the shelter is always on overflow status, even during the summer, and that with the cold weather coming, extra overflow and extra help are needed. From serving and preparing meals to sorting donations to children’s programming to monetary donations, ways to give back are plentiful. Ultimately, what people can do most to help is to learn. “I’m always encouraging people to learn more about what the homeless situation is in this area, in this region, by learning more about it hopefully people consider being more of an advocate about the issue,” Lipari said. “One of the most common pieces of misinformation is people will say, ‘Well I don’t understand there’s so many jobs in town, why don’t the homeless people get a job?’” she added. “Well, that’s not the issue.” Lipari said the

“By learning more about it, hopefully people consider being more of an advocate about the issue.” – Lisa Lipari, Churches United director majority of able-bodied people within Churches United are working and that the problems from homelessness stem from a range of other issues. These include not making enough money at existing jobs, bad credit ratings for numerous reasons, past convictions and that because of the current economic boom in Fargo, the vacancy rate is only 4 percent. This gives landlords the economic incentive to only lease to non-risky tenants. Lipari also said she believes once the community comes together to learn about the issues, more can be done to offer help to the homeless. “Because we are Churches United and we have nearly 60 church members, we

A bake sale will also be held Friday in the Union. “Anything you can do really helps,” Schaller said.

INSIDE

The week before Thanksgiving is a time for people like Stephon Schaller to give back and help those in need. Schaller, a member of the Student Social Work Organization, is chairing events coming within the next week in support of National Homeless and Hungry Awareness week. “We have events almost every day next week,” said Schaller, a sophomore in human development and family science. The organization is working in conjunction with the Fargo-Moorhead Coalition for Homeless Persons and Churches United for the Homeless, a community center and shelter in Moorhead. Last year, around $900 dollars was donated to the FM Coalition, Schaller said. Lisa Lipari, Churches United director, said

Week before Thanksgiving recognizes those in need

On any given night, roughly 760 people are affected by homelessness in the Fargo-Moorhead area. Homelessness knows no discrimination. People young and old, black and white, married or single can be struck down by homelessness. They face challenges that very few of us can imagine. Being homeless and hungry is not a switch that can be turned off and on. It takes work to get out of a slump and often help is needed. “Just showing that there is someone that cares about them can make someone’s day that much better,” says Stephon Schaller, an officer of the Student Social Work Organization at NDSU. Nov. 14-22 is Homelessness and Hunger Awareness week across the country. A sponsor of some of the events is NDSU’s Student Social Work Organization. The organization is relatively new and welcomes everyone from all different majors. SSWO meets every other Wednesday at 7 p.m. in the E. Morrow Lebedeff Hall. Because it is so new, the hardest challenge SSWO faces is finding new members. The organization focuses on volunteering year-round, helping out those in need. Its mission is to promote unity in

the community. SSWO welcomes all to attend guest speakers, panels and conferences as well as partake in this week’s awareness events.

Monday - Wear Purple

Purple is the color of homelessness awareness. Across the country, people will be wearing purple to show their support in honor of National Homelessness Awareness week.

Wednesday – Wear orange, Serve with the Herd

The official color of hunger awareness is orange. Wear this color and sign up for Serve with the Herd. Serve with the Herd is a program that schedules time slots to sign up for a chance to volunteer. You will be sent out to different shelters and places to volunteer in the area.

Thursday – Homeless for a Day

Homeless for a Day is when students stand outside from 8 a.m.-12 a.m. to raise money for local homeless shelters. They will be outside of the Loaf ‘N Jug on the corner of University Drive and 12th Avenue. Not only will the students be raising money, but also awareness on what homeless individuals endure when the temperatures drop.

Friday – Bake sale

The bake sale will be in the Union from 10 a.m.-2 p.m. The proceeds will go to the Fargo-Moorhead Coalition for the Homeless.

Head News Editor

Another eatery option is coming to the Memorial Union. A bakery will fill the space vacated by Taco Shop on the MU’s dining block in early May. The NDSU Union Bake Shop is scheduled to open Nov. 30. Darren Peterson, dining services director, said campus surveys by marketing classes helped determine the concept of the eatery to replace the “Mexican concept” on the east end of the dining block. A farmers market this fall near the Sheppard Arena also helped dining services determine a bakery to fill the space. Peterson said dining services had a table at the farmers market, selling out its various breads in two hours. “What we determined by that is there is a need on campus for people wanting baked items,” he said. Peterson added the NDSU Union Bake Shop

“Reaction will drive what we do with it ... We will continue to evolve and identify what we need to do with all the retail spaces on campus.” – Darren Peterson, dining services director will “evolve based on trying things out and seeing if that’s what individuals want.” The bakery will begin selling “some very basic baked items” and will be staffed by some of dining services’ 300 employees. NDSU Dining has also posted flyers for hiring employees to work at the bakery with an application process that’s “a piece of cake,” a flyer read. As for another “Mexican concept” eatery, Peterson said that’s “down the road.” “We do not have a national brand that is interested in coming on campus,” he said. Taco Shop was the third in a series of Mexican eateries that preceded it in the same space, including a Taco John’s and Taco Bell.

He added that dining services is conducting surveys to find out what students and employees are looking for in a Mexican eatery. As for the NDSU Bake Shop, its presence on the MU’s dining block will be “ever evolving,” Peterson said, like all of dining services’ campus outlets. “Reaction will drive what we do with it,” Peterson said. “It’s not about having a bakery in that space. We will continue to evolve and identify what we need to do with all the retail spaces on campus.” The other retail spaces on the MU’s dining block include Burgers @ the U, Hoagie Hut, Marketplace Grille, Pizza Express and Panda Express.

Coffee chain to open new store on west side of Bison Block

Casey McCarty Co-News Editor

Caramel frappuccinos, pumpkin spice lattes and peppermint mochas are coming closer to campus in the latter half of 2016. The Forum reported a new franchise location of Starbucks will be opening on the west end of Bison Block by the start of next school year in fall 2016. Previously two other coffee shops have come and gone on the Bison Block, Jitters and Cafe Delight. Jitters closed in summer 2014. Cafe Delight moved into the Jitters space, opening in August 2014 before closing Aug. 1 for reasons

including slow business and a corporate conflict over its owners’ franchising agreement. “Starbucks is a different entity than a mom and pop store, obviously they’re a large corporate store,” building owner Roger Gilbertson said. Gilbertson added that he has no doubts that Starbucks will be a success. The store will be the sixth Starbucks store in the Fargo-Moorhead area, as indicated by the Starbucks corporate website. There are three available parking spots in front of the future Starbucks site, as well as the T-Lots which are available to the public for free after 4:30 p.m. on weekdays and all day on weekends.

