Top 5 saving tips for students

Money management is no easy task, especially while in college. There is no doubt that college comes with expenses. Many students, as new adults, find themselves facing an abundance of financial decisions for the first time in their lives. It can be a difficult path to navigate.

To save money and yourself some stress, there are five efficient ways to save money in college.

1. Make a budget Incorporating a budget into your financial routine will allow you to track where you spend your money. Making budgets and organizing them by category can be helpful.

Ruth Folly, biology pre-med major, said bud-

geting is important. “Budgeting and making it a habit will save you in the long run when you want to know where your money went,” Folly said.

2. Seek a part-time job OSU has its own resources to help students seeking work. The HireOsuGrads website can help you search for jobs, both on campus and off. All employers who hire for on-campus jobs work around the class schedules of their employees. For students living on campus, the jobs are within walking distance. If you choose to work off campus, there are plenty of part-time jobs available around Stillwater. Creating a LinkedIn account can be helpful to find opportunities in the area. Not to mention, it will help you after you graduate.

Over the past several years, Steph Link, Ho’omana Nathan Horton and Michael Amory from OSU’s Department of English have worked with the Afghan Resettlement Program within the English Language and Intercultural Center on campus.

An original mission to revive the language learning pro -

“Our primary responsibility, in the beginning, was English learning services,” said Amory, who served as the ELIC interim director in 202122. “We would help individuals become valued members of the community and develop the language needed for employment.”

Stillwater communities and OSU services pledged to help professors by giving added

support, which led to a Community Engagement Award for the College of Education and Human Sciences and a new development of OSU Compassionate Afghan Resettlement and English Services.

“Not only did we have the capacity to provide resources, but we were able to centralize a lot of resources, so people knew exactly where to go to get help,” said Link, who served as the director of OSU CARES.

Texas House managers continue to spell out case to remove Attorney General Ken Paxton

AUSTIN, Texas — The attorney that Ken Paxton handpicked to investigate complaints from Texas real estate developer Nate Paul testified Tuesday that many of the people he issued grand jury subpoenas to were recommended by Paul’s attorney.

Houston attorney Brandon Cammack said during Tuesday’s hearing of Paxton’s impeachment trial that he directly reported to Paxton and sought advice from the attorney general on issuing subpoenas. Many of the people he targeted would turn out to be business and legal adversaries of Paul who had previously sued the federally indicted real estate investor.

Cammack’s testimony has shown the deep involvement Paul’s attorney, Michael Wynne, had in how Paxton attempted to help Paul. Paul believed that the FBI and other law enforcement were treating him unfairly. Paxton tried to help Paul, and when the attorney general’s top deputies dismissed Paul’s complaints as far-fetched conspiracy theories, Paxton hired outside counsel to investigate.

Cammack also told the Texas Senate, where Paxton is facing removal from office under numerous articles of impeachment, that he reported directly to the attorney general and kept him regularly apprised

of his work. Cammack’s testimony comes on the sixth day of Paxton’s impeachment trial. The House managers prosecuting the attorney general have continued to call witnesses to speak to how Paxton tried to use agency resources to assist Paul, who was a friend and campaign donor. Paxton is accused of bribery, abuse of office and obstruction in allegations related

to his dealings with Paul. The attorney general pleaded not guilty to all charges last week and remains suspended from duty pending the outcome of his impeachment trial, which could end this week.

Paxton has not been present at his trial since last week.

Tuesday’s testimony also revealed that Wynne, who represented Paul in 2020, was also involved with Paxton’s hiring of Cammack from the get-go.

Travis Wittlake announces transfer to Oregon State

Braden Bush

Sports Editor

Travis Wittlake will be wearing another schools’ orange and black this season.

Wittlake, a twotime All-American for OSU, announced in an Instagram post Tuesday that he is transferring to Oregon State with one year of eligibility remaining. On Saturday, wrestling reporter Pat Mineo reported Wittlake had entered the transfer portal. Now, it’s official.

With the Cowboys, Wittlake won a Big 12 title at 165 pounds in 2020, finishing with a 28-2 record in the starting lineup his redshirt freshman season. He entered the NCAA Tournament as the No. 4 seed before COVID-19 shut the season down.

He earned his second All-American honors in 2021, finishing fourth at NCAAs in the 165-pound bracket. A season ago, Wittlake move up to 184 pounds and went 20-7. He placed third at the Big 12 Championships and fell short of a third All-American finish at NCAAs, where he entered as the No. 10 seed.

