WSG  appeal  changes election

The  Perry/Tomachek  slate  successfully  appealed  to  the  Whitewater  Student  Government  WSG  on  March  10,  after  being  GLVTXDOLÂż HG IURP WKH HOHFWLRQ EDO lot  on  March  6,  due  to  missing  signatures.  Nathan  Perry  and  Lucas  Tom-­ achek  were  two  signatures  short  in  the  Drumlin  district,  and  one  signature  short  overall.  The  pair  needed  12  votes  to  overturn  the  disqualification  Perry and  reinstate  the  slate  to  the  bal-­ lot.  The  appeal  was  passed  with  12  approvals,  6  disapprovals  and  1  abstention.  Perry  said  that  although  he  was  “optimisticâ€?  going  into  the  appeal,  he  was  “prepared  for  the  worst.â€?

Before  the  vote,  Jon  Fera,  intergovernmental  affairs  direc-­ tor,  said,  “voting  for  this  motion  would  be  going  against,  basically,  the  validity  of  our  standing  rules  and  it  will  make  it  acceptable  to  do  this  in  the  future.�

Justice:

By Vesna Brajkovic Senior  Staff  Writer

Six  different  groups,  normally  with  six  different  missions,  will  team  up  for  a  week  to  share  one  common  goal:  awareness.  Justice  Week,  which  started  March  10  and  runs  through  March  13,  is  a  collaborative  event  of  sev-­ eral  of  the  justice  organizations  that  will  come  together  in  order  to  raise  awareness  on  various  topics  throughout  the  week.  Cassie  Steiner,  president  of  Freedom  Force,  a  group  dedicated  to  bringing  change  and  awareness  about  modern-­day  slavery  and  hu-­ PDQ WUDIÂż FNLQJ said  she  saw  the  lack  of  collabora-­ tion  between  the  Steiner different  student  organizations  and  dedicated  the  semester  to  changing  that.  She  said  although  they  all  have  different  missions,  they  all  can  come  together  to  “spark  conversationâ€?  between  the  groups  and  throughout  campus.   “People  who  are  involved,  stay  involved,â€?  Steiner  said.  “Students  and  community  members  who  care  about  one  cause  will  generally  be  ac-­ tive  in  the  community  and  continue  to  use  what  they  learn.  So,  I  think  that  by  working  together  we  can  know  what  one  another  are  doing Â

organizations  team  up  to  spread  social  awareness  on  campus

and  we  can  be  engaged.â€?  Each  day  of  the  week  is  dedicat-­ ed  to  showcasing  a  different  student  organization’s  cause.  Take  Back  The  Tap,  a  campaign  aiming  to  end  the  sale  and  distri-­ bution  of  single-­use  plastic  water  bottles,  started  Justice  Week  by  ta-­ bling  in  the  University  Center.  They  offered  students  the  option  to  trade  in  their  disposable  water  bottles  for  a  reusable  one  and  had  them  take  a  water  taste  test  between  well-­water,  tap  water,  and  bottled  water.  Empower,  who  also  tabled  in  the  University  Center  on  Monday,  is  a  student  organiza-­ tion  dedicated  to  raising  awareness  of  micro-­lending.  They  spoke  to  stu-­ dents  about  pover-­ Barker ty  alleviation  and  how  their  partner-­ ship  with  kiva.org  has  helped  many  people  through  micro-­lending.  Micro-­lending  is  the  act  of  given  smaller  loans  to  riskier  businesses  with  low  income.  “I  think  [Justice  Week]  is  im-­ portant  because  these  are  all  global  problems,â€?  president  of  Empower  Nathan  Perry  said.  “I  don’t  think  people  realize  that  there’s  poverty  problems  in  the  U.S.,  and  there’s  people  that  need  a  small  amount  of  dollars  to  help  their  business  out.  I  think  that  through  all  these  different  organizations,  we’re  all  making  a Â

‘Era  of  hate,’  focus  of  lecture

By Alexandria Zamecnik Assistant  News  Editor

Being  the  catalyst  for  change,  showing  events  happening  around  the  world  and  creating  a  tolerant  society  were  the  goals  of  the  Warhawk  Connection  Center  when  it  showed  the  movie,  “Jour-­ ney  to  a  Hate  Free  Millennium.�

The  documentary  about  the  exploration  of  hate  crimes  in  America,  “Journey  to  a  Hate  Free  Millennium�  looks  at  the  Col-­ umbine  shootings,  the  murder  of  Matthew  Shepard  and  other  crimes.  After  the  audience  members  watched  the  documentary,  they  were  asked  to  place  cards  on  their  foreheads  and  interact  with  other  members  of  the  audience.  Each  person  did  not  know  what  his  or  her  own  card  said.