The Cass County District Court ordered Stanley Busche to at least 15 years in prison after being convicted to sexually assaulting international students who lived in Bison Arms.

He couldn’t.” Mottinger sought no more than 10 years in prison for his client, The Forum reported. He also said his client showed a small amount of good character by not raping the third female student. Busche made a tearful apology at his sentencing, requesting “mercy” from the judge to spare him from a long sentence for the sake of his family. He also made a statement that 10 months in jail had made him a better man and he knew he “was very wrong.” “Now I’m actually relieved that I know what my problems are,” Busche said. “You weren’t provoked to do this,” judge Steven Marquart said. “The victims didn’t induce this.” Busche previously plead guilty in 1997 to a burglary involving underwear from NDSU’s Kappa Delta sorority house. The 318 days he has already served will count toward his jail time.

Stanley Joe Busche, 40, was sentenced by Cass County District Court to 20 years in prison with five years suspended for an assault at the Bison Arms Apartments. The Argusville, N.D., native was also given 10 years probation and is required to undergo sex offender treatment, The Forum reported. Busche turned himself in following a manhunt for the Dec. 20 assault at the apartments, just over 100 feet from campus. Wearing a mask, he held three international students at knifepoint while forcing them to undress. He sexually assaulted two of the women before they escaped to other apartments. Busche plead guilty in June to the six charges including two counts of gross sexual imposition, attempted gross sexual imposition, terrorizing, burglary and tampering with physical evidence.

North Dakota State graduates could be making less than the university estimates, or so says a news magazine. The Economist found NDSU grads are making a median salary of $46,300, less than the $49,132 reported by NDSU. The magazine ranked colleges based on comparisons of how much grads should earn based on their actual salaries, a number based on SAT scores, sex ratio, race breakdown and other factors. Out of the 1,275 institutions profiled, The Economist ranked NDSU at 1,025 out of four-year, nonvocational colleges. As for the disparity in estimates of grad salaries, Provost Beth Ingram told The Forum said it’s “sort of a neutral thing.” “They made a prediction, and our number

was different from their prediction, and that’s the way it is,” she said. The Economist based its finding for NDSU on 2011 data for students starting college in 2001. Ingram said a number of reasons might exist for the differences in The Economist’s and NDSU’s reported grad salaries. “We could have kids going to graduate school, and graduate students make very low income,” she told The Forum. “We could have kids that are choosing to go back to communities in North Dakota where wages are a little bit smaller. That doesn’t get taken into account by The Economist.” Anna Gilbery, a junior in natural resources management, said the university should “get some new information” to make better predictions about its graduates’ expected salaries. “It’s not very helpful to us,” she said of the university’s estimate of $49,132.

Review of Premium Denim

Are $200 jeans really worth it?

Keyona Elkins

Contributing writer

Anyone who works in retail can attest that the combination of employee discounts, prolonged exposure to new clothes and promotion of those clothes to other people can encourage you to give most of your paycheck right back to your employer. When I started working at a contemporary clothing boutique back home this summer, I was careful to not let the temptation get the better of my wallet. It would have been ridiculous, however, not to make use of a generous employee discount when it applied to brands like Free People, Ray Ban and Frye, whose items rarely go on sale. The most I’d ever spent on jeans before was $55, but I figured if there was ever a perfect time to buy an expensive pair of jeans, this was it. After eyeing up all of our premium denim brands (7 For All Mankind, Hudson, DL1961, Joe’s, Kut from the Kloth), I decided to try on a few pairs of DLs because they are known for retaining their shape and are made from soft, stretchy fabric. I fell for a pair of skinnies in a classic dark wash. They fit perfectly, flattered my figure, and were unbelievably stretchy and comfortable. I put them on hold to think about it, and after trying them on again a few days later, decided to bite the bullet and buy them at the end of my shift. The original price was $178, but after my employee discount of 40 percent off our first pair of jeans, I only paid $107 — a steal for premium denim! Or so I was convinced until I got home and came down from the shopping high. My frugal, Midwestern sensibilities kicked in, and I started to doubt the practicality of my purchase. What had I done? I could have bought four pairs somewhere else for what I paid! Had I been seduced by peer pressure hype, and the enticement of a “good deal”? I would soon find out. Fortunately, my DLs lived up to their promise of not stretching out. I can wear them for three days (probably much longer if I tried), and not even the knees or waist bag out like they do in most jeans. They haven’t faded in the wash. I don’t have to pull them up all day. They don’t dig into my stomach. The seams don’t wrap awkwardly around my calves like some poor quality jeans do when they’ve been cut off-grain. They are almost as comfortable as leggings, and they make me feel so much more put together. I could rave on. But, alas, they are still jeans, and life still happens. One of the first times I wore them, I brushed against something sharp at work and snagged the back pocket. It could have happened to any jeans, but the fact that it happened to the brand new pair I had splurged on made me want to cry at first. I carefully clipped off a stray thread, and the rest of the tiny snags were barely noticeable. The high quality fabric hasn’t run at all since, so I can barely tell anything happened. In my experience, once you go premium, you never go back. My Wet Seal jeans that previously held the prestigious title of “favorite jeans” feel scratchy, stretched out, uncomfortable and cheap now that I’ve gotten used to higher quality denim. My DLs will probably be in my closet much longer than jeans I only paid $30 for, so their longevity also constitutes the higher price tag. The term “premium denim” doesn’t have a standard definition, but it typically refers to jeans that cost over $100, are higher quality in fabric, construction and style and carry a brand name label associated with a specific desirable look. I’ve toured factories in Los Angeles

Premium denim can cost you a pretty penny, but the perfect pair of jeans can be worth it. where they make premium denim and was surprised at how much work went into each pair. Employees sanded, distressed and set whiskers in the jeans by hand. Each pair went through multiple labor intensive finishing steps to wash, soften, fade and treat the fabric to get the right look. If you’re thinking about investing in a good pair of premium jeans, here is my checklist to make sure you’re getting your money’s worth: • Make an informed purchase. Treat shopping for premium denim like shopping for a car; it’s an investment. Do research online, and ask friends and sales associates

about the different brands and styles. • Choose the right brand for you. For example, I like jeans that have a lot of stretch and don’t bag out, so I chose DL1961, but if you like your jeans to have a more classic denim feel and give a little when you wear them, you might want to try 7 For All Mankind. • Choose a classic style. Sequins, rips and distressing are all fun, but if you’re investing in a high quality pair of denim, you want something you can wear every day for years to come. • Try on many pairs. Don’t just put them on, look in the mirror and take them

off. Sit down. Walk. Run. Dance. Keep them on for a while to see if they ride down or pull anywhere. • Get them hemmed if you need to. Fit is extremely important, so putting a few extra dollars into making your clothes truly flatter your body is worth it. Some stores, like the one I worked at, even offer hemming for free. • Take good care of them. Read and follow the instructions on the care label. Premium jeans are often made with performance fabrics and fiber blends that need special care. You don’t want to ruin or shorten the life of your $200 jeans.

