Controversial Obama costume sparks debate By Peter Coutu THE DAILY CARDINAL

A President Barack Obama costume including a noose worn at the Saturday Badger football game sparked outrage on social media from alumni and students, including critiques of UW-Madison officials’ defense of free speech. The university quickly issued a statement on the costume, labeling it as offensive while still defending the individual’s right to wear a mask of the president with a noose around their neck. “The costume, while repugnant and counter to the values of the university and Athletic Department, was an exercise of the individual’s right to free speech,” read a statement from the university. Chancellor Rebecca Blank also addressed the costume Sunday, defending the person’s right to wear it if the noose was removed. “As offensive as this costume was, I believe our university must resist

the desire to outlaw forms of speech and political dissent with which we disagree,” Blank said in the statement. “We strive to build a campus community in which ideas and expression are exchanged freely.” However, Blank added the costume “fell painfully short” of the university’s standard for thoughtful discourse. A person at the game tweeted out a picture of the costume, which quickly spread through social media, sparking a debate about the line between free speech and offensive imagery. As of 11 p.m., the original tweet has more than 3,000 retweets. Former UW-Madison Police Department Chief Sue Riseling also agreed with the university’s statement, saying the person was exercising their First Amendment rights. Many critics responded on social media, labeling the costume as hate speech. Several people who identified themselves as alumni of the university said they were disappointed with the university’s response.

Judge orders Cook’s bail at $200,000 at initial court hearing By Sammy Gibbons THE DAILY CARDINAL

Bail was set at $200,000 for suspended UW-Madison student Alec Cook Thursday, as the 20-year-old made his initial appearance in court. Cook was charged with 11 felony sexual assault counts, two counts of false imprisonment, one strangulation count and more than 15 misdemeanor sexual assault counts. The judge said he found probable cause in the criminal complaint for each of the charges alleged. Cook entered a plea of not guilty on the misdemeanor charges. Cook’s attorneys, Chris Van Wagner and Jessa Nicholson Goetz, will notify the District Attorney’s office 48 hours before Cook posts the bail. Cook’s bail was set on the condition that he remains in the Dane County Jail until he has had a hearing to address nonmonetary conditions of the bond. Five separate accusers have come forward, the first of which mirrors the original criminal

complaint. One woman accused Cook of inappropriately touching her during a ballroom dance class they both took during the spring. Nicholson Goetz believed these accusations were not valid, and that the other four women consented to intercouse with Cook. The defense said the criminal complaint does not support the “slaughtering” of their client that has occurred in the media over the last 10 days, an issue which they addressed in a press release Thursday. The complaint does not show that Cook stalked woman or possessed stalking notebooks. “There’s nothing to support the monster that exists in the minds of all of the people of UW-Madison,” Van Wagner said. “This is what we were waiting for. This is what the state believes they have.” Nicholson Goetz said they have not seen the notebooks that have been referred to in the media. They have one page of a

One response on Twitter called the statement from the university “appallingly misguided,” and stressed that “hate speech is not protected as free speech.” They urged UW-Madison to revisit their in-stadium costume policy and consider a stronger response in the future, such as revoking the person’s season tickets or permanently banning them from the stadium. UW-Madison basketball player Nigel Hayes also commented on the situation, saying he was offended the fan was even allowed into the game. UW Athletics’ Guest Services approached the fan when the noose was spotted and requested that the person either leave or remove the offensive parts of their costume. The person complied, leaving the stadium voluntarily, according to UW-Madison spokesperson Meredith McGlone. Masks can be worn inside the stadium, though they can’t be worn when entering. Nooses are not allowed in Camp Randall, according to university officials.

Madison Police Department ‘very pleased’ with Freakfest, one person goes to jail

Associated Students of Madison representative Kenneth Cole wrote a letter resigning from SSFC and the body as a whole.

Cole announces intent to resign from SSFC, ASM Kenneth Cole, a Student Council representative, has announced his intent to resign from his role in the Associated Students of Madison, quickly following a petition circulating on social media calling for him to step down. But ASM Chair Carmen Goséy said she is unsure of Cole’s status on the council as he did not give an official notice to resign from the body. She said she does not know if he intends to only resign from his seat on the Student Services Finance Committee or his position on Student Council as well. Cole was also slated for possible removal from SSFC during its Thursday meeting for racking

up too many unexcused absences, but did not attend the meeting and instead sent in a letter indicating his resignation from that committee and student government as a whole. In the letter, Cole said that being a part of ASM has taken a “damaging toll” on his academic standing, mental health and public image, among other things. “At the forefront, I feel compelled to do this because of my relationship with God and what I believe God is telling me in my life currently,” Cole wrote. Cole did not immediately respond to a request for comment. —Madeline Heim

The Madison Police Department was “very pleased” with how Freakfest went this year, according to a press release from Public Information Officer Joel DeSpain. The crowd reached a total of 30,000 throughout the event, and there were no “serious incidents” reported. At 1 a.m., there had been 13 arrests, most of which were citations, and only one person went to jail, according to the release. The event shut down State Street intersections from 5 p.m. to 3 a.m. The total attendance was 4,000 less than last year’s 10th anniversary Freakfest. The number of arrests rose from nine, but fewer people went to jail, according to a 2015 incident report. “The MPD would like to thank our law enforcement partners for helping keep the peace: Dane County Sheriff, Middleton Police, Fitchburg Police, Capitol Police, UW Police and the Wisconsin State Patrol,” DeSpain wrote in the report.

“…the great state University of Wisconsin should ever encourage that continual and fearless sifting and winnowing by which alone the truth can be found.”

UW-Madison indigenous students aid protesters at Standing Rock, plan to send money and donations in size. “This is the largest gathering [of indigenous people] in over 150 years,” Bowman said. “This is not just an indigenous student’s issue, this is everybody’s issue.” Thursday, protesters in the construction path were met with heavy police resistance. Police and private security forces used rubber bullets, grenades and long-range acoustic devices to disperse protesters, reportedly killing horses and injuring a number of protesters.

The pipeline is also a potential threat to local water sources and ecosystems. According to their website,

the Dakota Access Pipeline is a multibillion-dollar oil transportation infrastructure project designed to span a stretch of around 1,200 miles from North Dakota to Illinois. The DAPL would carry approximately

500,000 barrels of crude oil per day across its length. The pipeline’s construction prompted a large negative response from Native Americans and locals, and protests around the pipeline continue to grow

The donation drive, taking place in Bascom Hall, will last until Wednesday at noon when all items will be taken to the Standing Rock Sioux Reservation. Bowman hopes to raise $3,000 for larger items through their GoFundMe page. “This isn’t something that just happened in one indigenous community,” Bowman said. “It happens all the time, everywhere.

Third student diagnosed with serogroup B of meningococcal disease hospitalized Despite an aggressive vaccination campaign, the university confirmed a third student has contracted a strain of meningococcal disease, according to a Thursday release. The student, who is being treated at a local hospital, will receive further testing to confirm if the illness is related to the rare serogroup

B that had infected two other students earlier this month. University Health Services is urging all undergraduates under the age of 25 to get vaccinated, and so far more than 12,000 students have received the vaccine since it became available last Thursday. For students who have not yet been vaccinated,

the vaccine will be available for free at the Southeast Recreational Facility from 10 a.m to 5 p.m. Thursday and Monday, as well as Nov. 2 from noon until 8 p.m. Meningitis is a serious disease with a rapid onset of symptoms, and officials are urging anyone who believes they may be experiencing symptoms to contact UHS immediately.

Wisconsin economy is on the decline, new research says By Ningyuan Ma THE DAILY CARDINAL

UWPD cited the student who started the fire, which scorched a bulletin board in Witte Residence Hall around 2 a.m. Friday.

