IFC, Panhellenic keep first years at arm’s length BY ALEX WEILHAMMER news@thedepauw.com
Like many classes before them, first-years will have to wait until they can step foot on Greek property. The Interfraternity Council (IFC) released a statement titled “A Return to Values Based Recruitment,” and it declares that, during the first four weeks of school, “First Year students will not be allowed on Greek property at any time.” Libby Warren, president of the Panhellenic Executive Board, said, “We have no say in that date whatsoever. The Panhellenic Association has its own rules for first years. Panhellenic’s “Recruitment Policies” from the 2012 -2013 school year states, “No first-year student is permitted to attend a sorority social function until Formal Recruitment is complete. This includes, but is not limited to, formals, in-formals, holiday parties, sisterhood activities, or co-sponsored Greek events.”
It’s important to note greek property extends beyond mere chapter houses. Panhellenic’s policy states, “If 50% of the residents of a group of students living in University Owned Apartments and Houses or Rector Village belong to the Panhellenic community, that housing is considered greek property, and first-years are not allowed on this property until sorority open hours.” According to IFC, in the week leading up to fall break, “First-year students will be allowed on greek property from 7 a.m. to 9 p.m. These times will apply to Sunday through Thursday only. Fridays and Saturdays will still be off-limits to first-year students.” After fall break, first-years will be allowed to attend registered events. During this time, fraternities and sororities will often invite freshmen to meals at the chapter house. Panhellenic offers two open houses this semester: the Family Weekend Open House on Sept. 27 and the Panhellenic Open House on Oct. 11. These casual, lowstress interactions allow first-years to develop meaning-
ful relationships with both Greek members and their respective freshmen class. Warren added, “The deferred recruitment gives time for people to decide what they want [out of Greek life] and not feel pressured.” C.J. Cazee, IFC’s Vice President of Communication, strongly supports the rule as well. “You’re going to get closer to your floormates, your mentor groups, and to your classmates in general,” Cazee said. “That’s” going to build those relationships that are going to last throughout these four years [at DePauw] and for a lifetime after that.” “It’s their first five weeks of college,” said Jim Perry, president of the IFC Executive board. “There’s no need, especially with recruitment second semester, to throw freshmen into the fire. Let them acclimate to the [Greek] culture [and to] their classes and their schedules. Perry said first-years will be allowed on greek property as of Oct. 11.

“I think ALS awareness is good, but wasting water is bad,” said junior Stephen Shannon. “I feel like the ice bucket eclipses the importance of the awareness.” Sophomore Michael Arnould feels
similarly. “Even if the challenge may seem vain, it’s still for a good cause at the end of the day,” Arnould said. But Youtuber Anthony Carbajal had a different response to the ice bucket

Welch Fitness Center restricted hours finished BY NICOLE DECRISCIO news@thedepauw.com
Before classes started, those seeking to test out the new Welch Fitness Center had limited hours to do so. The facility, which closes at 11 p.m. throughout the school year, closed at 6 p.m. After a walk through on Aug. 10, Athletic Director Stevie Baker-Watson said that they had determined that the building was in a condition that allowed them to open the new fitness center. “We needed to balance our needs, which was we needed to get in there and see what it’s like,” Baker-Watson said. “We also need to balance the fact that we had active construction going on and people doing repairs.” However, with fewer students on campus before opening day, the athletics department had to find a way to staff the fitness center. “We didn’t have student workers,” said Asaundra Pickett, assistant director of the Welch Fitness Center. Instead, the fitness center was staffed by members of the athletic department and coaches and was open under restricted hours. The restricted hours provided the department with the ability to allow students and faculty the opportunity to try the new fitness center while meeting

staffing needs. “Everyone was pretty understanding,” Pickett said. “The greatest comment was, “Wow I really have to hustle to get myself out of my office by 4:30 or 5 o’clock so I can come over and exercise by the time it closes at 6,’” Baker-Watson said. “I’m not aware of anybody who came to us and was upset at those hours.” The fitness center has returned to normal hours of 6 a.m. to 11 p.m. Monday through Friday and 8 a.m. to 11 p.m. on Saturday and Sunday. “We’ve been hearing mostly positive feedback now that we’re open full time,” Pickett said. Baker-Watson said that the new fitness center is meeting student’s needs. “Yesterday at 4:30, every single piece of cardio equipment was actually being used, which thats over 50 pieces,” BakerWatson said. This number did not include those lifting weights. In comparison, at peak fitness times at the old facility, Baker-Watson estimates that there would be approximately 65 people using the facility at one time. Junior Sarah Cho, noted that the times did not always work around the women’s soccer team’s two-a-day practices. “I didn’t [have problems with the hours],” Cho said, “but some of my teammates did.”

