Mustangs get ready to take on Cougars After last year’s defeat by Washington State Cougars, SMU Mustangs gear up for win By JORDAN JENNINGS Sports Editor jjennings@smu.edu

The clock is ticking as the SMU Mustangs prepare to take on the Washington State Cougars at Ford Stadium Saturday afternoon. It has been almost a year since the Cougars devoured the Mustangs 30-27 last year at Martin Stadium. Washington State came back 17 points in the third quarter, leaving it up to their kicker, Nico Grasu, to boot a field goal for the win in overtime. It was the only win for the Cougars that season, compared to the Ponies who overcame the loss and went on to win eight games in 2009, including the Sheraton Hawaii Bowl. The Mustangs are currently 23-point favorites to win. Both teams are coming off their first wins of the 2010 season in games played last Saturday. Washington State defeated Montana State on Sept. 11, 23-22 thanks to Grasu’s 18-yard field goal kicked just two minutes before the end of the fourth quarter.

It was the Cougar’s first win since they beat SMU last year. The same day, SMU clobbered UAB 28-7 in their first conference game of the year. SMU quarterback Kyle Padron will meet Washington State’s Jeff Tuel for the first time on the field this Saturday. Tuel was 18 of 29 for 204 yards for the Cougars win over Montana State. Padron was 18 of 33 for 145 yards against UAB. As a freshman last season, Tuel finished the year throwing for 789 yards and 6 touchdowns. Padron completed 1,922 yards and 10 touchdowns. The Mustangs and the Cougars were both upset in the their nonconference season openers. Washington State was creamed by Oklahoma State on Sept. 4. at Boone Pickens Stadium, losing 65-17. Tuel completed only 14 of 29 passes and threw a total of 212 yards, with 1 touchdown. Sept. 5, just a day after Washington State’s loss, Texas Tech beat SMU 35-

27 at Jones AT&T Stadium. Padron completed 21 of 28 passes for 218 yards and 2 touchdowns. In both games it came down to the teams’ kickers. Cougar kicker Grasu and Mustang kicker Matt Szymanski hold the two longest field goals in NCAA FBS so far this season. Grasu connected on a 56-yard field goal in the second quarter against OSU, the sixth longest field goal kick in Washington State history. At Tech, Szymanski booted a 61yard field goal, his career best. On Saturday, SMU head Coach June Jones’ run and shoot style offense will take on Washington State Coach Paul Wulff ’s scout style offense. This is the coaches’ third season with their respective teams. The CBS College Sports televised game is set to kick off at 2:30 p.m. at Gerald J. Ford Stadium, where the C-USA Mustangs will take on the Pac-10 Cougars.

Author comes to Dallas for book signing

Women’s and gender studies becomes program

By STEPHANIE EMBREE

By ELENA HARDING

Students looking for a new read over the weekend can go byto Lincoln Park Sept. 18 toand grab a copy of On the Outskirts of Norma: Forging a Family Against the Grail by Debora Monroe when the Lincoln Park Barnes and Noble hosts the author’s book signing Sept. 18 at of Debora Monroe at 3 p.m. Debora Monroe writes a memoir of making a family in her new book. Running from divorce and doubt, Monroe finds herself in a small Texas town with her newly adopted daughter, Marie, trying to figure out what a family looks like. Amidst the arrival of her long-departed mother and calls from her alcoholic father, Monroe falls sick, forcing her to examine her own past to help her daughter. Barnes and Noble did not comment on the arrival of the author, but Monroe has gained popularity after her interview with Oprah this past June and could get a crowd. The book has already gained local attention. “You can’t read this book and not root for them, just as you won’t be able to read this without hoping for the day when race will be a non-issue,” reported the Dallas Morning News.

SMU students could be taking classes that could count toward a minor in Women’s and Gender Studies (WGS) without even knowing it. The departmentprogram consists of only one faculty member who is based in WGS, Josephine Caldwell-Ryan. The other faculty members specialize in other subjects, from English to economics. Caldwell-Ryan said WGS is able to offer a wide variety of courses because they cross with other studies and can fulfill cultural formations credits. Because of this variety, Beth Newman, director of Women’s and Gender Studies and associate professor of English, said many students may be enrolled in Women’s and Gender Studies classes without even realizing that they are taking them. “Adding the gender perspective is like adding another power to the microscope,” Caldwell-Ryan said. “It just gives more insight.” Originally called Women’s Studies, the departmentprogram is the academic arm of the U.S. Women’s Rights Movement. The program was established in the early 1970s by the late Betty Janette Maynard, former professor, sociology department chair, associate dean of

Members of One28 take part in one event of a service project on last Saturday.