Student cited for starting fire in Witte Students were evacuating Witte as the Madison Fire Department arrived to an alarm activation around 2 a.m. Friday, according to a daily report. “UWPD officers informed Engine 1 there was smoke on the second floor, prompting firefighters to call for a full structure fire response,” MFD Public Information Officer Cynthia Schuster wrote in the report. “Meanwhile, Engine 1 proceeded to the second floor, where they didn’t find smoke or fire

but did discover scorch marks on a bulletin board in the hallway near the elevators.” The firefighters then cancelled the full structure fire response, and reset the building’s fire alarm panel. Residents were then able to return inside. UWPD led the investigation into the fire and identified the student who started it by Saturday. According to the report, the student said he was “very intoxicated” at the time of the incident.

In an election season dominated by doom and gloom about workers and the economy, some of this pessimism may ring true in Wisconsin, according to a new report by UW researchers.

“Wisconsin faces a potential labor shortage driven primarily by an aging demographic.” The Wisconsin Economy Report UW Extension and UW-Madison

In the report, the researchers from UW-Madison and the UW Extension said Wisconsin is faced with a disproportionate loss of talent caused in part by a low domestic immi-

gration rate of people with college degrees. In terms of educational attainment, Wisconsin has a strong high school graduation rate compared to both neighboring states and the rest of the country. However, only 28.4 percent of the Wisconsin workforce has a bachelor’s degree or higher, ranked in the middle among upper Midwest states, according to the research. Data also showed that instead of a “brain-drain,” which is often cited as the reason for the state’s talent loss, Wisconsin is actually experiencing a lack of “brain-gain.” Wisconsin has lower outmigration compared to most states, including the states absorbing more workforce talent. It has an even lower

in-migration rate, leading only six other states. This led researchers to conclude that the reason for the “brain-drain” is more likely due to the extremely low rate of in-migration. Considering the low level of educational attainment of the workforce, the projected job growth through 2022 in the research also suggested a potential skill mismatch and job polarization. According to the Wisconsin Economy Report, “Wisconsin faces a potential labor shortage driven primarily by an aging demographic.” There are expected to be excessive low-skill jobs requiring high school diplomas and insufficient positions for college-educated people, which is arguably a reason for the state’s low net migration rate of talents.

LSU president says more funding vital for public colleges By Andrew Bahl THE DAILY CARDINAL

Declining levels of state funding pose a potentially fatal threat for public higher education, Louisiana State University President F. King Alexander told a group of faculty, students and researchers Friday. Alexander, who received his doctorate from UW-Madison, has led LSU during a time when the state slashed funding for the university system by over 50 percent. If states like Louisiana or Wisconsin continue to decrease funding, they would effectively become private institutions, he said. “LSU is on our football helmets, but why have the ‘S’ if you aren’t going to fund us?” Alexander said in his talk, which was organized by the Wisconsin Center for the Advancement of Postsecondary Education. Alexander said research has suggested that states including Colorado, Minnesota and Iowa would not invest any public money in their state university systems by 2032 if current funding patterns continue.

He said these trends have come out of efforts to strengthen private institutions at the expense of public ones. Since 1972, the Pell Grant and other federal funding has been made available to all colleges, public or private. These policies backfired, Alexander said, with private universities becoming more expensive and enrolling less diverse populations while public schools fought for scarce state dollars. “This issue of putting public money in public places for public goods is a big issue,” he said. “Because we did the exact opposite.” But in a year where the price of higher education has been on the lips of presidential candidates and lawmakers from coast to coast, little attention has been paid to what Alexander called “the back-end” of state funding. “What you hear is the free college, Bernie Sanders’ idea, because it is sexy and in the news,” he said. “What’s behind the scenes is this: They can’t even propose free college tuition if they continue to let states divest from higher education.”

UW-Madison’s Working Class Student Union presented their annual budget for the upcoming fiscal year to the Student Services Finance Committee, who approved it in a meeting Thursday.

Working Class Student Union’s annual budget approved by finance committee By Megan Provost THE DAILY CARDINAL

UW-Madison’s Working Class Student Union, a student organization focused on providing support to “working class, first-generation and low-income students,” presented their budget proposal for the 2017-’18 fiscal year to the Student Service Finance Committee Monday. After returning $9,000, or 19 percent of the previous fiscal year’s budget, the organization requested a 4 percent decrease for the coming year in an attempt to be “fiscally conscious and conservative,” according to WCSU member Hong Trinh.

Increases in the new budget include a wage increase from $9.19 to $10.50, in addition to a $100 increase in printing in order to promote new programming, a $50 increase in transportation spending for their Cultural Showcase and a $40 increase for supplies during kick-off events. The increased spending for Cultural Showcase transportation is derived from bringing in live drummers to accompany UW-Madison’s African dance team during their performance at the event. According to Trinh, the team has been performing at the WCSU Cultural Showcase for roughly four to five years,

and the WCSU hopes to further that relationship on campus. The $40 requested increase for kick-offs will go toward the series of kick-off events that the organization has chosen to hold at the beginning of the school year, rather than hosting one large event. Decreases in the budget include a $50 decrease in Art Night spending due to the organization no longer needing to rent space for the event in light of their new, larger office space, and a $100 decrease in funding for the Resource Library, as WCSU hopes to focus more on updating the library rather than building it.

Green Party supporters rally in Madison for Jill Stein By Andy Goldstein THE DAILY CARDINAL

Suspended UW-Madison student Alec Cook will be released from jail following payment of his $200,000 bail and a final hearing. notebook, which she described as “misquoted” from their previous hearing. Van Wagner showed a photograph of the page, which showed a bullet-pointed list that described meeting people and nothing violent. There was no category marked “kill.” The page had the word “killed” with crossed off and with a question mark next to it in the top right right corner that Van Wagner said could mean the death of a relationship. The list had categories for qualities of individuals, such as “major” and “what makes her special.” Van Wagner said they contend that do not know what the list is.

“There was no woman named, there was no description of violence or anything of that nature,” Nicholson Goetz said. “Certainly I have not seen anything released that fits the description as things have been reported.” Cook will return to his parents’ home in Edina, Minn. if he is released. He remains banned from UW-Madison. “We are going to focus on defending the criminal case,” Nicholson Goetz said. “I don’t want to see Alec’s future permanently put on hold, and so that is a concern. The primary concern is protecting his liberty.”

Green Party supporters rallied Thursday for their nominee Jill Stein in an attempt to reach out to dissatisfied voters in the progressive hub of Madison. Stein was scheduled to speak at the event, but ultimately canceled due to a minor sickness contracted from campaign travel, according to party surrogates. In an election between two of the least popular major party nominees in history, voters, especially millennials, have shown an increased interest in third party options.

“The Bernie campaign showed that there is a real craving for an alternative.” Bryan Ward organizer International Socialist Organization

“I heard [Stein] was going to be speaking today, so I thought it would be really cool and interesting to see a new perspective,” said UW-Madison freshman Michael Gilger. “I mostly agree with the things she

stands for, even though I don’t really identify with a party.” In a recent New York Times poll, more than onethird of millennial voters said that they intend to support either Libertarian candidate Gary Johnson or Stein. Bryan Ward, an organizer with the International Socialist Organization, sees space for this support to grow. “The Bernie campaign showed that there is a real craving for an alternative. Jill Stein is putting herself out as that alternative right now,” Ward said. Bernie Sanders, who ran against Democratic nominee Hillary Clinton in the primary, has been campaigning for the Democratic nominee across the country, attempting to consolidate his dissatisfied supporters behind her. Among his primary voters, about 13 percent reported they will support Stein, while 69 percent stated they will back Clinton. Stein has focused heavily on swaying ex-Sanders supporters, highlighting the ideological similarities between the two left-of-center candidates. Despite these similarities, Sanders has consistently discouraged voting third party in the light of a

possible Trump presidency, instead speaking on behalf of Clinton and Democrats across the country, including Wisconsin senatorial candi-

date Russ Feingold. “When we’re talking about president of the United States, in my own personal view, this is not the time for a protest vote,” Sanders said, according to the Washington Post. But many progressive voters feel left behind by the Democratic party, according to Dace Zeps, an administrator at the UW-Madison Department of Gender and Women’s Studies. “The Fight for $15 is a really tough campaign,” said Zeps, referring to the national push for a minimum wage of $15 an hour. “The Democrats swooped in and said ‘How about $10.10?’ You know that’ll get you off of welfare, but it won’t let you do just about anything else.”

