Discussion continues on new diversity plan By Cheyenne Langkamp The Daily Cardinal
Members of the University of Wisconsin-Madison campus met Wednesday to begin discussing the university’s next strategic diversity plan to improve campus climate, which must be drafted by April 1, 2013. The Campus Diversity and Climate Committee, a shared governance committee consisting of faculty, staff and students that advise administration on diversity policy and planning, addressed the creation of a special ad hoc committee to draft the new diversity proposal. CDCC Co-Chair Marlys Macken, professor of linguistics, said the process needs to be tighter and more effective than the creation of the last diversity plan, which expired in 2008. “This is a wonderful opportunity for all of us to do something important, but it’s a very short timeline,” Macken said. Macken said ideally the ad hoc
committee will consist of representatives who are passionate and have the necessary background in diversity to understand current campus issues. CDCC student representative Britt Moes said she would like to see a broader definition of diversity encompassed in the new plan, such as taking into consideration people with disabilities and different religious affiliations. Faculty, staff and student representatives on the CDCC also sparred over the specific size and makeup of the ad hoc committee. CDCC members debated the proper proportions for representation on the committee. Members first called for an 18-member committee that would be split equally between faculty, staff and students, but eventually agreed on a 20-member committee with eight seats for students and 12 seats for university employees to be

Ward says university is not taking action on Palermo’s By Sam Cusick The Daily Cardinal
Interim Chancellor David Ward released a statement Wednesday stating the University of WisconsinMadison will review its contracts with Palermo’s Pizza following a request by a university committee to cut ties with the pizza company. The Labor Licensing Policy Committee sent a letter to Ward Wednesday urging him to cut ties with Palermo’s Pizza after
workers went on strike following allegations of unfair labor practices and prohibiting employees from creating a union. In the statement, Ward said he will review the committee’s request to cut ties, but the university currently has no plans to take action. Ward said while certain parties within the university, including the athletic department and the Wisconsin Union, have sponsorship agreements

Madison’s Common Council approved the 2013 Operating Budget, which will grant the Overture Center for the Arts $1.75 million and will keep bus fares at the same rate.
City Council approves 2013 Operating Budget By Abby Becker The Daily Cardinal
Madison’s Common Council approved the $267.1 million 2013 Operating Budget, which grants the Overture Center for the Arts $1.75 million in city funds and does not raise bus fares. Before Council voted on the overall budget, members approved in a 16-4 vote a set of amendments, introduced by Council President Shiva Bidar-Sielaff and President Pro Tem Chris Schmidt. Included in the Council Leadership package is an amendment which grants an additional $900,000 to what was originally designated to Overture, for a total of $1.75 million. Ald. Mike Verveer, District 4, who also serves as an Overture Center Foundation board member, said he is “thrilled” with the city’s
“renewed financial commitment for the Overture Center.” Soglin’s set of separate bundled amendments would have granted $1.35 million to Overture, with $850,000 of the funding contingent on other sources. The city is also using $91 million in borrowed funds for 2013, which is a decrease from past years, according to Verveer. But Soglin said he is concerned with the city’s use of premium and borrowed funds. “We can’t do everything for everyone,” Soglin said. “I’m fearful we don’t have our priorities straight.” One of the issues with Overture funding, according to Soglin, is the lack of transparency with how the arts center will use city funding. Other groups the city funds, such as Mentoring Positives, a mentoring program in Dane
County, provide their full budget, “and the [city knows] what every cent goes for,” Soglin said. While the city granted Overture $1.75 million, Ald. Matthew Phair, District 20, said debating funding for the arts center each year is “ridiculous.” “Doing this every year is not sustainable for the staff of Overture,” Phair said. “I don’t feel like they should come and beg for money each year.” Council members also approved an amendment which will keep the adult cash bus fare rate at $2.00 for 2013. If bus fares had been increased for 2013, the price for student bus passes, provided by segregated fees through a contract between the Associated Students of Madison and Metro Transit, would have increased when the university’s contracts expire.
Law enforcement union files challenge against Act 10 By Jack Casey The Daily Cardinal

A state law enforcement union filed a lawsuit Tuesday hoping to extend recent success challenging the constitutionality of the controversial Act 10 legislation, which limited state workers’ collective bargaining rights. The Wisconsin Law Enforcement Association, which filed the lawsuit in the Dane County Circuit Court Tuesday, represents police officers around the state including members of the
University of Wisconsin-Madison and Capitol Police. The WLEA lawsuit is similar to the one decided Sept. 12 by Dane County Circuit Court Judge Juan Colas, which dealt only with municipal workers. Colas ruled certain portions of Act 10, including its prohibition of collective bargaining, unconstitutional because he said it violated municipal workers’ rights to free speech, association and equal protection. Wisconsin Attorney General J.B. Van Hollen, has since appealed
the September decision to the Wisconsin Court of Appeals. Although the Tuesday suit, like the previous lawsuit, was filed in the Dane County Circuit Court, it is unknown whether Colas will also decide the WLEA case. In a Tuesday statement, the WLEA said the lawsuit was filed to regain bargaining rights for “hard working state employees,” including law enforcement officers. “[Act 10] fractured the [law

