50-43:

Junior wide receiver Christian Kirk had a 100-yard kick off return for a touchdown, securing A&M’s sixth victory over Arkansas in annual matchup.

SIXTH STRAIGHT SUCCESS

Analysis: Kirk, leaders pave way in Texas A&M’s Southwest Classic win By Alex Miller @AlexMill20 ARLINGTON, TX — Facing multiple fourth-quarter deficits, Texas A&M needed somebody to lean on. Fortunately for the Aggies, they found three – particularly No. 3, Christian Kirk. In A&M’s first three games, the explosive wide receiver and special teams weapon had been hindered from a breakout performance. Saturday afternoon against Arkansas however, Kirk kicked down the door and made his presence known. The junior led the Aggies with five receptions for 110 yards and two touchdowns. His final catch proved to be the game-winner on 10-yard corner route in overtime. “It’s a basic high-low corner route. The defender on me slipped inside. Kellen [Mond] saw it, and it was just execution,” Kirk said of the play. “It was a great throw by him, and I just had to make that catch in a big-time like that.” To keep A&M in the game and force overtime, the Aggies turned to Kirk in the

return game after Arkansas went ahead 3633 with 5:21 left. Kirk’s longest kick-return this year coming into the game had been 37 yards, until he took one 100 yards to house giving the Aggies a 40-36 lead with 5:10 to go. “We’d done a great job of kick coverage, really gassing those guys up all week,” Arkansas head coach Bret Bielema said of the touchdown return. “It was a huge play in the game and it happened so quickly. We need to take it down a few. They had to march on the field, they just couldn’t do it. It was a big play that really hurt us.” A sneaky good game came from safety Armani Watts, who led the team with eight tackles. Watts had a roaring finish, as he recorded the game-winning interception in the end zone on the Razorbacks’ overtime possession. ANALYSIS ON PG. 2

A 3-D printed representation of campus helps visually impaired By Tyler Snell @Tyler_Snell2 After years of persistence and fine tuning, a 3D braille map of campus can now be found inside the Memorial Student Center at the entrance closest to Koldus and Kyle Field. The map was placed in the MSC on Sept. 13, and students and visitors who are visually impaired can use the map to navigate around campus. Mechanical engineering junior Tyler Wooten designed and printed the map with the help of the Association of Former Students and University Center & Special Events (UCEN). Wooten thought of the idea for a 3D braille map his freshman year after taking a 3D printing class at the Engi-

neering Innovation Center (EIC) and his involvement with Startup Aggieland. “I was thinking about what I could use the printers for because I really wanted to just keep working with them,” Wooten said. “I reached out to the president of disability services who connected me with Kaitlyn Kellermeyer, and I met up with her to talk about the idea.” Wooten worked with economics senior Kaitlyn Kellermeyer, who lost her vision in both eyes during her freshman year at A&M, disability services and the EIC to print a small version map of campus. The small version, however, posed some complications with the level of detailed contained. “One of the complications we heard was that it was a little too detailed to be that small, so if we could make a larger map that would be extremely helpful,” Wooten said. “We wanted

to put it in a central building so everyone could find it.” Wooten worked with 201617 MSC President Brian O’Hara and UCEN Communications Coordinator Caroline Lopez on putting the large version braille map in the MSC. “We had to get with vendors from Houston, and they helped us design this stand from scratch,” Lopez said. “When they delivered it, we were super excited because it’s been such a long process.” Wooten finished the small scale version his sophomore year but has spent the past year working with the university to print and display the large version. “I was told the map is up and freaked out, hopped on my skateboard and rode to the MSC,” Wooten said. “It’s just surreal seeing it in person.” Assistive Technology Coordinator for Disability Services Justin Romack said this map makes a huge impact on the visually impaired traveling A&M’s campus. “As a totally blind traveler of our campus, it’s awesome to have a tangible representation of the buildings MAP ON PG. 2

While some South Koreans studying at Texas A&M consider themselves home here, many have relatives back in Seoul, South Korea.