5 Things You Learn While Living with an International Student Meghan Battest Staff Writer

This semester, I live in a six-bedroom house, one of which is occupied by a German foreign-exchange student. Having been an international student myself, I know how it feels to be the foreigner in a new place. But observing her attempts to mesh her own culture with American culture is a new view — one that comes with plenty of interesting anecdotes and realizations about our culture.

1. For starters, she walks everywhere.

And at all hours of the night. All of a sudden it is midnight, and she leaves to meet up with friends, disappearing into the darkness with no trepidation. Perhaps we drive too much, but perhaps safety should be a larger portion of the international students’ orientation.

2. Her sleep schedule is wacko.

Several open basements, charred wood and bricks are most of what remains of Shields, N.D., following a 2002 grass fire.

Spectrum Staff

Many small North Dakota towns have suffered declining populations and abandonment over the years as residents moved to larger cities. One town lost nearly everything in one day. Shields, N.D., a small town on the Cannonball River south of Mandan, went up in flames in July 2002 as four grass fires raged across the Grant and Sioux counties. The largest of the fires burned 10,000 acres, racing across the dry, hot, grassy landscape and destroying 30 buildings in Shields, displacing its 15 residents. In an age when cell phones were not as

popular, residents of the region were given minutes’ warning to evacuate the area as for some; word only traveled door to door. The Shields blaze left all but three buildings untouched — its bar, post office and one home. Battling the fires attracted enormous efforts from volunteer, local, state and federal agencies. Two National Guard helicopters dumped Missouri River water over the fires, 200 gallons at a time. On the ground, fire crews worked to contain the flames, some up to 25 feet high. “Everyone with a hose showed up” to fight the fires, an emergency management official said at the time. In the days after, hot spots still remained in some areas. Fire officials estimated a lightning strike igniting extremely dry grass started the

blaze. Other grass fires at the time destroyed barns at Cannon Ball, N.D., and raced across grasslands near Fort Yates, N.D., and Kenel, S.D. Efforts took two days to extinguish the fires. As for Shields, all that remains today are charred remnants of wood and bricks and several open basements. Shields lies in a lonely region of North Dakota home to several sparsely populated and abandoned towns. Despite losing near everything, Shields residents kept a positive outlook on the future of their town. “If there’s a post office and a bar, a community will survive,” a resident said in the days after Shields burned.

The Jog Begins Benjamin Norman

SOGGY JOGGING

Batman began again in 2005. I begin again in 2015. I could finally neglect my homework last Monday night; I coaxed my jogging buddy, lovingly known as Beef, to put down the eggnog and put on her tennis shoes; the stars aligned behind an overcast sky. We were soggily jogging through the streets again. Less than a mile in, I thought to myself, “Wow. Forgot how unromantic this pastime is. Don’t dry-heave.” The honeymoon was over. I had began crushing on running lately, especially after writing about it for this column and reading an article from The Atlantic titled “Why Writers Run.” From afar, this most simple of exercises is elegant and mystical. “Racking up mile after mile is difficult, mind-expanding and hypnotic — just like putting words down on a page,” writes Nick Ripatrazone. He adds famous writers like Joyce Carol Oates and Jonathan Swift ran to

3. She loves fresh air.

Unlike Americans who love our canned air, she leaves her window open almost always, despite temperatures dropping into the low 30s at night. Earlier this year when it was still warm, she had a window air conditioner, but she asked the landlord to remove it so that she could have fresh air.

4. No peanut butter?

Finally, she does not really like peanut butter, much preferring Nutella. And while you really cannot get more European than that, I will continue eating Jif like it is going out of style.

5. Explore your community.

Because she is only here for a limited amount of time, she is truly taking advantage of every opportunity she can find, trying new coffee shops, attending random events and testing out everything Fargo has to offer. It makes me consider what the world would be like if we all lived like tourists in our own city and inspires me to go out and explore.

refuel their pens. OK, but what about the part when the eggnog and your mother’s spaghetti start a mosh pit in your stomach? Nowhere in Ripatrazone’s article does it mention Oates running on a gravel road, miles away from a toilet, when her belly begins revolting. Nowhere in his article does it mention Swift chaffing in all the wrong areas. During this first jog in many months, I pondered whether God really wanted humans to do such a heinous activity. “He loves me, right?” I asked myself by the time my legs began to toy with cramping up. He does. And I love running, sort of. Kay Ryan, the former United States Poet Laureate, sums up my feelings well, as Ripatrazone adds her quote in his piece: “I like to run. Actually I don’t really like to run but I’ve done it for a million years.” As the temperatures continue to drop and my life’s stresses continue to rise, let us pray Newton’s First Law of Motion keeps my moving legs in motion. I’ve started jogging again, and, for the sake of my health and writing, I need to keep true the ugly race.

A large majority of the week she returns from dancing at the O.B. by 2 a.m. and then wakes up to bake a cake, cookies, or brownies around 5 or 6 a.m. Outside of these baked goods, I barely see her eat. And when I do, it is a tiny amount of vegetables. She makes me rethink my American portions and also wonder what the O.B. is like on a Monday.

Newfangled Theatre’s 7/11

Project a Collective Success Student-run theater group demonstrates immense talent REVIEW

Jack Hastings Staff Writer

One set. Seven plays. Eleven minutes. North Dakota State’s Newfangled Theatre Company presented a series of plays as part of the 7/11 Project. The night consisted of seven plays, each 11 minutes long, all of which were written, directed, designed and performed by students. Two weeks ago, writers saw the completed set of old couches, a sawhorse comprised table and empty liquor bottles to write a script playing off of it. Only one week later directors held auditions to fill the roles. This fast-paced, reckless-abandon structure gave students the freedom to fully portray whatever they may choose, with little to no inhibitions. All aspects of the plays were quite polished given the relatively short time frame to prepare a production. This quality gave each play a very natural, free flowing feel,

typical to write more, so I did just the opposite.” Doors open at 7 p.m., with the first act on at 8 p.m. Tickets are still available, starting at $30. Jade Presents is bringing the group to Fargo, adding to its busy scheduling flurry that has included The Avett Brothers, Craig Ferguson and upcoming shows from Kevin Hart and Hinder. Known for bringing a killer show to typically large crowds, it will be a treat to catch Theory of a Deadman in as intimate a setting as the Fargo Theatre.