Great Dane looks to future
An independent student newspaper, serving the University of Wisconsin-Madison community since 1892

hen the Great Dane Pub & Brewery opened in 1994, there were fewer than 600 craft brewers in the country. The notion of craft beer simply did not exist for the vast majority of beer drinkers, with macrobrew light lagers blanketing the entire industry. However, in the mid ’90s, a small group of passionate brewers began to stubbornly chip away at the foregone conclusion that all beer should taste the same. Entering such a small, ignored and realistically insignificant fraction of the American beer industry during such a time was a gigantic risk. However, 18 years, five brewpubs and countless gallons of beer sold later, the Great Dane appears more successful than ever. And though the days of the pub’s youth will stand in craft beer history forever as a time of astounding progress, the brewers at the Great Dane seem to think that an even greater revolution is yet to come. “We could be on the cusp,” Great Dane brewer Michael Fay explained over a scattered array of beer samples. “I see it changing more in the next few years. Young people today are young
enough that they wouldn’t even remember the pre-craft beer revolution. To them, this is just

what beer is. It’s a great point, and one that becomes evident when discussing craft beer with University of WisconsinMadison students. Yes we drink Keystone and Natty, but I can’t name one student I’ve met who truly believes that the fizzy corn-water they’re shotgunning is actually good beer. Though it may seem like a small hurdle to overcome, the generations of Budweiser and Miller are only now beginning to learn this notion. Emphasizing this point, Fay noted that he’ll still witness customers order their beers with ice, an act that will not only keep the brew from reaching its warmer ideal drinking temperature, but also dilute the beer to a disgusting watery mess. However, with an older generation of beer drinkers that is slowly beginning to learn and appreciate good beer, and an enthusiastic student crowd, the future seems promising for local brewpubs like the Great Dane. It certainly also helps
that they brew great beer. As the Madison winter creeps up on us, I would recommend trying some of the brewpub’s heavier and maltier brews. The Black Watch Scotch Ale is a fantastic creamy beer that uses Scottish peated malt for an authentic smoky flavor. It’s one of two cask-conditioned ales at the pub, a traditional English style of serving beer at warmer temperatures, with the only source of carbonation coming naturally from fermentation. The result is a unique mouthfeel, often with better flavor retention.
As the Madison winter creeps up on us, I would recommend trying some of the brewpub’s heavier and maltier brews.
If you want something even darker, the Black Earth Porter is one of the best takes on the style you’ll find in Madison. There’s lots of tangy malts, chocolate, oats/grain and a significant hop finish. I would also recommend the ESB (English Style Bitter): another cask-conditioned ale that is dry-hopped with whole hops rather than pellets like the rest of the Great Dane’s beers. Finally, watch out for the winter seasonal Imperial Porter to make its debut soon. However, with the evergrowing craft-beer market, and
the potential for an explosion of interest amongst students and post-graduates, I asked Fay what the future held for the successful chain of brewpubs. The answer may surprise you in its ambition, as the Great Dane has just begun bottling a series of specialty seasonal beers to be sold outside the pub. The first of this series, released in August but still available at Riley’s Wines of the World, is its Imperial Red Ale. Though Fay did not want to reveal the next beer in the series, he informed me that they do expect to release approximately four beers a year, with the potential for more production if sales prove strong. Considering the quality of its beers, I would love to see a consistent flow of bold, strong and experimental brews reach liquor stores in the Madison area. Though the Great Dane’s bottling plans will remain modest until they can be proven profitable, the fact that the microbrewery is investigating a wider means of dispersal, after 18 years of experience, says a lot. Who knows? If Fay is right about the possibility of another giant leap forward in the craft beer movement, our favorite local brewpub might be aptly positioned to do the same.

A hater’s guide to the coming holiday season Adam wolf howlin’ mad
W
ith the holiday season finally upon us, there’s a lot worth getting excited about. Over the next two months, you’ll be able to feast like a king, receive gifts on SOME OTHER DUDE’S birthday, and spend time with your loving family. It’s truly a blessed time. But alas, as with many good things in life, there’s a trade-off with holidays that can make them a major pain in the ass. Bearing this in mind, I present to you my Hater’s Guide to the Holidays (abridged version). Interacting with family I have a total of 19 aunts and uncles, and none of them or their spouses went to college, so I totally look down on them. Of course, this is an unfair thing for me to do, but it makes me feel superior, and that’s a good feeling to have. My usual move is to exchange pleasantries early on at the family gathering and then stake my claim to a rocking chair in close proximity to the TV, closing off all avenues of conversation. You never want to sit on a couch because it invites someone in your family to sit down next to you and make terrible
small talk. If you’re trying to kill time, I recommend multiple trips and extended stays in the bathroom, even if you don’t have to go—it’s worth the seclusion from everybody. And if you smoke cigarettes, I envy you. You can easily buy yourself an hour outside away from your family in that case.
You never want to sit on the couch because it invites someone in your family to sit down next to you and make terrible small talk.
Presents I get $20 from my grandparents on my mom’s side every year, which is nice because hardly any of the actual gifts I ever receive from my dad’s side are useful. Yes, I know it’s “the thought that counts,” but good lord are my Grandma Wolf ’s “thoughts” bloody awful most of the time. I remember one Christmas where my grandma gave me a knockoff-brand Incredible Hulk action figure as a gift. I was 15. Feasting The unabashed gluttony is my favorite part of the holidays, but after a roughly twomonth food bender, I’m basically hemorrhaging gravy and feeling like a sack of shit.
Unfortunately, you can’t burn off the added weight very easily because Wisconsin turns into a goddamn icebox, killing your desire to exercise outdoors. And thanks to the large contingent of New Year’s Resoluters that intend to create healthy habits for 2013 before giving up three weeks later, you will need a reservation if you want to hop on the elliptical at the SERF. By the time the weather warms and the gym crowds thin out, you’ll have accepted the fact your body contains the small child you consumed over the holidays. TV Specials How some of these holiday specials have entered the pantheon of “timeless family treasures” is beyond me. Charlie Brown is clearly clinically depressed and abused by his supposed friends, but yes, let’s continue to subject our nation’s children to his misery. The Grinch deliberately harasses people, breaks into several homes and steals thousands of dollars of merchandise; yet he hears all of Whoville singing, and all of a sudden he’s not a dick? TOTAL PLOT HOLE. Oh, and SPOILER ALERT!— Ralphie does end up getting his Red Ryder BB Gun after all. Sorry about that, but I figured you already saw the ending the first 37 times TBS aired the film Christmas Day.
Santa Claus I never understood why parents had to go along with the illusion that Santa is real. Why can’t parents just tell the truth about Santa from the beginning and spare their children the inevitable crying fit that results? I know that when I was 8, I could care less if my Gameboy came from my parents or minimumwage elf labor, just as long as I had it in my possession. Decorations Every year, my poor dad is forced to risk injury by hanging up Christmas lights outside the house with only his crappy ladder saving him from breaking his spine. For all his labor, he’s rewarded with a jacked-up energy bill and the privilege of seeing his modest display overshadowed by just about everybody else’s in the neighborhood. And memo to Mom: Your Christmas tree accomplishes nothing besides getting in the way of the TV when I’m using it to ignore the relatives. Happy holidays to you and yours!