Some  of  the  cards  said,  “a  person  diagnosed  with  AIDS,�  “a  mother  who  has  committed  child  abuse�  and  “a  person  who  is  in  a  gang.�

The  audience  members  were  expected  to  treat  each  other  ac-­ cordingly  to  the  person’s  card.  Shavaughn  Lawson,  the  in-­ tern  in  charge  of  planning  the  award-­winning  presentation,  said  she  chose  this  event  because  it  is  appealing  to  more  students.  “Not  only  do  you  get  shown  a Â

movie,  but  you  get  the  audience  to  interact  with  one  another,�  Lawson  said.  Lawson  said  she  wants  stu-­ dents  to  take  away  that  they  can  be  the  change  they  hope  to  see  in  the  world.  “As  a  soci-­ ety,  our  toler-­ Lawson ance  levels  are  kind  of  low,�  Lawson  said.  “We  aren’t  very  happy  to  accept  things.  We  need  to  up  our  tolerance  levels.�

David  Shears,  a  student  at  UW-­Whitewater,  said  he  went  to  one  diversity  event  for  an  eco-­ nomics  class  and  was  pulled  back  to  the  other  events.  “I’ve  actually  been  learning  a  lot,�  Shears  said.  “I  want  to  hear  other  people’s  stories  and  see  other  people’s  point  of  views.�  After  viewing  the  presenta-­ tion  and  listening  to  others’  reac-­ tions,  Shears  said  it  helped  him  understand  the  true  meaning  and  impact  that  diversity  week  had. “I  learned  about  myself  and  how  it  feels  when  I  live  by  be-­ lieving  stereotypes  and  it  made  me  want  to  change,�  Shears  said.  ZamecnikAE17@uww.edu

By Allyson Karnowski 6WDII :ULWHU

Loretta  Ross,  a  self-­described  “professional  talkerâ€?  and  “profes-­ sional  feminist,â€?  inspired  students  and  locals,  talking  about  a  journey  that  took  her  from  a  painful  child-­ hood  to  becoming  a  vital  part  of  the  human  rights  movement  on  March  5  in  the  Old  Main  Ballroom.  ,Q WKH Âż QDO :RPHQ DQG *HQGHU Cultural  Series  lecture,  Ross  spoke  RQ Âł:RPHQ RI &RORU /HDGHUVKLS and  Reproductive  Justice.â€?  “I  became  a  feminist  because  I  want  better  men,â€?  Ross  said.  “I  want  men  who  don’t  oppress  women,  men  who  treat  them  well.â€?

Heck  said  slates  typically  will  split  up  their  signature  sheets  and  divvy  up  their  responsibility  to  get  signatures,  which  sometimes  re-­ sults  in  duplicates.

In  the  senate  appeal  meeting  Tomachek  admitted  they  did  in  fact  split  up  the  sheets,  and  lack  of  communication  and  a  busy  sched-­ ule  could  have  also  contributed  to  the  problem.

Heck  said  both  slates  turned  everything  in  on  time  with  all  nec-­ essary  sheets  attached.  Perry  said  although  they  put  “a  lot  of  time  and  effort�  into  gather-­ ing  signatures,  they  weren’t  aware  before  the  election  committee  meeting  that  they  didn’t  meet  the  requirement  of  signatures.