On Monday, Canadian hard rockers Theory of a Deadman, accompanied by Shaman’s Harvest and Artifas, are performing at the Fargo Theatre. This big name rock band takes some influence from southern, country and hard rock blending it together with its alternative metal and grungy overtones. The group may ring a bell upon the mention of their 2008

commercially successful hit, “Bad Girlfriend.” The band started in 2001, and was the first band Nickelback’s frontman, Chad Kroeger, signed to his label 604 Records. The band’s singer, Tyler Connolly, reportedly slipped a copy of his band’s demo to Kroeger at a post-concert party, and the two have since been in collaboration. According to the Jade Present’s concert announcement, Connolly was quoted regarding the newest album, “I’m known as the guy writes all the ‘breakup’ songs. It would be

almost as if you were witnessing the creative process behind the inception of a play itself. This feat is highly commendable for the students. Producing a show out of thin air is no easy task, but the Newfangled Theatre Company did it seamlessly. The set for the plays was in the center of a room with the audience surrounding, emphasizing the collective energy and participation of performers and onlookers. One felt nearly like an omniscient spectator observing the action happening around them. The feeling of being part of the staged events unfolding is enough to keep you incredibly invested in each individual play, and the performances of the actors only adds to that. Full of subtle nuances and genuine reactions, the actors’ performances drag you headfirst into these 11-minute worlds. Whether the character is a vapid employee in hell or a stoner suffering a puppet induced existential crisis, the actors were able to pull it off without one realizing

“Producing a show out of thin air is no easy task, but Newfangled Theatre Company did it seamlessly.” how unconventional the part really was. Perhaps the most notable aspect of the 7/11 Project was the writing. Many of the scripts were full of a blunt, dark, irreverent, deadpan humor that made for a satisfying experience. There was this strange duality between the macabre and the absurd that many of the writers took advantage of, and that turned out to be highly effective. A common theme throughout the night was a take on a study of the misguided youths and bands of millennial misfits of the modern era. The writing was self-aware and even poked fun at itself, which was a treat for the audience to experience. The Newfangled Theatre Company’s 7/11 Project produced seven unifying yet individual vignettes to create a cohesive body of theater work that anyone should be proud of.

Praise for ‘Fargo’ Beyond Accents, Landscape FX stays true beyond storytelling with genuine casting of actors with disabilities OPINION

Jack Dura

Spectrum Staff

My Mondays have never been better. The day I usually dread is now all I look forward to after the weekend. Why? “Fargo” is on. FX’s crime drama started its second season last month, diving into another 10 episodes following the bloody tailspin of a beautician, a butcher, a crime family and a Missourian mafia. All set in the Upper Midwest. Fargo, North Dakota, included (OK, so they filmed in Canada, but hey, it’s Fargo in the story). While the accents are a little exaggerated by some actors, “Fargo” does a brilliant job in a number of areas. Like the 1996 film of the same name, this show has nailed its landscape. Flat.

White. Endless. Straight, open roads that stretch for miles. Yeah, that’s Fargo. Beyond that, FX has a cast of champions. Big names like Kirsten Dunst, Brad Garrett and Jeffrey Donovan line the cast, but also some little-known actors like Russell Harvard and Allan Dobrescu, who I’ve gotta highlight here. Harvard, a deaf actor, portrayed a hit man for a Fargo mob in season 1 while Dobrescu, whose right arm is affected by cerebral palsy, portrays the grandson of a Fargo crime boss in season 2. Both characters share the same disabilities as the actors behind them, a casting technique that I applaud. Not only does this provide opportunities for Harvard and Dobrescu, but the realities of their disabilities are woven into

the integral parts of the stories’ plots. Heck, the writers of “Fargo” went so far as to include American Sign Language in the show’s dialogue, which made for some awesome banter between Harvard and fellow actor Adam Goldberg, another Fargo mobster in the show. When did you last see ASL on TV? Or at all? Furthermore, the inclusion of a teenager with cerebral palsy is just another hit of reality here. Up to three out of 1,000 babies are born with the condition, and for Dobrescu’s character, he learns to adapt, even teaching himself how to cock and fire a handgun with one hand. So kudos to FX for being genuine in its casting and storytelling, the latter to IMDB.COM | THE SPECTRUM some extent. Dobrescu: Accurately representing a wider range of disabilities via television roles is the first We don’t all talk like step in breaking the cyclical pattern of non-inclusion in performing arts. that, you know.

Editor’s Choice: How to Handle a Quiet Events Calendar A&E Editor

here are a few suggestions on how to spend your “lull” week.

It’s Fargo, and let’s be honest, the event calendar can fall pretty bare from time to time. But it is my firm belief that boredom can foster creativity. With Fargo holding off until holiday-related gatherings are officially acceptable and performing arts productions put the final touches on their seasonal shows, we must be patient. But patience and boredom do not have to be synonymous, and with that,

The Rourke is transitioning into its George Pfeifer retrospective, and the Plains has two rockstar shows in Picasso’s Clay and Star Wallowing Bull’s retrospective. If you’ve yet to view these shows, do so; if you’re an art scene regular, there are other ways to take advantage of the public spaces. Museums are one of the rare societal creations that are generally free and have minimal behavioral

expectations. Go, look, don’t look, love it, hate it, take a nap: the choice is completely yours. My suggestion would be to take on an afternoon of homework in the Plains’ café space.

Island Park

These suggestions are only applicable due to an unseasonably warm fall, thanks to the El Niño and/or global warming. Whatever the cause of our lingering temperatures, it would be foolish for a northern Midwesterner to not take advantage. If it is warm enough,

think 50s or 60s, head down to the historic park in the late afternoon to catch a few of the local DJs playing their choice of electronic, techno and much more. This isn’t a scheduled happening, so cross your fingers that your afternoon stroll will lead to an outdoor dance sesh. Another Island Park happening is rooted in summertime celebration, and is again, shared through word of mouth. Happy hour in the park was a Friday ritual for those involved this summer, but with extended warmth a few more could

be squeezed in. Obviously, alcohol in public can only be administered under specific parameters, so I don’t suggest taking on this event yourself. Again, meander and you may run into some fun.

reception at the HoDo. From 5-7 p.m. Monday in the HoDo restaurant, work from longtime local artist Joel Hegerle will be on display and for purchase as part of the Hotel Donaldson’s rotating exhibit. His colorful background in neon and sign making, graphic design and his frequent stays in Mexico inform the latest series. His humor is evident in both the work and his vernacular. The reception is open to the public, and Mexicanstyle appetizers will be served.

Spreading the Christmas Joy Are you a Buddy or a Grinch?

“The countdown has begun. Bring on the snow and eggnog.”

