E-Commerce Giant Amazon Reduces Dependence on Third-Party Shipping

Jack Taylor/The Avion Newspaper Judge Napolitano, a Senior Fox News Judicial Analyst, spoke as part of the ERAU Speakers Series. Marc Bernier moderated the discussion. Questions ranged from the Clinton emails, the Patriot Act, the death penalty, and Abraham Lincoln.

Judge Andrew Napolitano Talks Politics at Speaker Series Jaclyn Wiley News Editor

What’s Inside

Does the Constitution still hold as much power as it once did? Does the Federal Government respect that document and follow the wishes of the Framers? How do these questions relate to modern political issues, like the Clinton email scandal or the lasting effect of the Patriot Act on national security? One viewpoint on these issues, and more, was presented to the Embry-Riddle community recently by a speaker in the Embry-Riddle Speakers Series. This speaker, Distinguished Professor of Law and former New Jersey Superior Court Judge Andrew Napolitano, spoke about how the Constitution is being misinterpreted by the various political powers that be. Judge Napolitano, a Senior Judicial Analyst

for Fox News Channel, drew a large crowd, resulting in a packed auditorium. The audience was a mixture of students and members of the public. There were also multiple judges in the crowd, who were called upon at certain times for their insight or comment on an issue. Napolitano, a Notre Dame-educated lawyer, is a libertarian. The Libertarian Party bases its platform on the idea that the government should not encroach on the rights of the people, with a famous slogan reading, “Minimum government, maximum freedom.” Libertarians are the third largest political party in the United States. The party is generally in the center of the political spectrum, with ideals that can be attributed to both of the larger parties. Most libertarians oppose the death penalty, high taxes, and

aggressive foreign policy, and support equal marriage and social rights, personal responsibility, and r eligious freedom. According to Judge Napolitano, the two main parties, the Democrats and the Republicans, are, in effect, actually one large party with two wings. These two wings make up the “Big Government Party,” which, as the name states, want a big government, which has much control over the lives of the people. Napolitano defended this by citing various examples of how Presidents from either party have expanded the powers of their office, therefore, the powers of the government, and have taken power from the hands of the people. Napolitano is wellknown for his strong stance against governmental encroachment on the rights of the people.

Governmental spying on the people, like that committed in the name of national security by various U.S. intelligence agencies, is abhorrent to the Judge, an example of the inevitable invasion of privacy that accompanies an increase in security. Another invasion, or set of invasions, accompanied the Patriot Act, which was passed in 2001. According to Napolitano, the Patriot Act was passed as an emotional reaction to the events of 9/11 and was not thoroughly read by most of Congress. Judge Napolitano claimed that the Patriot Act was posted on the Congress intranet system less than half an hour before the vote was set to happen. The Act was over 300 pages in length, and was therefore impossible to finish reading in that timeframe. One of the Judge’s stanc-

Amazon.com, Inc. (NYSE: AMZN) recently leased 20 Boeing 767 freighters to enhance its customer support capabilities. Amazon leased the freighters from Air Transport Services Group (ATSG) for five years. In this wet lease period, ATSG has agreed to provide its crew and support to Amazon, in exchange for a 19.9% share of company stock. The deal allows Amazon to move goods to major distribution centers in order control costs and speed, without as many hassles, especially at times of peak ordering. The freighters will act as supplements to, but not replacements for UPS, FedEx and USPS. In a statement, an Amazon executive said, “We offer Earth’s largest selec-

This view is that the Constitution, and the rights that it affords to people, follow the government wherever it goes. This means that any human being, regardless of nationality, citizenship, or legal status, is treated with the same rights under the law when dealing with the US government as any other human being. This means that, despite being a terrorist or illegal immigrant, human beings still have to be treated like human beings, rather than as sources of information or parasites that need to be scattered.

Market analysts predict this deal will cost Amazon a whopping $125 million. However, this is an investment in customer service abilities and reliability, leading to long term profit increases.

Students were encouraged to ask questions, as well as members of the public. These questions ranged in topic from the Judge’s stance on same-sex marriage (pro), abortion (against), police cameras (pro), and drone usage by the government on or against the American people (very much against). This event was the second-to-last event in there Embry-Riddle Speakers Series. The next, and final, speaker in the Series will be Lt. Col. Ron Mumm, the Commander of the 1996 Thunderbirds Team. Marc Bernier will host and moderate the event, which will feature a Q&A session with the audience members. This event will take place on April 11 at 7 p.m.

