Dec Creation inspires imagination, hard work in Greek Community

All The Brands You Love...

House decs, including this from SigEp and Zeta last year, are Walkaround’s main attraction.

With homecoming week in full swing, it’s coming down to the wire for the Greeks.

After spending countless hours pomping the past two months, each sorority and fraternity pairing will showcase its house decoration Friday during Walkaround.

The process is a long, grueling one, but the long hours and exhausting work creates a trademark OSU experience when the week is done, and each piece of wire has been molded into perfection.

The process began before the academic year.

Jamie Poe, Zeta Tau Alpha homecoming director, said preparations begin as early as January when chapters pair and start creating designs.

“Pomping then commences during the first couple weeks of that school year and goes on right up until the week of (homecoming),” Poe said. “Currently, we’re down to the nitty-gritty details making sure everything is perfect for Friday night.”

Jill Maxfield, a Chi Omega director, said creating a dec is more complicated than putting tissue paper to chicken FRIDAY, OCTOBER 28, 2016

wire. The process is divided into different aspects.

“For example, the design directors are in charge of producing the grids to pomp, and the engineering directors are in charge of welding and building the framework and moving parts of the house decoration,” Maxfield said.

“There is also a specific process for keeping track of the members’ pomping hours and the overall budget.”

Directors manage deadlines, such as for design, engineering and budget, throughout the months. The strictest comes at 3 p.m. Friday when the house decorations must be complete and ready for judging.

The deadlines and different dec elements don’t stop the imagination and innovation in this age-old tradition.

“The designing process is without a doubt my favorite thing,” Poe said. “We’re allowed hands-on creativity, and it’s up to us to create something our house and school can be proud of. It’s a huge responsibility, but in the end it shows how honored we are to be a part of the community and the homecoming experience.”

Sigma Chi director Caleb Gatlin said the Greek pairings branched out this year and will have a variety of themes rather than typical OSU images. One challenge is taking the new designs and turning them into reality.

“Having something pictured in your mind or even drawn on a paper and having to construct it into an 18-feettall, 80-feet-wide decoration with six moving parts in the eight weeks from ground breaking to all night pomp is definitely the challenge,” Gatlin said.

Walkaround begins at 5:30 p.m. Friday in the Greek neighborhood. OSU Transit Services will provide a free shuttle from Stillwater hotels to the Walkaround beginning at 6 p.m. Judges will evaluate the decs Friday, and the winners will be announced Saturday during the homecoming football game.

Greeks aren’t the only ones to decorate as Oklahoma State University has lit up Theta Pond to make the campus look more appealing to the droves of alumni coming back.

Members of Sigma Chi prepare for Walkaround by welding the final frame for their house decorations. Sigma Chi is paired with Zeta Tau Alpha for homecoming 2016.

Alpha Tau Omega members are on a cherry picker so they can make sure and get the pomping sheets hung correctly. The fraternity is paired with Alpha Omicron Pi.

Jordan Sterns bows in prayer at last year’s homecoming.

Coach Mike Gundy said, although his thoughts are with the families of the victims that day, there is football to be played.

“Honestly hadn’t thought about that side of it until you brought it up,” Gundy said. “It’d be a very emotional time for some of the fans and people that it affected. For us, what I’ve been told is everything will go on as normal.

“I think it’s important to (the players), but in the end, they go to school, and they play ball.”

OSU will take the field at 11 a.m. Saturday at Boone Pickens Stadium against West Virginia for the Cowboys’ homecoming game.

The Mountaineers are No. 10 and undefeated, so Gundy said his players should be able to drown their emotions out at kickoff.

Quarterback Mason Rudolph said his emotions will be with him before

Saturday, but not letting those emotions cloud his judgment is something he is focused on.

“Week to week, we try to block out emotions,” Rudolph said. “You can’t play with emotion. You gotta play clear and with a full heart. A lot of people will be remembering that day a year ago. We will as well, but we’ve gotta block it out when it comes to game time.”

Receiver Jalen McCleskey was a freshman when the crash happened. He said he, too, immediately started praying for all of the families and keeps those families in his head. He said it was a day he will never

forget.

“Just praying for all the families and all the victims,” McCleskey said.

“It was supposed to be a cheerful time, but I’m just praying for them and hoping that their able to enjoy the rest of their lives and just keep moving on.

“Because you never know when it’s your last time.”

Breakdown of homecoming Royalty candidates

BY Jayci R ob is on Staff Reporter

Ten Oklahoma State University students are vying for a homecoming crown.