Since the ALS Ice Bucket Challenge went viral over midsummer, awareness and donations for the life devastating disease have skyrocketed. As of Tuesday, Aug. 26, the ALS Association website declared that $88.5 million has been raised thanks to the help of 1.9 million new donors. In the same July 29 to Aug. 26 time period last year, the association raised only $2.6 million. ALS (Amyotrophic lateral sclerosis) is a crippling disease that slowly wipes out the motor neurons in the brain and spine. Gradually, the terminal illness completely cuts all connections from neurons to muscles and paralyzes the body. Patients will eventually need help to breathe from respiratory machines. ALS is also called Lou Gehrig’s disease after the famous baseball player, Lou Gehrig, was diagnosed with ALS in the 1930s. Even though the disease has been in the mainstream for decades, scientists have still not found a cure nor proper treatment for ALS. With the ice bucket challenge, many are trying to change that. The premise of the challenge is for participants to either film themselves dumping ice water on their head or donate to an ALS-related cause. Although the origins of the challenge can’t be traced, the challenge initially picked up momentum when Matt Lauer, anchor for NBC’s Today Show, performed the challenge on air on July 15. The challenge has since spread to hundreds of celebrities and millions of social media users. However, many critique the challenge, saying too many participants opt out of donating, and dumping ice water on their heads doesn’t help the cause.
challenge. Carabajal, 26, was diagnosed with ALS in January earlier this year. His mom is suffering from ALS, and his grandmother passed away from the disease as well. In his video, “Young man with ALS heartbreaking response to Ice Bucket Challenge” from the channel “bizitoto *HD*,” Carabajal discusses his terrifying experience with ALS. Citing that only 30,000 people in the U.S. suffer from ALS, he expresses his frustration with pharmaceutical companies that don’t invest enough money in ALS research, simply because it isn’t “profitable.” Carabajal said that “ALS is so, so f****** scary” as he describes what facing down the disease is like. He then says some very positive remarks about the Ice Bucket Challenge. “This is the first successful advocacy we’ve ever really had,” said Carabajal. “Every single challenge...lifts my spirits [and] lifts every single ALS patient’s spirits. You are really truly making a difference and we are so, so grateful.” But Carabajal isn’t the only one grateful for the donations. According to President and CEO of the ALS Association, Barbara Newhouse, the association is incredibly thankful for the donations and working diligently to allocate the copious funds. “This isn’t a matter of spending these dollars quickly,” said Newhouse. “It’s a matter of investing these dollars prudently to achieve maximum impact in our quest to help people living with the disease and those yet to be diagnosed.” Donations can be made to ALS research at alsa.org and als.net; however, patrons are encouraged to research where they contribute because some donations might go towards stem cell research.

Summer crime plagues the Inn BY LEAH WILLIAMS news@thedepauw.com
On May 25, 2014, an incident at the Inn at DePauw stopped students’ schedules and halted any guests’ plans. “An employee was approached by a man she did not know in an isolated area,” said Angela Nally, Director of Public Safety at DePauw University. He attempted to assault her, heard a noise, and, it is believed, became concerned that someone was coming and cut the employee with a small knife he possessed. He took several personal items from her purse, including a cell phone, and left. Public Safety was called. Greencastle City Police and the sheriff’s office also responded. “We had to do a room-by-room, floor-by-floor search,” said Nally. The suspect was apprehended within about an hour of Public Safety receiving the call. He was found near Indiana Street and Hanna Street. “She didn’t suffer any life-threatening injuries,” said Nally. “It was really quite a concerning situation, and we were grateful for the support of our other law enforcement agencies. This was a major emergency.” This was a unique instance; however, Public Safety normally deals with smaller crimes and student safety.

“We do emergency preparedness exercises,” said Nally. “They practice for situations like this, shooters, thefts, and other such situations.” During the incident at The Inn at DePauw, Public Safety sent out alerts to students to stay where they were and to avoid The Inn. They informed the guests that there was a dangerous situation and that they needed to stay in their rooms until it was resolved. “Everyone was cooperative and understood that we had some things that we needed to get done,” said Nally. “The thing that we want to do is encourage students to prioritize their personal safety [in situations like that].” Public Safety generally sends out one of two messages to students during emergencies: either stay where they are (sheltering) or to evacuate an area. This case would have sent a warning to shelter. “This situation would have been much different during the school year,” said Nally, stating that the entire school would have gone on lock down. Sometimes, people want to go to the scene out of curiosity, but that is dangerous. Public Safety encourages students to be aware of such possibilities. Nally urges students to heed Public Safety’s warnings and avoid the location of a potentially dangerous situation.