S. Koreans address northern tensions Current students from Korean Peninsula discuss thoughts about threats coming from N. Korea By Andrew Little @drewlitt As tensions between North Korea and the international community continue to escalate over an increasing number of missile tests conducted by the regime, South Korean students at Texas A&M are weighing in on what it’s like to study in the U.S. during the international crisis. North Korea has conducted 15 missile tests in 2017 so far, including one nuclear weapon test and their first test of an intercontinental ballistic missile (ICBM). The technological sophistication of their weapons has been increasing rapidly. However, for the majority of South Koreans in the younger generation, living under continual threat of conflict with North Korea has become a normal part of their lives.

1) A&M has taken home the Southwest Classic win every year since joining the SEC. 2) Freshman Kellen Mond hands the ball off to sophomore Trayveon Williams. 3) Safety Armani Watts celebrates his game winning interception to defeat Arkansas.

ANALYSIS CONTINUED “We were running off the MIKE [linebacker]. We had two corner routes. The one to my left was taken, so I figure the one to my right was taken,” Arkansas quarterback Austin Allen said. “I just tried to throw it low and to only where my guy would get it, and their guy made a good play. I thought we were going to get it.” Aside from Mond’s 79-yard run in the first half, the Aggies were held to a mere 46 rushing yards on 15 carries, with the only other run longer than 10 yards coming from Trayveon Williams’ 18-yard touchdown run in the second quarter.

A&M flipped the script in the second half`, busting for 160 yards on 26 carries. Keith Ford led the way with 95 yards on 10 carries in the final 30 minutes, tacking on two touchdowns as well. “We just knew that we were the better team, and we knew — we just communicated with each other,” Ford said. “Just know where the offensive line is going to be and know where my cut is going to be.” Another senior, Damion Ratley, may have made the most pivotal play on the Aggies final drive in regulation, converting a fourth-and-3 to keep A&M’s comeback hopes alive. From there, Ford continued to rip down the field to set up Daniel LaCamera’s tying

27-yard field goal with four seconds left. “We just don’t want to lose our opportunity right here with a young guy,” Texas A&M head coach Kevin Sumlin said. “So we kind of took it out of his hands and ran it and kicked it.” Sumlin said A&M’s win over Arkansas took the entire team but depended on the play of its experienced leaders to come away with a victory. “You talk to them about, hey, look, you have been here before … You need to make some plays and lead us,” Sumlin said. “They don’t just talk about it. You get the opportunity to do something about it, you do it. And obviously those guys did down the stretch.”

and spaces I interact with everyday,” Romack said. “I may be totally blind, but I’m still a very visual, very spatial learner, so having something I can touch and tangibly see the connections between locations is incredibly helpful in navigating our massive campus.” UCEN Associate Director Judy Marrs helped plan placing the map in the MSC and said the map attests to A&M’s inclusiveness. “I think it brings a high level of awareness,” Marrs said. “I think the awareness piece says everyone is welcome to our campus, and we are doing everything we can to make that possible in our facilities.” Lopez said current, former and future stu-

dents and their families will be able to experience campus in a whole new way. “A former [student] tweeted on Twitter that he can’t wait to come back to campus to be able to see this and use it,” Lopez said. “I think this means inclusivity. We are reaching out to a group of people with a special need, and I think that is great.” Wooten hopes other students who see the map will be inspired to continue to find even more ways to include and help fellow Aggies. “There are problems that other people have that you take for granted every day,” Wooten said. “Having something like this, I hope it makes people think. I hope it makes people try to come up with even more ideas.”

CELEBRATING HISPANIC HERITAGE MONTH Events commemorating the month held at Texas A&M

Elaine Mendoza, the vice chairman of the Texas A&M Board of Regents, spoke to the National Hispanic Institute about leadership development.

