Opinion Editor The Chadron State men’s rodeo team started the fall Central Rocky Mountain Region circuit strong this weekend in Chadron at the Dawes County Fairgrounds placing first with 530 points, putting them in the lead of the region. CSC was followed by the Sheridan College men’s team, who racked up 510 points.

Casper College’s women’s team took the championship title with 245 points followed by Sheridan College with 205 points with CSC coming in third with 196.67 points.

Ten CSC contestants placed in the top six of their events. Elsie Fortune, senior of Interior, South Dakota, led the women’s team, capturing the championship in breakaway roping with times of 2.7 seconds and 3.2 to put her at 5.9 on two; while Cordale Martin, junior of Panhandle, Texas, won the bull riding average with a score of 83 points on his long-round bull and a noscore in the short-go.

“I knew I just had to make another clean run (going into the short-go),” Fortune said.

Both Lane Day, graduate student of Bartlett, and Prestyn Novak, junior of Newell, South Dakota, placed in the tie-down roping, third and sixth, respectively; and steer wrestling, sixth and third, respectively. Novak placed second in the all-around cowboy standing, followed closely by Day who placed third all-around.

Constitution Day panel brings awareness to prominent cases Syerra Wycoff Bagshaw Contributor

A board of CSC professors held a panel discussing major court cases as part of Constitution Day, Sept. 15.

“What constitutes an unreasonable search?” was one question prompted by Michael Bogner, justice studies professor, when he seized the microphone at the seminar in the Student Center Bordeaux/ Lakota Room.

He and the other presenters, Associate Professor of Social and Communication Arts Robert Knight, Professors of Justice Studies Tracy Nobling and Lisette Leesch, and Assistant Professor and Department Chair of Business Nathaniel Gallegos, reviewed 10 cases that were settled by the Supreme Court during

the last term and set new precedents for citizens of the U.S. The seminar was opened up by Bogner and James Wada, associate professor and department chair of justice studies, who briefly went into discussion about the untimely death of Justice Antonin Scalia, and the impact that death had on the decisions that were made following it.

One of the cases in particular delved into the limitations and reach of the Fourth Amendment, and how intrusive an officer can be when taking tests from you during a traffic stop.

Another case, covered by Leesch, addressed a case based out of Texas in which the state was placing an undue burden on women attempting to abort a fetus.

This sort of behavior was condemned by the Supreme Court as violating women’s rights and being

unconstitutional, another precedent setting case that has drastic repercussions in today’s society.

Following the seminar, the presenters opened the floor to ask questions and there was a raffle for an iPad. The winner was Lukas Kluebur, 18, freshman of Rapid City, South Dakota.

The importance behind these days and presentations lies in the content. They help students realize how these issues are relevant and have the capacity to have a real impact on our daily lives.

“It is important for students to attend these seminars in addition to their classes because it exposes them to other disciplines, other ideas from professors, and students,” Leesch said. “It allows them to question themselves, in terms of what they believe, and what they’re seeing happening.”

Soc-Sci. club amends $2,000 request to $900 Jordyn Hulinsky Managing Editor The Social Science Club Secretary Aaron Eagle came requesting money for a voting conference to be hosted Oct. 4. The idea is to have speakers come to discuss various topics about the upcoming election. The speakers are said to not campaign for any politician, but will just give information about each party and the process.

Eagle asked for $2,000, but due to miscommunication between club committee members and Eagle, that amount requested was incorrect, Conference Planning Committee Member Mauro Ovando said. Ovando contacted The Eagle about 6 p.m. Monday to make note of the correction. The correct amount was supposed to be $900 for a luncheon for 100-150 people. Social Science club is taking care of the rest of the funding. Eagle was a substitute for the original Social Sciences representative because that representative was ill.

Senate decided to wait to vote on the allocation until next week so senators could talk to their constituents and could discuss the alloca-

tion at the open forum at 5 p.m. Thursday.

Social Science Club has since contacted Senate President Katrina Hurley about the mistake and asked for Hurley to send out the correct information to all the senators.

Due to issues with copyrights, outdoor movie nights are temporarily postponed.

Swank Motion Pictures contacted the school and informed them that in order to play movies outside of residence halls, the school has to pay for the copyright to that movie. Senate planned to show “Space Jam” at a movie night this weekend, but senators want to look into the copyright costs more, so it is postponed until further notice.