Third ASM forum addresses advising, academic issues By Cheyenne Langkamp The Daily Cardinal
Wednesday’s Associated Students of Madison Shared Governance Week of Action forum facilitated a discussion between students and campus leaders on academic issues such as advising and Educational Innovation. The forum’s panel featured Wren Singer, campus advising director; Chris Olsen, Interim Vice Provost for Teaching and Learning; and Elaine Klein, Assistant Dean for Academic Planning in the College of Letters and Sciences. Singer said she is currently focused on improving advising training and student accessibility to advising, as well as streamlining the technology used in course planning.
Grace Bolt, a UW-Madison sophomore and ASM Assistant Press Office Director, said her advising experience was disappointing and felt advisers need to better facilitate discussions with students who seek their assistance. “I’m going to advising to get advice and I’m not getting it,” Bolt said. Singer said she is looking to incorporate better training for advisors on how to engage students in discussion, but also encouraged students to take more initiative. “Students need to increasingly understand that advising is not going to tell them what to do and we’re not doing that because we don’t know,” Singer said. “We’re not doing it because one of the things students need to learn is how
to make decisions.” Klein and Olsen discussed Education Innovation, a strategy emphasized by Chancellor David Ward, which strives to improve teaching and learning through the use of new technologies, such as online classes, as monetary resources become increasingly scarce in higher education. Ronald Crandall, an ASM Student Council representative, asked how the university is working to garner the campus support behind these new strategies. Olsen said the university is trying to show a sense of urgency around the change, as well as finding faculty and staff who are willing to be the first to adopt the innovative strategies and serve as models for the rest of campus.
Developers to break ground on Edgewater renovations Developers of the Edgewater Hotel will break ground on a $98 million renovation project Thursday. The project includes constructing a new addition to the west side of the building, an outdoor stairway leading to the lakefront and a public plaza space outside the hotel, according to Ald. Bridget
Maniaci, District 2. Additionally, the building will include a new coffee shop and restaurant as well as condominiums on the top floor. Maniaci said the project is a valuable asset for the city, in particular by bringing more hotel rooms to the downtown area. “This project is a defining feature of the downtown,” she
said. “It will support the university and their efforts to have a competitive…community surrounding them.” Developers anticipate opening the renovated building in summer 2014, Maniaci said. The groundbreaking will take place at the Edgewater Hotel at 10 a.m. Thursday.

response to the issue, since no plan of action was discussed or put into place to help the workers on strike. “It’s nice to see in the statement [Ward] is acknowledging that this is a concern and laying out the facts so that people know what are the details of the contract,” Kong said. “However, there are no concrete steps being taken yet so that’s disappointing.”
Kong also said SLAC will continue to raise student awareness on the issue and to pressure the university to cut ties, naming the end of the semester as an ideal deadline. “This issue [was] brought to Chancellor Ward’s attention at the beginning of the school year so I’m disappointed that he still hasn’t come up with a plan of action,” Kong said.

The Associated Students of Madison University Affairs Committee held a meeting Wednesday to discuss campus safety and a new campaign focused on improving to cell phone reception on campus. ASM Student Council Freshman Representative Callen Raveret said the committee is taking on the Cell Phone campaign because it will impact every student on campus. “A cell phone is probably the biggest tool for communication with people,” Raveret said. “And if you have communication you’re safe.” According to ASM Press Officer David Gardner, phase one of the plan, which was undertaken by the university this year, increased all around street level reception. Gardner said students on this campaign will lobby for a phase two, which would look to expand service in campus buildings that

were built in a way that hinders clear cell phone transmission. Gardner said two buildings students will focus on are Camp Randall and the Student Activity Center, which are known to have poor cell phone service. ASM Assistant Press Office Director Courtney Jackson said cell phone reception is incredibly relevant to increasing safety on campus, an umbrella campaign of ASM as a whole this semester. “ASM sees the lack of significant cell phone reception on campus as a serious issue,” Jackson said. “The Cell Phone campaign is a promising effort to solve this problem and will allow ASM to continue to serve students.” Raveret said the next step is to increase student awareness and to receive input about specific problem areas on campus. The committee will provide further updates on the campaign at its meeting on Nov. 28th. “Students have been really pounding for this for last couple of years,” Williams said. “And finally we have student leaders that have been very well trained and that are ready to be involved at a high level.” Upon calling to question the 20-member committee, Mackens realized the committee did not have the required amount of voting members present to take an official vote. The CDCC will meet again Monday to take a formal vote on the proposed structure of the special ad hoc committee.
ASM forms new committee to advise creation of diversity plan The Associated Students of Madison Student Council approved the creation of a special, temporary student committee to increase student participation on the drafting of a new campus diversity plan Wednesday. The ad hoc committee was proposed as a means for students to directly work with the Campus Diversity and Climate Committee ad hoc committee that is charged with creating the university’s next strategic diversity plan. ASM Diversity Committee Chair Mia Akers said the student committee will add more student voice in the planning process.
“The committee will offer a more holistic and active role for students in the creation of this plan and altogether will increase the quality of it,” Akers said. The committee will consist of twelve students: four student appointees who sit on the CDCC, four representatives from the ASM Student Council and four students who Akers will appoint. Council appointed ASM Chair Andrew Bulovsky, Devon Hamilton and Nico Magallon to the student ad hoc committee, and will appoint an additional council representative in its next meeting.