Just past the Capitol sits Sujeo, a restaurant with an eclectic mix of Asian-inspired cuisine.

Take a trip to Sujeo for unique Asian-style food By Trevor Kniaz the daily cardinal

A little off the beaten track, at 10 N. Livingston Street, Sujeo offers an eclectic mix of Asianinspired dishes from James Beard Award-winning chef Tory Miller. As Madison graduates from a big small city into a small big city, the restaurant scene has taken off. Over the last five years in particular, it has become more crowded, creating a healthy competition that has pushed restaurants to perform and put out better food than ever before. Sujeo, open for two years, is part of this new restaurant scene. Though Madison may always be revered for its cheese curds, this new surge of restaurants is offering a wider and more diverse variety of cuisines. The bibimbap, one of Sujeo’s most popular dishes, is an authentic Korean dish served in a piping-hot 500-600 degree stone bowl filled with sizzling rice, vegetables and a choice of meat. It is finished off with a fresh raw egg that is cracked on top and cooks in the bowl as it is blends into the sizzling rice. The flavors are best when stirred together and punctuated by crunchy rice from the crust that forms at the bottom of the scorching-hot bowl. This all comes with a side of ssamjang, a cool, spicy Korean paste that adds some flavorful heat. At $18, the bibimbap is one of the highest-priced items on the

menu, but is a perfect choice for sharing and hearty enough to provide a smaller-sized meal for two. The best reason to check Sujeo out may be for their ramen noodle bar. Restaurant Manager Jeff Spear calls the Korean-style veggie ramen one of his favorite choices on the menu, saying, “It is super indicative of the Korean flavors, balanced between sweet and spicy.” The Korean-style veggie ramen comes with shiitake mushrooms, pickled mustard greens and a soft-boiled egg in a spicy broth. The noodles for the ramen dishes come from Sun Noodle in California. Jeff says Sun Noodle“sort of reverseengineered a noodle that would work well with flavors of the ramen broth we made.” The starch in the noodles is designed to grab up the broth so you can slurp up the noodles and broth together. Other standouts from the noodle bar include the shio ramen, which comes with pork belly and katsuobushi salt that the menu says makes the dish “taste like the ocean,” and miso ramen, a bowl of flavorful noodle broth that comes with shredded chicken, corn, bok choy and a soft-boiled egg. As the cold creeps in, these steaming bowls of ramen are a good way to warm up. All these ramen come priced at $12 and are filling enough to satisfy one person.

For those looking for more familiar choices, the Dan Dan, priced at $12, comes with udon noodles served in a spicy peanut sauce with Sichuan chili oil and ground pork that might taste even better as a leftover. Sujeo also has their own take on those ubiquitous cheese curds, served here with kimchi and gochujang mayo. These are a nice bar snack to nibble on while trying one of Sujeo’s signature cocktails. Along with some more classical choices—mai tais, tiki cocktails, Prohibition-style cocktails, etc.—Sujeo’s signature cocktails like the Tongue-tied, a mango margarita with Thai chili and tequila, or the Shipwreck, a coconut and rum cocktail, are huge hits. On Monday, Wednesday and Thursday carafes of wine, Soju—a popular Korean distilled alcohol—and sake come half-priced. Sujeo has popular late-night deals from 10 p.m. to 1 a.m. Thursday through Saturday. Some offers for hungry visitors are Korean-style roasted chicken, three different noodle bowls and a Sujeo-style hot dog with kimchi, mayo and kimkim hot sauce. While Sujeo may not be quite as conveniently located for students as the familiar haunts on State Street, it is still just a few blocks from the Capitol and James Madison Park. For those looking to take advantage of a booming culinary scene, Sujeo might be a good place to start.

If you find yourself wanting to freshen up your makeup routine, but do not want to constantly buy new makeup products, there are a few ways to use the products you already have in different ways. Use these tips not only as a way to save money, but also as a quicker way to get ready in the morning. Lipstick as blush A great way to get a new color on your cheeks is with lipstick. Take any one shade and dab a few dots on the apples of your cheeks. Then use either a dense stippling brush or your ring finger to blend out the color. This works best in layers, so start lightly and add more as you need. For an added bonus, apply the same shade to your lips for a matchy-matchy effect. Eyeshadow as highlighter To compliment your flushed cheeks, use a light, shimmery eye shadow shade on the tops of your cheekbones. Any gold, champagne, or silver color will look stunning. Dab your ring finger or a small setting brush into the shadow and lightly brush it on your cheekbones, just where the light would naturally hit. If you want to diffuse it to make the color more muted, take a large, fluffy brush and blend, blend, blend. Concealer as foundation This is something that can completely replace your foundation, or can simply be used in a pinch if you find yourself without foundation in a time of need. Concealer is designed to be thicker and higher-coverage than foundation, so be sure to use it sparingly and only in areas of need, like under the eyes, and on chin and nose. Lightly dot it over your cheeks and forehead if you want to cover spots or color correct.

For the love of lube: some sexy, slippery tips

ANNA WELCH sex columnist

This week I’m giving due credit to the unsung hero of sex-lube! The concept of lube is pretty simple—put it on something you want to slide in and out of something else, and have at it. But, there are a few caveats that are helpful to know before diving into the wonderful world of lube. This slippery stuff has oodles of benefits that can make sex safer, easier and hella pleasurable. Unfortunately, many people believe lube is only for old ladies or people who aren’t

Cons

Pros

It’s great for people with penises who want to use it to masturbate!

Cons It’s terrible for pretty much all other purposes. Oil-based lube—as the name suggests—has oil in it, which means it’s unsafe to put inside any orifices (think vaginas, anuses, etc.) because it can upset the natural balance of these areas and cause yeast infections.

It can stain things like clothes, sheets, etc.—so proceed with caution. Laying down an old towel is an easy fix. It’s hard to get off. Being a slippery mess between the sheets is a grand ol’ time, but once the fun is over it can be frustrating. Plan accordingly. It degrades silicone toys. For folks with toys made of other materials like hard plastic, glass or metal, silicone lube can be a great tool. But, silicone lube and silicone toys don’t play nice and could lead to the tragic demise of a favorite sex toy.

Where can I get it? Multiple varieties of silicone and water-based lube are available for UW students FOR FREE at Sex Out Loud’s office, 3143 in the Student Activity Center at 333 East Campus Mall. Can’t make it to Sex Out Loud between 10 a.m. and 6 p.m Monday through Friday? That’s okay! There is always a bowl of silicone and water-based lube outside the

office door, even when it’s locked! There are tons of places to buy lube on campus. Pretty much any grocery or convenience store has lube, although variety may be limited. A great way to know what kind of lube works best for someone is to try out a sample size (again, provided for free at Sex Out Loud) and then commit to

buying a bottle once a winner has been found. A Woman’s Touch located at 302 S. Livingston St. is a lovely, sex-positive sex store that has a fantastic selection of safer sex supplies, including many types of silicone and water-based lubes. Find a friend with a car, order an Uber or hop on a bus to be delighted with all they have to offer.

REVIEW

they’ve used or other lube they’ve used has given them bad reactions, there are tons of uber-organic water-based lubes available. If someone knows they have a pretty severe sensitivity they can try finding a gentle organic lube and buying non-lubricated condoms to use it with.