Christian organization keeps active on, off campus By MEREDITH CARLTON Associate News Editor mcarlton@smu.edu

One28 is recognized by many students as a Christian organization at Southern Methodist University, but members of the group feel that it is much more than just a student-led ministry. According to their website, One28 is a “weekly meeting for worship and teaching for Dallas college students,” but these services do not reveal all the true colors of One28. In addition to holding weekly meetings for worship, One28 members break into small groups made up of students and staff members to discuss anything from interpreting the Bible to getting to know one another on a more personal level. Both members and non-members are encouraged to attend One28 events. This year, One28 has already taken a road trip to the Texas Tech football game in Lubbock and have has hosted a Boulevard tent during the home game last weekend. One28 adopted its name from the [Colossians 1:28] which states, “We proclaim him, admonishing and teaching everyone with all wisdom, so that we may present everyone perfect in Christ.” “It is a place I feel welcome, loved, encouraged and appreciated, regardless of how I am feeling or what is going on in my life,” said Haley Gatewood, junior creative advertising major. “It is also a community of people who will challenge me to grow in my faith and keep me accountable for my actions,” she said.

LECTURE

“Death Penalty Matters” series begins By JESSICA HUSEMAN Editor in Chief jhuseman@smu.edu

The “Death Penalty Matters” series put on by the Maguire Center for Ethics and Public Responsibility began Thursday, with speaker Bryan Stevenson, the founder and executive director of the Equal Justice Initiative, and a full house. Stevenson said that the reason he is opposed to the death penalty is because

the United States criminal justice system is not fair enough to justify the death penalty. “Even if you believe that it can be justified morally to take another human being’s life, that doesn’t answer the question about whether or not we should have the death penalty,” Stevenson said. “The question is have we constructed a system of justice so fair and so reliable that we can feel certain we have made the right decision.”

Stevenson gave personal and historical accounts of instances in which the United States system of justice had failed, including the 1987 Supreme Court case of McCleskey v. Kemp,. Prosecutors proved that the single largest predictor for who would receive the death penalty in Georgia was race, but the Court decided in a 5-4 decision that the death penalty was still constitutional in the

Other members also expressed their satisfaction with One28. “I absolutely love being a part of One28,” senior accounting major, Collin Aufhammer said. “I get to see God move on the SMU campus.” Although connecting with one’s faith is a main priority of One28, another is giving back to the community. Members and non-members gathered on Sept. 11 for a service project in west Dallas. The group partnered with 2ndSaturday, a community-based organization, to tear down drug houses and rebuild new ones. “Partnering with an organization that has embraced the community and is dedicated to improving it one family at a time allowed the students involved with this project to truly support a community in need,” Aufhammer said. “I was moved by seeing the visible results of helping with the remodeling of a dilapidated home in a community so often pushed to the wayside by city officials and city inhabitants alike,” he said.

Gatewood found the trip to be particularly moving as well. “I found it very powerful to be building something up on a day that something fell down,” Gatewood said. Gatewood also said that everyone present was doing something that would “give hope to others on a day that we all felt so hopeless.” Philip Hughes, junior psychology major, agreed with Gatewood and Aufhammer. “It was really moving to see how much the people of that neighborhood cared about their home,” he said. “I was really amazed to see how they never gave up on where they lived.” The next big event One28 will be hosting is its fall retreat Oct. 1-3 in Tyler, Texas. “One28 is the part of my week that I look forward to the most,” Gatewood said. “It is a support group that sticks to its guiding principle and namesake.” If you would like to know more about One28, visit smu128.com or go to one of their weekly meetings on Wednesdays at 8 p.m. in the HughesTrigg Theater.