The copyright for “Space Jam” would cost $575 and the average cost for a copyright to any movie would be between $500 and $600.

Hurley already spent $68.42 of the $200 allocated for the movie night on the DVD and Gatorades.

CAB was approved $14,196 for events for the rest of the semester. This number is revised from last week when the budget was proposed to reflect the $2,232 that was voted

on and allocated Friday for Free Movie Night last Sunday.

The breakdown in the budget is as follows: $6,696 for three Free Movie Nights, $1,000 for 10 Friday night activities, $2,000 for club cosponsored events, $500 for Homecoming activities, and $4,000 for one or two large events.

Alyssa Bauer, athletics graduate student worker, said that she has only gotten one request in the past two weeks for events to be added to the Guidebook app.

“I am not getting anything, so it’s kind of a waste of money if you ask me,” Bauer said. She said the emails for the app come straight to her and it’s easy to upload them to the app, but she can’t do it if she doesn’t get emails about events.

There was a complaint brought to Senator Carly Slaught about not having feminine product machines in all the bathrooms on campus.

Hurley said they would take that issue to the Campus Improvement Committee.

Katie Tobin, senator of E.H.P.C.P.S.W., resigned her position. Tobin did not respond to emails from The Eagle by press time.

Lukas Kleuber and Konery Klueber were

Senate’s first open forum makes little progress Jordyn Hulinsky Managing Editor Student Senate president Katrina Hurley hosted a 14-minute open forum Thursday to discuss three main topics with students.

Hurley said at the first Senate meeting of the school year that Senate would be hosting an open forum every week this semester, but this was the first meeting of the school year.

Hurley hosted the meeting to hear students’ opinions on three topics: teacher excellence award nominations, Free Movie Night allocation for Sunday, and CAB allocation for the semester.

Hurley suggested Student Senate put their support behind nominating Kurt Kinbacher, social and communication arts associate professor, for the NSCS Board of Trustees Teacher Excellence Award for next year. Other names thrown out to nominate were Lisette Leesch, justice stud-

ies professor, and Philip Cary, mathematical sciences associate professor.

Hurley also wanted to hear students’ opinions on a $2,232 allocation for Free Movie Night hosted Sunday. The only discussion on that allocation was a question about why “Now You See Me 2” was playing when that movie is out on DVD already, but no solution was made for that. There was an online Senate vote on Friday for the movie night allocation that passed unanimously.

There were no comments on the CAB allocation of $16,428 for the semester.

When two students, who weren’t senators or the student trustee, arrived at the forum, Hurley asked for situations that the students wanted fixed on campus. Amid jokes of “wanting girls to show more skin,” the students suggested dining services needed improvements. The students suggested things like less experimentation and joked about having a Hooters.

voted in as Brooks Hall and E.H.P.C.P.S.W. senators, respectively.

Student Senate Vice President of Finance Curtis Stevens reported $110,764.10 in unallocated funds. Stevens noted that last week his notes were inaccurate and he should have reported $112,996.10 last week instead of the $114,376.10 that was reported.

Hurley reminded senators that if they want to go on the Senate Peru trip, they need to submit three paragraphs about why they should go on the trip by 8 p.m. Sept. 30. The senators will travel to Peru State College on Oct. 27-28 to meet with Peru State and Wayne State’s Student Senate to discuss how they can improve their respective Senates.

Senators were asked to sign up for a week to be in charge of collecting recycling from all the buildings on campus. Senators will sort the recycling and then take it to the recycling bin downtown.

The Constitutional Review Committee reported that they will begin meeting on Saturday mornings to break down the bylaws and get through them quicker.

RLA educational series gives financial advice to students Melanie Nelson News Editor CSC students had the opportunity to receive financial guidance during “Bankrolling” Monday night at The Hub. Brooks and Eagle Ridge Resident Director Kale Lytle gave his presentation over achieving “SMART” goals and steps to get out of debt as part of the fall RLA educational series.

Students made a general goal, then went through five SMART steps—specific, measurable, achievable, relevant, and timebound—to fine-tune their goal.

Lytle based his guidance off of radio talkshow host Dave Ramsey’s advice, and showed two of his YouTube videos.

Next Lytle went through Ramsey’s “Seven Baby Steps” to get your debt under control.