Meghan Pegel Opinion Editor

After a long, generic compilation of Beatles music concludes, the store is filled with a jovial fade-in of Christmas bells, signifying the start of a new album, a holiday one at that. Two adolescents near me smile and nod their heads to the beat while their parents in close proximity give a deep sigh and a disappointing shake of their heads. Later that day I stopped to watch my bank put up their Christmas tree, an event that an observer could easily tell from the looks on the workers’ faces was more of a policy obligation SARAH_ACKERMAN | FLIKR CREATIVE COMMONS rather than a holidayGrinches deny anything Christmas or winter-related but eventually come around after they find spirited prompting. And here I am, the holiday spirit.

pintresting DIY holiday décor and listening to “She and Him Christmas” on repeat. The countdown has begun, people. Bring on the snow and eggnog. As far as I can tell, there are two people in this world: Grinches and Buddies. Grinches deny anything Christmas or winter-related but eventually come around after they find the holiday spirit. Don’t be discouraged, it may take some time. I’ve been working the spirit into my Grinch step-dad for over a decade now. In reference to Will Ferrell’s character “Buddy” from the popularized movie “Elf,” Buddies accept and internalize all things Christmas and are happier people because of it. They may seem naïve and unintelligent at first, but it is quite the contrary; they’ve actually found the meaning to life —

happiness in the little things. And I get it Grinches, it’s too soon for you still. Usually outwards anticipation for Christmas (décor, music, etc.) is held off until after Thanksgiving, a common rule of thumb for most of us. But really that’s not going to stop the corporate entities’ onsets and competitive presentation with their decoration and holiday advertisements. So parents and bank tree putter uppers: buck up. Life’s too short to dread the unchangeable portions of the future. Anyone who strongly supports the Buddy movement like myself or goes against these beliefs should send a letter to the editor to the email editor@ ndsuspectrum.com. But I must warn you Grinches, Santa is surely on my side.

Finding music that has a soul Cierra Steffensen Contributing Writer

Today, all anyone seems to listen to is the Top 40 songs that are played and replayed on the same radio stations that used to play Katy Perry and Robin Thicke on repeat. I’m not saying they aren’t great artists, but is this really what we want to be remembered by — party music and soulless verses? There is a whole other world out there, music with a soul and a heartbeat that isn’t all synchronized noise. Music that you can feel touching your bones. Now, I’m not trying to rag on rave music and the hip-hop heard at house parties. I’m simply saying there is so much more out there that doesn’t get heard. Artists that are relatable. Songs that can make you so sad that it actually hurts after the first seven seconds. Music that makes you so happy that you want to cry by the time the chorus begins. Mainstream music isn’t bad and shouldn’t be listened to, but if this music is all basically conceived through the same idea of conforming to fame, then is it really all that great? Shouldn’t people want to listen to music that is relatable when they didn’t even know that they needed to be related to? Artists like Banks, London Grammar, Hozier, Alessia Cara and Haley Reinhart need more appreciation for doing what they do. The raw emotion that goes into these artists’ music has an eerie resemblance to some sort of voodoo.

“The break in their voice on a certain note or the goose bumps that are sent down your spine create a whole new meaning to the music that you are listening to. “ They create a connection to the song that isn’t heard in any mainstream song. The break in a singer’s voice on a certain note or the goose bumps that are sent down your spine create a whole new meaning to the music that you are listening to. While it’s nice to be able to turn on the radio and sing to your heart’s content without having to even think about the lyrics, challenge yourself with deeper, more meaningful music. Someday, when you aren’t quite sure what you want or what you are feeling, I would suggest cranking up Spotify and listening to these songs.

SATIRE

Paul Subart Staff Writer

The University of North Dakota on Sunday named former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton its honorary interim president. The move was made by outgoing UND president Robert Kelly who feels like he can relate to the scandal ridden Hillary Clinton. Kelly has boldly led UND directly into whatever terrible direction he could find, honoring the universities legacy of being a general smelly dump devoid of all hope or legitimate academics. “I feel like we are practically related, who else has had as many scandals as myself, and has botched literally every major decision?” Said Kelly, “Hillary and I may have been twins separated at

birth, just saying.” Kelly decided the move after hearing that former North Dakota Governor Ed Schafer would be the interim president of UND, and decided UND needed somebody just as terrible as he is to continue his legacy, and balance out Schafer’s wisdom. Ed Schafer, who served as governor of North Dakota from 1992 to 2000, is known for making tough but necessary decisions, and for being an extraordinary leader, the likes of which UND doesn’t actually deserve. “Hillary and I had a lengthy conversation over email regarding what diabolical plans I have to drag this whole nickname thing out a few more years.” Said Kelly “though when we were done she mentioned something about deleting all those emails and wiping my server clean, smart lady.” Kelly claimed that it was Clinton’s handling of her Benghazi scandal that made him warm up to her faster than Bill Clinton warms up to interns. “The staff here at UND

When asked about her new honorary position, Hillary said she could not wait to have an entire university worth of law students at her disposal. “We plan to use alumni fundraising to help contribute to my campaign

fund which we will illegally funnel through the Clinton Foundation,” Said Clinton, “Bill also said he would be willing to run the Women and Gender Studies department at UND so expect big changes there.” Many people now find her UND presidency inevitable claiming we might as well give her the job just so that she will eventually go away. The hope is that this is far as her presidential ambitions will go leading Hillary to drop out of the national election. Meanwhile North Dakota State’s President Dean Bresciani said he welcomes Hillary to be UND’s interim president. “Bro, as long as Hillary is up there I could play kickball with a dead baby and nobody would bat an eye, this is great.”

GOP Debate? More like GOP Circus

GOP debates are more entertainment than actual debates

“The Republican debates are really the political equivalent to a high school gossip circle.”

Erik Jonasson II Staff Writer

“Good question, but I want to tell you, my great concern is that we are on the verge, perhaps, of picking someone who cannot do this job.” Queue face-to-palm. These debates are not debates. These debates are circuses. The Republican debates are really the political equivalent to a high school gossip circle. There are no answers actually being

answered; no one is allowed to finish; there is little truth and they are all clueless and dumb to the actual issues. If you don’t believe me, maybe you’ll believe these actual quotes from the second debate. Rand Paul for instance pointed out how “sophomoric” the tactics of Donald Trump are. “I think his response, his visceral response to attack people on their appearance … my goodness. That happened in junior high,” Paul said. Then Governor Kasich

pointed out that the issues are lost in all of the fighting. “I think it’s important we get to the issues, because that’s what people want, and they don’t want all of this fighting.” Finally Governor Walker pointed out, “Just because he says it doesn’t make it true; the facts are the facts.” Load up one of the Republican debates and the Democratic debate. Watch them both, no matter your political affiliation. I guarantee you that the Republican debate is going to be by far the more

All Students Should Take Philosophy 101 Students have no excuse not to know this subject

“Do not ever think that you are above taking a philosophy course on the grounds that it is too ‘artsy.’ I am looking at you STEM majors.”