The year has just begun, and the Kathryn F. Hubbard Center for Student Engagement - also known as the Hubbard Center - has already started working with students. The Hubbard Center was designed to assist students in succeeding, particularly outside of DePauw Univeristy. “Our goal is to help students develop a variety of options so that when they graduate, they have choices,” said Dean of Experimental Learning and Career Planning Raj Bellani. On a day-to-day basis, the Hubbard Center is available to help students craft resumes, organize their off-campus studies and plan for their future. How-

Hubbard Center kicks off the year with programming for first-years and sophomores with more in the works BY LEAH WILLIAMS

Kareem Edwards, DePauw class of 2007, spoke in Kresge Auditorium. Edwards talked about his time before, during and after DePauw, and how DePauw helped him throughout his life. He especially emphasized the personal relationships he developed with professors. “They care about your interests,” Edwards said. “They believe in you; you should believe in yourselves.” Before taking questions from the audience, he concluded with four pieces of advice: meet new people, make a plan—
but don’t worry if it changes, take risks and remember to wear shoes during your boulder run. The students appeared to enjoy Edwards. First-year Sarah Pearson remarked afterwards, “I thought he really connected with the students.” First-year Amanda Brown appreciated how relatable he was. “I like how they bring in alumni because he literally sat where we sat. And he had some really good advice,” she said. The Hubbard Center organized another recent event, the Sophomore Institute. On Aug. 25, sophomores who had signed up spent the day at The Inn at DePauw learning to organize and plan their futures, both at DePauw and beyond.

Lazarreto: Close to perfect Luc Besson’s French
sci-fi thriller falls short BY TYLER MURPHY features@thedepauw.com
BY BRIAN AUSTIN WGRE DIRECTOR OF MUSIC features@thedepauw.com
In Nick Hornby’s “High Fidelity,” record storeowner Rob Fleming prides himself on his mastery of the intricacies and seduction that go into creating the perfect mix. A mix that starts off hot but cools down by the third track can keep your attention as it builds back up, and it must flutter between genre and intensity before the final finish. Musicians can spend weeks trying to form the perfect track list for an album. I imagine Jack White takes a few years to create his albums. His sophomore solo album “Lazaretto” released at #1 on Billboard 200 in June. Just two years ago, White debuted at #1 as a solo artist with “Blunderbuss” after years of playing in The White Stripes, The Raconteurs and The Dead Weather. “Blunderbuss” showed amazing promise with crowd pleasers like ‘Sixteen Saltines,’ ‘Love Interruption’ and ‘I’m Shaking.’ The album wove in and out of blues, country and rock while still holding that classic Jack White charm. “Lazaretto” is the very same way. The first track, ‘Three Women,’ begins with instrumentals until White starts belting blues lyrics. The drums combine blues and funk to mask Jack’s blues opening and wailing guitar solos to prepare for the single ‘Lazaretto.’ The title track begins with a bass riff that is repeated throughout the song. Funky drums come in, and it almost sounds like ‘I’m Shaking’ from his debut. Although every song does not have a solo, the tracks that do will blow your mind. White seems to pay homage to his first band, The White Stripes, with his solo in the title track. It goes back to his classic style of high-pitched, industrial yet spastic style. After the title track, White slows down to play a classic country song with ‘Temporary Ground.’ He then builds back before playing ‘High Ball
Stepper,’ the rock song featured on many FIFA World Cup promotions this summer. Through expert musicianship, White was able to create the best album of the summer for the second time in his career as a solo artist. The album uses many backup musicians and vocalists. Violins and harps compliment the classic bassdrums-guitar setup while a little acoustic guitar and piano show up in many of the songs as well. White shows bits and pieces of each of his projects in “Lazaretto.” Some songs show the raw power and psychosis in his guitar solos that match The Dead Weather’s or The White Stripes’ earlier albums. Meanwhile, other songs like ‘Alone In My Home’ and ‘Entitlement’ sound like they were recorded for The White Stripes’ “Get Behind Me Satan” record. White’s musicianship and charm draw us in to hear his brutally honest lyrics. He talks about inadequacy and heartbreak yet still pushes us to a higher standard as listeners. It is uncommon for an artist to make two albums in a row that go #1, but Jack White is one of a kind, and I can’t wait to see what else he has planned.