His plan began with making a starter emergency fund, using his envelope budget system, and paying off debts smallest to largest.

Ramsey suggests that you label envelopes with all the different expenses you have in a month and put cash in each envelope. Once the cash you allotted for that expense is gone you cannot spend any more on it, unless you take from one of the other envelopes.

Fourteen students signed in to put their name in the drawing for a Smart TV that will be announced in October after the educational series is over. Four of the 14 stayed to participate in the event.

Lytle used a $40 budget to buy three prizes. Two of the students received Dave Ramsey’s book “The Total Money Makeover,” and one student won an envelope budget starter pack.

Senioritis virus is in the air Many students at CSC are in their fourth or fifth year of college and will be graduating in December or May 2017. There is a faint light at the end of the tunnel signaling that the end is actually near. Along with the realization that you may be nearing the end of school and education as you have known it comes a well-known academic disease called senioritis.

While it is easy to fall into the diseased hands of senioritis, you will be ahead once you get to the real world if you maintain speed and hit the ground running with your new job, career, or master’s program. There are a few things to keep in mind as you strive to accomplish this.

The first is to not let senior year become an excuse to back out of clubs, organizations, or other extracurricular activities that you were involved in throughout undergrad. It is easy to quit these activities to free up time in your schedule to leave you with more time to relax, but this is your last opportunity to spend time

and make memories with college friends and acquaintances. Senior year is not the time to quit.

Not only does staying involved give you one last year to spend time with your friends, it also proves that you have the dedication to stay committed to a cause even when it was easier to quit. Future employers will look at this as a professional attribute. It may be your willingness to stick with something that lands you a job over an equally qualified applicant that took time for themselves.

While it is important to stay involved, it is also easy to become overinvolved, and if there are activities and groups that are getting pushed to the back burner, it could be beneficial to let some of these things go.

The second thing to remember is that your grades still matter. It is easy to become complacent and let grades slip when it feels like you are a pro at school. It is especially hard to stay focused on grades when it is an elective that you are confi-

MAN ON THE STREET

we asked:

dent you will pass. Keep in mind that grades still matter, and a part of finishing school is continuing to actively participate in classes up to the end.

The third suggestion is to work smarter and not harder. By this time in your college career you should know what times you do your best work. Don’t schedule work, class or meetings during times that you know you will be at your worst. This may be 8 a.m. for some and 3 p.m. for others. Maybe by the time senior year rolls around it would be more effective to plan a relaxed class schedule so you aren’t as tempted to skip class. Figure out what works best for you, and stick to that.

Senioritis is lurking around every corner once senior year starts, but don’t let the academic disease infect you. Maintain the level of academic excellence that you have held yourself to thus far and finish with intensity. Then reap the benefits of maintaining your vigor.

NEWS ALERT: You aren’t the center of the universe Jordyn Hulinsky Managing Editor “There are millions of planets revolving around millions of suns revolving around millions of galaxies all revolving around one point in the center of the universe… and that point… is not you.”

This quote came from the television show “Reba.” It is a quote that has stood out to me and stuck with me for years.

This quote reminds people to not be selfish because truly the world does not revolve around you, and it reminds me to think about other people because they are just as much a part of this world as I am.

This weekend, I was at the Chadron State football game taking pictures for The Eagle. When taking pictures, you have to run back and forth from ends of the football field. On one instance I walked past the Eagle wrestlers standing next to the yellow ropes cheering on the football team. I appreciate the wrestlers and the enthusiasm and support they provide at football games, but what I did not appreciate this weekend was the tobacco spit I found on my leg after walking past the wrestlers.

SENATE SPEAKS A word from the Student Senate President

This week in Student Senate we discussed an issue of our movie nights on campus. If a movie is being shown in an educational manner the movie does not need to have a copyright permission. If the movie a group shows is not educational, they must have copyright permission to show the movie. This process can become pricey when adding up the amount of movies shown on campus.

It was brought to our attention by Senator Josh Mayer that we should look into a blanket copyright policy through a compa-

I am not looking for sympathy and I am honestly not bitter about this situation, I just want to share this situation so people can realize that what they do affects others around them.

There are about 3,000 people who are enrolled at Chadron State College, and shockingly enough, you are not the most important person on campus. I can say that confidently to everyone because none of us are the most important person on campus.