Wittlake is from Coos Bay, Oregon, where he was a fourtime state champion at Marshfield High School, so his transfer to Oregon State moves him within 130 miles of his hometown.

With the Beavers, Wittlake will be coached by a former Cowboy wrestler, Chris Pendleton, who is beginning his fourth season as Oregon State’s head coach.

Wittlake was the likely choice for the Cowboys’ 184-pound starting spot, ranked at No. 9 at 184 pounds on FloWrestling’s early rankings. But OSU has a few other options listed on the roster.

The most notable is Jersey Robb, a freshman from Bixby who was a three-time state champion and onetime state runner-up.

Other options listed at 184 on the OSU roster are Carlos Alvarado, a freshman from Enid; Trevor Dopps, a redshirt sophomore from Goddard, Kansas; Evan Shetley, a redshirt junior from Sullivan, Missouri.

BIG 12 sports POWER RANKINGS: WEEK 2

Tessa Dorrell Staff Reporter

5 Cincinnati

The Bearcats brought back a River City Rivalry win, beating Pittsburgh, 27-21, on the road Saturday to improve to 2-0.

Running back Corey Kiner rushed for a career-best 153 yards and one touchdown. He had his second consecutive 100-yard performance.

“It is early in the season but that was a very, very good road win for our team,” Cincinnati coach Scott Satterfield said. “I am proud of our coaching staff and our players for how they prepared this week and came in here and got this win.”

There’s a new No. 1.

The O’Colly is releasing its Big 12 power rankings after each week, and here’s where everyone stacks up after Week 2.

1 TEXAS

(AP NO. 4)

The Longhorns took down the No. 3 Crimson Tide in Tuscaloosa, 34-24, on Saturday night. This win snapped Alabama’s 21-game home winning streak.

Any team that can take down Nick Saban’s Crimson Tide deserves the top spot in The O’Colly’s power rankings.

Sophomore quarterback Quinn Ewers completed 24-of-38 passes for 349 yards and three touchdowns. Ja’Tavion Sanders led the Longhorns with five catches for 114 yards.

“There is a lot of individual highlight performances to talk about,” Texas coach Steve Sarkisian said. “But all in all, it’s a heck of a team win, and I’m really proud of our players.

2 K ANSAS STATE

(AP NO. 15)

The No. 15 Wildcats got a win and stayed in the Top 25. KSU beat Troy, 42-13, on Saturday at home, ending Troy’s 12-game winning streak. K-State held the Trojans to 286 yards just a week after the Trojans gained 540.

Quarterback Will Howard threw for three touchdowns and ran for two.

“That was a great win for our guys, a great win over a really good team,” KSU coach Chris Klieman said.

3

Oklahoma

(AP NO. 19)

The Sooners are 2-0 but fell in The O’Colly power rankings after skimming by SMU, 28-11, in Norman on Saturday. OU quarterback Dillon Gabriel threw four touchdown passes, and Tawee Walker ran for a career-high 117 yards.

OU did not have a turnover, while SMU had two and a blocked punt.

“I love that about our team — the fight and the courage and the belief and the never-flinch attitude that they had,” OU coach Brent Venables said. “I thought, ‘That was what you want to see.’ A year ago, I’m not sure if we would have figured out a way to win that game.”

Kansas

The Jayhawks and Jalon Daniels are back. KU moved to 2-0 after a 34-23 win against Illinois on Friday in Lawrence.

Daniels made his season debut after missing Game 1 with back soreness. He threw for 280 yards and two touchdowns. Devin Neal ran for 120 yards and a touchdown.

6 UCF

The Knights’ nonconference schedule isn’t easy, but here they sit 2-0. UCF beat Boise State, 18-16, on Saturday. The Golden Knights leaned on kicker Colton Boomer to carry them through.

Boomer made four field goals, including a 40-yard game winner, and he tied a school record with a 55-yard field goal in the second quarter.

“What can you say about Boomer?”

UCF coach Gus Malzahn said. “A 50 and then a 55-yard field goal and then a 40 yarder with the game on the line? He’s one of the best kickers in college football. It doesn’t get any tougher than that on the road.”

7 TCU

The Horned Frogs shook off a close loss to Colorado with a 41-6 win at home against Nicholls on Saturday. The Horned Frogs kept Nicholls from scoring an offensive touchdown and held the Colonels to 263 yards. Thirteen TCU players had a reception, and quarterback Chandler Morris went 26-of-30 for 263 yards and two touchdowns.