When low on money, get creative with your filmmaking methodology Austin WEllens all’s well-ens well
S
o, every week this semester I’ve used this column to write about movies and I’m going to do the same thing this week. If that surprises you, you’re reading the wrong column. However, up until this week, I’ve written about the finished products, the films as they are when they reach the big screen. Prepare yourselves for something slightly different. Now, some of you may be sitting out there scratching your heads and saying to yourselves, “Man, movies are cool and all, but how do they get made? How do they do those ridiculous things they do onscreen? How does somebody even begin to start making them, and where can they learn how?” Or maybe you’re sitting there wondering if I’m ever going to shut up about movies; I don’t really know. Either way, there’s an answer to your question.
The DIY movie industry is probably the best thing to happen to film in a long time.
If you’re in the second group, then the answer is no, no I’m not. Sorry, but I’m a film columnist, and it’s my job. If you’re in the first group, keep reading. Whether you merely have a personal interest in movies or are looking at a potential career in making them, I’ve got some knowledge for you here. As for how to get into the actual industry, it’s pretty simple. All you have to do is already have an established body of work you can use on your resume and already know a bunch of higher ups and powerful types in Hollywood who will give you a leg up. Easy. Of course, if you want to go a more boring, “realistic” route, your best bet is to get as much work as you can on any indie film shoot you find, make friends in the industry and gain experience. I’m in the process of that right now, and it’s essentially a perpetual internship. With 15-hour days. It’s pretty awesome. Getting experience is only the first part of the process though. Beyond that, you need to be able to actually produce a decent film, assuming you eventually get the opportunity to do so. Now, a lot of people eventually give up on the whole “interning your way to a major
studio and praying that somebody decides to just give you a chance to make your own movie” system. But it’s these ambitious individuals that produced the independent movie scene for us. The DIY movie industry is probably the best thing to happen to film in a long time. It has allowed filmmakers to break conventions, to be experimental and to establish themselves while working with a small budget. Oftentimes they also have little experience. Most people in the film business tend to look to Kevin Smith’s “Clerks” as the model for this method. He made the movie with no experience and a handful of his friends in a gas station, on a budget of about $27,000 that he raised by selling his comic book collection, asking for family donations and maxing out credit cards. “Clerks” went on to make over $3 million, and Smith is now one of the better-known indie directors working today. However, this doesn’t answer the question of how to go about learning the art of filmmaking. If you can raise enough money, you can rent a camera and point it at things, but unless you’re Quentin Tarantino and manage to just absorb everything about every movie ever due to what I can only assume is a deal with some evil entity or demon of some sort, you might want to think about actually studying film before jumping in. There is, again, the “traditional” route of going to film school, studying films, taking production classes and spending a lot of time and effort on something you have a very slight chance of ever being really successful in. We’re not going to talk about that, because it’s what I’m doing and these thoughts depress me. However, if you’re only casually interested in how these awesome movies are made, or would like to learn more without having to invest time and a college education on it, then there’s a very thoughtful group of filmmakers on the Internet who have just the thing. Organizations like Film Riot (who have an amazing YouTube channel) or Madison’s own TrezyTV (check them out at trezy.tv) produce videos that break down exactly how filmmakers achieve different effects or techniques and teach you how you can do them yourself. The tutorials are totally free, informative, hilarious and a fantastic resource for anybody curious about film production. Aside from that, good luck. I know I’ll need it.

Expectations for the next four years Expanding access to higher education
P
resident Barack Obama has already proven his commitment to the cause of expanding the reach and accessibility of higher education during his first four years in office. During his first term in office, Obama expanded education tax credits, expanded the federal investment in Pell Grants and helped maintain a low interest rate on Stafford loans. Having relied heavily on both these past initiatives and future intended initiatives during his campaign, Obama has even more to live up to in the next four years—and as college students, it is extremely important to us that he does.
Obama has promised to work with Congress to expand the affordability and accountability of community college education systems across the nation. If he can fulfill that promise, it will drastically increase the number of children from working class families that are able to attend college and expand the skilled work force in these trying economic times. In addition, making college more affordable will help decrease the achievement gap along class and racial lines and make our nation stronger as a whole. However, we also acknowledge the very real concerns of the deficit that is looming over the heads of the students of our generation, already swimming in debt from higher edcation. It is somewhat unrealistic to assume that Obama will be
able to continue expanding federal research and aid grants to college students, as the federal government will undoubtedly have to tighten its belt over the coming fiscal year. What we expect from the Obama adminsitration is to simply continue to fight for the interests of the young people who voted for him and work to maintain and continue the progress of the last four years.
Establishing new immigration laws
A
s students, we strongly believe that education provides a pathway into appreciating and understanding the virtues of the United States. In this, we support the DREAM Act and believe that Obama should continue pushing to implement it on a national level. We believe that it would be unfair to punish an individual for being an undocumented immigrant to the United States if they were brought into the country as a child without a say in the matter. Not only does the DREAM Act provide these individuals with a pathway to citizenship, but it also encourages them to see the value in education, thus driving them to become productive members of society.
Thursday, November 15, 2012 This being said, we also believe that the immigration process should be revised so that fewer individuals and families feel pressured to migrate without legal documentation. During his second term, former President George W. Bush proposed a plan that would tighten border control while providing a legal way for current undocumented immigrants to become citizens. While we do not necessarily endorse this specific proposal, we believe that President Obama should, like Bush, recognize that the current process for becoming a United States citizen is inefficient. We believe that with this recognition and a simpler process for obtaining citizenship, the incentive to legally immigrate to the United States would be stronger, ideally leading to a decrease in undocumented immigration. Even then, however, we believe the DREAM Act needs to exist to protect individuals who have no say in coming to the United States in the first place.