The  rules  state  any  slate  seek-­

ing  executive  position  must  obtain  200  student  signatures.  Fifty  of  those  signatures  come  from  each  LQGLYLGXDO GLVWULFW RI :KLWHZD ter:  Drumlin,  Esker  and  At-­Large  (off-­campus  students),  as  well  as  an  extra  50  to  make  up  the  200  overall.  At  the  election  committee  meeting,  Lucretia  Limerick  of  stu-­ dent  affairs,  made  a  motion  to  dis-­ qualify  the  Perry/Tomachek  slate,  DQG 9LFH 3UHVLGHQW '\ODQ :DOG huetter  seconded  it.  The  motion  to  disqualify  the  slate  from  the  ballot  was  passed  after  a  unanimous  vote. /LPHULFN DQG :DOGKXHWWHU VDLG the  motion  to  disqualify  the  slate  was  “only  fair�  because  the  lack  of  signatures  was  a  clear  violation  of  section  11.4  of  the  rules.  “For  us  to  vote  any  other  way  would  have  been  completely  against  our  standing  rules,  so  there  wasn’t  much  of  a  decision  to  be  PDGH ´ :DOGKXHWWHU VDLG Limerick  said  even  though  there  was  some  tension  in  the  room,  it  went  smoothly.  “I  think  [the  situation]  was  dealt  with  very  well,�  Limerick  said.  “All  of  us  acted  appropri-­ ately  towards  the  action,  so  I  don’t  think  there  was  any  hurt  feelings  or  anything  after  the  fact.�

gry  enough  to  want  to  see  a  change  in  the  system.  Ross  soon  went  on  to  volunteer  at  a  rape  crisis  center  and  eventually  became  executive  director,  where  she  said  she  wanted  to  work  to  end  violence  and  help  people  share  their  stories.  In  1985,  Ross  succumbed  to  the  pressure  of  a  new  title  and  had  a  feminist  “coming  out  party.�  She  said  while  feminists  tend  to  give  off  a  negative  stigma,  it’s  more  about  believing  in  equality,  freedom  and  ending  oppression.

Being  part  of  the  women’s  rights  movement,  Ross  said  the  most  im-­ portant  thing  is  that  everyone  is  moving  in  the  same  direction    —  to-­ ward  making  a  better  world. Â

SisterSong  is  framed  around  eight  protections  of  human  rights:  civil,  political,  economic,  social,  cul-­ tural,  environmental,  developmen-­ tal,  and  sexual.  Ross  shines  a  light  on  human  and  women’s  rights  at  each  speaking  engagement  she  attends  because  our  stories  “are  not  out  of  a  book,â€?  she  VDLG :KHWKHU JRRG RU EDG 5RVV HQ courages  everyone  to  tell  their  story  for  the  sake  of  the  movement.  6HQLRU %ULWWDQ\ :HQGW VDLG VKH was  compelled  to  share  part  of  her  story  with  the  audience,  feeling  em-­ powered  after  hearing  of  similar  life  experiences  from  Ross. “I  have  a  very  similar  story,â€?  :HQGW VDLG Âł, QRZ KDYH D IRXU \HDU old  daughter,  and  have  been  try-­ ing  to  go  to  college  for  seven  years  now.â€? :HQGW LV FXUUHQWO\ ZRUNLQJ RQ a  degree  in  inter-­ national  studies,  graduating  in  De-­ cember.  She  was  especially  touched  listening  to  Ross  recount  her  strug-­ gling  years  in  col-­ Wendt lege  with  a  young  child.  “It’s  inspiring  to  hear  stories  like  Loretta’s,  and  I  feel  empowered  by  WKH RQHV VLPLODU WR PLQH ´ :HQGW said.

Student  Chamber  of  Com-­ merce  (SCoC)  is  an  organization  that  connects  students  and  small  businesses  in  the  Whitewater  area.  It  provides  a  platform  for  small  businesses  to  advertise  on  campus.  UW-­Whitewater  is  the  only  school  in  Wisconsin  to  have  this  program  within  the  university. “Student  Chamber  of  Com-­ merce  is  a  really  unique  oppor-­ tunity  for  businesses  in  the  local  Whitewater  area  to  come  in  and  advertise  on  campus,�  Chair  of  Chamber  of  Commerce  Nathan  Perry  said.  “They  pay  a  fee,  and  then  we  take  that  money  and  give  it  back  to  student  entrepre-­ neurs.�

SCoC  was  founded  by  Dan  Fink,  Abbie  Murphy  and  Patrick  Johnson  in  fall  2012. Â

“We  just  actually  launched  our  website  so  that  businesses  can  register  online,  and  they  can  know  all  about  what  we  do  and  why  we  are  focusing  on  stu-­ dents,�  Perry  said.