“Lucy,” directed, written and edited by Luc Besson came out earlier this summer, but just hit the screen at the Ashley Square Cinema. The film, a French Sci-fi, made great bounds at the box office on its release, beating out Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson’s “Hercules” and earning an astounding $17,088,110 on the opening weekend. The story follows Scarlett Johansson’s character, Lucy, a happy-go-lucky girl that gets tricked into becoming a drug mule for her boyfriend. This is where things start to get tricky and turn from a realist film to complete science fiction. A series of events lead to her having a bag of drugs sewn into her abdomen, but she is kicked in the stomach and the drugs leak into her blood stream. This unlocks parts of her brain that have yet to be discovered, giving her powers such as telekinesis, telepathy and mental time travel. Her new abilities cause her personality to change and she kills many people around her. Eventually, she discovers the locations of three other drug mules with the drugs sewn in them as well. All the while Morgan Freeman’s character is basically narrating the plot and keeping the viewer in on important lines they may have missed. At one point, the film acquires more of a video game feel, as Lucy seeks the remaining three drug mules, for a reason basically unknown to the viewer. It feels more like the hero in a game who must travel from island to island looking for some kind of gem. The entire film is chocked full of action and graphics, but aside from that the plot has many holes and is very hard to believe. What saves it is Scarlett Johansson’s performance. Her ability to basically play two completely different characters from the start of the film to
PHOTO COURTESY OF SCREENRANT.COM the end is breathlessly executed and fun to watch. All of the action reminded me of a Michael Bay film, except that the plot was actually new and felt fresh, not just robots fighting each other and breaking buildings. Make sure, however, that you don’t go into the theater expecting a realistic or even semirealistic science fiction. The plot quickly turns very unbelievable and has many pointless fight scenes with guns, are unrealistic since Lucy can kill multiple people with just a snap of her finger. The ending is extremely unique to put it nicely. It takes a completely different turn than expected, but ends up feeling more like you just watched an entire movie just to have a message on the meaning of life shoved down your throat. I would not recommend paying to see the film, however, since it is free to DePauw students I would say it would be worth the trip to Ashley Square if you were looking for something to do.

Six young musicians clad in red and gray letterman’s jackets took to the stage in Kresge Auditorium this past Sunday. The Filharmonic, composed of Barry Fortgang (Tenor 1 and 2), Joe Caigoy (Tenor 1 or 2), Jules Cruz (Bass), VJ Rosales (Tenor 1 or 2), Niko Del Ray (beat boxer) and Trace Gaynor (Tenor 3), is an all-male a cappella boy band based out of Los Angeles. Most recently, they are known for being contestants on NBC’s The Sing-Off! Although the boys only placed fourth on the show, they were given the opportunity to travel the country while performing on The Sing Off Live Tour and have continued touring schools throughout the country. The Filharmonic’s performance on Sunday was filled with high energy, cheering fans, and their own spunky t wist on popular songs and old favorites.
TDP: First off, how did the show go? Have you ever had a crowd jump out of their seats and run to the stage? VR: I’ve never ever had a show where people run in a herd. It’s crazy. People were screaming, and it was so loud and so much fun. TG: It was in the middle of when we were performing “Treasure,” everyone started to stand up and dance. My favorite part of the performance was when everyone flooded the stage. TDP: Were you expecting that kind of reaction? JC: I don’t know what I was expecting. I knew it was a university, so they could have either been totally into it or they just wouldn’t care. It was great. I was not expecting them to get up out of their seats and sprint to the stage. We’ve been in theaters before, and all they’ve done is just dance in their seats, but the students here actually came up to us. The energy was definitely up there. It was unbelievable. NDR: We came here, and there was no one on campus. We were actually scared that no one was going to show up. I was talking to Barry about how it looked like a scene from the Walking Dead. There were only cars parked, but no one on campus. It was kind of creepy. Then when the concert happened, it was crazy. People were trying to buy our hats from us and trying to grab everything they could from us.
FRIDAY , AUGUST 29, 2014
TDP: The set list that you sang for us tonight ranged from a variety of different genres. Is there a favorite song that you love to perform? TG: My favorite song is “Rock With You.” Tonight was actually the first time we performed it live. NDR: I love “One More Night.” It’s the song that we usually close with because the music and choreography make people want to get off their feet. They also see us doing these aerobic, pelvic motions, and then for some reason, people start cheering, and everyone loves it. BF: I would have to go with “All of Me” as my favorite song. It’s just something different from what we normally do. There’s no beat boxing, so we are all singing. It’s the one I feel closest to in my heart, and John Legend is my hero. TDP: The beat boxer is a huge role in an a cappella group. How did you get started? NDR: I got into beatboxing because I would love breakdancing all the time, but then my mom would come in to my room and be like, ‘Hey, it’s midnight. You can’t dance anymore.’ So I just tried beatboxing to myself, and then I joined a group at Mt. San Antonio College with Jules and Joe because they needed a beatboxer. I am really competitive, so I tried getting better and learning more. Then when we did the sing-off, there were groups with really good beat boxers, so I got even more competitive and slowly progressed to where I am today. It’s not that hard. It’s all about practing. At first, it’s difficult because your mind is focusing on one thing while your feet are doing another, but after a while, you get into this groove.
TDP: You’ve been together since The Sing-Off. How did you all form a group? JC: A few of us went to school together. Me, Niko and Joey went to school together in California with Avi Kaplan from the Pentatonix. They had won the Sing-Off before, so they contacted us and told us the show was coming back for a fourth season, and so we found the rest of the guys to form a group from past competitions in the LA area. It’s been awesome.
At the end of their performance, The Filharmonic’s six-part harmonies captured the hearts and souls of the students at DePauw enough to end in an unplanned encore of Aerosmith’s “I Don’t Want to Miss a Thing.” To hear more from the Filharmonic, be sure to check out their cameo in “Pitch Perfect 2,” which premieres May 15, 2015.
TDP: The Filharmonic is going to be making a debut in the upcoming movie “Pitch Perfect 2.” How did you guys get a gig like that? BF: When we were on the Sing-Off, one of the music producers was the music producer for Pitch Perfect. They were trying to figure out who it would be in the movie, so he texted Jules and was like, ‘Would you guys want to maybe be in the movie?’ We obviously said yes. TDP: Are you excited for the premiere? BF: Definitely, it’s one of our favorite movies. Personally, it’s what I would want my life to be like all the time. When we found out we were in the movie, we were pretty much dying. When we went to shoot, we met a couple of people from the cast, which was pretty amazing. It was such a great experience.