Who is appointed could change the composition of the court, which could have enormous implications for future cases brought to the court. Currently, conservative justices hold a 5-4 majority in the Supreme Court. Replacing even one conservative justice with a liberal one would immediately shift the majority to a liberal court. We expect Obama to carefully consider the justice or justices he appoints. This editorial board recognizes that gay marriage, Roe v. Wade and Affirmative Action are all issues that could be brought before the court in the near future. Liberal justices will ensure individuals’ rights remain intact. A majority liberal Supreme Court would likely align with Obama’s liberal attitude toward social issues, which is a viewpoint we favor. We believe a conservative court would be more likely to strike down affirmative action, Roe v. Wade and legalization of gay marriage. These are important issues that will likely come before the Supreme Court and we hope Obama nominates justices who will not ban gay marriage, affirmative action and abortion.

Homeless need long-term solutions, not empty promises noah phillips opinion columnist
T
his is the final installment of a three-part series I’ve written on a single meeting held Monday night. I’ve used this meeting as an opportunity to delve pretty deeply into the tensions and issues surrounding Occupy Madison as it moves from neighborhood to neighborhood. Despite the fact that this meeting occurred Monday, over the past three days
I have used it as a snapshot to provide insights into the escalating breakdown in communication between the homeless and, apparently, the rest of the world. When we left off, tensions were high in the Dane County Human Services Building, where a meeting was being held between the homeless community, the neighborhood community and the neighborhood’s elected officials. Anger over the presence of the unhoused on neighborhood greenspace had turned into anger about the city and county officials’ inability to move forward on this issue. Several men and women had broken into tears at
the predicament of the Occupiers. Emotions were truly raw in every corner. Supervisor Melissa Sargent, who facilitated the meeting, deserves much praise for keeping it from devolving into utter chaos. The vital question on the table was whether the homeless people on the site had to be there. If they had other options then the Northport residents couldn’t see any justification for camping out in tents in their park. If they had no options then the omnus certainly seemed like it was on the government to do something pretty darn quick. And then Lynn Green spoke. Lynn Green is the director of Dane County’s Department of Human Services, which provides services to over 300,000 people in Dane County each year. These services aid the disabled, the elderly, the unemployed and many others. Green maintained that there were openings in the shelter system. However, she acknowledged that there had been failures in communication between service providers and the homeless people living at Occupy. She attributed this to the highly amorphous nature of the group. She said it was impossible to keep track of or in touch with homeless people in need of services at Occupy Madison. Someone living there one week may not be there the next. And so Lynn Green made a vow: A vow that, in her eyes and in the eyes of the Northport community, would settle the matter. It sounded sublimely reasonable and charitable, but it was still steeped in the false premises and misunderstandings of a top dog used to top-down leadership. She declared that she would personally meet with each of the 28 people on site and would connect them with services. She
needed names and contact information. And she identified Brenda Konkel as the person who would give it to her. Brenda Konkel is a tireless, invaluable advocate for the homeless community. Of all the outstanding allies of the site— I include myself in that proud number—she possibly has given the most time and energy. She has been an alder and has spent decades in the non-profit sector. But she is not the leader of Occupy. Lynn Green, top dog, pointed her out and did what top dogs do: Look for other top dogs to grapple with. People at the head of hierarchies never know how to interface with horizontal groups. She foisted the leadership framework on us, making Brenda personally responsible for the 28 people living at Occupy. Lynn Green was offering systemic solutions within a system which actively undermines the kind of collaborative dynamic that has allowed Occupy to survive for a whole year. The neighborhood itself was clamoring for this kind of systemic solution. And so we, the homeless and their allies, were presented with what would be perceived by many as a great victory. An opportunity for members of Occupy Madison to jump the line for services. To meet personally with the director of the Department of Human Services. Isn’t this the big break we’d all been working toward? No. No it was not. First off, Brenda has a day job and doesn’t have time to be a case manager for 28 people. Second, taking this offer would be selling out. Once the needs of these particular people are addressed, Lynn Green and the other arms of the government will wash their hands of the whole
movement, calling it resolved. This is a trick. Defining discrete goals is an invaluable tool toward action. But after the homeless people on site have been treated, the glorious window of opportunity will close again. It always does. And whatever tent city pops up next will have no momentum, no advocates, no attention and no sympathy. Of course no one will say outright that the problem of homelessness is solved. But the departure of the issue from the public eye amounts to the same exact thing. I am not demonizing Lynn Green, the county’s Human Services Department or Porchlight. But there is no legal place for homeless people to go or to sleep. It’s illegal to be homeless. And after these 28 individuals are safely sequestered away in shelters, it will continue to be illegal to be homeless. We’re not working to get these specific 28 people who have fallen through the cracks off the street. We’re working to make sure everyone in Madison who has fallen through the cracks, and everyone who will fall through the cracks in the future, has the right to community. The right to band together and take care of one another on unused public land, which is the closest thing we have to commons. We need support in developing infrastructure for spontaneous, democratic and sustainable communities. Give a man shelter, and he’ll stay disenfranchised. Let a man or woman form a community and they can raise themselves and those around them up. We acknowledge that permanent solutions are outside the scope of budgets. They lie instead in mutual aid and solidarity. Read Noah’s entire article online at dailycardinal.com.