Over my four years on campus, I have heard various times that Chadron State is like a family and we are all in this together. I do not believe that we all have to act like best friends, or like we are all part of some large, happy family, but I do believe we need to treat everyone with respect.

College is hard and everyone is just trying to survive to the

ny to show all the movies under that company’s control. I will be looking into this with our faculty advisers to remedy this issue as fast as possible.

Committees are also under way starting this week. If you have any issues with things on campus that you would like to see changed please bring it to the Campus Improvement Committee, the chair of this committee will be determined this week for you to contact to be put on the agenda.

If you have questions about the Senate constitution and bylaws you can contact Curtis Stevens, the chair of the Constitutional Review Committee. Also if you have any questions about club funding and budgets you can also contact Stevens the chair of the Activity Fee Board Committee.

These committees are put in place to aide students to help the campus run smoothly. If you have any questions about these committees either email the chair at his or her EagleMail email or the Senate

end of the semester without having a mental breakdown, and disrespecting others and intentionally causing pain or problems for others is simply wrong.

I am not trying to say that the wrestlers intentionally spit on me, but I am trying to say that we need to pay attention to those around us.

Our actions, even things as simple as spitting on the ground, can affect everyone around us. There is certainly a ripple effect in play anytime we make a decision.

The world can be a cruel place, but we do not need to be a part of that cruelty. Stop being so selfish. Stop only thinking about yourself and start looking out for the other humans who share this universe with you.

I am not suggesting we all go out of our way to make every situation the best for the person standing next to us, but we simply need to not cause harm to those people.

Stop acting like you are the center of the universe and that you deserve everything in the world and start thinking about someone else for a change.

Watch where you are walking down the sidewalk, stop hogging computers and printers, watch where you are spitting, and start realizing the world does not revolve around you.

email at cscstudentsenate@eagles.csc.edu.

We still have open positions for Student Senate to be filled. If you live in Eagle Ridge or Kent, or are a major in the Liberal Arts school, and wish to enact change on campus please apply at your earliest convenience. It is imperative that we have senators that wish to represent the students of this campus through voting on important issues.

This week is the second week of Student Senate’s open forums. They will be at 5 p.m. every Thursday in the east rooms of the Student Center. This week we will be discussing allocations and Homecoming.

Please come and voice your opinions.

Have a great week!

Sincerely, Katrina Hurley Student Senate President

CSC’s offense struggled against a dominating Western State Colorado University defense, especially in the opening quarter.

The Mountaineers defeated CSC 24-15, Saturday at Elliott Field.

In the first quarter, the Mountaineer defense held the Eagles to 20 yards on six plays. Two 3-and-outs was all the Eagles could manage the opening 15 minutes. The Mountaineers controlled the ball for 12 minutes, 44 seconds to start the game.

The time of possession leveled off in the second quarter.

The Eagles held the ball for about six minutes in the second quarter, but only gained 73 yards. Midway through, Matt Vinson, junior of Box Elder, South Dakota, connected with Max Gray, redshirt sophomore of Arlington, Washington, for a 15yard touchdown pass. Gray finished with 111 yards.

The Eagles finished with 345 total offensive yards, 234 passing and 111 on the ground. On a bright note, CSC completed the game without a single turnover.

Cody Paul, senior of Seal Beach, California, led the ground attack for CSC, with 58 yards on 10 carries. Redshirt freshman Priest Jennings, of Stockton, California, finished the game with 57 rushing yards, 56 of them coming from one play in the third quarter.

Defensively, the Eagles couldn’t contain the powerful ground attack from Western State. Of Western’s 407 total yards, 377 of them were on the ground.

The duo of Cameron Shumway, redshirt sophomore of Blanding, Utah; and Austin Ekeler, senior of Eaton, Colorado, combined for all but 10 of the Mountaineers rushing attack.

Ekeler finished with 283 yards and two touchdowns. He was named the RMAC Offensive Player of the Week.

Shumway, a 6-foot-6-inch, 240-pound quarterback, rushed for 84 yards and a score.

Ryan Wood, senior of Stockton, California, led the Eagle defense with 12 tackles.

Courtland Joshua, senior of Donaldsonville, Louisiana, and Mitch Collicott, junior of McCook, added eight of their own.

Redshirt sophomore Merrit Crabtree, of Newcastle, Wyoming, also recorded eight tackles.