Hanna Hausman — THE BATTALION

By Katherine Garcia @katiegarcia2018 Hispanic Heritage Month is in full swing and Texas A&M organizations are hosting events to discuss issues, promote student involvement and celebrate Hispanic achievements. According to the Hispanic Heritage Month U.S. government website, Hispanic Heritage week was officially recognized in 1968 and was expanded in 1988 to a full month starting Sept. 15 and ending Oct.15. Mi Casa Es Su Casa, a program by MSC Committee for the Awareness of Mexican American Culture, or MSC CAMAC held its opening ceremony on Tuesday, Sept. 19. The program involves faculty members hosting students at their homes and conversing over a home-cooked meal. Vanessa Carrizales, allied health junior and member of MSC CAMAC said Hispanics tend to create bonds over meal, which is where the idea for Mi Casa Es Su Casa stemmed from.

Carrizales said that when students attend Mi Casa Es Su Casa they may discover they share similar interests and ideas with faculty members, and that these dinners can help students interact with professors in the classroom. As a student who comes from a predominantly Spanish-speaking community, Carrisalez said adjusting to A&M was tough as a freshman. She said she hopes Mi Casa Es Su Casa can create a support system by breaking the barrier between student and faculty. Another event during this week of Hispanic Heritage Month was one on leadership development. The National Hispanic Institute at Texas A&M hosted Elaine Mendoza, vice chairman of Texas A&M Board of Regents. A former student from the class of 1987 and a member of the committee on academic and student affairs for the Board of Regents, Mendoza said she is encouraged by enrollment of students of all diverse backgrounds. Mendoza shared her story of how she eventually became CEO of Sevocity, an electronic health record company she began in 1990. Her main theme of the evening was how she

and her team wanted to make a difference through technology. She explained the trials the team faced and how, without the team, the project may not have succeeded. Mendoza explained to students that her company Sevocity combines the words “seven,” a term used to refer to the divine, and “velocity” to create “Godspeed.” She said this kind of personal inspiration is a reminder of why she is a leader. Mendoza said she wants the next generation of Latino student leaders to carve their own paths and focus on their goals. “What’s important to you, needs to stay important to you,” Mendoza said. “It’s time to step it up.” During the Sept. 20 meeting of the A&M Student Senate, a resolution was passed to recognize Hispanic Heritage Month and show appreciation for the contributions of former and current hispanic students. Presenting the resolution, Senator Luis Moreno, industrial engineering senior, listed the achievements of several notable hispanic Aggies, including Mendoza.

“We extend a thank you and a gratitude to all these former students who are Hispanic that came to our university and did so many great things here but also out in the world,” Moreno said. Next week, the Carlos H. Cantu Hispanic Education and Opportunity Endowment will begin hosting its second annual lecture series that discusses Latinx issues including immigration, DACA, education in the Rio Grande Valley, the home of the endowment’s namesake, and more. Coordinator for the event and doctoral candidate Apolonia Calderon said this lecture series is designed to not only display the issues in the Hispanic community but also celebrate the achievements. As a Rio Grande Valley native, Calderon said she wants Hispanic Texans to create their own identity while still taking pride in their ethnic heritage. Calderon said she hopes that Aggies recognize the contributions made by many different ethnic backgrounds to Texas A&M. “I hope it shows that Hispanics helped pioneer this university,” Calderon said.

Texas Reds Steak and Grape Festival not only showcases wine, beer and steak, but also has live music, multiple food vendors and a kids zone.

11 years of Texas Reds festival TUTORING: FRATERNITY MEMBERS HELP GRADE SCHOOL STUDENTS WITH CLASS WORK.

Local meats and drinks highlighted at annual Downtown Bryan event By Katherine Garcia @katiegarcia2018 Vendors and visitors from around Texas and out-of-state gathered in Downtown Bryan to enjoy some treats, sip some wine and listen to a variety of music last weekend. The Downtown Bryan Association and the City of Bryan held its annual Texas Reds Steak and Grape Festival. According to the its website, the festival featured 25 popular Texas wineries and a steak competition, as well as craft beer vendors and artisans. School psychology graduate student Emily Lund came to Texas Reds with a group to enjoy some wine and learn about local wineries. Lund said there is a different feeling going to a wine festival versus going to a restaurant and ordering a glass of wine. “There’s a sense of community,” Lund said. “These are local wines, so it’s cool to see what’s nearby.” Although Lund said this was only her second festival, she said she is familiar with wine-tasting and seeks familiar wines when she shops. “I like seeing some of the smaller brands. It makes me excited to see some of the labels that I’ve tried in the store,” Lund said. An event featured at Texas Reds was the Bryan Noon Lions Club’s Grape Stomp Competition. According to the Lions web-