Wisconsin in the otherwise tough night, it was freshman forward Sam Dekker. The highly touted wing out of Sheboygan Lutheran High School gave the Badgers some
much-needed offensive production off the bench, finishing with 11 points, three rebounds and three assists. Facing his first ranked opponent, it was clear that Dekker
wasn’t afraid to be aggressive on the offensive end. Having gotten their wakeup call, the Badgers now must respond when they face Cornell at the Kohl Center Sunday, kicking off the “regional” rounds of the Las Vegas Invitational. With just over a week until Wisconsin faces its next ranked opponent (No. 15 Creighton), the Badgers’ next two games will be crucial in getting the train back on the tracks and avoiding an early season skid.

Senior running back Montee Ball debated a position switch the last time Ohio State played at Camp Randall. This time around, Ball could set the NCAA career touchdown record. Story by Parker Gabriel
M
ontee Ball’s run to this point started out of necessity more than anything. Oct. 23, 2010, James White, then in the midst of putting together his Big Ten Freshman of the Year season, sprained his knee against Iowa. John Clay carried most of the load for No. 10 Wisconsin against the then-No. 13 Hawkeyes in a back-and-forth contest, but Ball made his mark. One week after not touching the ball in an upset of thenNo. 1 Ohio State, Ball chipped in 51 yards receiving on four catches, including a diving, fourth-down grab in traffic on Wisconsin’s game-winning drive. He capped that drive with an 8-yard touchdown run, dragging multiple Hawkeyes across the goal line with him. The score was Ball’s fourth touchdown of the season and the eighth of his career. Pretty good for a sophomore in a talented backfield, but nothing special. Special is exactly what the Wentzville, Mo., native has been since, though, and now he finds himself on the brink of history. In the final five games of 2010, Clay only carried the ball 27 times due to injury. Ball took over, and he has hardly looked back.
Twenty-nine games and 69 touchdowns later, the senior needs just one touchdown to tie former Miami (Ohio) University star Travis Prentice’s NCAA record for touchdowns in a career at 78, and two to hold the mark by himself.
“How many touchdowns did he have last year, 39? Thirty-nine seems like a normal number to me just because that’s how it’s been.” Travis Frederick redshirt junior center Wisconsin football
Ball has four opportunities to break the record—two remaining regular season games, the Big Ten Championship Game and a bowl game—but Saturday against Ohio State (6-0 Big Ten, 10-0 overall) will be his final appearance at Camp Randall Stadium. “It’s just a tremendous opportunity for him, and with the chance to happen on Senior Day for him is also a tremendous opportunity,” redshirt junior center Travis Frederick said. “You can really just relish what he’s done and really appreciate the things he’s done.”
Stat stuffer The “things” Frederick references include a laundry list of accomplishments and stats that jump off the page no matter how many times they are put on paper. Ball has 26 multi-touchdown games. He tied the NCAA record for touchdowns in a season in 2011 with 39, which was more than 42 teams scored last year. He already holds the Big Ten record in rushing touchdowns at 71, and will tie Prentice for the NCAA record with two more. Prentice scored a touchdown every 15.3 touches for his career and a rushing touchdown every 15.6 attempts. Ball has scored every 11.3 touches and every 11.5 carries. “I’m going to be honest, I’ve been kind of spoiled,” said Frederick, who came to UW in the same recruiting class as Ball. “In the time I’ve been playing, he’s been playing. How many touchdowns did he have last year, 39? Thirty-nine seems like a normal number to me just because that’s how it’s been.” Ball is the NCAA’s active leader in yards (4,536), and has averaged 135.3 yards per game since that game-winning drive against Iowa, but his prodigious
scoring rate is what will likely cement his spot in the annals of college football. “Coming into this year, I don’t remember what he had, but I remember hearing how much he had, and it was hard for me to think about somebody going into the end zone that many times,” said Ryan Groy, another redshirt junior and classmate of Ball’s. “I didn’t think it was humanly possible.” Ball said he had his own doubts about breaking the record after a slow start this year. After averaging 2.8 scores per game in 2011, he accounted for just three touchdowns in Wisconsin’s four 2012 non-conference games. Since then, he’s got 13 scores in six games.