Ice Bucket Challenge: Will the donations last, once the ‘likes’ stop? More than likely, we’ve all seen videos on Facebook of people dumping a bucket of ice water over their heads. Before mid-summer 2014, we would have laughed at these people and their strange new way of cooling off. Now we call it the ALS Ice Bucket Challenge. ALS (amyotrophic lateral sclerosis), also known as Lou Gehrig’s disease, attacks people’s ability to control their muscles. Currently, ALS can be treated, but it cannot be cured. This is where the Ice Bucket Challenge enters. Pete Frates, an ALS patient and former baseball star, began the Ice Bucket Challenge to raise funds for the ALS Association (ALSA) and its search for a cure. Since the challenge went viral, the ALSA has gained 1.9 million new donors and raised $88.5 million dollars, which is $85.9 million more they raised during the same period last year. The ALSA estimates that 30,000 Americans suffer from ALS. Our total population is 319 million, according to the U.S. Census Bureau. With numbers like that, this editorial board has to ask why the Ice Bucket Challenge was able to galvanize such a huge response for a disease that affects less than .5 percent of our population. We think it’s because the Ice Bucket Challenge turns caring about ALS into a game. Participants get to do something abnormal, post it to Facebook and challenge their friends. As the challenge gained popularity, people raced to challenge others. Turning worthy causes into games to raise money is nothing foreign to DePauw University’s community. Think about the greek community’s fundraising events. Almost every one is centered around a competition of some kind. Clearly, asking others to participate in a competition is an effective way to raise money. Everyone knows it’s important to help others, and we see people daily trying to do so in small ways. If people can help each other on a small scale without it feeling like a game, it shouldn’t take one to spark a large-scale reaction to a cause that could save lives and lessen suffering. Although this editorial board is delighted to see so much money and effort put towards a good cause, we find it troubling that it takes some sort of game to get people actively engaged with a cause. We’d hope that in the future those 1.9 million new donors will continue to care and support humanitarian causes without the incentive of a couple Facebook likes. -Kevin Killeen, chief copy editor, did not contribute to this editorial. email us at edboard@thedepauw.com

Speculation and the declining impressiveness of iPhones JACKSON MOTE
O
n Thursday, Apple issued media invitations to an event at the Flint Center for Performing at De Anza College in Cupertino on Sept. 9. The invitation carried with it the tagline, “Wish we could say more.” This made me happy, because I await the arrival of new Apple products every year; yet I’m still wary to speculate on the contents of the event itself. Some say it’s the iPhone 6, others claim it’s the iWatch, others say it’s iOS 8 and some say that maybe it’s even all three. I say who cares. The event is a little over a week away, so why indulge in unsubstantiated rumors when, with a little patience, you will soon find out the magical revelations Apple plans to show us? I’ve found that, while speculation about Apple products can be fun, it is often minimally valid and only serves to suggest a vague glimpse of what might be revealed come the day of the event. Speculating about the features of a new iPhone will not bring the iPhone any closer to being in your hand. It will also not likely sway Tim Cook in his opinion of what the newest iPhone should contain or be able to do. Neither will such conjecture allow us to see a legitimate sneak peek behind the actual product. Speculation serves as a tool for non-official Apple websites to gain more traffic on their advertisements. It can also serve to hype up the actual product in speculation. I am a believer of the idea that speculation does more harm than good.
Now that I’ve set my opinion forth regarding speculation, I’d like to share what I believe needs to happen for Apple to maintain relevancy. Apple has coasted by for far too long by releasing the “S” version of the iPhone every other year. Being a fan of Apple can be extremely disappointing when a new design only comes once every two years. It’s reasonable to say that we want something more. Samsung Galaxy S5’s are dust and water-resistant while it seems as if the best protection available to the average iPhone user is the LifeProof case. It is clear that the technology to further innovate iPhones could be made yet we have still to see a truly advanced iPhone materialize. I’m not speculating as to whether the aforementioned features will be included in an upcoming iPhone. I’m only setting an example of how iPhones could be much more than they are. The capability for iPhones to be truly advanced is a realistic vision, and I hope that we will see features and their benefits that will highly impress us this year. The supporters of other phones often ridicule Apple fans. This does not stop us from wanting more from our devices. Actually, it fuels our passion. We want Apple to wow us. We want them to remind us why we love Apple. We want the innovation and mystery that came with the products designed under the direction of Steve Jobs. Apple fans love Apple products; that is a fact. But we want more out of our devices. Without speculation: Apple please show us something that we have never seen. -Mote is a junior French major from Indianapolis. opinions@thedepauw.com