Students at Embry-Riddle will soon have the opportunity to compete in a rocketry competition like no other. The Let It Fly rocketry contest requires that students design and 3D print a rocket, which will be launched at NEFAR Field in Bunnell, Fla. The contest is 3-fold, meaning that the rockets will be judged on accuracy landing, functional landing, and altitude. Accuracy landing refers to the ability of the team to land the rocket as close to the targets as possible

and functional landing refers to landing the rocket upright, safely. There will be 15 teams of 3 ERAU students, who will primarily be drawn from the 3D Printing Club, the Embry-Riddle Future Space Explorers and Developers Society (ERFSEDS) and the Experimental Rocketry and Propulsion Lab (ERPL). The designing, printing and building portion of the contest will take place at Embry-Riddle. The launch portion of the contest will take place at NEFAR Field in Bunnell, Fla, on April 10, from 9 a.m. to 3 p.m. The address is 11680

County Road 305, Bunnell, Fla. Bunnell is a 40-minute drive from Daytona Beach. Students will have their rockets inspected and cleared by field judges before the contest. The university teams will battle it out with the goal of reaching the highest combined score in all three categories. The winning team will get a VIP experience to their choice, with options to be announced later. Many of the students are also applying to be involved with Project Icarus. Project Icarus is a team of highly specialized engineers who hope to break the previous altitude

record, set by ERAU students in 2007. In 2007 Project Icarus set the World Record for the highest altitude student-built rocket at 37 miles (just under 200,000 feet) Not only do students hope to beat the height set in 2007, but they want to do so by the summer of 2017. The event is free and open to the public; everyone is welcome. The Let It Fly rocketry contest is associated with Red Bull Energy Drink, and sanctioned by the National Association of Rocketry and the Northeast Florida Association of Rocketry.

Security Has Your Lost Items Lt. Jaime Gonzalez Campus Security Have you ever lost or misplaced an item while walking through campus? Such as keys, iPhone, wallets, thumb drives and so forth? If you have, then you are not alone. Many students have come to Campus Safety to inquire about their missing or lost property. Did you know that our lost and found is located in our Communications Center right the next to the Eagle Card office? We at Safety & Security want to acknowledge and draw attention to the numerous number of good-hearted and honest students who took time to turn in lost & found

items to the custody of Safety & Security. If you are one of these students who have performed this act of kindness, we wanted you to know that your actions have not gone unnoticed. For example, a found wallet which was returned to our office had credit cards and $240.00 in cash still inside the wallet. Car keys with remote door openers. Very expensive iPhones, iPads, tablets, and the list goes on and on. Many of you did not even want to be recognized and simply said “it is the right thing to do”. For those of you who have exercised these acts of honesty and integrity, and you all know who you are, we at the Cam-

pus Safety Department wanted to thank you and tell the entire ERAU community that our students are a cut above and they exhibit a high level of morality. Thank you for being who you are, you guys rock! And for the students and staff members who were the recipients of such honesty and kindness coming from the heart of our students, you must remember this one thing, “you cannot pay honesty and kindness back, you can only pay it forward”. Our communications dispatchers are on duty around the clock. There are three shifts with at least two dispatchers on duty at any given time. If you are looking for

an item you have lost, it may turn up at any time, so please keep checking with the lost and found. Now let me introduce you to a few of our communications dispatchers. It is physically impossible to have them all together at the same time, so I apologize to the others not in the picture. From left to right are Charles Litzler, Sealtiel Alves, Rob Barney, and Archana Krishnan. When you call Campus Safety & Security these are the people you talk to first. Be patient with them when they talk to you - they are trying to get as much information as possible in order to relay it to our safety officers. As always, “It’s in your interest!!!”

Dear Editor,

05 2016

A Letter to the Editor

I am writing to the Avion because I am frustrated with the current Embry-Riddle construction situation, and how it is a perfect example of how the University treasures increasing the student population more than improving the student quality of life. The massive amount of progress made on the new residence hall between Doolittle and the Student Village far dwarfs progress on the new Student Center/UC. This disparity in progress is indicative of the University’s mindset, which favors quantity of students over the quality of life for students. I am writing under the pen name “Claudia Reisman" because I am currently employed by Embry-Riddle Aeronautical University in multiple positions and fear retribution. Like all of the students at Embry-Riddle, I am heavily dependent on the university, especially since I have a meal plan and live on campus. The University provides almost everything for me. This dependence, however, does not promise my silence about issues that affect the students that the University claims to be putting first.