Cons It doesn’t stick around as well as siliconebased. Because water-based lube is similar to the lubricant produced naturally by bodies it tends to dry out a bit quicker. Solution: just splash some more on. It will wash away during water play—wah wah. If people are trying to get freaky in watery settings silicone based lube is the right choice.

How do I, uh, use it? As I suggested in the beginning, lube is super easy to use. For pals with penises who wear condoms, just squeeze a couple of drops onto the inside and outside of the condom and penetrate away. For folks with any other type of equipment between their thighs, just put a couple of drops wherever the most friction is happening and voilà! Slippery fun for

everyone! As a side note, people who want lube-ier sex, but who don’t like reaching for a bottle every time they need more wetness, might try ultra-lubricated condoms as an alternative. Additionally, some people might find they would rather reach for a new condom than try to revive a dried-out one with more lube— that’s a totally valid thing to do.

Freakfest Vibes and Music

State Street bustles in costumes and candor By Chris Lueneburg THE DAILY CARDINAL

Freakfest’s appeal should be immediately apparent to most that endeavor through the gates at the bottom of State Street and through the costumed crowd. The festival does not play coy with its appeal. While far from unsafe, the rowdy atmosphere of the event still harkens back to its first years when nearriots attracted attention from police armed with pepper spray. Even with unruly behavior, attendees appeared to wholeheartedly appreciate the music and sights the event had to offer. Upon entering the gates, the crowded State Street corridor moving to the main stage at Capitol Square was lined with unexpected moments. Groups of students weaved through the crowds with efficient intent, making impressive time as they flowed toward the different stages. Groups of Clark Kents and Ricks with their Mortys compared their costumes in hilarious displays of one-upsmanship. Others forwent costumes in favor of comfort, wearing flannels and jackets, unapologetically going to Freakfest for the music alone. A strained clown on stilts squatted to pose for pictures until he became unbalanced and fell to the ground. The spontaneity many experienced on the street raised the question “Where else, but Freakfest?” When the yells and heated discussion died down for brief unscripted pauses, a dense and varied soundscape emerged. Between the Country Stage and the Mountain Dew Stage the sounds of several events met. The crowd at the intersection of Johnson and State experienced an odd assortment of sounds simultaneously. Har Mar Superstar’s sexually charged R&B meshed with Greta Van

Fleet’s energetic twang, resulting in a head-spinning cacophony. While some attendees came for a specific act, the audience was receptive to new sounds and ideas. Outside the Overture Center, a crowd gathered around an artist playing a rousing solo on the saxophone. When the artist breathlessly completed the solo the audience gave staggering applause. An appreciation for music outside of the mainstream continued on the main stage. The soulful wailing of St. Paul and the Broken Bones, an act that was largely unknown to many attendees, attracted a surprising crowd. The audience embraced unexpected new sounds with positivity and excitement, showing a willingness to expand their musical boundaries. Unfortunately, this openness came at a cost. Audience members often resorted to aggression to ward off the busy crowds. On several occasions, attendees raced and bickered to get selfies with elaborately costumed characters. Groups fought viciously to get closer to the front. When pushed, the packed crowd pushed back, causing waves of attendees to fight for their footing. Substance abuse was blatant, sometimes belligerently so. The disorderly nature of the crowd made some moments of fun feel unnecessary and contrived. However, when artists took the stage, attendees dropped the pretense of aggression to simply enjoy the music. At Freakfest 2016, attendees showed appreciation for new and different sounds and experiences, but were less open-minded in their conduct. The festival was full of fresh and unexpected moments. Unfortunately, you often needed to fight to experience them.

Fans scream excitement for impressive Freakfest rap lineup By Logan Rude THE DAILY CARDINAL

Year after year, Freakfest has been one of Madison’s biggest events. The huge Halloween festival has hosted major artists from different genres including Cage the Elephant, Mac Miller and Timeflies. This year, hiphop had a unprecedented presence at the festival. Madison has a growing hip-hop scene with incredible talent. This year, Freakfest pulled out some of the best to perform at the WSUM/Ian’s Pizza Stage. Not only did they pull from rising Madison stars, Freakfest also booked Dr. Dre protégé Anderson .Paak to headline the Mountain Dew Capitol Stage. First to go on at the WSUM/ Ian’s Pizza Stage was Rich Robbins. After releasing his second project All. This.Gold, Robbins has been working nonstop to keep his momentum going. His set was filled with enthusi-

asm and positivity; those feelings have become a common theme at his shows. Despite a fairly low turn out for his show, Robbins’ energy was infectious and got the audience excited for what would eventually become the finale of his show. In conclusion, Robbins released his first song since All.This. Gold by means of a live performance, perhaps hinting at a new project in the near future. Shortly after Robbins’ show, UW-Madison sophomore Lucien Parker hopped on stage to continue the night. Freakfest served as Lucien’s first festival appearance after releasing a mixtape with the name Black Sheep. Using the growing audience to his advantage, Lucien debuted a few new songs. Fans became ecstatic when they heard the new tracks, adding to the buzzing vibe of Freakfest as the night continued. Feeding off of the crowd’s intensity, Lucien brought his A-game while he hyped up the crowd even

more. Grateful for his spot at Freakfest, Lucien praised and thanked all his fans in attendance for making it all possible as he left the stage for the remainder of the night. At this point, Freakfest’s attendance had skyrocketed. Starting with Rich Robbins’ set there were roughly 250 people at the WSUM/Ian’s stage. By the time Lucien finished his set, there were around 500 at the stage. People continued to flow into the area as a DJ and multiple others put forth their best efforts to extend the momentum to the next show. Local rapper, Mic Kellogg jumped on stage next. His show was undeniably filled with the most involved showmanship, but not necessarily the most lively. Kellogg pulled off a costume change mid-show while he had a friend perform a song allowing for time to make the change. While not as energetic as the previous performers, Kellogg still suc-

ceeded in getting people amped for his set. Kellog’s mostly served as a precursor to a more sophisticated singingrapping combo that would come with Trapo’s set. However, before Trapo went on, the fans in attendance were surprised with another impromptu performance. This time, from Webster X. Webster X’s performance was short and sweet. Joined by five or six other people on stage, the short show was thrown into overdrive when a couple people, including KennyHoopla, began stage diving. All of this energy up to this point served as a primer for Madison’s crown jewel: Trapo. The 18-year-old’s mature sound, mixed with his youthful energy, resulted in a truly unique set. In addition to a few songs from his latest EP She, Trapo played “Beg,” the first single from his upcoming album Shade Trees. Partaking in what seemed to become common practice for the Madison rappers that night, Trapo performed a new song from the upcoming album. Filled with insane energy, Trapo went on to thank the entire crowd for everything they’ve allowed him to do. Once Trapo’s set at the WSUM/ Ian’s pizza stage ended, preparations for Anderson .Paak’s set were being made at the opposite end of State Street. Fans packed into the area around the Mountain Dew Capitol Stage in anticipation for the biggest headliner of the night. Arriving on stage with his band The Free Nationals, .Paak and the band members emerged dressed as 80s glam rockers while AC/DC played over the loudspeakers. Their grand

entrance proved to be an indication of the direction the show would take. Anderson .Paak opened up with the song most resembling a traditional party song: “Come Down.” The most energetic performer of the entire night, .Paak literally sprinted across the stage while rapping and dancing faster than one would think is possible. From the get-go, Anderson .Paak and The Free Nationals had an incredible show. Taking songs from his album Malibu, .Paak altered the tempos, melodies and structures of the songs, making them completely new beings. In particular, the song “The Season / Carry Me” was split early and .Paak went into a drum solo while retelling the childhood story of begging his mother for his first pair of Jordans. The entire show maintained the energy that .Paak was demanding from his audience. From song to song, people jumped, yelled, screamed and rapped along with him. Near the end of the show, .Paak had one last request. He wanted every single person, with no exceptions, to dance like it was their last day on Earth. Getting the audience to sing back to him, .Paak performed the chorus of “Luh You” on a loop so people would eventually pick up on everything. The result was a massive crowd throwing their arms in the air together enjoying the moment just like .Paak wanted. As Freakfest drew to a close, people were drained of energy. Madison’s finest showed up, gave their all and landed a major success while Anderson .Paak’s performance may go down as one of the most lively shows at Freakfest to date.