CSC is on the road for the second time this season, traveling to Alamosa, Colorado, to face Adams State University.

The Grizzlies are 0-3 overall and in conference play.

Adams State lost to Fort Lewis College, Durango, last week 21-16.

CSC will have another tough match-up on offense and defense, as ASU’s John Reed, senior of Glendale, Arizona, leads the RMAC in tackles, averaging more than 12 per game.

Junior runningback Corey Brown, of Peoria, Arizona, is in the top five runningbacks in the RMAC for yards per game, averaging 70 and more than six yards per carry.

Kickoff is set for 1 p.m.

Saturday.

Eagles start conference play 1-1 Preston Goehring Sports Editor A consistent offensive performance helped the Eagles split the opening weekend of RMAC play. The Eagles defeated the University of Colorado-Colorado Springs, in four sets on Friday, but couldn’t match the strong attack of Metropolitan State University-Denver, losing in four sets on Saturday.

Against the Cougars of UCCS, three Eagles finished with double-digit kills: Rudy Leasau, senior of LaMesa, California; Gaby Varela, junior of Dorado, Puerto Rico; and Stephanie Wilson, senior of Albuquerque, New Mexico. Leasau and

Varela contributed 14 kills apiece, while Wilson added 13 of her own.

Defensively, Varela added 10 digs and four blocks.

Varela Emily Bruce, junior of Centerton, Arkansas, earned 20 digs for CSC, while sophomore of Tucson, Arizona, Sierra Winkle, added 11. Alia Brennan, senior of Chadron, totaled nine blocks.

Setter Madison Webb, sophomore

of Loveland, Colorado, put up 49 assists, averaging over 12 per set.

During the second game of the weekend, the Eagles Leasau couldn’t find an answer to the overpowering offense of the Roadrunners.

As a team, MSU-D hit .284, with 61 kills, and 21 errors. A large portion of their offense came from the 10 service aces.

Although the defense struggled, Leas-

au and Varela had standout performances again. Varela put 19 kills on the board while Leasau accounted for 17.

Webb once again contributed more than 40 sets, finishing the game with 42.

CSC hit a fair .227 but could only muster one service ace and seven blocks.

The Eagles are now 2-8 overall, 1-1 in conference play, landing them in the middle of the pack after the first weekend of conference competition.

CSC’s first home game is Friday against Western State Colorado University, Gunnison, at 6 p.m. in the Chicoine Events Center. The Eagles will also host Colorado Mesa University, Grand Junction, at 6 p.m. Saturday.

Alumni fall just short in ‘glory days’ game Jordyn Hulinsky Managing Editor The CSC softball team won a scrimmage against a team of CSC’s softball alumni Saturday. The annual scrimmage is used as an opportunity to raise funds through a free will donation fundraiser to go toward breast cancer awareness.

Head Coach Robert Stack said that this is the fifth year for the alumni game and it’s an opportunity to give the alumni a chance to relive their “glory days” and for the alumni to reconnect.

“It also allows our current players to gain some wisdom from the past players,” Stack said. “One last thing for this alumni game is to help raise money for breast cancer awareness. We have done this since the first

alumni game and it goes to a most worthy cause.”

“The alumni game is a fun event for not only the spectators but the players as well,” Taylor Bauer, senior infielder of Rapid City, South Dakota, said. “Even though it is a slower pace than most games, I’m sure the alumni appreciate having the chance to play again no matter what type of game it is.”

The CSC team won 7-6 after seven innings. The current team slow pitched to the alumni team while the alumni team pitched fast pitch to the current team.

The alumni team featured Amanda Einspahr, Katelyn Kruger, Caroline Johnson, Shea Graham, Cierra Cosslett, and Breeze Phillips, who all finished their eligibility last season.

“It’s great getting to play with your old teammates on the same field again,” Bauer said.

There were also two former Eagles in the stands instead of on the field this year: Cassie (Humphrey) Ritzen and Jamie (Mazankowski) Hughes.

The alumni team held its own against the current CSC team after a few screams and flinches at the beginning of the game.

The alumni scored one run in the first inning and then didn’t score again until Graham hit a home run in the top of the fourth inning. Graham marked the only home run for the

alumni team.

Polsley marked the only strike out for the alumni team. Polsley was a volunteer coach for the team the year after she finished her eligibility and is in her second year as a graduate assistant and pitching coach for the team.