Fink  said  SCoC  offers  its  services  now  by  allowing  busi-­ nesses  to  mar-­ ket  on  campus,  which  was  not  possible  be-­ fore,  due  to  UW-­W  system  rules  and  regu-­ lations.

Perry “There  are  a  lot  of  student  businesses  on  campus  that  they  need  a  little  marketing  help  or  they  need  a  little  legal  advice,â€?  Perry  said.  “They  don’t  know  how  they  VKRXOG Âż OH 7KH\ ZRXOG MXVW OLNH a  few  tips,  so  we  want  to  provide  that  to  them  for  free.â€? Â

SCoC  is  making  new  chang-­ HV WR H[SDQG WKH EHQHÂż W WKHLU organization  offers.  Perry  said  they  are  working  on  contracts  with  consultants  who  can  po-­ tentially  provide  consulting  to  students  to  help  them  grow  their  businesses. “We  are  going  to  get  con-­ sultants  in  for  legal  advice,  for  ¿ QDQFLDO DGYLFH DQG IRU PDUNHW ing  advice,â€?  Perry  said.  “They  can  help  students  grow  their  businesses  and  make  them  more  successful.â€?

Along  with  looking  into  pro-­ viding  consulting,  SCoC  also  is  working  on  giving  grants  to  student  businesses,  Perry  said.  They  are  currently  trying  to  work  through  some  legal  issues  in  order  to  be  able  to  give  grants.

Fink  said  originally  SCoC  was  focused  on  giving  micro  loans  for  students,  but  the  group Â

does  not  do  micro  loans  any-­ more  due  to  the  legal  issues  that  come  with  it.  “If  you  are  a  student,  our  membership  is  heavily  discount-­ ed;͞  we  don’t  even  make  any  money  on  it,�  Perry  said.  “If  you  are  an  outside  business,  obvi-­ ously  we  need  to  make  a  little  bit  of  money,  and  that  money  then  goes  through  bringing  in  people  to  teach  students  skills  so  they  can  run  their  business.

Students  have  to  pay  $50  a  semester  in  order  to  become  a  member  of  SCoC;͞  local  busi-­ nesses,  however,  have  to  pay  $100  a  semester.

U.S.  should  back  Ukraine,  but  not  with  military Royal Purple Editorial  Staff  Opinion

As  the  issues  in  Ukraine  continue  to  escalate,  so  does  involvement  from  other  countries.

Recently  added  to  the  list  of  countries  having  some  sort  of  participation  in  the  East-­ ern  European  political  clash  is  the  United  States.

No  matter  how  much  its  stake  in  the  con-­ ÀLFW LQFUHDVHV KRZHYHU WKH 8QLWHG 6WDWHV should  avoid  military  backing  of  Ukraine  at  all  costs.  A  little  more  than  a  week  ago,  Russian  President  Vladimir  Putin  ignored  vague  warnings  from  President  Barack  Obama  and  invaded  Ukraine.  After  a  referendum  was  proposed  by  Russia  to  annex  Ukraine’s  Crimean  penin-­ sula,  where  many  ethnic  Russians  reside,  more  threats  were  directed  toward  Russia  from  the  U.S. Speaking  to  CNN  about  sanctions  al-­ ready  put  in  place  after  Russia  invaded  Ukraine,  Deputy  National  Security  Advisor  Tony  Blinken  hinted  toward  intensifying  United  States  involvement. ³7KLV LV WKH ¿UVW VWHS DQG ZHœYH SXW LQ SODFH D YHU\ ÀH[LEOH DQG YHU\ WRXJK PHFKD-­ nism  to  increase  the  pressure,  to  increase  the  sanctions,�  Blinken  said. )RU $PHULFDQV DQG VSHFL¿FDOO\ FROOHJH students,  it  would  be  best  if  these  measures  would  not  include  military  intervention.

The  current  United  States  national  debt  sits  at  about  $17.5  trillion.  On  average,  the  cost  of  a  United  States  war  is  about  $1  tril-­ OLRQ VLQFH DGMXVWHG IRU LQÀDWLRQ DF-­ cording  to  a  Congressional  Research  Service  report.  The  added  debt  would  continue  to  be  heaped  on  the  backs  of  Americans,  includ-­ ing  college-­aged  citizens  who  will  enter  the  ZRUNIRUFH LQ WKH QH[W ¿YH \HDUV Ukraine  does  deserve  backing  from  the  United  States.  The  Ukrainian  people  are  re-­ volting,  in  short,  against  political  corruption  and  police  violence.