HALLOWEEN VIEWINGS for a SPOOKY NIGHT

New ‘Ouija: Origin of Evil’ film looks to redeem original 2014 sluggish qualities Halloween would be incomplete without a few scary movies to indulge in. It seems that director Mike Flanagan may be a decent option with his horror film “Ouija: Origin of Evil,” which hit theaters just in time for Halloween and is garnering some positive buzz. However, before there was “Origin of Evil,” there was the original “Ouija,” a film not so well received—and for good reason. With a messy plot and rare moments of actual freight, “Ouija” is a lackluster picture that I struggle to even

heading off to Point Cinema to see “Ouija: Origin of Evil.” “Origin of Evil” is a prequel to the 2014 film directed by Stiles White. The plot centers around a girl who dies in her house after playing with a Ouija board. Her friends must piece together the circumstances surrounding her death, which involves playing with the board themselves and contending with the spirits that may have killed their friend. There are certain parts of the film that I appreciate, primarily its cinematography and lighting. The noticeable use of a longer camera lens makes for some visually pleasing close-ups of the settings and characters, and the way the filmmakers play with light while the friends play Ouija at night inside versus being outside during the day is a nice contrast.

haunting the characters are actually the former residents of her friend’s house. This family, the Zanders, used to play with the board and communicate with spirits. “Origin of Evil” depicts what happened during that time and how the family became entangled with these dark forces of the game, which could work as a film if the story is executed well. However, these elements are really the only compelling parts of the original film. The 2014 film’s pacing is sluggish; it isn’t until a third of the way into the movie that the group of friends start playing with the board. And even then, there is maybe one “jump scare” that did nothing for me. The plot points throughout this film just don’t connect well. Even the plot point about the Zander family feels shoehorned in because nothing leading up to this moment prepares the story for that reveal. On top of that, the acting feels forced. The only person who seems to be trying in this film is Olivia Cooke, who plays Laine. I liked the actress in the TV series “Bates Motel,” which was really the only draw for me coming into “Ouija.” The supporting cast members are amateur at best and over-exaggerate most of their dialogue and actions, which made me care very little

for the characters and what happens to them in the film. Although “Ouija” is the first film in this franchise, it is not necessary to see this film before watching “Origin of Evil.” It may provide a little bit of context regarding the Zander family, but other than that, it does very little to set up the mythology of its narrative. When looking for something scary to watch on Halloween, I would advise picking another film or driving out to see “Ouija: Origin of Evil,” in theaters, which hopefully can redeem the missteps of “Ouija.” Are you excited for the new spooky film that’s hit theaters?

British series ‘Black Mirror’ spins heads for spooky fun Golden Age

By Ben Golden FILM COLUMNIST

This year Halloween falls on a Monday. We had the weekend to party, so tonight can be another Halloween tradition–watching a scary TV show while burrowing into the couch and stress-eating candy in suspense. Although it can be fun to stay in with some horror classics, I’d like to offer a more unconventional alternative: a thriller in which technology is the meddling shadow hiding behind the curtain. “Black Mirror,” the UK’s modern spin on “The Twilight Zone,” just released a third season through Netflix on Oct. 21. The anthology series features stand-alone cautionary episodes presenting different hypothetical futures, based on the growing

expanse of technological influence. Each episode is a new story that takes an element of our increasingly digital-dependent society and pushes it a step further, often prophesying a chilling yet not-so-distant future. When I first discovered “Black Mirror” on Netflix a couple years ago, I was immediately drawn by its wacky abrasiveness and bold satirization of our society. Within an hour each episode holds so much to ponder on the strange world we live in and what it may become. Netflix buying the series feels almost too appropriate. An initial teaser of the new season shows a glowing Netflix logo branded on someone’s neck, ironically signifying that the company is a massive influence on our digital society and often a narrative inspiration for the series. Season three is just as much of a doozy as its predecessors, offering six new episodes packed with chilling prospective scenarios to binge-watch and think about our own black mirrors. As with any anthology series,

some episodes resonated with me more than others. The first episode, “Nosedive,” is one of this season’s strongest. The episode takes the idea of social media “likes” that evolve into five-star ratings to cement societal status to an extreme level. Bryce Dallas Howard plays the bubbly and manic Lacey, a person desperate to boost her rating. Every outward smile painted on her face can make or break her reputation, career and social standing. The outwardly picturesque, pastel world is truly a cutthroat popularity contest in disguise, mimicking our Instagram feeds. “Playtest,” this season’s most frightening episode, tracks a man who tests a virtual reality horror video game that mines the player’s own personal fears for its scares. The result is an experience that is a bit too immersive. “San Junipero,” the most beautiful and poignant episode of the entire series, is a love story set in a dreamy eighties parallel universe. It is a rare “Black Mirror” story that is not cautionary, but appreciative of

technology, showing the potential beauty and wonder that can come from its endless potential. Polished with breathtaking cinematography and incredibly moving acting performances, it is from start to finish my most moving hour of television. “San Junipero” does what so many series strive for, but rarely fully achieve: present a high-concept narrative that preserves a grounded and deeply personal core. Our world is filled with so many changing, bizarre innovations that were once thought of as outlandish. With our constant digital evolution, it is impossible to know the direction our future is heading in. Halloween is a time to frighten one another with mythical monsters and scary stories, yet “Black Mirror” finds a new disturbance: the future of humanity when our love of technology evolves for the worse. The title “Black Mirror” itself carries with it a metaphor that is just as unnerving as it is intriguing; we are constantly staring into a screen, but what does

this reveal about mortality once the screen stops glowing and only our vacant expressions reflected in the black glass remain? Serial killers and ghosts are creepy and all, but for a true Halloween fright, look in the mirror—or more specifically, your smartphone.

Be wary of racially insensitive costumes SAMANTHA WILCOX opinion columnist

IMAGE COURTESY OF CREATIVE COMMONS-GAGE SKIDMORE

While this year’s election has focused on substance, the presidential candidates’ personal lives have also been heavily scrutinized.

Read carefully on the personal issues of political candidates HAE RIN LEE opinion columnist

s the the presidential election draws closer, many of us await the future with great anticipation. All of us seek a better future regardless of how different our anticipated paths may be, and thus the presidential election holds the attention of many as it plays a determining role in the policies that affect our lives. There are many ways to access information on politics these days to help determine which candidate to vote for, and it has never before been so easy to acquire such knowledge with the power of the internet, social media, television and the radio. Not surprisingly, as our network of information has grown, so has the range of the knowledge we are presented with—from petty personal blogs and comments to extensive records of the candidates’ lives. This trend begs several questions: What topics should we focus on, and how well should we know them? Just like how we start studying for the exam by selecting which sets of topics will be covered from the lessons, studying politics also requires diligence and selecting the most relevant information. Because we have so many sources of information these days presented in many different ways, it has become important for us to develop skills to select which topics are the most important. But it is also difficult to develop a standard to determine what to remember and what to forget, as everyone has different backgrounds and interests they wish to focus on. Even with these difficulties, I still believe it is a good idea to at least talk about how we should handle this mass of information regarding the political process, as it helps to work towards a general solution. How much should we know, whether personal or political?