Matt Frolich Staff Writer

When I graduated college, I realized I missed out on one of the most important classes offered in a university setting. Hopefully you never find yourself in my situation. I am referring to Philosophy 101. Philosophy is the most important class you will ever take in college, regardless of your major. Everyone has an obligation to learn its basic tenants. Philosophy has practical applications in every aspect of our lives, both personal and professional. It teaches you how to think critically and construct rational arguments. These may seem like simple skills that all adults should know, but that is not the case. After learning basic philosophy, you will realize there are many powerful people in society who fail to do this. Furthermore, you will realize that many of the people you once dismissed

as crazy are, in fact, quite rational. Learning philosophy has some drawbacks. Many people do not want the ability to think for themselves. If you are one of these people, then I question whether you even deserve a college degree. Do not ever think that you are above taking a philosophy course on the grounds that it is too “artsy.” I am looking at you STEM majors. If you can get over the initial shock of seeing what it is like to think for yourself, then philosophy will offer you numerous benefits. Regardless of your profession, it will give you the ability to make rationally constructed arguments and decisions that will enhance your career. It will enrich your personal life as well. For instance, you can use philosophy to determine when a used car salesman is trying to screw you over using a series of carefully crafted logical fallacies. Or you can use it to dismantle the web of lies constructed

by your significant other. It will even give you the ability to resist the media’s attempts at brainwashing, if you so desire. I oftentimes wonder about the world we would live in if everyone knew basic philosophy. Philosophy is the greatest enemy of tyranny worldwide. It is not guns dictators are afraid of, but people that have the ability to rationally question authority. One person armed with philosophy is more powerful than a thousand armed with AK47s. Our founding fathers were so aware of this that they decided to give free speech priority over the right to bear arms. Their intention was not to protect our right to be vulgar and offensive, but rather our right to use philosophy in a public forum. Interestingly, this is often regarded as vulgar and offensive. Philosophy will permanently change the way you look at the world. This is a good thing.

entertaining one. I have spent the past few days glued to my computer. They are hilarious. It’s like watching the ten or so stooges poking each other in the eyes for two and a half hours. Though that is all good and fun, let’s take this for what it actually is: a play to the audience. They say exactly what the audience wants to hear. Obama did the same thing; remember, we are still in Afghanistan. Politics aside, the issue with debates like this are that people actually buy into this circus. People think Trump commenting on another running mate’s hair makes him a good presidential candidate. Or at least that’s what the polls tell me.

These are not the real issues. Far too much of what these debates are is just a play to the audience. Whether it is a highly rehearsed cue looking to the camera with sympathetic eyes and trying hard to seem sincere like Mr. Cruz, or just random bull honky being spewed from a troll doll that just so happens to be a billionaire like Mr. Trump, it is all ridiculous. The whole point of a debate is to learn where people stand. It is not who looks the best or who can say the meanest thing, not that Hillary Clinton is the worst person on the face of the planet. Goodness, can we please just talk about the issues. As I sit on my bed eating popcorn, watching Trump

talk about how ugly Rand Paul is, I have to jolt myself back to reality. These men are fighting to be in the White House. They just might actually get there. This is the state of the GOP. Republicans, please take back your party. Please make a statement because the statement that is being made now by your party is not flattering. Living in North Dakota, I know conservatives are not marked by their ability to pick flaws out of people. Rather, conservatives here in this great state are hard working, honest, familyloving people, who have nothing bad to say to anyone. Maybe things won’t change, but a guy can dream.

Bison ‘Stick’ Around, Defeat Youngstown in Fourth Quarter Comeback Redshirt Freshman QB, Easton Stick showing improvement Jesse Barta

Contributing Writer

With only two games remaining in the regular season, the Bison football team trekked into Youngstown, Ohio, on Saturday to face Youngstown State. On the heels of their 59-7 win at home last week against Western Illinois, North Dakota State and newly promoted redshirt

freshman quarterback Easton Stick defeated Youngstown State 2724 with a late fourth quarter comeback. As Stick continues earning experience and adjusting to his role as starting quarterback, big plays and big numbers follow. “He’s been putting nice balls out there,” head coach Chris Klieman said about Stick after the game. “He needed a challenge in a game where he had to make plays in the fourth quarter.”

Stick scored the gamewinning touchdown, taking the ball up the middle of the field for the four yard score, capping off a nine-play, 54-yard drive. After seeing much success in last week’s game, throwing for 197 yards and four touchdowns, Easton seems to be finding his groove as the Bison’s new number one behind center. While the team saw success late on the offensive, the Bison converted just 3-of-13 third

down attempts. Stick was 9-of-18 passing for 176 yards, including a 66-yard pass to senior Zach Vraa that set up a field goal to get the Bison on the scoreboard in the second quarter. With star quarterback Carson Wentz out for the rest of the season, Easton has approached the starting job uncannily, throwing for seven touchdowns and even rushing for more than 400 yards in the last four games. Saturday’s win showed Bison fans Stick is more

than up for the task he’s been given. But the fans aren’t the only ones noticing Stick’s efforts. Junior DE teammate Brad Ambrosius showed his support for Easton while talking to media after the game Saturday, citing not only his impressive efforts on the field, but saying also “Easton is just a great guy.” “He handled it amazingly,” commented freshman running back Bruce Anderson when asked of his QB’s performance.

“He kept his composure and worked his magic”. That magic keeps the Bison tied with Illinois State atop the Missouri Valley Football Conference standings at 6-1 and will hopefully push them to close the season with a win. When asked how it felt walking into the end zone for the game-winning score, Easton didn’t need to say much: “It was joy”. The Bison play Missouri State at the 2:30 p.m. Saturday at the Fargodome.

Teschuk Shines at Midwest Regional Men’s and women’s cross-country round up Maggie Crippen Staff Writer

People recognize her name, even if you they pronounce it. Junior Erin Teschuk won the six-kilometer race, leading the Bison women to 13th place out of 32 teams at the NCAA Midwest Regional meet Friday in Lawrence, Kansas. Teschuk, the reigning NDSU Female Athlete of the Year, dominated the course in 20:07.7. The second place finisher was a long five seconds behind her.