As  a  country  that  was  founded  on  a  war Â

against  political  corruption,  the  cause  is  something  the  United  States  should  get  be-­ hind,  but  there  are  many  reasons  why  mili-­ tary  support  should  be  out  of  the  question.

Taken  into  account  in  the  Congressional  Research  Service  report  is  the  current  United  States  military  occupation  in  Iraq,  Afghani-­ stan  and  other  Middle  Eastern  countries.  This  presents  another  reason  why  sending  our  troops  to  Ukraine  would  be  a  bad  idea.

We  already  have  troops  in  countries  across  the  Middle  Eastern  portion  of  Asia,  so  increasing  the  number  of  troops  we  have  overseas  would  be  sending  more  people  in  our  generation  to  war.  The  average  age  of Â

enlisted  active  duty  United  States  military  members  is  28,  according  to  Defense  Man-­ power  Research.

America  should  focus  on  rehabilitating  and  fostering  growth  in  the  veterans  it  has  already  created  through  the  wars  in  Iraq  and  Afghanistan,  not  creating  new  ones.

There  are  other  routes  to  take  when  sanc-­ tioning  Russia  that  are  not  through  our  mili-­ tary.

The  United  States  already  has  imposed  some  sanctions  against  Russia,  including  visa  bans  and  asset  freezes  on  some  Rus-­ VLDQ RI¿FLDOV 7KH 8 6 JRYHUQPHQW DOVR KDV discussed  preventing  United  States  corpora-­ tions  from  doing  business  with  Russia.

Using  these  sanctions  to  isolate  Russia  is  a  better  decision  for  the  United  States  than  sending  our  military.  If  the  United  States  needs  to  take  its  sanctions  further,  it  should  only  be  in  the  form  of  leading  the  way  on  isolating  Russia  from  other  countries  as  well,  such  as  proposing  sanctions  through  international  organizations  like  the  World  Trade  Organization  or  the  North  Atlantic  Teaty  Organization.  $V WKH FRQÀLFW EHWZHHQ 8NUDLQH DQG Russia  continues  to  grow,  there  is  no  doubt  other  countries  will  become  involved.  It  would  be  ideal  for  American  citizens  and  young  adults  if  the  United  States  does  not  take  any  military  action  in  the  dispute. rp@uww.edu

Country  tribute  band  plays  for  UW-­â&#x20AC;?Whitewater

By Signe Trewyn Staff  Writer

Students  donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t  have  to  leave  campus  to  experience  a  country  music  tribute  show  of  past  legends  Waylon  Jennings,  Willie  Nel-­ son,  Johnny  Cash  and  Kris  Kristofferson.

The  Highwaymen  Live  will  perform  at  7:30  p.m.  on  March  13,  at  Young  Audito-­ rium.  Michael  Moore,  a  member  of  the  tribute  band,  will  model  Willie  Nelson  and  play  with  three  others.  Moore  said  he  has  been  playing  music  since  he  was  a  boy.  He  began  with  the  Moore drums,  learning  everything  from  Elvis  Presley  to  the  Carpenters  to  Me-­ tallica. â&#x20AC;&#x153;When  I  was  young,  I  began  singing  Willie  Nelson  songs,  and  here  I  am  now  with  the  tribute  band,â&#x20AC;?  Moore  said.

Moore  has  been  performing  for  20  years,  and  the  idea  of  the  Highwaymen  began  eight  years  ago.

The  Highwaymen  play  a  variety  of  coun-­ try  hits  from  each  of  the  tribute  artists.

