OSU makes Monday a little less “ruff” with National Dog Day celebration D R U NO RTON STAFF REPORTER @ OCO LLY

The dog days of summer are not over yet.

Oklahoma State University hosted National Dog Day events on Monday, and many of OSU Pete’s Pet Posse were around campus to celebrate.

Pete’s Pet Posse is the name of OSU’s Pet Therapy Program that began in the fall of 2013.

The goal of the program is to positively enhance physical and emotional health and contribute to the success of becoming America’s Healthiest Campus, according to OSU Human Resources.

To start off the day’s events, First Lady Ann Hargis cruised around campus in her orange golf taxi, Clementine, with her dog, Scruff.

Hargis said Scruff was the first member of Pete’s Pet Posse.

“Scruff was a stray, Hargis said. “The cool thing is he was rescued by students, and they estimate he was two years old when we got him. That was six years ago. He was in the first therapy class, and he’s been going strong ever since.”

Hargis said each handler of a member of Pete’s Pet Posse will do something different to celebrate the day.

“This time last year on National Dog Day, we dedicated the celebration garden to celebrate,” Hargis said. “We always do something to celebrate.

This year, everyone in Pete’s Posse came up with their own thing to do that suits their dog.

I’m lucky that I’ve got the golf cart, and a dog that likes to ride around in the golf cart, so that’s what we do.”

Hargis said having the pet therapy dogs on campus sets OSU apart from other universities.

“I just saw a tour of grandparents and parents here with their students, and it’s so fun to see their faces light up, because they don’t see this on any

other campus,” Hargis said. “I hope that having pet-therapy dogs around for students to find comfort in instills the fact that we really are a familyoriented university.”

Kyle Eastham, executive-in-residence, brought his dog, Caldwell, to hand out fortunate cookies to students.

Eastham said his favorite part about National Dog Day is seeing the reactions from students.

“Students just gasp, and their faces light up when they see Caldwell, he’s a huge Great Dane,” Eastham said. “They usually start to interact with one another and tell stories of their dogs.”

Eastham said the ther-

apy dogs can help ease feelings of homesickness for students.

“These therapy dogs can help with traumatic events, relieve stress, and can be such a calming presence to students,” Eastham said. “Students that are missing their dogs at home have the opportunity to come and love on these dogs as much as they want.”

Kris Hiney, equine extension specialist, brought her dog, Hitch, to perform tricks for students.

Hiney said she enjoys the comfort that dogs provide.

“I have four dogs, so I do a lot of training and play with them,” Hiney

said. “Even though I do all of this active stuff with them, the most comforting thing is when I’m sitting still, and my dog is next to me. Just that little connection, it’s so calming and in the moment.

I’m a big advocate for the human-animal bond and what it brings to the table.”

Hiney said National Dog Day is one of her favorite holidays.

“If I’m by myself, there is not one person that’s going to smile when they see me. But when people see Hitch, it just causes them to smile,” Hiney said. “Every day should be National Dog Day, I declare it.”

COWB OY FOOTBALL

SP O RT S

Hubbard primed for season after being named to Maxwell Award preseason watch list Ryan N ovoz in s k y staff reporter @ ryan n ovo 6 2

Chuba Hubbard is ready for Cowboy football.

The sophomore running back was added to the Maxwell Award preseason watch list this offseason. This award is given to the college football player of the year. Barry Sanders has been the only OSU player to ever win the award.

“It’s an honor to be on that watchlist,” Hubbard said. “(I’m) forever thankful for that. But at the end of the day I kind of put that stuff aside and try to focus on the season and getting wins… I can get as many yards but if we don’t get the win it doesn’t really matter.”

Hubbard wants to win and he’s con-

fident that his team is going to do more of that this year.

“Yeah I’m just excited for the season,” Hubbard said. “It’ll be great. A lot better than last year, I know that.”

OSU’s 2018 season saw the Cowboys win just seven games, breaking a Mike Gundy’s three year streak of 10 win seasons.

Hubbard will have an even better chance this year to help the Cowboys win as he’s finally taking the reigns as the starting running back.

When asked about what OSU fans should expect from Hubbard this year, the running back simply replied: “The best. The best he can bring. I’m going to give it all I got.”