everal major events fed into the media the past few weeks. There’s the conflict between Israel and Hamas in Gaza, the killing of Michael Brown and the following protests, and the Islamic State of Iraq and Greater Syria. Even the ice bucket challenge has sparked commentary and controversy. It’s great that so many people actually pay attention to these events and think about them. As educated students, we need to be a part of those discussions. But we also need to be informed about these major events before broadcasting opinions about them. I know; I know. “It’s the world of social media, Leeann. I’m entitled to broadcast my opinion!” Okay, yes, you can do whatever you want on your Facebook and Twitter accounts. But strongly agreeing or disagreeing on a topic without facts to sup-
port that view does more harm than good. The Internet that we love so much does more than just divulge what your sister ate for breakfast and who won last night’s baseball game. It also tells you where the Gaza Strip is, just what ISIS stands for and why Ferguson is so angry about the death of an eighteen-year-old male. Once you get started, you can’t stop. You won’t stop. There’s a myriad of information about any current event in which you might be interested. Only when supplied with an arsenal of information will you be able to form a clear opinion on a topic. Rushing to hasty conclusions based on another person’s opinion or an article you saw on Facebook only perpetrates irregularities and falsehoods. When you have facts to back-up your opinion, you can do something about it. Explaining to your friends why you think the ALS Ice Bucket Challenge is a detriment to other charities will go over better if you can point to specific reasons why you’ve come to that conclusion. You’re more likely to persuade them and gain respect that way. It’s what DePauw continuously tries to teach us. Take in the information, develop your thoughts and opinions on it and then explain your position (either by writing or speaking). Critical thinking isn’t just for the classroom; it’s for the real world,
too. I love to be right. However, college has taught me that being right is not the most important thing. My friends, not only my professors, taught me the greater importance of learning more. It’s much better to be educated and able to support a position than to simply be right. Looking at an event’s face value is good on some level. You’re engaging in the world around you and acknowledging there’s more to life than what happens in Greencastle. But that’s not enough. Claiming how evil you think ISIS is does nothing when you can’t explain why. Just as a professor won’t accept a paper without any evidence, the real world (and, if you’re lucky, your peers) won’t accept your opinion if there’s not any thinking behind it. So the next time a major current event catches your attention, turn to Google before you turn to Twitter. Information makes life so much more interesting and gives you the power to go out and do something about the causes and situations important to you. - Sausser is a junior English writing and history double major from Indianapolis.

GMOs: A blessing and a burden all-in-one SCOTT LOCKWOOD
I
magine a world free of toxic pesticides and full of nutritional, resilient crops to feed the entire human population. Conversely, picture ecosystems demolished by uncontrollable, herbicide-resistant “super” weeds and the human population starving from detrimental decreases in food production. Both images represent the opposing ends of the spectrum of Earth’s future as scientists delve deeper into the creation of GMOs (genetically modified organisms). GMOs are crops or livestock that have had their DNA genetically engineered. DNA fragments containing the codes to produce a pesticide or survive harsh, dry conditions are spliced from other organisms into the existing natural code. Scientists can now create new forms of preexisting organisms with greater adaptabilities that may have never hap-
pened otherwise. Crops can be engineered to produce a natural herbicide, reducing the amount of chemicals farmers must purchase and distribute across their fields. There are genetically modified salmon that grow to three times the weight of its wild counterpart in the same timeframe, helping reduce overfishing. Golden rice is the quintessential example of a GMO. Rice on its own lacks significant nutritional value, specifically in vitamin A, but serves as the staple crop for over 100 countries. Thus, vitamin A deficiency has affected hundreds of millions of children, causing irreversible cases of blindness and death, in many of the countries dependent on rice as the main staple crop. Golden rice has been genetically engineered to produce beta-carotene, a precursor for Vitamin A, to solve the problem. While the most nutritious strain of golden rice is still in development, the utilization of this crop could combat a global health issue. However, GMO’s aren’t a perfect solution. Scientists are able to modify crops to resist herbicide. Instead of having to spot-treat the weeds to protect their crops, farmers can spray their fields with herbicide. The upkeep cost for the field drops as farmers need less herbicide, and the fields can grow stronger due to lack of competition.
However, these genetically modified plants can cross-breed in the field with weeds, creating super weeds. These super weeds are now also resistant to the common herbicides that the farmers use. As they reproduce with other weeds of their species, the herbicide resistance spreads further. Suddenly, farmers can no longer use the herbicide they once relied on, and the weeds can easily out-compete the crops. After the whole process of genetic modification and implementation, farmers are left with much bigger problems than originally. GMO’s provide enough hard evidence to create an argument to support or attack their development. There also remains the cultural argument where people are uneasy eating food that has been genetically altered because GMOs are no longer ‘organic’ or ‘natural.’ They are inevitable for the future of human civilization and our ever-growing population. With more time and research, the benefits will grow, and the deficits will shrink until the implementation of GMOs is a no-brainer. -Lockwood is a junior math and biology double major from Indianapolis.