Moore  listed  a  few  songs  on  the  set  list  including  â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;Beer  For  My  Horses,â&#x20AC;&#x2122;  â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;Good  Old  Boys,â&#x20AC;&#x2122;  â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;Seven  Spanish  Angelesâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;  and  â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;Al-­ ways  on  My  Mind.â&#x20AC;&#x2122;

Moore  said  traveling  with  the  Highway-­ men  throughout  the  years  has  been  wonder-­ ful.  The  band  has  attended  a  number  of  ven-­ ues  around  the  country,  and  Moore  said  he  loves  performing  with  the  great  group  of  guys,  while  singing  the  songs  of  country  music  legends.  While  Moore  enjoys  traveling  and  spend-­ ing  time  with  the  band,  he  said  his  favorite  part  of  be-­ ing  on  stage  and  perform-­ ing  is  the  relationship  with  the  audience. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I  promise  there  will  be  a  lot  of  music  in  the  show,â&#x20AC;?  Moore  said.  â&#x20AC;&#x153;The  audience  Sherman is  my  favorite  part  of  the  show  because  of  their  emotions,  and  it  is  a  lot  of  fun  to  play  for  all  of  them.  I  want  the  students  to  be  exposed  to  the  classical  coun-­ try  that  will  be  played  throughout  the  night.â&#x20AC;?  Stacy  Sherman,  associate  marketing  spe-­ cialist  of  the  Young  Auditorium,  said  there  is  a  wide  variety  of  programming  involved  with  the  show  and  the  Young  Auditorium  strives  to  give  the  community  an  interesting  choice  for  entertainment.  â&#x20AC;&#x153;[The  show]  will  appeal  to  a  large  age  group,â&#x20AC;?  Sherman  said.  â&#x20AC;&#x153;The  performers  modeled  themselves  off  of  the  original  su-­ perstars.â&#x20AC;?

The Highwaymen Live, a tribute band dedicated to country musicians Waylon Jennings, Willie Nelson, Johnny Cash and Kris Kristofferson, will perform at 7:30 p.m. on March 13, at the Young Auditorium.

The  main  instrument  the  performers  will  play  is  guitar,  and  the  musical  rendition  is  true  to  the  originals,  Sherman  said.

Sherman  said  a  live  musical  group  is  hosted  once  or  twice  a  season.  â&#x20AC;&#x153;Nothing  compares  to  the  live  perfor-­ mance  of  the  band,  the  lighting  on  the  stage,  the  acoustics  in  the  Young  Auditorium,â&#x20AC;?  Sherman  said.

By Lea Staedtler Staff  Writer

The  Music  and  Theatre  Departments  have  collabo-­ rated  to  perform  a  classical  theatrical  performance  of  â&#x20AC;&#x153;The  Soldierâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s  Tale.â&#x20AC;?  â&#x20AC;&#x153;The  Soldierâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s  Tale,â&#x20AC;?  is  a  classic  piece  by  the  Rus-­ sian  composer  Igor  Stravinsky  from  1918.  It  tells  the  story  of  a  young  soldier  on  leave,  who  encounters  the  devil  on  his  way  home.  The  devil  strikes  a  deal  with  him  and  exchanges  a  book  that  tells  the  future  for  the  VROGLHUÂśV Âż GGOH $OWKRXJK WKH VROGLHU JDLQV JUHDW ZHDOWK ZLWK WKH KHOS RI WKH ERRN KH GRHV QRW Âż QG KDSSLQHVV He  seeks  out  the  devil  and  challenges  him  in  a  poker  game  to  reclaim  his  ¿ GGOH DQG EH KDSS\ RQFH DJDLQ The  play  will  be  held  at  7:30  p.m.  on  March  18,  in  the  Light  Recital  Hall.

Because  Stravinskyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s  piece  was  written  for  musicians,  actors  and  a  Wilkinson narrator,  percussion  professor  Tobie  Wilkinson  approached  Theatre  Department  member  Jim  Butchart  to  be  the  narrator  in  the  production.

Butchart  said  the  storyline  ap-­ pealed  to  him  right  away. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s  an  interesting  story  told  in  an  unusual  way  with  music  and  nar-­ ration,â&#x20AC;?  Butchart  said.  â&#x20AC;&#x153;The  music  is  very  varied  and  interesting.â&#x20AC;?

â&#x20AC;&#x153;I  had  done  the  part  before,  and  I  thought  it  would  be  a  good  opportunity  for  students  both  in  the  audience  and  on  stage,â&#x20AC;?  Butchart  said.