Dedman College and president of Faculty Senate. Newman said the program’s name was changed in 2008 to reflect the field’s evolution. “So much work had been done on women who had previously been neglected in traditional academic study that it made sense to put them back into a system and think about masculinity too,” Newman said. “So we started talking about gender.” Although, she said the word “women” was kept in the program’s name as acknowledgement of the original inquirers into the study and “not to erase women all over again.” Newman said to take women out of the name would be tantamount to women’s re-erasure. A unique aspect of the WGS program is the Women’s and Gender Studies Council, made up of faculty, staff and students. Newman and Caldwell-Ryan are part of the council. CaldwellRyan said that the council enables the WGS program to sidestep bureaucracy, and it has done so since the program’s inception. Caldwell-Ryan said that the more democratic approach goes

back to the very idea of women’s studies – what was done in the past is not necessarily how it needs to be done in the present. All students in the WGS program are pursuing a minor but one: sophomore Rebekah Boyer. The WGS program is not a regular major offered, and does not have a predetermined course list. Boyer said this is the reason she became interested in it. She created a personalized 36-hour plan for her WGS major after becoming frustrated with the constraints of other majors. She said she went through the course catalogue and highlighted all of the classes that intrigued her to come up with her degree plan. The major she created has some required classes, but the rest are focused on her interests. The Women’s and Gender Studies major is not a stand-alone major. Newman said that the interdisciplinary program is designed to be a second major and recommends interested students to apply early in their sophomore year. Boyer said all that is needed to take advantage of the program’s major is initiative, elbow grease and highlighters. Boyer said the study of gender in the context of society and culture complements her second major, art

history. She said she sees art as a reflection of culture and through her class readings, concluded that gender is also a prevalent way to view oneself in relation to society. “Everyone can get something out of women’s studies,” Boyer said. “It’s not just for women and [not] - I’m going to drop the f-bomb - feminists.” Boyer is also vice president of the Women’s Interest Network (WIN), which is run out of the Women’s Center for Gender and Pride Initiatives. “We’re kind of like buddies... the way I see it,” Newman said about the women’s center. The WGS program is the academic branch, and it is complemented by the Women’s Center that serves students. The Women’s Center, like women’s studies, was opened in the early 1970s. Also like WGS, the Women’s Center has evolved to include gender issues as well as women’s issues. Newman said that when there is a discussion about gender, sexual orientation inevitably comes up. Val Erwin, the program director of the Women’s Center, said the center is a safe place for lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender (LGBT) and women to feel welcome.

state because “if they allowed this case to be decided because of race, then it would open doors to allow other things to be turned over because of race,” Stevenson said. “It was the first time, probably the only time, that I read a Supreme Court decision that made me cry,” Stevenson said. But race is not the only vexing issue in the world of criminal justice, Stevenson said. The United States is still bogged down by issues of whether juveniles and the mentally ill should be put to death. In the United States, one in 100 people are in prison and one in 31 people are in jail, prison or on parole, Stevenson said. He says this is because the “tough on crime” policy that the United States has adopted has led to people serving life sentences for non-violent crimes. “They ask, ‘How can we prevent more violence?’ and we say we are going to be really tough. But that’s not a policy, that’s a politic that rises because of our fear,” Stevenson said. Stevenson said that “the United States is very out of step with most modern democracies.” He said that, since the 70s, all other democracies have been getting rid of the death penalty, while it is just increasing in the United States. And this endless amount of capital punishment is not distributed equally among violent perpetrators. “Our system treats you better if you are rich and guilty than if you are poor and innocent,” said Stevenson. “Wealth, not culpability shapes outcomes. Its sad, its regrettable, but it is our system.” He said that the death penalty does not help victims. “We don’t really try to make them whole,” Stevenson said. “What we promise them is another body, and it’s a cynical thing to do.” Stevenson ended his lecture by adding that the reason that he continues to fight the hard battles that he fights everyday is because he realizes that he is also “broken.” “I realize that when you are in a community with people who are broken you realize that brokenness is not unique to the condemned,” Stevenson said. “We can do more for broken people than execute them.”