“The game was so much fun,” Wetch said. “Being a part of the alumni game is a great experience and it’s always fun to come back each year to see how much it’s grown, even from when I graduated (in May 2015).”

Zoe Humphries, senior catcher of Arvada, Colorado, sent one over the fence in the bottom of the first inning to score two. The current CSC players led after every inning leading up to their victory. Morgan Wilhelm, senior outfielder of Littleton, Colorado, hit a home run in the bottom of the fifth inning.

Bauer only struck out one alumni in the scrimmage.

“I love being part of the CSC softball program,” Wetch said. “It was the best four years of my life.”

“It’s great to see the great things they (the alumni) have done since graduating from Chadron State,” Stack said. “Fortunately softball was a mechanism for the alumni to do these great things and it makes me proud to see them and what they have accomplished. The hope is that the relationship these ladies have developed will be lifelong and their common bond is the game of softball.”

The CSC softball team will be back on the home field on Thursday, Sept. 29 for a scrimmage against Western Nebraska Community College, Scottsbluff.

Why spend money dining out on a trip?

Pack up some snacks and shop local for a more cost-effective meal plan

G

oing out to eat is pricey. Going out for three meals a day for an entire trip adds up faster than Usain Bolt. AAA travel planners advise travelers to budget at least $40 per meal, not including additional beverages. On a weeklong trip your estimated food costs would be approximately $300. Such a steep food budget seems discouraging but luckily food is a travel budget area that is easily reduced.

One sure-fire way to save money is packing food from home. A perk of packing snack food is that it can accompany you on any mode of transportation. Buying extra boxes of snack food is possible weeks before your trip. Granola bars and

Another money saving tip is budgeting your money before the day starts. An example of this is to set yourself a limit on how much you’ll spend on each meal and stick to it. Eating at cheap diners or fast food restaurants a few meals will cut down on spending. Hotel restaurants and tourist traps are notorious for overpriced food. Avoid those costs by dining at local eateries Using a combination of these three tips is the best way to plan a food budget.

An easy food break down is to bring your own breakfast, go out for lunch, and cook supper. Breakfast bars from home are a quick and cheap way to start the day of exploration. Food is a major part of an areas culture. Make sure to eat locally at some point in your adventure. Not eating local cuisine would be a deprivation of one aspect of your trip.

various snack items are simple breakfast substitutes. Preplanning and budgeting can save more than $35 on breakfast alone. When traveling abroad, especially in Spain packing meals for short excursions is a common custom. Packing your lunch will save you extra cash and give more of the local experience.

Preparing some or all of your meals while traveling greatly reduces costs.

Remember practically everywhere you travel will have local grocery stores or markets.

Not only will purchasing locally be a big money saver but it will also give you a glance at the local culture you wouldn’t have had before.

This money saving tip is excellent when traveling with multiple people. Splitting the cost helps your budget and prevents food from going to waste.

From left, Makenzie Watson, 22, senior of Mitchell; Lauren Newman, 19, sophomore of Julesburg, Colorado; and Morgan Carrico, 21, senior of Grand Junction, Colorado, perform a “promotional video” for their sorority Xi Delta Zeta Thursday in the Bordeaux/Lakota Room.

Sororities act to make a difference

Coy Clark, 21, senior of Benkelman, portrays an abusive partner where Samantha Merrill, 19, sophomore of Pierre, South Dakota, is the victim. The portrayal was for the Zeta Alpha Kappa skit Thursday in the Bordeaux/Lakota Room.

“He finally did it. He killed her,” a powerful ending to a moving skit involving domestic violence delivered

by Zeta Alpha Kappa at the Skit Night put on by the two sororities on campus, Zeta Alpha Kappa and Xi Delta Zeta.

The skits were designed to inform new initiates about the philanthropy behind the sororities. Zeta Alpha Kappa opened with a sobering skit about the dangers of domestic violence in which the victim was continuously sucked back into a toxic cycle of being abused until the resolution of the skit, which was her wrongful death.

Following this skit Xi Delta Zeta brought back up the energy and mood with a humorous mock promotional video, until they cut the music saying, “this isn’t who we are!” They proceeded to talk about the work they do around campus and in the community, reaching out to create a difference. Both sororities put on two skits, bringing the total to four, while the initiates ate fruit, drank juice, and enjoyed the antics of their soon-to-be sisters.