How Jim Knowles is Preparing for Oregon State’s Offensive Weapons

ADAM LUTHER/O’COLLY

WEDNESDAY, AUGUST 28, 2019

OCOLLY.COM

The Oklahoma State football team’s week one opponent finally has an answer at the starting quarterback position.

Sixth-year senior Jake Luton will start at quarterback for the Oregon State Beavers this season, coach Jonathan Smith said on Friday.

This decision comes after a long offseason battle between Luton and Tristan Gebbia, a redshirt sophomore and transfer from Nebraska.

Oklahoma State’s defensive coordinator Jim Knowles was prepared for either quarterback to play.

“Well I think you have to prepare for both,” Knowles said. “They are different enough that you really need to be prepared for anything that happens and it’s the first game so you truly don’t know what to expect and it’s

up to you to be sound and fundamental.”

In addition to Luton, Knowles also recognizes the other talented threat in Oregon State’s backfield, sophomore running back Jermar Jefferson. As a true freshman in 2018, Jefferson finished third in rushing yards in the Pac 12 with 1,380.

“He’s very good,” Knowles said of Jefferson.

“I think he’s dynamic so it’s really a group effort, it really is. That’s defense and it’s about fundamentals and leverage and all those things that are probably boring to the public but that’s what it’s all about in terms of stopping a good back, you’re not going to do anything with one guy. It’s going to take a whole team”.

Taylor Swift redefines herself in the new album “Lover” Megan Hays S taff Repo rter @ m egtherep ort er

The cover art tells the difference in styles. Two years ago, the cover was black and white with her eyes meeting the camera with an intense gaze.

Now Taylor Swift’s new album “Lover” is covered in cotton candy clouds and Swift’s figure in soft blue and eyes not even looking at the viewer.

The soft dreamy concept of the cover and the title of the album is echoed in the music.

The title track of the album reflects this.

“Lover” starts with an acoustic guitar and beat echoing an old school song from the 40’s. The almost tinny effect on Swift’s voice adds to the vintage sound as the song progresses. The lyrics are signature Swift style lyrics depicting a dreamy feel of some moments in an established relationship.

Swift’s voice is airy and delicate in the chorus, exposing the vulnerability of wanting more from a relationship and further in the song of revealing insecurities. The soft background vocals add to the dreamy feel of the song. The whisper breakdown when the guitar drops out and a piano takes over the rhythm calls back to the

old school love songs and adds more dynamic to the song to keep the listener engaged.

Along with all the gentle and fanciful songs like “The Archer” and “Cornelia Street” there are some more tough love songs. “The Man” is one of those songs. The song starts with just a deep synthetic beat and Swift’s voice. The lyrics don’t tell a story but start describing how people would view Swift if she was a man. At the chorus manufactured background music comes in to emphasis the change and pick up the song’s tempo.

It causes the audience to perk up and really listen to the message behind the song.

In the album, Swift experiments with different ways of presenting her voice on her records, “False God” demonstrates that. With a jazzy trumpet intro that suddenly shifts to synthetic drop and Swift’s percussive and gentle vocals.

The heavy beat almost overpowers her voice but that only adds to the broken hearted vulnerability portrayed in the lyrics.

Her vocals turn to almost spoken word as the song builds up towards the chorus before her soft vocals pair with the trumpet from the beginning.

The overall feel of the album can be captured

WEDNESDAY, AUGUST 28, 2019

in “Daylight.” Like the cover of the album it starts off soft and dreamy with Swift’s voice and a synthetic guitar. The beat comes in later, quietly at first before building as the song progresses to the chorus. On first listen it’s easy to miss the chorus but the beat drops out momentarily and Swift’s vocals become the focus.

Her voice strengthens as the song continues and the second chorus is more distinct especially now that the listener knows what to listen for. The music builds to take the song from sounding sad to being more empowering and uplifting.

The main reason this song encompasses the album though isn’t just the feel of the song, it’s the voice recording of Swift just talking over soft piano notes. She talks about what she wants to be defined by and reveals a bit about why the title of the album is “Lover.”

“Lover” is everything the cover art demonstrates. It has soft and dreamy songs about love, but also has the more range of topics from dealing with hate in “I Forgot You Existed” and other topics beyond that.

“Lover” has demonstrated Swift’s versatility in songwriting and maturity in exploring different types of sound.