“Wave” adds Spanish “Henry IV” opens at Wyly, elegance to Boulevard: features Meadows talent “In situ” with Chris Calloway

By EJ WALL

Contributing Writer ejwall@smu.edu

Anyone who drives down the Boulevard, notices it – the rising and falling sculpture in the front plaza of the Meadows Museum. Santiago Calatrava’s “Wave” is just one of the many beautiful aspects of the SMU campus. Calatrava, the designer of this pristine sculpture, is a world-renown architect, engineer and artist from Valencia, Spain. Because the Meadows Museum hosts one of the largest collections of Spanish art outside of Spain, Calatrava envisioned “Wave” to serve as a symbol for the relationship between Spain and Texas. Calatrava incorporated several elements both in inspiration and materials from Spain into “Wave.” Choosing the shape of a wave was inspired by the beaches along the Mediterranean Sea in Calatrava’s home-town Valencia. Furthermore, all of the 129 bronze coated and hollow steel beams, which each weigh 441 pounds, were manufactured in Spain and shipped to Dallas. Also, King Juan Carlos and Queen Sofia brought water from Spain that was poured into the reflecting pool at

Second, the newly renovated plaza outside of the Meadows Museum looks stunning. If you need evidence, check out the plaza after dark when well-placed lights illuminate the spectacular sculptures. From the top of the plaza, you can observe “Wave” from above, a perspective Calatrava wanted people to have when he initially designed the sculpture. Looking from the plaza, the sculpture KALEN SCHOU/Daily Campus appears completely different.

If you’re looking for a way to spend your Friday night, the Dallas Theater Center is performing William Shakespeare’s “Henry IV” at the Dee and Charles Wyly Theater, with discounted tickets for SMU students, faculty and staff. SMU theater majors Micah Figueroa and Sean O’Connor are a few of the actors you can expect to see on stage, along with many veteran actors of the DTC Company. The production is set during the life of King Henry IV of England, and the smell of leather and clinking of armor spreads throughout the theater.

Director Kevin Moriarty said in a talk back after a preview performance, “We originally thought we would produce this in a modern setting, but realized that it might work better in the correct period, but we did keep certain modern elements.” Despite its 15th century setting, the show, which is in previews right now, is an unexpected Shakespeare experience. The actors bound up and down a set constructed of wooden beams throughout the show and periodically ask audience members to hold props or scoot over so that they may sit next to them during their scenes. “The show is well worth the price of a ticket because the audience is almost completely consumed by the

world we have created.” Figueroa said. “The set has no boundaries and there are few if no places for the audience to hide.” Audience members can expect to see a range of different things during the show’s 150 minute run time. It isn’t a Shakespeare play without romantic scenes, but there are also giant battle sequences as well as some great comedy,” O’Connor said. “People can come expecting to see lots of drinking, thieving, sword fighting, jokes and tears,” Figueroa said. “We have it all.” “Henry IV” opens Friday at 8 p.m. Tickets are available for purchase online at www.dallastheatercenter. org or by phone at 214-880-0202.

have the extreme privilege to attend SMU. I am lucky to have been born in a country where education is accessible and Jordan Johansen encouraged. However, not everyone at SMU was born in the U.S. Not everyone at our university comes from a country where education is accessible. Around the world, there are intelligent and hard-working human beings eager and qualified to attend higher education who simply cannot. It is not a question of will or ability, but rather the country, gender, socio-economic class, culture and situations that they happened to be born into. Included below is a letter written by a former University of Texas at Arlington student, Saad Nabeel, who came to the U.S. as a toddler and was schooled in the U.S. education system. Last year, despite recently being given permanent residency status, he was deported away from the one home he has ever known. As a full scholarship student in engineering, his eagerness and ability for higher education cannot be questioned. Despite this, Saad is not in the university. He is in a place foreign to anything he has ever known. I encourage every SMU student, faculty, and staff to read Saad Nabeel’s letter and put yourself in his situation. COMMENTARY

As you’re reading this article, quite possibly in one of SMU’s many comfortable lounge areas, I want you to imagine being Whitaker Olsen someplace else for a moment. This place does not have airconditioning, nor does it have intangible comforts many of us take for granted like safety and security. Now imagine the incredible feeling of isolation and desperation because you have been stripped of everything and everyone you love, including your education.

What would you do if you were, right now, sent to a country where you knew no one and could not speak the language? What would you do if you could not come home for 10 years? What is the U.S.’s responsibility to Saad? He is a young adult without American citizenship now residing in the country of his birth. However, he was educated as an American and grew up as an American. America is his home. Last year, a piece of federal legislation called the Development, Relief and Education for Alien Minors Act (or DREAM Act) was proposed to the Senate and House of Representatives. The DREAM Act would allow certain illegal immigrant students who arrived in the U.S. as minors and have lived in the country continuously for five years conditional permanent residency to attend higher education in the U.S. or serve in the U.S. military. This Act was created for students in Saad’s situation. He did not make the decision to come to this country illegally. He did not make the decision to be educated as an American. He did make the decision to seek higher education and to follow the American dream. There should be a system in place so that he can come home and live out this dream. Jordan Johansen is senior history, music and anthropology triple major. She can be reached for comments or questions at jjohansen@smu.edu.