KOREA CONTINUED for the North Korean issue. “It’s been like that since I was born, and we don’t feel like there will be any real threat,” Ryun Jung said. “But then here people actually talk about the actual war. I thought, ‘Why are they talking about the war here?’” Weonjin Shin, a third year doctoral student in bilingual education, feels similar to Ryun Jung about the North Korean threat. “It happens a lot. Lots of times North Korea is always threatening in that way, since I was [a child],” Shin said. “We don’t feel that afraid.” But recently Shin said she does feel worried for her parents and younger brother who are living in Seoul, the capital city of South Korea, less than 40 miles from the North-South border. “[My husband and I] are here, we still have family in South Korea, and they are all living in the capital city, and I am really worried about that,” Shin said. “They are worried about it but they didn’t have any option. They have their lives there, so they can’t leave South Korea.” Shin’s grandmother was evacuated from the North during the Korean War, which erupted in 1950 and cemented the countries as North and South. She was never able to return or re-establish contact with her parents who had remained in the North. “Until she died she [had] never been to North Korea,” Shin said. “She always [missed] her hometown and everything. A lot of people are separated because the war happened. My grandma, she didn’t even know whether her parents [were] alive.”

site, Grape Stomp has been part of the festival since it began in 2007. The teams consisted of two people, and according to the Lions, the competition had the ability to facilitate 116 heats of grape stomping. 30 Lions Club members were running the event and around 12 A&M students volunteered as well, according to Lions Club member Bernie Acre. According to the organization, one hundred percent of the Grape Stomp Competition’s proceeds went to over 17 different non-profits, including the Brazos Food Bank, Lions KidSight USA, Bryan Independent School District and more. “Everything goes back into the community,” Acre said. Although labeled as a wine festival, Texas Reds also featured local beer vendors. Ryan Campbell, a sales representative for New Republic Brewing, displayed one of his beers, “Ale Mary,” which was in cooperation with St. Mary’s Catholic Church on Northgate in commemoration of its 100th anniversary. “The pro-tip of the day is come to the beer tent,” Campbell said. “On a hot day like this, everyone wants the beer.” As the oldest brewing company in Bryan-College Station, New Republic Brewing customers get excited for the company to appear at festivals, according to Campbell. “You can’t look past Texas Reds,” Campbell said. “It’s almost like a playoff game, in football terms. It’s a big deal.” Juhno Lee is a Ph.D. candidate in the department of civil engineering and was a research engineer in South Korea before coming to the U.S. Like Shin, Juhno also has family in Seoul, including his parents and his sister. After studying at A&M for three years, Juhno said he noticed that the American news media pays more attention to the North Korean missile crisis than the South Korean news media does. He attributes this to the fact that South Koreans are generally more concerned with other topics, like domestic politics. “Maybe CNN or Fox News here gets more details [about the North Korean issue], because in South Korea we are struggling with some kind of political issues,” Juhno said. Kyungho Jeon, a doctoral student in geology, said he began to take the North Korean threat more seriously after coming to the U.S. in high school. “While living in Seoul during my childhood, I did not have much fear or interest in the conflict,” Jeon said. “It was after I moved to the U.S. while in high school that I came to appreciate the distinctions of the fundamental values that the two Koreas have. I came to realize that the threat from the North is reality.” Even though the threat is real, Ryun Jung said that if South Koreans were constantly thinking about each next step North Korea takes, they would not be able to lead peaceful, prosperous lives. “I don’t want to say we don’t care or we don’t worry, I mean we do worry,” Ryun Jung said. “But we are not carrying that fear everyday.”