Men's soccer with pair of tough tests to open season BY JACOB LYNN sports@thedepauw.com
When Andy Morrison and the rest of the DePauw University men’s soccer team get off the bus at Ohio Northern University in Ada, Ohio for a pair of games, it will be like any normal weekend. Except this one is a little different. Morrison, one of the top goal scorers in DePauw history, is setting off to begin his fourth and final season with the Tigers. Through his first three seasons, Morrison sits just 12 goals shy of setting the schools record for career goals. That mark was set between 1998 and 2001 by J.R. Foster who found the back of the net 48 times in his four years with the Tigers. Morrison’s pursuit of that record began in 2011 as a first-year when he scored 10 times. He then fol-
lowed that up with 12 goals his sophomore season and a career high 14 goals last year. Now as his time at DePauw begins to end, Morrison has one more year to mentor the player who could be the next great goal scorer at DePauw, sophomore Julian Gonzalez. As a first-year last season, Gonzalez matched all of Morrison’s tallies as he scored 14 times and helped the Tigers to a 14-2-3 record. “Andy has been an exceptional role model on and off the field for the last two years,” Gonzalez said. The fondness is mutual. “I have always had a great relationship with Julian,” Morrison said. “We have many dangerous forwards this year, and I anticipate the goals to come in bunches.” Another year of experience for both of those players will go a long way to help the Tigers as they
open their season this weekend with games against John Carroll University on Friday and Ohio Northern University Saturday. The Tigers don’t have any history with either of the schools and are going into the set of games without much information. DePauw does know that the Polar Bears of ONU were ranked 23rd in the NCAA Division III preseason coaches poll. “John Carroll and Ohio Northern are both going to be top ranked conference and regional teams, so we know we have to get maximum results to help us for the NCAA championship,” Gonzalez said referring to the need to bolster their resume before selection for the NCAA tournament. Wins won’t come easy, however, as John Carroll went 15-4-1 a season ago and ONU is coming off of an 18-4 year. Things don’t get any better for the Tigers as they then face road tests against Franklin College
and Principia College before they finally take on Hanover College in the home opener on Sept. 10. “I personally have scored more goals in my career on the road than at home,” Morrison said. “Also, last season, we had a better away record.” Gonzalez agrees that the team excels off Boswell Field. “We do really well playing away games,” Gonzalez said. “I feel like we do better playing from more of an underdog role.” Even with a difficult start ahead of them, the players are pleased to finally get the season going and have the games count for something. “I am very excited to get everything underway,” Morrison said. “We have a special opportunity to do some things no other DePauw men’s soccer team has done before us.”

DePauw Football works to get through transitional season BY JACOB LYNN sports@thedepauw.com
W
hen the North Coast Athletic Conference released its preseason coaches’ poll for football last week, I was pleased to see the DePauw University Tigers right were they should be: in the middle of the pack at No. five. It’s easy to feel optimistic about the 2014 edition of Tigers football. The team won four of its last six games and discovered a gem of a quarterback, making it easy for fans to feel confident about this season. But I’m here with a message to Tiger fans: be cautiously optimistic about DePauw football this year. Tigers’ football should be better than a year ago, but fans shouldn’t expect them to be lightyears ahead of where they finished last season. True, the underclassmen will have had an entire calendar year in Head Coach Bill Lynch’s system and a summer to get into shape. Returning players will add leadership to a team loaded with first-years and sophomores. Even with all of this, however, they still aren’t ready to compete with the giants of the NCAC like Wittenberg Uni-
versity, and yes, Wabash College. They still have an inexperienced team and some hurdles to jump through, especially sophomore quarterback Matt Hunt. Hunt put up big numbers last year in his first season in Greencastle, Indiana. He came just shy of throwing for 2000 yards, and he tossed 17 touchdowns and only three interceptions. For Hunt, 2014 will be different because he lost Barry Flynn, his favorite target. Flynn’s sixfoot-five-inch frame gave Hunt a big target to throw to downfield. This year, the Tigers are going to have to find someone to replace Flynn’s 889 receiving yards and 10 touchdowns. Another factor against Hunt is the dreaded sophomore slump. It’s cliché but it’s true: quarterbacks who put up big numbers in their first season traditionally see a setback in their second year. Last year, Hunt came into training camp as just another guy fighting for a spot on the team. When he took the field, opponents didn’t know much about him. Going into this season, however, the competition has film on Hunt and will know all of his tendencies. His ability to adjust to the other teams’ knowledge will be a key factor in