Until recently I have believed that personal stories and issues may not be the most vital tool in determining the viability of certain candidates in running the country. But after learning about the recent presidential scandal in South Korea, I realized that sometimes the personal stories of leaders can have an impact on their ability to govern. According to a recent CNBC report Oct. 27, President Park revealed in a televised apology that she received help on state affairs from an old friend and informal advisor named Choi Soon-sil. It is still a developing story, but Ms. Choi is mainly accused of having access to classified material related to national security and conomic policies, and of interfering in key governmental affairs by establishing two nonprofit foundations using funds from corporate donations. Many South Korean citizens are petitioning for impeachment, criticizing the president’s lack of consideration of classified information, and it has caused for a growing distrust of the government. Not only that, it is reported that the confusion and shock caused by “Choi-gate” could delay the National Assembly’s passage of the 2017 budget and have an impact on the economic progress of the nation. I am aware that not all countries share similar stories of how the personal histories and lives of leaders can impact the welfare of the nation, but I believe it is quite important to know as many details about candidates as possible. However, we should narrow down what information is the most important and pertinent. All personal and public histories of the candidates should be related to the welfare of the nation more than anything else. We should not be distracted by unnecessarily petty personal

stories, but focus on the things that could determine the qualities of our lives. You might need to learn about the personal histories of the candidates who you will cast your vote for as long as they could be related to governmental policies. The Clinton email problem? The Trump tax scandal or sexual misconduct from the past? The first could impact how the new government would handle classified information and the latter could foresee how the future cabinet would handle policies related to economic inequality or women. Make yourself as aware as possible about how these issues could influence our lives.

Sometimes the personal stories of leaders can have an impact on their ability to govern.

Although government officials and candidates are often held in check by media outlets, we realize that we don’t always get all the details of everything going on in Washington. We might get some glimpse of certain things from public legislation, governmental information posts and media outlets—but not all. As important as confidentiality can be, our right to know as much as possible also needs to be protected. We need to decide for ourselves which candidate would perform best. In order to make such a determination, we also should learn as much as possible about the qualifications of these individuals. For example, if Candidate A had been a fervent supporter of a previously controversial idea and later switched to a

more moderate belief, then you should decide for yourself how to interpret this change. Was there an actual change of heart, or was it simply made to appeal to the general populace? We often see changes from one position to another as a sign of a lack of credibility of the candidate on the issue—however, should we see it only in that way? We are looking for the candidate who can do the job and has worked hard to serve all Americans. As long as our leadership is taking us in the right direction, very little else matters. That’s why we need to know as much as possible about politics—because if we only look at one side of the story, we may miss out on a leader who can help the country realize its full potential. As we all know, the upcoming presidential election is vital to continuing the legacy of our nation. I believe it’s equally significant for us to have a moment to discover how to make a good political choice. When all is said and done, we should try our very best to try to pick a candidate who will serve our personal and communal interests. In order to do so, we need to refine the skills we need to learn more deeply and effectively about the qualifications of the candidates—whether they’re really a good fit to run our great country. So as we now benefit from an abundance of information, let’s make good use of it to build towards an ideal future. Let’s not let the massive amount of information available to us cloud our will to make this country a better place to live. Hae Rin is a junior majoring in history.

he madness that is “Halloweekend” in Madison has passed. State Street is alive again post-Freakfest, and college students are waking up with buzzed and foggy memories of what happened last night. Madison is famous for its ghoulish party scene every Halloween, with people from around the Midwest making the pilgrimage to experience the weekend. As many of us know, no Halloween party is complete without a great costume. While many go for the tried-and-true sexy black cat, sailor or police officer, some choose to be more creative with costume ideas. But creative can very easily turn into offensive. Cultural appropriation is a serious issue year-round, but it is highlighted especially during Halloween season. The line between being imaginative and offensive can become blurred—a costume is something that is fictional and not to be taken seriously, right? However, this special leeway does not greenlight costumes that enforce negative stereotypes or foster an environment of hate towards any group. While it may be a cute couples costume to go as Pocahontas and John Smith, it is actually belittling Native American culture. These costumes are often not accurate representations of a culture, but rather sweeping generalizations that have been spread through media. Continuing with the example of Pocahontas and Native American culture, Pocahontas is not an accurate portrayal of women across tribes. While many of us today consider Pocahontas to be an iconic Native American woman, her image and story have been crafted for mainstream consumption by making her life into that of a princess, instead of telling the true trials and tribulations she lived through. This same cultural appropriation in costuming is seen in more modern pop culture examples. African-American culture is deeply entwined within the greater American culture. However, that does not make it okay for people who are not African-American to dress like those who are. Blackface, stereotyped ghetto outfits and more proliferate racist attitudes towards the African-American community. Not all African-Americans are rappers or thugs; just look at our current president. While the Halloweekend madness has died down, the holiday is not yet over. When thinking about what you’re going to do or be for the final hours of Halloween, keep in mind that someone’s culture is not a costume. Generalizations found in such costumes are offensive and degrading to a culture, often proliferating negative stereotypes that are simply untrue and racist. This is an ideal to follow not only as the holiday festivities move forward, but throughout our daily lives. Samantha is a sophomore majoring in journalism and communication arts.

Opinions should not be mistaken for facts THOMAS RADEMACHER opinion columnist

acts are reality and truth and should be the basis for all our policy decisions. A fact is something that is known to exist. In the post-fact political world we now live in, facts are spun, criticized and taken as opinions or partisan beliefs. People now only believe facts when they adhere to one of their already-held ideas. If a fact contradicts someone’s idea it is railed against as a lie, conspiracy or attempt to trick people. There is currently an ongoing crusade against experts, fact-checkers and knowledge itself. If this continues, we may end up destroying the very political system that our Founding Fathers worked so hard to build.

The only sound and successful policy decisions we make are the ones based on facts derived from reality.

We now live in a world where alternate realities are made up from thin air and opinions are misconstrued as facts. Experts and fact-checkers are a necessary component to our society and deserve respect. Disturbingly, many experts are thought of as arrogant men and women who sit in ivory towers disconnected from the real world. These perceptions are blatantly false. The work experts and fact-checkers do is grounded in reality and based on logic.

We may not want to hear what an expert or fact-checker says, but what they are trying to do is find truth. Experts are all around us. Experts are not just professors in universities who dedicate their lives to educating citizens and conducting research to find truths about the real world. Experts are the workers at our local auto shop who can fix our car when it breaks and doctors who heal us when we are sick or unwell. They are also engineers who build a better world for us, investment managers who help us make wise monetary decisions and farmers who excel at growing and cultivating the food we need to eat. Experts are all around us and our society depends on specialists of many kinds to keep us alive and functioning within our communities. Whether we like it or not, we depend on experts who know more than we do about their professions. As much as some politicians want us to believe that they can make up information whenever they want, that is not how knowledge works. Facts are not partisan nor are they opinions. Believing something does not make it true. Respected factcheckers are non-partisan individuals or organizations who seek to hold politicians accountable for the lies they tell us to win our votes. They are an essential part of a democracy to keep politicians honest. Identities as a Republican, Democrat, Libertarian or otherwise should not hold power over facts. We can only trust someone’s information when it was acquired through logical reason by sifting and winnowing to

find the truth. This is precisely what fact-checkers do. As citizens, we need to construct our realities on facts. Not opinions, beliefs or partisan ideologies. This is the only way to keep our country great.

Whether we like it or not, we depend on experts who know more than we do about their professions.

If we ridicule and refuse to listen to fact-checkers and experts, then the fabric of our democracy is at risk of coming undone. The only sound and successful policy decisions that we make are the ones based on facts derived from reality. If we base our policy decisions on made-up information we tread in dangerous waters. Our Constitution was built on facts. The Founding Fathers were men from the Enlightenment era and created the United States of America on a basis of factual knowledge, reason and logic. The Founding Fathers were not perfect men, nor were they free from error. However, they strove for the truth, something our society has somehow forgotten how to do. Thomas is a senior majoring in history and psychology. What are your views on the evolution of society’s views on facts? What steps do you think should be taken to reinstitute a focus on facts and confidence in experts? Please end all comments, questions and concerns to opinion@dailycardinal.com.