“I would say it’s still far from what we need,” TCU coach Sonny Dykes said. “But it was better. I thought we played with some excitement today.”

8 Oklahoma State

The Cowboys survived the desert, beating Arizona State, 27-15, on Saturday in 104-degree weather in Tempe to move to 2-0. Oklahoma State kept its three-quarterback design by playing Garret Rangel, Alan Bowman and Gunnar Gundy.

“We played much better in the second half,” OSU coach Mike Gundy said. “We made a few adjustments defensively that really helped us. We got beat once down the middle and got out of coverage. Overall, defensively we played pretty well.”

9 Houston

Although Houston is 1-1, credit is due for a 43-41 double-overtime loss on the road against an underrated Rice team.

The Cougars scored 28 unanswered points to tie the game in the fourth quarter, but it wasn’t enough for the win.

“I can’t explain it,” Houston coach Dana Holgorsen said. “Maybe it’s a trap game. Maybe it’s a trophy game. Maybe it’s a rivalry game. Maybe we were looking forward to the Big 12 and TCU. I don’t know. Maybe we didn’t respect our opponent and they whipped our tail. At the end of the day, it’s on me.”

“At first glimpse, I thought we were an extremely physical football team tonight,” Kansas coach Lance Leipold said. “The film will tell us for sure, but I thought we played aggressive. We’re playing in a fashion that we’re going to need in the Big 12 this year.”

10 BYU

The Cougars clawed through Southern Utah, 41-16 at home Saturday, to become 2-0.

BYU quarterback Kedon Slovis threw touchdowns to four receivers and was 22-of-32 for 348 yards. The Cougars had a tough start offensively, only leading 6-3 in the first quarter but scored 27 unanswered points before the end of the first half.

“It wasn’t the best game, but I saw some really promising things,” BYU coach Kalani Sitake said. “Obviously, I would like to play better in all three phases.”

11 Iowa State

A loss means no room to move up in the power rankings and no Cy-Hawk Trophy. Iowa State lost to No. 25 Iowa, 20-13, in Ames on Saturday.

The Cyclones missed suspended quarterback Hunter Dekkers, and Rocco Becht, a freshman quarterback, has taken over, He went 23-of-44 for 203 yards with an interception.

“I’m really proud of our football team,” Iowa State coach Matt Campbell said. “I think it’s the best we’ve played in this football game since I’ve been here... Man, I’ll be honest with you, credit to them. They played a good, good football game and made a couple of plays that beat us...”

12 West Virginia

The Mountaineers evened their record to 1-1. WVU defeated Duquesne 56-17 at home on a rainy Saturday. Redshirt freshman receiver Hudson Clement caught three touchdown passes and was put on scholarship after the game.

Still, after a blowout loss in Week 1, West Virginia stays toward the bottom, even with a win.

13 Texas Tech

The 0-2 Red Raiders suffered another tough loss, but this time in Lubbock. Texas Tech lost to No. 13 Oregon, 38-30, on Saturday.

The Red Raiders had 456 yards of offense but had three interceptions and a fumble from senior quarterback Tyler Shough. Tech had a 27-18 lead in the fourth quarter, but Tech was outscored 20-3 in the fourth.

“We’ve gone through two games and we’re 0-2, and I asked them, ‘Is it us or them?’” TTU coach Joey McGuire said. “And it’s us right now.”

14 Baylor

Baylor, 0-2, belongs on the bottom after falling short once again. This week, the Bears lost to Utah, 20-13, in Waco on Saturday. Baylor gave Waco hope by holding onto the lead until the final 17 seconds. The Bears gave up two touchdowns in the final two minutes to the No. 12 Utes.

“Just disappointed in the outcome, proud of the effort,” Baylor coach Dave Aranda said. “I’m proud of just the work and the sacrifice and the effort, but it’s not enough.”

Afghan...

OSU CARES received federal funds in 2022 from the Oklahoma Department of Human Services in addition to their Community Engagement Award.

OSU is now an Every Campus a Refuge campus, and due to the initial efforts of the College of Arts and Sciences professors, refugees are now able to find safety and readily available resources that they need.

Adjunct professor of Islamic Studies, Adam Soltani, is also a member that is doing work with Afghan refugees. Soltani has served as the executive director of Oklahoma Council on American-Islamic Relations for more than 10 years. This made it easy for him to answer Catholic Charities’ call when they approached the council in 2021 to welcome Afghans to Oklahoma.