It makes financial sense for the University to complete the new residence hall faster than the new UC. Construction is expensive, and so is running a university in general. With tuition currently costing over $15,000 per semester, and nearly 5,000 undergraduate students enrolled, the school takes in about $150,000,000 per academic year. This income is the school’s primary source of revenue. By bringing in more students, the University gets more money to continue providing top-tier education to its students and complete more construction. But the University pledges that it places, “students first.” Not money. If Embry-Riddle really cared about putting the students first, it would try to complete construction that improves the quality of life of the student body, rather than the depth of the University’s pockets. Building the new UC would better the quality of life for the students; this is especially true because they would be able to utilize a larger, less crowded library. The current library is so small that many of the books in the University's collection don't fit in there. These books are currently being hidden in a few

of the racquetball courts across from the Fitness Center. If you don't believe me, check it out. The construction of the new residence hall, however, has done nothing to improve the quality of life for current students. In fact, it has decreased the quality of life for many students. The students most affected are those who live in the Student Village. The construction crews have fenced off large areas of the

of the President, Vice President and Treasurer of the SGA, the Chief Justice of the Court, and the Heads of the SGA Divisions. The divisions are Touch-N-Go, WIKD and The Avion Newspaper. These organizations and the Court hold their own separate and internal elections. There are also elections for the Student Representative Board (SRB) and the Student Finance Board (SFB). There are 23 elected members of the SRB, and six elected members on the SFB. In the SRB, there are representatives from each of the Colleges, as well as other interest groups around campus. These representatives are chaired by the Vice President and meet to listen to the concerns of the students and create projects and committees to help alleviate those concerns. There are over 25 people running for positions on the SRB, with many coming from the College of Engineering. The SFB is chaired by the Treasurer and

campus, which include all of the convenient ways to walk from the Student Village to the main campus. In fact, all of the remaining pathways cut through parking lots or cross busy public roads. This is dangerous for the students that have to walk, bike, or board to class since their risk of being run over by a car has increased exponentially. In the past, a student could walk from the Student Village to the COAS without having to risk their

lives or limbs. Additionally, the construction of the new residence hall takes place in the late hours of the night and the early hours of the morning, when students are trying to sleep. This disruption is harmful to the students’ ability to concentrate and think, which adversely affects their grades. This only leads to a greater degree of student turnover, which frees up more beds for the University to fill

with more students. As it stands, the construction so far has been based on expanding the student population, rather than improving the quality of life for the students already here. Unless Embry-Riddle wants to change its motto to "money first," it has to own up to its promise and actually try to improve the quality of life of its students. Thank you, Claudia Reisman

SGA Elections Upcoming

The time has come for the students of Embry-Riddle to choose new representatives for the SGA; the elected individuals will begin their terms in Fall 2016. SGA elections begin on April 4 and end on April 8. All students are allowed, and encouraged, to vote for their representatives for the coming year. There are many positions up for election, including the President, Vice President, and Treasurer. These three positions run for office as a ticket, and this year, there are three potential tickets for the SGA executive candidates. The President of the SGA is a voting delegate in the Board of Trustees and the presiding officer that takes full responsibility for the actions of the SGA. This important position is supported by the rest of the Executive Board. The Executive Board of the SGA is made up

These elections are immensely important, since they are a way for the students to indicate what they want in the ERAU community, and to have their voices heard. The following are the executive candidate tickets.

Ticket 1: Abigail Martin Alexandra Garlotte Brian Gruzdis

Ticket 2: Dustin Gibson Aaronn Spiewak Katelyn Wentworth

Ticket 3: Shanice Anderson Lonnie Marts Alec Schrok

Students can vote for these candidates startin April 4, and ending April 8, in the Student Center.

A5 Campus A Letter to the Editor Response Page

05 2016

Many students have expressed confusion or frustration about the construction around campus. It is loud, makes them take long detours around the large construction areas, and has had seemingly disproportionate progress on the two main projects. These two projects are the new residence hall and the new Student Center (UC). This frustration was officially brought to the attention of The Avion and the administration when a Letter to the Editor, written by a student under a pseudonym, was submitted to the Avion’s Editor-In-Chief. The letter is published on A4 of this issue. The Letter to the Editor, which was received in March, was written by a student who works on campus in multiple places, lives on campus, has a meal plan, and fears retribution. The thesis of the letter was that the construction on campus is aimed more at making the quantity of students higher, rather than the quality of life for students better. This choice, which is evidenced by the rapid progress of the new residence hall, is, in the eyes of the student author, a betrayal of the University motto, “Students First.” The reason the University would place an emphasis on the increase in students population, according to the letter, is to increase