The win automatically qualified Tesheck to the NCAA Division I CrossCountry Championships Saturday in Louisville, Kentucky. She also qualified for the NCAA Championships last year as a sophomore. Top finishers for the Bison women include redshirt freshman Brittany Brownotter and junior Taylor Janssen who were 64th and 79th place behind Teschuk, respectively. Freshman Emma Kusch Dahle finished 110th at 22:18.1 and sophomore Jenny Guilbert 142nd at 22:40.5, rounding out the

Bison five. Thirteenth place as a team is five spots better than last year, when the women finished in 18th place. Also an improvement of 105 points off the team score from last year, reducing it from 496 to 391. In terms of conference competition, the Bison finished Friday in front of South Dakota State and South Dakota, team that were second and first in the Summit League Championships two weeks ago. The Bison men took 17th place, with a team total of 437 points. The men’s

10-kilometer course saw the best finisher in freshman Derek Warner at 72nd place. Three of Warner’s four teammates in Kansas were sophomores or younger, freshman Matt Lundstrom finished 73rd sophomore Brant Gilbertson came in 99th, and Elliot Stone rounded out the team at 119th place. The only upperclassmen to race was senior Brendan Skime, and he finished 87th with a career-best 31:52.1 time. The men finished 16th last year, one place better than this year’s young squad.

Around the NBA OPINION

Taylor Kurth Staff Writer

We are three weeks into the NBA season, and here is what has caught my eye so far: The Golden State Warriors are successfully defending its title, doing so at a historic rate. The team has started out at a sizzling 11-0, beating the Houston Rockets, Denver Nuggets and New Orleans Pelicans by 15 or more and stomping the Memphis Grizzlies by 50. Remember, Memphis had Golden State on the ropes of last years Western Conference Semifinals when they were winning the series 2-1. The team is averaging a league-leading 114 per game. After winning his first

MVP last year, Stephen Curry has been the NBA’s best player, and it has not even been close. Curry is averaging an absurd 33.4 points per game, which leads the next closest player by 5 points. He has had four 20-point quarters this year. The rest of the NBA has two. Curry is at the peak of his powers right now. The New Orleans Pelicans have been very surprising. After shocking many last year and sneaking into the eighth seed, the team has bumbled out of the gate, starting a lowly 1-8. The schedule has been tough so far, facing the Warriors twice as well as the reigning Eastern Conference regular season winning Atlanta Hawks twice. What propelled them to last year playoffs

was Anthony Davis’ otherworldly play. This year he has just been incredible. He is averaging a mere 24 points and nine rebounds. Suprisingly, his field goal percentage, rebounds, steals, blocks and points are all down from last year. The Cleveland Cavaliers are off to a soaring 8-2 start. After dropping their opening game against the Chicago Bulls, the Cavs ripped off eight in a row on the back of Jedi-master LeBron James. James is leading the time in scoring (27 ppg), assists (6.4) and steals (2). The Cavs have yet to see dynamic point guard Kyrie Irving or skillful wing Iman Shumpert. Irving is suffering from a fractured left knee cap from game 1 of last year NBA Finals. He should be back within the

next two months. Shumpert had wrist surgery and was expected to miss the first month of the year. The No. 1 overall pick of the Minnesota Timberwolves KarlAnthony Towns has dominated Rookie of the Year talk. He is second in scoring only to the second pick, Jahlil Okafor,with 15.7 a game. He is first in rebounding at 10.3 a game. That also ranks sixth among all players. He leads all rookies with 2.3 blocks per game, which is eighth among all players. He leads all rookies in double doubles with six. That is tied for third in the NBA. He has done all this on a dazzling efficiency for a rookie. He has shot 49 percent from the field and 89 percent from the free throw line.

Bison Win 8 of 10 Weight Classes at 45th Bison Open Rodriguez wins third title, Zillmer takes second straight championship

Maggie Crippen Staff Writer

The North Dakota State Wrestling Team placed 11 athletes in the final matches on Saturday afternoon at the 45th Annual Bison Open. There were only 10 weight classes â&#x20AC;&#x201D; in two of the final matches Bison wrestlers were facing teammates â&#x20AC;&#x201D; and Bison won 8 of them. The Bison Open

champions from NDSU were Josh Rodriguez, Nick Oâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;Brien, Kyla Gliva, Andrew Fogarty, Tyler McNutt, Hayden Zillmer, Cordell Eaton, and Ben Tynan. Junior Josh Rodriguez decidedly won his third Bison Open championship. Like last year he won in the 125-pound group, and in 2012 he was the 133-pound champion. Second place finisher in the 20-7 major decision was South Dakota Stateâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s

Cameron Sykora. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I came in with a game plan of really opening up my offense trying to work on top, getting some turns,â&#x20AC;? Rodriguez said afterward in an interview, â&#x20AC;&#x153;If that didnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t work, I would just go back to my feet.â&#x20AC;? Senior Hayden Zillmer won his second straight 184-pound title with a pin at 4:28 over Timothy Young, who was wrestling unattached. It was Zillmerâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s second pin of the day. His other matches were hardly

contests; his record climbs to 9-0 this season. Zillmer is ranked sixth nationally. People say that the heavier weight classes are less fun to watch. They probably havenâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t seen junior transfer AllAmerican Ben Tynan. Last week when the Bison hosted Birginia, Tynanâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s 285-pound match against Pat Gillen went into sudden death. Tynan won 7-5 after a takedown. Visibly pumped up,

the bleached circled the mat with arms spread and nodding proudly. Saturday was nothing differentâ&#x20AC;&#x201D;after a victory he stood and pointed straight at the camera and celebrated in front of over 600 fans. Tynan won the 285-pound class Bison Open championship by major decision. â&#x20AC;&#x153;This was just an opportunity for our guys to get out on the mats and put into practice what we have been working on the last couple weeks,â&#x20AC;? head coach

Roger Kish said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;They were ready to go.â&#x20AC;? Other winners were Nick Oâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;Brian at 133-pounds, Kyle Gliva at 149-pounds, Andrew Fogarty 157-pounds, Tyler McNutt at 165-pounds, and Cordell Eaton at 197-pounds. Although not a winner, after a first round loss senior Mitchell Friedman (141-pounds) fought his way back through the consolation bracket to finish third. The Bison host Virginia Tech Sunday.

â&#x20AC;&#x153;As I sit here writing this, I believe the Bison have a legit chance to make some noise in the tournament.â&#x20AC;? OPINION

Pace Maier Sports Editor

They say itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s better to be late then never, but I donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t agree with that. Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s quite disrespectful, if you ask me. Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;m sorry this column has been on hiatus for the last few weeks. This column was on a roll. Every Monday it would be in the sports section of the newspaper. And then Halloween hit, and I have finally recovered from that holiday. Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;m not 100 percent what week it is. I know for a fact that both menâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s and womenâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s basketball clubs played this past weekend. And since Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;m writing this on Friday at 11:20 a.m., Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;m also not 100 percent sure what the outcomes of those games were. I know that itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ll be the second week of Bison basketball, and I know that this week will be the last regular season game for the football team, so letâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s shimmy and shake, and hereâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s what I love and hate for this week in NDSU

athletics.