GREY SATTERFIELD/CARDINAL FILE PHOTO
The 2012 senior class looks to close out their Camp Randall careers against undefeated Ohio State, led by sophomore quarterback Braxton Miller, who has passed for 1,753 yards
2012 senior class one of program’s best W hen this year’s Wisconsin football senior class arrived on campus for summer conditioning prior to their first fall camp, they came to a program looking to establish themselves as a premier team on a conference and national level, especially after getting embarrassed in the 2008 Champs Sports Bowl against Florida State by a score of 42-13. Fast forward to 2012 and you will find a team that has done that and more.
Story by Rex Sheild In terms of on-the-field performance, this class has been one of the more successful classes in Wisconsin history, winning back-to-back Big Ten Championships in 2010 and 2011 and going to the Rose Bowl in each of those years. Not to mention they have already clinched their spot for another trip to Indianapolis for the Big Ten Championship game with their win against Indiana last weekend, which means they will have yet another opportunity to go to a third-straight Rose Bowl, a feat that has only been accomplished once before in the history of the conference (Michigan, 1976-1978). A total of nine seniors will be honored at Camp Randall before Saturday’s showdown with the Ohio State Buckeyes, includ-
ing quarterback Curt Phillips, running back Montee Ball, offensive linemen Rick Wagner and Robert Burge, defensive end Brendan Kelly, linebacker Mike Taylor, cornerbacks Devin Smith and Marcus Cromartie and safety Shelton Johnson. Additionally, student-assistants Zach Davison and Jordan Kohout, who were forced to retire after career-ending injuries, will also be honored. Despite the fact that this class has enjoyed its fair share of success on the gridiron, they have faced an unusual amount of adversity en route to that success. “All of them great stories. All of them great perseverance,” head coach Bret Bielema said. “To be a senior in Division I football and to make it this far, you’re going to have to go through some things, and thankfully we’ve got
really good kids that are provided with really good support.” Pick any one of these 11 seniors and you will not find a player that has not faced a setback, either on the field or off and even though they have all faced setbacks during their time at Wisconsin, each story is different. Taylor survived a multitude of gruesome injuries throughout his years on campus but has elevated himself as one of the top established in the conference. Ball went through many trials and hardships, especially this past August when he was attacked by five men and suffered a concussion, forcing him to miss the start of fall camp,. Despite the setbacks, he is homing in on becoming the NCAA’s all-time leader in career touchdowns. Cromartie escaped the devastation of Hurricane Katrina and has played his best football during his final year. Johnson played an additional eight plays after breaking his arm against Oregon State earlier this year because, according to Bielema, “he wanted to stay in the game and didn’t want to let his teammates down.” Smith was forced to miss all but two games last year after suf-
fering a foot injury, but has performed at a high level this year. Burge momentarily quit the team but later returned and eventually received a scholarship before the start of this year. Wagner was forced to miss two games this year with a knee injury but has come back strong as one of the anchors of the offensive line. While Phillips and Kelly are filing for a sixth year of eligibility with the NCAA, a situation that is still to be determined, both have suffered monumental injuries, including three ACL surgeries for Phillips, but have elevated themselves to starters at their respective positions. Saturday will certainly be special for Davison as well, especially after the agony and turmoil he went through when he and coach Bielema decided that it was in his best interest in terms of health to step away from the game. “It’s always been a dream [to be introduced on Senior Day]. It’s just exciting that it’s come to this, it’ll be fun,” Davison said. “It’ll be good to get my family out there because they’ve helped me so much through this whole deal. I think it’s important for them to see that I finished this all the way
through as it is for me to walk out on Senior Day.” While Wisconsin has not lost a Senior Day game since 2005, a 20-10 loss against Iowa in Barry Alvarez’s last home game at the helm, the streak could be in serious jeopardy this weekend. In Urban Meyer’s first year as head coach, the Buckeyes are one of the few unbeaten teams in the country and feature star quarterback Braxton Miller, who has thrown for over 1,700 yards and ran for almost 1,200 yards with a total of 27 touchdowns. The outcome of the showdown with Ohio State Saturday will surely not deteriorate the level of success this group of seniors has achieved, as they have already left their mark on the program by lifting them to consistent Big Ten contenders and, while they have different backgrounds, one thing stands out. “I’m definitely going to remember every single one of them because we all have different stories, we all come from different backgrounds,” Ball said. “The great thing about it is coming from all the different backgrounds, we all come together for one common goal, and that’s something that you cherish as a player.”

GREY SATTERFIELD/THE DAILY CARDINAL
Five things to watch compiled by Brett Bachman
1
UNTESTED ARM
Wisconsin began last Saturday’s rout of Indiana by starting redshirt senior Curt Phillips, their third quarterback of the year. The last time Wisconsin started three different quarterbacks in a season was 1975. Phillips was in to replace an injured redshirt freshman Joel Stave, who left an Oct. 27 homecoming contest against Michigan State with a broken collarbone and is predicted to return for spring practice following this season. From a statistical standpoint, Phillips was four-of-seven for 41 yards, adding another 68 yards on the ground. Ohio State will be a true test for the raw fifth-year senior, who has been touted for his running ability but hasn’t really had a chance yet to prove his arm. Beating Ohio State Saturday will require a more balanced offensive attack after the Badgers posted a whopping 564 total rushing yards and just 41 yards through the air against Indiana. Keep an eye on Phillips in his second start. The quarterback’s passing performance could make or break Wisconsin’s game plan.
2
FAST AND STEADY WINS THE RACE As much as Wisconsin’s quar-
terback position has been a whirlwind of adjustments and question marks this season, Ohio State has brandished a steady, Heismanhopeful leader under center in sophomore Braxton Miller. Through 10 games he has 1,166 rushing and 1,753 passing yards, en route to the Ohio State offense ranking 12th in the nation in points scored per game and an undefeated record so far this year. While the sanctions Ohio State is facing for NCAA violations prevent them from reaching the postseason, the team is still gunning for an undefeated season and Miller is still looking to use that accomplishment as an exclamation point in his case for a Heisman trophy. Watch for another big performance out of Miller and the Ohio State offense.
3
DEFENDING QUARTERBACKS ON THE RUN
The only team Wisconsin has faced thus far that boasts a quarterback with over 500 yards rushing is Nebraska, which ended with a final score of 30-27 after a second-half rally by the Huskers that left a lone field goal standing between UW and opening the Big Ten season with a victory. In that week five matchup, Wisconsin’s defense allowed Nebraska’s junior quarterback Taylor Martinez to rush for 107 yards and a touchdown that started a 20-point second half, leaving the Badgers down by three at the final whistle. Facing Miller poses a lot of the same problems that Martinez did,

