. But to echo representat ives f rom ou r g row i ng medical community within

the Denton city limits, yes, smoking is still bad for you.

If nothing else, I say let’s go after this, Denton. If you think likewise or completely ot her w i se, ma ke su re to let your Counci l members know!

Do you agree with Rick Perry supporting a law that allows immigrants to pay in-state tuition?

{ {

“Personally, I agree with Rick Perry. Immigrants are a large part of our country and they deserve the same tuition rights as we do. Immigrants play a huge role in our school system, so Perry is right for standing by this Texas law.”

Jonathan Ray

Accounting sophomore

“I agree wholeheartedly. Who are we to say that students from across seas or borders can’t come to America to get an education and better themselves because of it?

Some people dream of coming here and starting a new life, and I’m not going to be the one to tell them no because of stupid prejudice.”