Ashley Goad, 19, sophomore of Pueblo, Colorado, said Zeta Alpha Kappa is working closely with

the Chadron Police Department to coordinate walks spreading awareness about sexual assault and developing internships for the club members so that they may further their future opportunities.

“College is a weird place, and Zeta Alpha Kappa is a great place to make friends,” Goad said.

Xi Delta Zeta member Morgan Carrico, 21, senior of Grand Junction, Colorado, was one of the founding members of the sorority. She said that the most fulfilling part about being in a sorority is having “a positive support group, developing networking skill sets, and teamwork.” She said that being one of the original founders has allowed her to learn about compromise, cooperation, and problem-solving.

The most powerful thing about both of these clubs is the intimate and palpable bond that exists between the members. There is a certain amount of family-like comfort that can be offered through such organizations as these, and if you were questioning whether you should get involved and join one of these clubs, you should take that leap and get involved.

‘The Giver’ offers new appreciation for life Who would you be in a life made of ‘Sameness?’

Janelle Kesterson Opinion Editor Imagine a world where everything is black and white; a world where families are matched on compatibility and not love, a world where everyone is the same. This is the scene set up by Lowis Lowry in the movie adaptation of “The Giver.”

The movie starts right before the ceremony of Twelve, which is when all the kids in the class of Twelve

are assigned to the jobs that they will hold until they retire and are released to Elsewhere. Jonas and his two best friends, Asher and Fiona, are all talking about the ceremony.

Both Asher and Fiona have a good idea of which job they will be assigned, but Jonas has no idea.

When the ceremony takes place he is assigned to the highest position in to community, Receiver of Memory. He begins his training with a man he calls The Giver, and he begins to learn the secret history of his idyllic world.

Jonas’ training includes receiving, from The Giver, all of the emotions and memories of experiences that the Committee of Elders chose to give up so that the community could achieve Sameness and with that, the illusion of social order.

Before Jonas became the Re-

ceiver of Memory, he volunteered at the nurturing center, where babies are taken care of until they are assigned to families. There was one baby named Gabriel who was not performing as well as the other babies so Jonas’ father brought the baby home to see if they could nurse it to health.

In the meantime, Jonas receives memories about happiness, sadness, pain, loss, and love from The Giver.

He realizes that he loves his family, Fiona, and Gabriel. He asks his family if they love him too and his mother scolds him for using a word that no longer has any application.

When Gabriel’s maturity stays the same with no sign of improvement, Jonas’ father tells him that Gabe must be released to Elsewhere. The next day at training, Jonas asks The Giver to show him a release. Jonas finds out that a release is actually a lethal injection. When he arrives at home Gabriel is gone and Jonas panics.

He rides his bike to The Giver’s house and tells The Giver that he

STAY IN with THE KNOW campus news:

“The Giver” box office performance Domestic: $45.09 million International: $10 million Worldwide: $55.09 million must leave the community and take Gabriel with him to save the baby’s life. Jonas’ goal is to reach the Boundary of Memory to release all of the memories he has received to the community. He travels for days and when he finally reaches the barrier, Gabriel is starving and Jonas is tired.

The movie ends without revealing what happened to the citizens of the community once they were given the memories back because Lowry wanted the readers of her book and the movie viewers to determine the outcome themselves.

Jonas had quite the struggle when he was introduced to emotions that he had never experienced before. Feelings like love and pain shocked him and made him more aware of his surroundings and his interactions with people.

Most people today have sight and smell. Most people can see colors and feel love and loss. These are all

things that I have taken for granted, and as I was watching this movie I gained a new appreciation for the life that I have been given the opportunity to live.

There isn’t somebody constantly watching and monitoring my daily activities, and I am given the freedom to make choices that suit me.

I have loved and lost, and I have endured great pain. Watching Jonas struggle through these experiences has made me appreciate the beauty in every memory that I have.

Overall, “The Giver” was uplifting and inspiring. While it is an emotion-provoking film, it is also suspenseful and kept my complete interest. I would recommend this film to everyone I know; young, old, and everywhere in-between.

P.S. it’s on Netflix, so take a couple hours out of your busy schedule to gain a new appreciation for all the good and bad things in your life.

You will not regret it.