“Our biggest accomplishment through our refugee support is ensuring that the new Afghan community of Oklahoma knows that our State is a safe place where their religion, culture and identity are protected,” Soltani said. “We want them to know that we welcome them holistically, and we want to learn as much about their culture and identity as we want to share ours with them.”

Soltani was recognized as one of the Top 50 Young Professionals in Oklahoma City and received the 2022 Humanitarian Award from The Interfaith Alliance Foundation of Oklahoma in addition to his work within CAIR.

“I am beginning to see the fruits of this labor in which the Okie and Afghan identities are melding together to become something beautiful, unique and something to be celebrated,” Soltani said.

South Alabama brings physicality, efficient run game

Staff Reporter

ike Gundy and Xavier Benson described South Alabama, OSU’s Week 3 opponent, almost identically.

They acknowledged physicality when asked about the Jaguars. And it’s why Gundy deemed them the best opponent OSU will play through three

games.

“This is the most physical team we’ll play, the best team we’ll have played up to this point,” Gundy said.

“They’re physical, they’re a very aggressive defense and they wanna hit you in the mouth…they run the ball, they tackle. This is the most physical team we play (so far).”

South Alabama plays smashmouth football. They run the ball, and

they run it often. At the head of the Jaguars’ rushing attack – one that’s putting up 161 yards a game on the ground – is La’Damian Webb and Kentrel Bullock.

Webb was the team’s leading rusher in 2022 and is averaging a hyper-efficient 7.6 yards per carry. Bullock is chipping in, too, with 4.6 yards per rush.

Cowboys’ Linebacker Xavier Benson knows the type of football

South Alabama wants to play. And he’s aware of the Jaguars’ effective ground game, which brings his competitive side out.

“Physical (team)...I like what I see from them because I like competing,” Benson said. “At the end of the day, they’re one of those teams that’s gonna keep pounding (in the run game) so we gotta keep pounding with them.”

Hurricane Lee turning northwest, growing in size; Margot to meander north

hurricane hunter aircraft found Tuesday that it has grown significantly in width, enhancing its impact area. The storm will parallel the U.S. East Coast and remain west of Bermuda.

according to the National Hurricane Center.

FORT LAUDERDALE, Fla. —

Hurricane Lee has turned northwestward, beginning its long-awaited arc north, away from Florida, according to the National Hurricane Center’s 5 p.m. Eastern time update on Tuesday. Then the Category 3 storm should continue to steer north and run parallel to the U.S. East Coast over the coming days, while accelerating and growing wider.

The Atlantic Basin is active with three other systems.

Hurricane Margot is expected to remain a Category 1 storm but its path will meander northwest and north toward the end of the week. Farther east, two tropical waves near Africa are in the process of merging into one system that has an 80% chance of developing into a tropical depression by the weekend as it moves northwest toward the central tropical Atlantic.

Though forecasters expect Lee to weaken slightly as it heads north,

The NHC describes Lee as a “very large hurricane” whose hurricane-force winds extend outward up to 125 miles from the center and tropicalstorm-force winds extend outward up to 240 miles.

The storm’s growing wind field should impact Bermuda on Thursday, prompting the Bermuda Weather Service to issue a Tropical Storm Watch. Long Island and southern New England could see tropical-storm-force winds arriving as early as Friday.

The hurricane center’s prediction extends through Sunday morning, at which time the storm may have dissipated to a tropical storm, making potential landfall in an area the includes coastal Maine, New Brunswick and Nova Scotia.

As of 5 p.m. Tuesday, Lee was about 535 miles south of Bermuda, moving northwest at 7 mph and maintaining top wind speeds of 115 mph,

Last week, Lee went through exceptionally rapid intensification, vaulting from a Category 1 hurricane with maximum sustained winds of 80 mph early Thursday to a dangerous Category 5 storm with 165 mph winds in just 24 hours.

The hurricane center warned of “hazardous surf and rip currents” at beaches across the Bahamas and the east coast of the U.S. all week.

The weather service added that South Florida beaches will experience “deteriorating beach and boating conditions” by the middle of this week with a likely risk of deadly rip currents.

As Lee gradually builds swells during the week, there could be some minor beach erosion from rough surf pounding against shore at high tide.

Lee is expected to move over cooler sea temperatures left in the wake of Hurricane Franklin later in the week. That, along with wind shear and dry air, is expected to weaken Lee steadily late this week and throughout the weekend, forecasters said.