the amount of student tuition dollars that are available for various projects. In order to provide the administration the opportunity to address these concerns and in an effort to maintain journalistic integrity, Andy Lichtenstein, the Editor-In-Chief of The Avion Newspaper, passed this letter along to Rodney Cruise, Vice President for Administration and Planning. Lincoln Kelly, the President of the SGA was also made aware of the student’s concerns. This article aims to address the letter, based on information that was gathered at a meeting that took place between Rodney Cruise, Lincoln Kelly, Andy Lichtenstein and Jaclyn Wiley, News Editor at The Avion. Cruise is in charge of the construction projects on the Daytona Beach campus, as well as those in Prescott and various ERAU Worldwide campus locations.

“

Due to the highly specialized nature of the new UC, the design process took nearly twice as long as that of the new residence hall.

dents, and many students to come, will use. Lincoln Kelly, the President of the SGA, was also invited to comment on the letter. Kelly acts as a student representative on multiple boards that deal with the construction on campus. He has continually advocated for the Student Body’s interest in these committees. The reason the new residence hall was planned was to improve student quality of life. The design process for the new residence hall began in the early part of the Fall 2015 semester when the amount of student enrollment was so high that many students were forced to live in a three-student room. Many students had signed

their housing contracts expecting to be roomed with only one roommate, but received two. Despite the discount that these students got on their housing fees, many still felt as though they were misled or improperly treated. The SGA and other groups brought this issue forward to the proper authorities, who eventually approved the construction of a new residence hall, built with the purpose of reducing the overcrowding of the current residence halls. The new residence hall is much less specialized than the new Student Center. Additionally, the architects that were contracted to the design the hall specialize in creating dorms, condos and

apartments, meaning that the process is shorter and less involved. This is not the case with the new Student Center, which is a highly specialized building. This building would be an asset to the student quality of life and would contain a Qdoba Mexican restaurant, a large library, a Starbucks and a large event space. Due to the highly specialized nature of the new UC, the design process took nearly twice as long as that of the new residence hall. The construction time for the new UC will also be double that of the new hall, for the same reason. The administration and the SGA have heard the complaints of the students informally and have organized a Town

Hall Meeting so that these complaints can be formally logged. This meeting will be moderated by the Interim Chancellor, Dr. Brady. Student comment is encouraged and welcomed at the Chancellor’s Town Hall Meeting on April 6, in the Henderson Welcome Center at 7 p.m. “I believe that town hall meetings foster authentic communication, mutual understanding and transparency between administration and students,” said Dr. Brady, in a recent University press release. “For this meeting, you’ll hear from our university president, chancellor, student leadership, academic deans, the student leadership council and get a campus facilities update.”

Construction Corner: New Details Jaclyn Wiley News Editor This is the first of a series of routine updates on the state of the various construction projects going on around the Daytona Beach campus. These updates will be published every month in The Avion Newspaper and will be designated as our “Construction Corner.” This series is aimed at decreasing the amount of student frustration and confusion about the construction, which has been growing in the past months, where little effective communication has taken place. The new residence hall is projected to be finished by the end of the Fall 2016 semester. The new UC is projected to be finished by Fall of 2018. The construction committees also took student needs into account when designing the hall. One of the most important issues concerning the construction of the new residence hall to the students

polled by Cruise was not size of room or view, but privacy. Cruise made sure to pass this on to the architects selected to build the hall. As a result, the new hall will have a bath-

room situation similar to Apollo Hall, in which the toilet and shower are in separate areas so that suitemates could theoretically use both amenities at the same time, without

invading the other’s privacy. The new residence hall will also have laundry rooms on each floor, rather than the single laundry room set-up of the Student Village Residence

Halls. Students in McKay Hall will move from McKay to the new hall before the end of the Fall 2016 semester, if all goes according to plan. McKay will be demol-

ished soon after that, and will clear room for another section of the new hall. The new Student Center will feature a Qdoba, a large event space, a Starbucks, and a new, improved library with several hundred seats. Construction projects cannot be built out of order; that is, one step has to be finished before the next can be started. Vertical construction cannot be laid if the foundation has not been poured. One vital step that is currently being handled is the permitting process, which requires a lot of time, due to bureaucracy. Once the permits are ready, the building will begin vertical construction, since most of the underground work, like the pipes and electrical lines have already been, or are currently being, completed. This work, though hard to see through the fence, is vital and ongoing. To learn more about the Student Center, visit http://sites.erau.edu/ studentunion/