For the author of the letter you will read next, this is reality...and he is one of the lucky ones because at least we know about his story. What about the countless other stories we don’t hear about? What options are available to them as they cling to dreams of finishing their education? As Mustangs, we are the privileged few, with the duty to help others. We need to not only address these issues as we are made aware, but continually seek out those still waiting to be heard. Whitaker Olsen is a junior environmental engineering major. He can be reached for comments or questions at wolsen@smu.edu.

Perspective from Bangladesh Dear Mr. President, My name is Saad Nabeel, and I am writing to you from Bangladesh. Prior to my arrival in this nation, I lived in the United States for 15 years. My parents brought me to America at age three. It is the only home I know. I was attending the University of Texas at Arlington with a full scholarship in electrical engineering. Through no fault of my own I was forced to leave my home, friends, possessions and, most importantly, my education behind. Nov. 3, 2009 is a day I will never forget. My mother called me and told me that my father had been detained by ICE and that we needed to leave immediately to Canada to seek refugee status. Being an only child, I had to take care of my mother and go with her. My mother and I were denied entrance into Canada and sent back to the U.S. as if we were common criminals. I was separated from my mother and sent to a detention facility where I was forced to live with 60 other men, many of whom were hardened criminals. There was no privacy, and I was forced to use the facilities and showers while fully exposed. I lived in constant fear of abuse. I was without food for upwards of 14 hours a day and received little to no medical attention. When I asked for legal counsel I was threatened with criminal charges and jail time in a federal penitentiary. To this day I still have nightmares about being detained. Everything my parents taught me about human decency was replaced with humiliation. Mr. President I hope you are as outraged as I am hurt by this ordeal. In Bangladesh I am now suffering through power outages nine hours a day with temperatures well above 100 degrees Fahrenheit. The

pollution in the air makes me sick, and I get food poisoning every week from the poor quality of food here. Raw sewage flows in open drains right outside of our apartment. I see people outside with mangled bodies dying on the street because of the heat and starvation. I see mothers practically giving their children away because they are unable to feed them. I do not know the language, and I fear going outside because I am different from everyone else. Speaking in English is an easy way to be targeted here. We cannot afford to live in a safer area. I have not left the apartment for eight months now because I simply have nowhere to go and nothing to do. I cannot even attend school due to the language barrier. I do not know anyone in Bangladesh. I have never seen this place. On top of all this, my parents are both ill and have been for months. My father suffers severe asthma attacks that make him bedridden on most days. My mother has post traumatic stress and cannot accept the fact that she is not at our home in Texas. These events transpired after we were approved for our I-130 to receive our Green Cards. Our permanent residency is now available in the United States but because ICE forced my family to sign 10 year bars, we are unable to go home. We have been waiting for our Green Cards for 15 years now. Mr. President, you are the most powerful man in the world, all I ask from you is to bring me home. All I ever wanted was an education so I could become an engineer. I just want to go home and go back to college. Please don’t have me exiled any longer. Please bring me home. Sincerely, Saad Nabeel

Do politicians have consent of the governed? COMMENTARY

When you reflect on the Declaration of Independence, your mind likely moves directly to the “self-evident” truths or to the Drew Konow “inalienable” rights. What comes next, however, we often forget. President Thomas Jefferson continued on to explain that governments must derive their power “from the consent of the governed” and that it is the role of the people to “alter or abolish” a government that becomes “destructive” or unjust. Campaign season is the time of year when the “consent of the governed” comes into question and when the voting populace decides whether or not to “alter or abolish” our elected officials’ tenure. From now until the November midterm elections, we will be subjected to the lunacy of political campaigns. Prepare yourself for intense commercial advertising, stake signs galore, political interviews and unveiled scandals. This is what the electoral process has become: a drawn-out, circus-like cage fight. The focus has turned not on achieving the “consent of the governed,” but on