how this season turns out for the Tigers. The competition the Tigers will face in the NCAC is still incredibly fierce. The four teams ahead of the Tigers in preseason rankings defeated DePauw last year. Wabash and Wittenberg were the class of the conference last fall and will likely remain there. The two other schools ranked ahead of the Tigers, Denison University and the College of Wooster, will have improved for 2014 as well, making gaining any ground difficult for the Tigers. This is tough to hear right now, but the Tigers may not always start the season this way. The team has been building for the future. Lynch has brought in a massive class of first-years that features over 40 players, allowing him to create a junior varsity squad. The new squad will help the Tigers exponentially in the years to come because it gives younger players a chance to gain game experience before hitting the varsity field. In the end, I see this season as one more transition year for the Tigers. They’ll use this year to grow and gain experience, but might not win more than five games. And that’s fine. This year should be all about growing for the future.

Replacing Sanson, Flynn not so easy for DePauw football BY JACOB LYNN
Two thousand one hundred and eighteen yards. That’s the offensive output that running back Nikko Sansone and wide receiver Barry Flynn accumulated last season. With them out of the picture because of graduation, the Tigers will have to look elsewhere to find playmakers this Fall. Because of this, things will be radically different for sophomore quarterback, Matt Hunt when
he lines up against The University of the South at Sewanee in less than two weeks. “In my first year, having those guys who have played in big games and been in critical situations, it was huge to have them,” Hunt said. Instead of looking to his right and seeing Flynn’s massive 6-foot-5 frame, Hunt will likely be in the shotgun, staring at three or four wide receivers and only five down linemen. And now with Sansone gone, the Tigers will look to junior running back Amen Galley to carry the majority of the workload.
“I have what it takes to be an all-conference running back, but what's really important is helping my team succeed,” a confident Galley said. “Personal accolades are just a bonus.” The good news for the Tigers coming into this year is that both Hunt and Galley have experience to draw upon. Last season Hunt burst onto the scene in his first year on the field. His 1871 yards passing with 17 touchdowns and only three interceptions have been well chronicled. Galley, however, is a little bit more of an un-

known. His numbers weren’t quite as spectacular as he fell third on the depth chart behind Sansone’s backup, Armani Cato, who was also lost to graduation. Even when he was in the game, Galley didn’t set the world on fire. He averaged less than four yards per rushing attempt and didn’t find the endzone. “I feel like the past two years of sharing reps with Cato and Nikko have really prepared me to take on the lead role,” Galley said. So now when Hunt is under center, he’ll see a new receiving core out wide, a new tailback behind him, and also a new lineman in front of him. That was supposed to be one of the few things that remained constant for the second-year quarterback. The Tigers were going to rely on the fact that all five of their starting offensive linemen from a year ago would be returning for this season. They are all back, but senior Craig Neece has made the transition from left tackle to defensive end with the goal of shoring up a defense that allowed over 150 rushing yards per game a year ago. “Coach Lynch told me they were losing a lot of people on the defensive side and they needed my help over there,” Neece said. At first, Hunt was not sure about this change. “Now that I have seen the success he has had on that side of the ball, I think it was good move for him,” Hunt said. “Although it hurt our depth and left a void in our offensive line, we have had guys step and do a great job.” All this change means that the Tigers’ goals on offense could be a little different this year. “I think we will be more versatile this year,” Hunt said. “We are always going to run the ball and always going to try and get into third and short situations, and I think the personnel we have will fit more three-receiver sets.” In order to run more spread formations, the Tigers will have to sacrifice the use of a tight end on occasions. This could lead to added pressure from opposing defenses, however, Hunt is confident with his returning starters up front. “I have confidence in those guys in any situation,” Hunt said. “We have blitz beaters, and I need to do a better job of picking the blitz up and finding the open guy and making calls at the line.” The first opportunity to see the DePauw offense will be on Saturday, as the Tigers take on Franklin College in a combination joint practice and scrimmage at 12:45 p.m. at Blackstock Stadium.