What I love

The Summit League Tournament for volleyball is finally here. Friday will be the first matches on the tournament, and Sunday will be the championship match. Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s no secret that the Bison havenâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t been the most successful in this tournament. However, last season they did manage to win one match against Oral Roberts University, and as I sit here writing this, I believe the Bison have a legit chance to make some noise in the tournament. This year itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s in Colorado, and with it being the last shot Jenni Fassbender has, I think her and the Bison will come out swinging, and Brianna Rasmusson will continue to rack up assists in her sophomore postseason.

What I hate

In 2012-2013, the University of Maine womenâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s basketball team finished the season with an ugly 4-24 record. The next season the Black Bears

improved to 17-14, and last season the team went 23-9. The Bison women will try and keep UM from its winning ways. It will be tough; the Black Bears have a few student-athletes over 6â&#x20AC;&#x2122;1â&#x20AC;&#x2122;â&#x20AC;&#x2122;. NDSU senior guard Marena Whittle will try to score every possession, so stop her and you stop the Bison. Remember Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;m writing this on Friday before NDSUâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s first regular season game. I just donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t like the matchup between the two teams at all, and think this could get out of hand at the Bentson Bunker Fieldhouse for the Bison.

Gold bold prediction

My gold bold predication for this weekâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s NDSU athletic events is that the combined record for Bison sports in Fargo this week will be 2-5. Menâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s basketball will beat Valley City State and the football team will defeat Missouri State. Losers for the week will be womenâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s basketball and wrestling will get out-dueled by Virginia Tech.

5 Best Things About Shifting into Winter Season Here’s a roadmap for the biggest upcoming sports stories OPINION

Karson Sorby Staff Writer

Although the fall weather begins to leave us in exchange for our beloved arctic wasteland, the sports scene at North Dakota State are just beginning — and will continue — to heat up.

5. Wrapping up great seasons

First up is a successful women’s soccer team who suffered a disappointing loss to South Dakota State on Nov. 7. Though they fell to the Jackrabbits 3-0 in the Summit League Soccer Championship,

its regular season was anything but disappointing. Finishing with only six losses overall and the most wins since 2011, this team deserves some credit for the impressive season — even though it didn’t end the way they wanted it to.

4. Successful regular seasons have postseason promise

Finishing up its regular season home games, the women’s volleyball team snapped a seven-game losing streak to IUPUI to send them off on the road. With games this past Friday at South Dakota State and Sunday at Oral Roberts

University, the ladies are hoping to continue with their winning ways. Looking to continue success with its season as well is the men’s cross-country team that competed Friday at the University of Kansas. Finding success has been a common occurrence for the season and something they hope to continue in the NCAA Championships on Saturday. The women’s crosscountry team has also found success throughout the season. The team looks to move on to the NCAA Championships as Track and Cross-Country Athlete

of the Year Erin Teschuk did last season.

3. The start of new seasons

NDSU’s wrestling program hosts Virginia Tech on Sunday after hosting the 45th Annual Bison Open at the Fargodome last Saturday. Though it didn’t open the season at home, the men’s basketball team played Friday at UC Davis before traveling Sunday to Illinois. Hoping to continue the success they had last year are now-sophomores A.J. Jacobson and Paul Miller who were recognized last year as the top-scoring freshman pair in the

Summit League. With an unexpected exhibition loss to University of Minnesota-Crookston in the preseason, the women’s basketball team is hungry for a win. With two home games over the past weekend, NDSU will not play on the road until the San Diego State University Thanksgiving Classic over Thanksgiving.

2. Easing into playoffs … and Frisco preparations?

Is it too early to start preparing for a fifth trip to Frisco, Texas? Following one of the best games the Herd has played all season, it appears as if the team has its mojo back. With

only one game left, the team will have to fight hard to continue its successes. However, if they show up like they did last time home game, it should be an easy trip in securing a top seed in the postseason.

1. Incoming talent signs letters of intent

This is the time of year where all of next year’s incoming talent signs to become part of the NDSU family. New talent will include a track star, three softball players, a standout male golfer, seven baseball players and seven women’s basketball players, among others.

BISON ROUNDUP Jake Watters

Contributing Writer

The Bison men’s basketball team started out the season the right way by coming back and winning in incredible fashion going on a 10-2 run in overtime. Late into the fourth and through overtime, the Bison scored 19 straight points. Nine of them coming within two minutes left in the game to send it to overtime. Also, the defense came in clutch getting 14 straight defensive stops in the

fourth quarter. Sophomore guard Paul Miller had a game high 20 points, while Dexter Werner and Kory Brown each had a doubledouble respectively. Werner had a game high 12 rebounds. The Bison showed great toughness and grit in this game by beating a very good UC Davis, who was the Big West Conference regular season champs last year with a very respectable 25-7 record. Malik Clements, a transfer student, added 13 points in just 18 minutes in his NDSU debut. Kory

Brown a senior guard, added 10 points and 10 rebounds, not flashy numbers but also plays very good defense for the squad. Josh Fox led the Aggies with 16 points and 12 rebounds, Neal Monson also had a nice 14-10 game for the Bison. The Bison will look to make its third straight appearance to the NCAA Men’s Basketball Tournament. There is a lot of hard work to be put in for that to happen, but this game shows we have to will power to fight. The Bison will have

their home debut on November 18th at the BBF at 7 p.m. versus the Valley City Vikings. NDSU women’s volleyball traveled to SDSU to take on the rival Jackrabbits. Jenni Fassbender had a monster game, recording a new career high in kills with 25. Beating her last career best by only two, which ironically was also against the Jackrabbits. The Bison held off SDSU and win five sets to two, NDSU is now 5-2 in games that reach the fifth set. They improve to 18-11 overall, 9-6 in the

conference. Brianna Rassmusson continues to be great for the Bison, leading the team in digs and assists. Rassmusson had a career high 23 digs, 33 assists, five kills, two blocks and an ace to finish off that stat line. The Bison had 4 players in double digit kills, including 5’6” defensive specialist Morgan Samec, who hit her way to a career high 14 kills. Emily Miron and Emily Minnick both had 10 kills, Minnick also adding three blocks. They continue to be a lethal duo that will always be a problem for opposing

teams. Fassbender finished the game with a hitting percentage of .367. As a team, NDSU hit .271 and the Jacks hit just .254. Mikala Hora led SDSU with 18 kills, while Wagner Larson and Ashley Beaner added 16 each. Mattison Munger totaled 49 assists and 11 digs. NDSU will finish out the regular season versus Oral Roberts on the 15th of November at 2 p.m. With a win the Bison will get their tenth win in the Summit League and have some momentum heading into the tournament.