though Wisconsin’s defense has come a long way since then. Look out for the way Wisconsin’s defense handles Miller’s run threat—it might hold the difference between winning and losing for the Badgers.
4
TEAM ABBY IN THE RUNNING GAME
The Badgers took a more onesided approach to gaining yards last Saturday, with 564 yards coming on the ground and only 41 through the air. Included in those 564 rushing yards were 37 from redshirt junior Jared Abbrederis—a man that’s made his mark in the program as a wide receiver. Just two carries allowed Abbrederis to gain those 37 yards, for an average of 18.5 yards per carry. While it may seem insignificant, the jet sweep that allowed Abbrederis to gain almost 40 yards adds another wrinkle to an offense that at times seems a little predictable, especially when Wisconsin coaches scale back the passing game like they did last week. The relationship Abbrederis has with the newest quarterback to take the field for the Badgers might be a little different than the previous two this season—but look for Abbrederis to keep gaining yards somehow.
5
BATTLE IN THE TRENCHES
Wisconsin has a long and storied history of playing run-first football behind a gargantuan offensive line, and even though this season started out a little rocky, it seems as if that tradition isn’t going to change any time soon. The 564 yards UW posted last week against Indiana is impressive, but it’s going to be a little more difficult to find that sort of output against Ohio State’s defense. They have been nearly as efficient at stopping the run as Wisconsin, which ranks 13th in the nation in rushing yards allowed. After settling down the offensive line following a rocky start to the season, which included a mid-week coaching change, the Badgers’ front line looks much more prepared to stop a surging Ohio State defense.

Senior Kenjon Barner and sophomore De’Anthony Thomas lead a potent Oregon offense that ranks third in the country in rush yards with 3,251. By Cameron Kalmon THE DAILY CARDINAL
Week 12 of college football has arrived. While Wisconsin dukes it out with Ohio State, teams ranked high in the BCS poll are taking on unranked teams elsewhere in the nation. This provides the chance for many upsets against the remaining undefeated teams.
No. 2 Kansas St. vs Baylor
Baylor may not have the best record, but its offense has been able to get points against tough teams. They have averaged 42.7 points per game, but their defense has allowed an average of 39.4 points per game. Unfortunately for Baylor, Kansas State’s defense has only allowed an average of 17.7 points a game. However, Baylor is a team known for its aerial assault. The Bears are rated second overall in passing yards per game with an astonishing 367.7 yards. It will be up to Kansas State to prevent this game from becoming an offensive shootout. Kansas State’s defense will be led by senior linebacker Arthur Brown and senior defensive back Jarard Milo, as both have over 60 tackles this season.
No. 14 Stanford vs No. 1 Oregon
Oregon, another undefeated team, will be attempting to keep its BCS championship game chances alive Saturday. Oregon is ranked second in the BCS poll but there is debate over whether or not they should be number one. Tough luck for Oregon, because
it is playing Stanford, which is know to have one of the toughest defenses in college football. The question is whether or not redshirt senior outside linebacker Chase Thomas— who has over 50 tackles—and the rest of Stanford’s linebacker corps will be able to stop senior running back Kenjon Barner of Oregon. Barner has rushed for 1,295 yards this season, putting him 300 yards over his total yards last season for the Ducks. With the aid of Barner, Oregon has rushed for an average of over 325 yards a game this season, ranking them third in rushing. Head coach Chip Kelly has developed a new ground attack football offense. Unlike the “old style,” Kelly can have his offense spread across the field and still have an effective run game. What makes this offense so effective is area and athletes. Spreading the offense forces the defenses they play to put more men in the flats or change to man coverage. Spreading the defense allows open lanes up the center of the field for Barner to work his way through. Oregon’s other athletes are just as important to its winning recipe. Barner can only run the ball until the defense starts blitzing corners and sending linebackers. Fortunately for Oregon, its passing game averages over 237 yards a game, which is respectable for a traditional rushing offense. It is Oregon’s game to lose, but do not look past Stanford. They have the capability to pull off the upset.
Wake Forest vs No. 3 Notre Dame
The Fighting Irish are one of the four remaining undefeated teams in college football and have stepped up this season and surprised many. Their undefeated record may be attributed to their No. 1 ranked defense. Of the remaining undefeated teams in college football, Notre Dame arguably has the easiest game this week. Although no team should be looked past, Wake Forest has not been putting up points this season. They are ranked 108th in points scored in college football. Usually this is not a good sign, but when they are about to play the No. 1 defense, it is frightening for Wake Forest.
Minnesota vs No. 16 Nebraska
Nebraska is the only Big Ten team that is still ranked in the BCS standings and will be fighting for a good bowl game. This game may not have a huge impact on the rankings, but it has the potential to be one of the closer games of week 12. Minnesota is coming off a big 17-3 win over Illinois, but Nebraska has a four-game win streak that they will be fighting to continue.
Iowa vs No. 24 Michigan
Michigan has the ability to travel to Lucas Oil Stadium for the Big Ten championship game Dec. 1. The Wolverines will need to win their next two games and Nebraska will need to lose at least one of its remaining two games. Both teams are
5-1 in Big Ten play. Although this game means little from a national perspective, it is important for Michigan if they seek to be Big Ten champions this season. This game will be no cakewalk for Michigan, as Iowa’s record is not indicative of its toughness or that they are respectable Big Ten foes. Luckily for Iowa, Michigan senior quarterback Denard Robinson is injured. Michigan junior quarterback Devin Gardner will be filling in. While three teams fight to remain undefeated, a few teams in the Big Ten will be more concerned with their bowl standing. The most important games this week will be played by Kansas State, Oregon and Notre Dame, but the closest and perhaps more interesting games to watch this weekend will be in the Big Ten.