obtaining the vote of the governed. Therefore, a few months (or in the case of the 2008 presidential election, years) before the election, politicians drop everything they do to become full time hand-shaking, baby-kissing, good-listening “public servants.” In other words, they go on the campaign trail. Politicians are speaking with their constituents, listening to the concerns they have, staying up to date with every issue and taking a stand, claiming that they will avenge the wrongs done to their people and unite the city, county, parish or state. Much of this is clearly a façade that has become a necessary, though at times, deplorable, element of our political system. However, after the façade is removed, what remains resembles a politician truly doing his or her job – listening to the people, reaching out to communities, staying on top of the daily issues and calling fellow leaders to more diligent service. Unfortunately, these virtues rarely carry on past election season. We saw this with the last presidential election that lasted for a brutal, two-year stretch. We witnessed the same trend with our SMU student body elections. More than a handful of senators were vying for the presidential seat and four more

were competing for the vice president and secretary roles- not to mention innumerable students who were running for the coveted senatorial positions while promising reams of legislation along the way. During the SMU election cycle, the opinion of the students and the unity of the campus were hoisted upon sanctimonious pedestals and called upon by every individual running for office. The student candidates traveled diligently from student group to student group. They loitered in the busy corridors of Hughes-Trigg Student Center and Dallas Hall just to stop you and tell you how they hoped to represent you. They pestered you with endless Facebook messages, group invitations and advertisements. The diligence, passion and energy funneled into a political campaign seem

very impressive, even compelling, in the moment. Incredibly, the public servant is actually serving the people. When the waves of the electoral ocean subside, however, a mundane political reality surfaces, and the victor emerges with the “consent of the governed.” Politicians are meant be servants of the people and should concern themselves with the necessary consent of the governed throughout their service. Likewise, citizens should give their consent cautiously, making clear the voice behind their vote. Indeed, it is “the consent of the governed” which made the “American experiment” such an innovative enterprise.

COMMENTARY

The fall season has already arrived in my hometown of Portland, Oregon. The temperatures are leveling out around 65 Austin Prentice degrees and the dark clouds filling the sky love producing rain on football Saturdays. Here at SMU the weather is a completely different story. Blue sky, humidity and the acceptance of sweat on the Boulevard make for one of the best game day experiences. This week SMU has a great opportunity to show their improvements as Washington State (from that rainy and cloudy North West) travels south trying to spring an upset. The Cougars of Washington State are hoping to come out of here surviving the climate change with a win under their belts. Two years ago the Cougars got the best of SMU, but much has changed since then. Playing a big-time PAC-10 program at home is exactly what the Mustangs need right now. Washington State is an opportunity — an opportunity for fans to show their continued support by packing Gerald J. Ford stadium; an opportunity for recruits to see the talent that SMU is beginning to accumulate, and then jump on the bandwagon; an opportunity for spirit and passion to continually be brewed inside us. Washington State is more than “the game before TCU comes to town.” Rather, it is a turning point of the season. Yes, families will start arriving into town over the next week, but we are not to next week yet. The importance of this Washington State game cannot be expressed enough. At one win and one loss right now, the Mustangs are on the verge of something special once again. Of course there are, and always will be, those doubters that cannot get over the fact that SMU was great in the early 1980s and will never return to that

level. Win, and you prove all the doubters wrong once more. After the win, yes I know I am speaking optimistically here, the Mustangs will move to 2-1 and have a winning record once again. Winning is slowly becoming the norm around here again. SMU is 6-2 in their last eight games, and 6-1 in their last seven home games. Now is the time to grab your friends, neighbors and even that bandwagon fan on the side of the road and bring them to the game. I traveled to Texas Tech two weekends ago to cheer SMU on in the first contest of the season. Wearing a blue shirt with 85 other passionate Mustang fans and holding a sign that read “Life After Death” made for a great afternoon. When I got home, a die-hard SMU fan who could not make the trip asked me about the sign. We talked about the horrible past and came to the conclusion that maybe we need to begin writing a new story for football at SMU. Always make sure to remember the greats that have played previously at SMU, and boy have we had some good ones, but try to move out of that shadow cast onto SMU by the death penalty. I think Washington State provides the Mustangs with exactly that. Enjoy the Boulevard because it is truly a special event. The sun is out and the grills are on, but remember to walk, run or parade on down to the stadium in time for kickoff. Winning is the ultimate cure for a sunburn and the perfect way to cap off a great Saturday. And besides, we all know what to look forward to after a dominating performance over Washington State – bring on those Horned Frogs! Pony Up! Austin Prentice is vice president of the student body.