The Homecoming Royalty Court has five male and five female finalists competing for king and queen.

Bray Haven, Ridge Howell, Austin Johnson, Dillon Johnson and Mason Strom are the candidates for homecoming king. Elise Amundson, Julia Benbrook, Blake Bulard, Jaci Hodges and Jacquelyn Lane aim for the homecoming queen crown.

Candidates are chosen based on various degrees of excellence in scholarship, leadership and service.

cants. Then they took the top scores and narrowed down the selection to five king and queen royalty candidates.

Eligibility requirements for this position include 60 completed credit hours and a 3.0 cumulative GPA. Female candidate Blake Bulard, a biochemistry and molecular biology senior, said she considers being a candidate on OSU’s homecoming court an honor.

Something that stood out to Bulard during the interview process was a judge’s comment about how heartfelt the candidates’ answers were, she said.

“It’s genuine men and women who really love Oklahoma State and are down to earth people,” Bulard said.

“That’s the kind of students Oklahoma State produces.”

Howell, a history and English senior and SGA vice president, said homecoming is much bigger than a football game at OSU, which makes the celebration great.

“We don’t just throw around ‘America’s Greatest Homecoming Celebration,’” Howell said. “It’s the biggest and the best in the nation.”

Gundy embracing character over chance at 100 wins

BY De kota Gr egory Di gi ta l Sports Editor

In 1985, Mike Gundy committed to the University of Oklahoma to play quarterback. Saturday, he seeks his 100th win as the coach at Oklahoma State.

Despite the early commitment to OU, Gundy became a four-year starter for the Cowboys. During Gundy’s senior year at Midwest City High School, the Sooners claimed a national championship with freshman quarterback Jamelle Holieway under center.

Holieway’s early success led Gundy to Stillwater.

“Like most years at OU, their defense was gonna be so good that they’re gonna win

almost every game, and offensively, they’re not gonna take their quarterback out,” Gundy said. “I came (to OSU), I visited, I liked coach (Pat) Jones, I liked the environment here, so I said, ‘I’ll just go here.’”

Gundy tallied a 30-16 record as the Cowboys’ starting quarterback. After graduation, he stayed at OSU as the receivers coach. Gundy has spent most of his coaching career with OSU, with the exception of short stints at Baylor and Maryland, and he became the head coach in 2005.

In 12 seasons at the helm, Gundy has posted a 99-49 record. Saturday, he’ll get his shot at win No. 100 in the

Gundy hasn’t had a losing record since his first year.

He’s led the Cowboys to four seasons with at least 10 wins, including a 12-1 season in 2011, in which OSU won its first Big 12 title.

A win Saturday would make Gundy, 49, one of only seven active coaches with at least 100 wins, but the accolades are less important to him than character.

DEvin L. Wilber/O’COLLY “Once you kind of establish Mike Gundy seeks the 100th victory of his career Saturday. yourself, you learn to relax Cowboys’ homecoming game how he coaches the game and and enjoy the time,” Gundy said. “There’s always gonna against No. 10 West Virginia. how his players appreciate him. He has us work hard, and be stress and high energy in “It’s not easy to get 100 our profession, but there’s wins in college football,” OSU he’s hard on us. He gives us a point where the overall tough love, but just the fact safety Jordan Sterns said. that 100 wins is not easy, I’m picture, like I talk about all “That says a lot about him, just what kind of coach he is, proud of him for that.” the time, for me is, what kind Weekly Article by

Gajewski vs. goliath: homecoming & hoops’ main event BY lu ke gar z a Staff reporter

John Smith is constantly receiving challenges to wrestle, but at 51, he always says no.

He’s making an exception, however, for Homecoming & Hoops at 9 p.m. Friday in Gallagher-Iba Arena. Doors open at 8 p.m.

It all started with a pep talk from softball coach Kenny Gajewski after a loss against Auburn.

“I was talking to our team about we just needed to be a little tougher,” Gajewski said.

“We gotta build some sort of toughness.”

A few weeks later, Sports Administrator Jesse Martin challenged Gajewski on the team’s GroupMe. Martin

O’colly File Photos

John Smith (left) and Kenny Gajewski will wrestle Friday.

asked how many hit by pitches it would take to get Gajewski to wrestle Smith.

Gajewski replied, “50,” thinking he was safe.

Catcher Vanessa Shippy recalls the Cowgirls had 17 HBPs midway through last season. They seemed to have

no chance of racking up 50, but it happened.