Trash litters the streets in the aftermath of big events like Freakfest, dirtying the pretty streets of downtown Madison.

Realities of literring sink in after rowdy Halloween weekend LILLY HANSON opinion columnist

ccording to the MerriamWebster online dictionary, Halloween is defined as “the night of October 31 when children dress up as ghosts, witches, monsters, etc., and go to houses to ask for candy.” A marginally less reliable source, Urban Dictionary, defines Halloween as an annual excuse for girls to dress promiscuously and get away with it. The idea of dressing up for Halloween has followed students from first grade, when they begged their parents to create the most original costume, to college when a group of girls put on oversized t-shirts and call it a day. While both definitions include the idea of dressing up, what isn’t mentioned is strewing the immediate surroundings with trash. While UW-Madison is famous across the country for its annual Halloween celebration starting the weekend before Halloween, what gets most overlooked are the after-effects on the campus. When googling “who picks up trash on University of Wisconsin-Madison campus?” the results give links to the City of Madison Streets & Recycling Department. But these hardworking men and women can’t be solely counted upon to clean up after the students. Beer cans, solo cups, beer bottles, liquor handles, cardboard boxes, cat ears, dirty condoms, women’s sanitary products, pizza boxes, McDonald’s takeout bags and ripped Halloween costumes— all are items I saw on the ground on my short walk from Regent Street to University Avenue. And while I understand that our school’s unofficial motto is “work hard, party harder,” I can’t help but feel like cleaning up after your party is something missing from the students’ slogan. “Halloween is a time to have fun, but you also have to be responsible about what you’re doing from

the second you pick up a cup to when you put it down,” said junior Ellie Schu. She said that if students want to have people come and visit, both students and the visitors are responsible for leaving campus clean and not leaving trash everywhere. Many of these people, however, are so busy having the time of their lives that they don’t think about the impact they’re having on the beautiful city. It’s important to keep in mind that you should be conscious of the impact of tossing your cup on the ground every weekend on campus, not just Halloween weekend. When visitors come to UW-Madison, they are shown views of one the most beautiful and iconic American college campuses. Given the traditions the campus follows every weekend, guests are given experiences that will last a lifetime. But leaving on Sunday morning, the last image they are given of our campus is one of dirty streets filled with the remnants of a party. I am not expecting students to pass around trash bags to every party guest and request them to clean the around the spot they are standing. And there is no need to set an alarm to begin the cleaning process at 6 a.m. the next morning. We’ve all been there—we’d rather have people throw their trash anywhere than litter in our apartment, but that always seems to translate to people discarding their waste outside on the streets of our campus. It’s important that the students of UW-Madison remember to be respectful to the space they are in. If we want to keep our ranking as a beautiful campus, we need to keep our party essentials in the trash, not on the ground. Lilly is a junior majoring in journalism.

3 Mines

By Paul Urbanski graphics@dailycardinal.com

The grid below is a freaking minefield. Each number is a probe that tells how many squares adjacent (vertically, horizontally or diagonally) have mines in them—but which ones? Figure out where the mines are. Remember that it is just as important to mark where there are NOT mines (with an N or an X) as it is to mark where there ARE mines (with a Y or a lovely sketch of a bomb). No square with a number has a mine in it.

Fill in the grid so that every row, every column and every 3x3 box contains the digits 1 through 9.

Badgers capture Big Ten title, one year after finishing eighth Cons Cons

ZOEI FAITH/THE DAILY CARDINAL

Senior Haleigh Nelson notched her one-thousandth career kill as the Badgers cruised past Rutgers.

ZOEI FAITH/THE DAILY CARDINAL

Senior Lauren Carlini also reached a personal milestone with her five-thousandth assist as a Badger.

Nelson, Carlini achieve career milestones in sweep of Rutgers By David Gwidt THE DAILY CARDINAL

After a statement win against Penn State Friday night, No. 4 Wisconsin (10-2 Big Ten, 18-3 overall) picked up another win Sunday afternoon, defeating Big Ten cellar-dweller Rutgers (0-12 Big Ten, 4-11) in straight sets by a score of 25-14, 25-18, 25-23 at the UW Field House. Beyond the favorable outcome on the scoreboard, this contest turned out to be a landmark occasion for a couple of Badgers, namely senior middle Haleigh Nelson and senior setter Lauren Carlini. Nelson recorded her one-thousandth career kill while Lauren Carlini added yet another accolade to her illustrious collegiate resume, registering her fivethousandth career assist. “It’s pretty cool just to be within the top of the assist leaders at Wisconsin,” Carlini said after the match. “I can’t believe I’ve already gotten here, but it’s just cool to be in that type of company. I wasn’t really excited about it in the moment because it was a close game at that time but now just looking back, that’s good company.” As heavy favorites in this match-

up, the Badgers were expected to dominate the match, and they did just that in the first set. The home team stormed out of the opening gates looking strong, jumping out to a 8-2 lead. Wisconsin seemed to only get better as the set progressed, rattling off a 5-0 run midway through the set to widen the gap and go up by 11 points. UW coasted into the second set, claiming a decisive 25-14 victory. Realizing its lacking performance in the early going needed to improve, Rutgers stepped it up a notch in the middle set, keeping pace with the Badgers. The set started well for Rutgers, as the Scarlet Knights gained an early 5-2 lead. With her team trailing by three, senior Lauren Carlini took control, recording a service ace and two kills to lead Wisconsin’s comeback charge. Tied at 13 all, the two teams traded scores for the next handful of minutes, but Carlini came up clutch yet again, breaking the tie with another ace that sparked a 4-2 Wisconsin run. Later in the set, Nelson tallied her one-thousandth kill, making the score 23-17 in favor of Wisconsin. UW would go on to secure the set 25-18. Despite dropping the first two

sets, Rutgers would refuse to go down without a fight. Just like they had in the previous set, the Scarlet Knights struck first in the third set, staking out a quick 4-2 lead. To the visiting team’s dismay, UW would battle back, as senior hitter Kelli Bates provided a gametying kill that would bring the score to 5-5. After pulling in front, Wisconsin immediately bolstered its lead, riding a 4-2 run to create some breathing room. Determined to keep it close, the Scarlet Knights soon clawed their way back, tying the score at 15. Despite Rutgers’ valiant effort, Romana Kriskova proved too much to handle down the stretch, compiling nine kills in the closing set to put the Scarlet Knights away by a score of 25-23. In addition to her immeasurable late-match impact, Kriskova finished the day with a matchhigh 18 kills on a remarkable .570 hitting percentage. “It was really fun to play in front of a sold-out Field House and it’s always fun to play with these girls,” Kriskova said. Wisconsin will travel to Columbus to play the Ohio State Buckeyes this Wednesday night. First serve is set for 7 p.m.