Wilkinson  said  he  enjoyed  the  collaboration  with  the  Theatre  Department. â&#x20AC;&#x153;The  most  exciting  part  is  being  able  to  share  the  stage  with  my  amazing  colleagues  for  this  great  work,  coupled  with  the  great  story  associated  with  the  piece,â&#x20AC;?  Wilkinson  said.  The  instruments  used  in  the  performance  are  violin,  bass,  bassoon,  clarinet,  trumpet,  trombone  and  percus-­ sion,  and  are  all  played  by  faculty  from  the  music  de-­ partment.

Leslie  LaMuro,  associate  director  for  public  events,  said  the  music  in  â&#x20AC;&#x153;The  Soldierâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s  Taleâ&#x20AC;?  makes  the  piece  unique.

The  Music  Mosaics  series  is  one  of  few  occasions  students  get  to  see  fellow  students  collaborate  with  fac-­ ulty  members  on  stage.  â&#x20AC;&#x153;Seeing  faculty  involved  is  always  very  interesting  for  students,â&#x20AC;?  LaMuro  said.  â&#x20AC;&#x153;Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s  something  that  is  not  often  done  because  itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s  combining  different  music  styles  with  acting,  which  is  always  a  unique  route  to  go.â&#x20AC;?

Prices  for  the  performance  are  $3  for  students  and  people  under  18,  $6  for  over  65  and  $7  for  the  general  public.  All  proceeds  will  go  toward  a  scholarship  fund  for  students  in  the  Music  Department.  StaedleL17@uww.edu

Despite  adversity,  Gibson  eyes  national  title From  junior  college  to  two-­time  All-­American Gibson Feature

By Christopher Clapper Staff  Writer

Cedric  Gibson  is  used  to  being  humbled.  He  has  become  close  ac-­ quaintances  with  obstacles,  road-­ blocks  and  naysayers.

His  high  school  wrestling  career  showed  great  promise,  followed  by  great  disappointment.   His  college  wrestling  career  was  the  exact  op-­ posite.  0LVVHG RSSRUWXQLWLHV GHÂż QH D career  that  could  have  been  derailed  if  not  for  a  strong  support  staff  and  a  drive  not  found  in  most  people.  A  week  away  from  his  second  consecutive  trip  to  the  NCAA  Di-­ vision-­III  national  tournament,  Gib-­ son  said  he  needs  no  extra  motiva-­ tion  to  prepare  himself. â&#x20AC;&#x153;My  goal  is  to  be  the  national  champ,  and,  especially  it  being  my  senior  year,  itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;d  be  nice  to  go  out  like  that,â&#x20AC;?  he  said.  3ODLQÂż HOG 1RUWK ZDV D EUDQG new  high  school  and  Gibson  set  the  bar  high  athletically  for  the  entire  student  body.  +H ZDV WKH Âż UVW PDOH DWKOHWH WR qualify  for  the  state  tournament  in  any  sport,  and  he  was  only  a  junior.  His  senior  year  however,  he  hit  KLV Âż UVW PDMRU REVWDFOH â&#x20AC;&#x153;My  senior  year  I  was  ranked  OLNH Âż IWK DOO \HDU DQG , FKRNHG LQ WKH Âż UVW URXQG RI P\ VHFWLRQDO WRXUQD ment  and  was  bumped  out,â&#x20AC;?  he  said.

Senior Cedric Gibson won the Midwest Regional at 165 pounds and earned the fourth seed with an overall record of 22-5.

He has a chance to win a national championship on March 14 and 15, in Cedar Rapids, Iowa.

Soon  after  that,  colleges  came  recruiting  and  UW-­Whitewater  wrestling  head  coach  Tim  Fader  was  impressed  with  what  he  saw.  â&#x20AC;&#x153;He  was  kind  of  a  beginner  wrestler,  but  he  had  just  a  really  strong  work  ethic  and  picked  things  up  really  fast,â&#x20AC;?  Fader  said.  â&#x20AC;&#x153;He  was  really  interested  in  learning,  and  he  was  coachable,  which  you  could  tell  right  away.â&#x20AC;?  After  getting  a  few  semesters  of  Fader college  wrestling  under  his  belt,  a  second  obstacle  would  be  thrown  in  front  of  him,  again  testing  his  mettle. Â

â&#x20AC;&#x153;I  attended  here  [UW-­Whitewa-­ ter]  for  three  semesters,  and  then  I  had  to  go  back  home  for  three  se-­ mesters  because  I  got  academically  dismissed,â&#x20AC;?  Gibson  said.  He  turned  back  to  Illinois  and  went  to  a  community  college  for  three  semesters,  working  40  hours  per  week,  going  to  school  full-­time  and  continuing  to  work  out,  all  with  one  goal  in  mind. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Even  when  people  were  doubt-­ ing  me,  and  I  had  a  lot  of  people  doubting  me,  I  had  it  in  my  mind  as  soon  as  I  left  that  I  was  going  to  be  back,â&#x20AC;?  he  said.  â&#x20AC;&#x153;I  had  to  be  back.â&#x20AC;?