Gajewski stood at third base in last season’s Athens Regional when Shippy was hit with No. 50. The Cowgirls celebrated as Gajewski imagined being slamming against the mat.

“Whoa. That’s gonna hurt,” Gajewski said.

At Homecoming & Hoops, we’ve seen the Cowboys and Cowgirls scrimmage each other on the court.

We’ve seen rowdy fraternities and sororities pack the lower level.

But we’ve never seen Gajewski wrestle Smith.

Most students have never seen Smith wrestle live, but Friday will be the first, and perhaps final, chance to do so.

Each will have incredibly different strategies. Other than a week of wrestling in elementary school, Gajewski has no experience. Smith’s success is well-documented.

He has a pair of Olympic gold

OCOLLY.COM

medals and NCAA championships.

Gajewski’s strategy will include running around the mat until Smith grabs ahold of him. Once Gajewski is in Smith’s grasp, the action seen on the mat will resemble a polar bear tossing around a baby seal before going for the kill.

Nobody wants to see Smith and Gajewski square off on the mat, only to have it end 15 seconds after they shake hands.

Smith will probably toy around with Gajewski to give fans, wrestlers and the Cowgirls enjoyment.

“It’s honestly gonna be the highlight of my year, no doubt,” Shippy said. “I’m

pretty ready to watch coach G get his butt kicked.”

Although Smith likely doesn’t need any practice, he’s been “pushing it hard on the farm” in preparation for Friday’s match. Gajewski, meanwhile, merely hopes he can escape with his shoulders intact.

“I don’t like my chances at all,” Gajewski said. “But I will show up, and I will take whatever is coming.”

By Nancy Black Tribune Content Agency Today’s Birthday (10/28/16). You’re a powerhouse behind the scenes this year. Lay vital infrastructure and craft plans and budgets. Shifting professional directions this spring leads to a new level in romance. A home renovation or relocation next autumn comes before your career takes off. Peaceful introspection feeds your soul.

To get the advantage, check the day’s rating: 10 is the easiest day, 0 the most challenging.

Aries (March 21-April 19) -- Today is a 7 -- Slow down and relax. Support your partner. Avoid fussing and arguing over stupid stuff. Stick to basics, close to home. Handle urgencies and clean up later.

Taurus (April 20-May 20) -- Today is an 8 -- Get as much done as possible without stressing. Expect some chaos. Slow for traffic and to resolve misunderstandings. Avoid extra expense. You can get what you need.

Gemini (May 21-June 20) -- Today is a 7 -- Play with people you admire, who have better skills. Healthy competition grows you stronger. Share your passion with someone who gets it.

Measure forward movement.

Cancer (June 21-July 22) -- Today is a 6 -- Enjoy quiet time at home. Domestic pleasures satisfy. Cook up something delicious from scratch. Apply elbow grease to improve your house or garden. Hang with your family.

Leo (July 23-Aug. 22) -- Today is a 7 -- Get your hands dirty with a creative project. Assemble parts into a greater whole.

Write and document your progress. Let others know what you need. Maintain the budget.

Virgo (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) -- Today is a 9 -- Dive into a profitable job with gusto. Keep track of your time and expenses.

Make preparations carefully, and strengthen support structures.

Watch for changes. Notice what’s missing.

Libra (Sept. 23-Oct. 22) -- Today is a 9 -- Do the work that no one else sees. Slow to avoid mistakes or breakage. Unscheduled complications could disrupt your routine. Don’t take things personally.

Scorpio (Oct. 23-Nov. 21) -- Today is a 6 -- Think things over.

Organize plans to save time and money. Discover more options than you knew you had. Retrospection provides another view.

Relax and recharge batteries.

Sagittarius (Nov. 22-Dec. 21) -- Today is an 8 -- Group discussions and meetings provide valuable input. Share resources and ideas. Network with others who are on the same wavelength.

Make plans before you make messes.

Capricorn (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) -- Today is a 9 -- A professional challenge has your attention. Cultivate your leadership. Where there’s a will, there’s a way. Investigate options. Talk to experienced friends. Wait for best timing.

Aquarius (Jan. 20-Feb. 18) -- Today is an 8 -- Study, research or travel call you out. Don’t throw your money around or spend it all in one place, though. Curb the desire to rush. Easy does it.

Pisces (Feb. 19-March 20) -- Today is an 8 -- Manage shared financial tasks (like insurance, taxes or inheritance). To avoid a potential problem, play the game exactly by the book. Strengthen structures for support and stability.