By Cameron Lane-Flehinger THE DAILY CARDINAL

For almost a generation, from 1999 to 2012, the Wisconsin men’s cross country teams completely dominated the Big Ten championships, winning 14 straight team titles. Indiana managed to break the streak in 2013, but the Badgers were back on top with a dominating 30-point victory the next season. In 2015 it all fell apart as Wisconsin struggled to an eighthplace finish that head coach Mick Byrne described as “unprecedented in Badger history.” Entering this year’s meet, the pressure was on the Badgers to prove that last year’s performance was simply a fluke, and not a new normal for a previously dominant program. The men’s race featured three top-20 teams, No. 14 Michigan, No. 18 Wisconsin and No. 19 Indiana. Coaches from several teams described the race as wide open. The race was slow from the gun, as many of the competitors ran conservatively on the Les Bolstad Golf Course in Falcon Heights, Minn., with a mind to the challenging terrain of the final few kilometers. A pack of Badgers, including senior Malachy Schrobilgen and freshman Olin Hacker settled in behind the leaders and stayed there for much of the race. The one team that bucked the trend was Michigan State, and almost halfway through the race the Spartans occupied the top six spots. With just over two kilometers to go, Wisconsin’s Morgan McDonald made a strong move to break away from the pack and pass MSU’s Sherod Hardt, who had been leading the race. The Spartans still looked poised for a surprise victory,

with a 58-point lead at the six kilometer mark. McDonald crossed the line to take the victory in 24:35.7, and Hardt finished second, a massive improvement from his 139thplace finish at the Nuttycombe Invitational two weeks ago. After finishing, McDonald embraced his mother, who had flown from Sydney, Australia to see her son race in America for the first time. “He’s on another level right now,” said Schrobilgen, himself a two-time Big Ten champion, to UWBadgers. com. “I think he’s really starting to hit his stride. You’re going to continue to see big things from him.” Confusion reigned at the finish line as exhausted harriers and their coaches attempted to figure out who had captured the team title. A few minutes later, the unofficial results declared Wisconsin the winner over Michigan State by a score of 66-63, the meet’s smallest margin of victory since 1999. The Badgers’ victory was provided by the strong performances of their second- and thirdplace runners, Schrobilgen and Hacker, who finished 5th and 12th respectively. “What a lot of people didn’t see out there today was what Malachy did to the team. He sacrificed a little bit of his own personal goals for the team,” said Byrne to UWBadgers.com. “He was the guy who kept the group together for the first 6K…It’s that type of unselfishness that wins championships.” With the win, the Badgers gain valuable momentum and confidence that should help them as they head into their final home meet of the season, the Great Lakes Regional on Nov. 11, from which the top two teams automatically qualify for the National Championship Nov.19.

No. 24 Wisconsin survives late flurry to defeat Buckeyes 2-1 on Senior Day Badgers will have a rematch with Ohio State in quarterfinals of Big Ten Tournament Sunday By Jake Nisse THE DAILY CARDINAL

The Wisconsin (10-3-3 overall, 4-2-2 Big Ten) men’s soccer team defeated Ohio State (5-12-1 overall, 3-4-1 Big Ten) 2-1 Sunday, capping off its regular season with a successful Senior Day. Casey Beyers, Brian Hail and Matej Radonic were all honored before the game for their contributions to the program, and the Badgers kept up the good spirits with their performance. Wisconsin dominated proceedings in the first half, amassing 15 shots and largely controlling the possession and flow of the game. Wisconsin opened up the scoring inside the 16th minute, as junior defender Enda O’Neill notched his first goal of the season after bundling home a loose ball in the box. Following the junior’s strike, the Badgers saw a lot of the ball, but were unable to get close to the Ohio State goal and create truly dangerous chances. Wisconsin was shooting frequently, but not accurately, and not from high-percentage positions. However, Wisconsin kicked into something of another gear

with about five minutes left in the half. After taking three straight corner kicks, junior forward Christopher Mueller led a Badgers counterattack into Ohio State territory, before shooting and forcing Ohio State goalkeeper Siegfried Parker into a save. The ball then fell fortuitously to forward Isaac Schlenker, who was able to fire into the far post for his first goal of the season. “I felt like I was gonna score for probably the past five or six games, and it just hasn’t come,” Schlenker said. “The fact that a rebound came my way for once, you know, I took the opportunity, and it’s just a great feeling.” The Badgers were a little less enterprising offensively in the second half, only posting four shots and largely focusing on seeing out the game. While this type of pragmatism is typical of John Trask’s team, it was made even more necessary by Mike Catalano’s red card inside the 64th minute. Coach Trask urged his team to make better decisions in light of Catalano’s second yellow, which will cause him to miss the first game of the Big Ten soccer championship.

“We’ve got to’ be smarter in moments when we’re up to 2-0 and sitting on a yellow card,” Trask said. “We exposed ourselves and that’s the ramification of it. It’s unfortunate.” Catalano’s red card set up a somewhat nerve-wracking finish for the Badgers, who conceded twelve shots in the second half and allowed Ohio State’s Yaw Amankwa to score inside the 86th minute. Still, the Badgers were deserving of the win and able to hold onto to the victory, much to the delight of Schlenker. “That was probably the longest half of my life,” Schlenker said. “Definitely very stressful. You know we worked hard, we battled, and that’s why we made it through.” The Badgers will take on Ohio State again next Sunday as the Big Ten soccer championship kicks off in Indianapolis next weekend. After combining for just eight wins in the previous two seasons, the No. 24 Badgers have 10 this year, with expectations for the squad presumably raised. They will hope to be far more than just visitors in Indianapolis.

KATIE SCHEIDT/THE DAILY CARDINAL

Hornibrook (top) and Houston (bottom), now switch off under center.

There is quite a bit to unpack from Wisconsin’s thrilling overtime victory against No. 7 Nebraska this past Saturday. For starters, a lot of credit has to be given to Mike Riley and the Cornhuskers for how well they battled back in that game. Since Nebraska joined the Big Ten back in 2011, the Huskers and the Badgers have had several high-profile meetings. More times than not, those meetings have resulted in Nebraska being embarrassed by Wisconsin on national television. But that was not the case Saturday night. When the Badgers opened up the second half with a lengthy scoring drive to grab a 17-7 lead, it was possible that they could have broken the game open and cruised to a win by a comfortable margin. Under former Cornhuskers coach Bo Pelini, big games like this were where his teams consistently seemed to fall flat on their face. The Huskers may have not moved to 8-0, but they made an admirable comeback attempt to force overtime and could’ve easily won that game. If the refs had called a blatant pass interference by T.J. Watt on the penultimate play of the game, that very well could have happened. And despite the loss, the Cornhuskers could still earn a spot in the Big Ten Championship Game by win-

ning out, though they will need to beat Ohio State on the road next Saturday for that to happen. Riley has the program pointed in the right direction and it’s safe to say that this budding rivalry between Wisconsin and Nebraska will have major Big Ten West implications every time the teams meet for the foreseeable future. As for Wisconsin, its hopes of making it back to Indianapolis stay alive thanks to the dramatic victory. However, Paul Chryst has managed to concoct a quarterback controversy practically out of thin air. For whatever reason, Chryst and his coaching staff have decided that it is a good idea to randomly pepper Bart Houston into games. The two-quarterback system didn’t have any real ill effects against Iowa, but it almost cost the Badgers dearly Saturday night. After Hornibrook threw an egregious interception in the second half, Chryst sent Houston out on the next drive, who promptly did the same thing. This left Chryst in a bit of a dilemma of who to go with for the rest of the game, and he ended up just sticking with Houston the rest of the way. The Badgers have now gone 2-0 since they’ve implemented this two-quarterback system, but they’re winning in spite of it, not because of it. When Houston struggled early in the season, Chryst did the right thing and made

Hornibrook the starter. That was a smart decision that he deserved credit for because there are plenty of coaches who would’ve stuck with Houston until Wisconsin lost a game or two before making a move. Chryst erred on the side of being proactive rather than reactive. However, he needs to embrace that decision and let Hornibrook get these valuable reps. Hornibrook is going to make mistakes, throw bad interceptions and go through all the other growing pains that nearly all young quarterbacks endure. It’s important to remember that he’s still only made a grand total of five collegiate starts. But Hornibrook is, in all likelihood, the quarterback of the future for this program. He needs these in-game reps to work through the growing pains and help him develop. It has to be hard to get in a rhythm under center when you’re being pulled out of the game at random points. It’s inexplicable that Chryst would go with this twoquarterback system seemingly out of nowhere. Unfortunately, it’s doubtful that he’ll give up on it any time soon. Next up for the Badgers is a road trip to take on Northwestern at Ryan Field, a place where they haven’t won since Ron Dayne was their running back. Wisconsin playing in the Mystical Realm of Evanston while employing an ill-conceived two-quarterback system—what could possibly go wrong?