Many  athletes  lose  that  drive  when  they  leave  competition;Íž  they  feel  sorry  for  themselves  and  quit.  For  Gibson,  that  was  never  even Â

a  thought,  and  during  the  next  few  semesters,  he  would  push  himself  physically  and  mentally  harder  than  ever  before.  â&#x20AC;&#x153;When  he  came  back,  he  was  just  changed,â&#x20AC;?  Fader  said.  â&#x20AC;&#x153;He  had  better  time  management,  he  was  more  mature,  and  on  the  wrestling  mat  he  was  really  strong  and  pick-­ ing  things  up  really  fast  and  making  big  gains.â&#x20AC;?

It  was  as  if  he  had  never  left.  He  reeled  off  long  win  streaks  that  sig-­ naled  the  start  of  something  big  to  come.  His  junior  year,  it  happened.

Going  into  the  2013  regional  tournament,  which  decides  who  TXDOL¿ HV IRU QDWLRQDOV *LEVRQ ZDV seeded  third.  He  had  not  even  wres-­ WOHG WKH ¿ UVW KDOI RI WKH VHPHVWHU EH

cause  he  was  not  taking  a  full  course  load,  making  him  academically  in-­ eligibile. $IWHU D E\H DQG ZLQQLQJ KLV ¿ UVW two  matches,  Gibson  quickly  found  KLPVHOI LQ WKH ¿ QDOV QRWKLQJ EXW DQ upset  in  the  championship  would  VXI¿ FH +H HYHQWXDOO\ FDPH RXW ZLWK a  3-­1  victory  and  a  regional  cham-­ pionship.

The  good  times  kept  coming  for  Gibson  after  placing  third  in  the  national  tournament  and  achieving  All-­American  honors  last  year.

He  has  everyone  else  around  him  believing  in  him,  too,  includ-­ ing  assistant  wrestling  coach  Cade  Sarbacker.  â&#x20AC;&#x153;He  is  motivated,  he  has  his  pri-­ orities  straight,  not  only  in  wrestling  but  in  life  and  I  think  by  the  end  of  this  year  heâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s  going  to  achieve  KLV JRDO DQG Âż QLVK RQ WRS QDWLRQDO champ,â&#x20AC;?  Sarbacker  said.  National  champion:  those  are  two  words  that  not  many  people  would  have  used  to  describe  Gib-­ son  not  long  ago.   After  overcoming  adversity  of  all  kinds,  not  much  Sarbacker phases  him  now.  His  determination  will  not  allow  him  to  become  distracted,  and  his  personality  wonâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t  allow  him  to  be  intimidated.  All  thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s  left  to  do  is  capture  what  has  been  so  elusive  to  him  for  four  long  years.

The  â&#x20AC;&#x2122;Hawks  could  possibly  meet  up  with  UW-­Stevens  Point  for  the  fourth  time  this  season  in  the  Elite  Eight.  The  â&#x20AC;&#x2122;Hawks  have  lost  to  the  Pointers  both  times  on  the  road,  but  they  did  hand  them  their  only  loss  of  the  season  at  home  on  Feb.  5. â&#x20AC;&#x153;The  big  thing  is  we  have  to  avoid  everyone  talking  about  us  playing  Stevens  Point  because  we  both  have  to  win  a  game  prior  to  that  happening,â&#x20AC;?  Miller  said.

The  â&#x20AC;&#x2122;Hawks  will  travel  to  Ste-­ vens  Point  to  play  the  No.  16  Univer-­ sity  of  Texas-­Dallas  Comets  (27-­3)  on  March  14  after  they  hit  a  game-­ winning  buzzer-­beater  3-­pointer  against  Whitworth.