Lee is the fourth Atlantic hurricane of the 2023 season, behind Don, Franklin and Idalia, and the third major hurricane, meaning Category 3 or above. Franklin and Idalia were major hurricanes.

A strengthening Hurricane Margot was at Category 1 Tuesday, with maximum sustained winds of 80 mph. It is forecast to turn north or northwest and is not currently a threat to South Florida.

Hurricane-force winds extend outward up to 80 miles from Margot’s center and tropical-storm-force winds extend outward up to 265 miles. After Friday, Margot’s track is “unusually uncertain,” and that track will determine whether the system will strengthen or weaken.

Forecasters also are watching two disturbances in the far eastern Atlantic Ocean that in the process of merging, potentially developing into a tropical depression as the systems move across the central tropical Atlantic. The season officially runs through Nov. 30. The next named storm will be Nigel.

Cammack had never served as a special prosecutor and never worked for the attorney general’s office. But back in August 2020, he described receiving a phone call from a blocked number. He did not pick up, but the following day, Wynne, who Cammack knew through the Houston legal community, told him that the attorney general had reached out.

Paxton, Cammack testified, wanted him to apply to be a special prosecutor. Cammack eagerly drove to Austin, met with the attorney general, who briefly described the scope of the work as something his own deputies were refusing to investigate.

Paxton “just wanted to find out the truth,” Cammack testified.

Cammack said he decided to take on the investigation after a follow-up interview with Paxton’s second-in-command, who appeared disinterested in the investigation.

Paxton “made a comment that you need to have some guts to work on a case like this, and I was fired up about the opportunity to do it,” Cammack testified.

Cammack said he did an initial Google search of Paul, but went into his first meeting with the real estate investor with no knowledge that Paul was under FBI investigation or of any of the lawsuits swirling around his numerous real estate holdings.

Cammack described an animated and energetic Paul who for about two hours talked about how the FBI, state police, a federal magistrate and a federal prosecutor had illegally altered a search warrant.

“I was convinced by what I was shown,” Cammack said.

Wynne regularly provided information to Cammack, including spreadsheets with names and contact informa-

tion, he testified. Many ended up in Cammack’s subpoenas. Wynne later accompanied Cammack in serving subpoenas to at least two banks involved in lawsuits against Paul, according to recordings

of those interactions provided by House managers. The subpoenas played a pivotal role in several of Paxton’s former top deputies’ decision to report the attorney general to the FBI, the former

employees testified. Their accusations against their former boss the basis of several articles of impeachment, House managers have said.

Cammack also testified that he was directly hired by

Paxton, contradicting testimony Paxton’s first assistant Brent Webster made during a 2021 Senate committee hearing.

Witness Mark Penley, who served as the deputy attorney general for criminal justice under Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton for one year, provides testimony as he is examined by Rusty Hardin, an attorney for the House impeachment managers, during day five of Paxton’s impeachment trial in the Senate chamber at the Texas State Capitol in Austin on Monday, Sept. 11, 2023. Paxton pleaded not guilty last week to numerous articles of impeachment.

3. Use apps to track spending

Both spending and budgeting can be easily tracked on multiple different apps. Amit Bansal, director of the Center for Financial Health and Wellness, recommends “Mint” or “YNAB.” Fellow student, Folly recommends “EveryDollar.”

Using an app allows you to view your budget, spending habits and sometimes bank account balances right at your fingertips.

Learning to track your habits can help you determine what you might need to cut back on.

Apps have made it easier to form good financial habits.

4. 50/30/20 rule

This financial technique allows people to budget by dividing their income to fit their needs, wants, savings and debt repayments. 50% needs, 30% wants and 20%

toward savings or payments.

The 50/30/20 concept is a simple approach to budgeting for people who are new to financial planning. This makes it ideal for college students.

5. Emergency fund

All the financial planning in the world isn’t enough preparation for any unplanned expenses. A trip to the ER, or a flat tire are parts of life that can’t be calculated in any monthly budget.

Building an emergency fund is preparation for unexpected expenses and emergencies.

Bansal recommends setting aside

enough to cover three to six months’ worth of expenses.

Incorporating calculated planning and decision-making can help plan better for your future.

OSU has resources to help students create personalized financial plans at the Center for Financial Health and Wellness in the Spears School of Business building.

Consider implementing these techniques or visiting Spears to learn how to save money and plan for financial success.
