On Nov. 13, Weber State University’s student senate discussed the LGBT Resource Center and the new Campus Climate website, where students can report and find information of on-campus incidents.

The meeting started with how the LGBT Resource Center celebrated Transgender Day of Remembrance. On Nov. 14, there was an Awareness Day session at 11:30 a.m. in the Shepherd Union game room. On Nov. 15, there was a documentary screening held in the same location, followed by a community dinner.

Jessica Oyler, vice president for Student Access and Success, announced the new Campus Climate website to address the recent incidents that took place on campus during the fall 2023 semester. Students will be able to report incidents on campus and track incidents that have occurred for updates, meaning the website will also act as a long-term archive of those incidents.

“Really, it provides information about what incident you’ve observed or anything else that you can share about it,” Oyler said. “It does provide an opportunity to be anonymous and to upload photos that you might have, and then that will go to the campus climate teams, then they will work to put incidents on the website and then communicate back out at that point.”

The Campus Climate Team is currently discussing how they will send out notifications of these incidents. Currently, students receive an announcement for incidents, moving forward, the website will be the new resource for students to find out more information about incidents.

Previous incidents such as the swastika found earlier this semester and the racist slurs graffitied on the stop sign are not currently included in the archive. However, after suggestions from the student senators, Oyler said they may include the incidents that occurred from the beginning of the fall semester.

Salayellece Neal, event chair for the NAACP student chapter at WSU, asked Oyler when students will get a public apology for the recent incidents on campus.

“All we really want is for somebody to just stand up and be like, ‘We’re sorry this is hap-

pening to you guys,’” Neal said.

Oyler said WSU is trying to have a place where the university can be more transparent about incidents on campus and how it can respond.

“I’m sorry that these things are happening,” Oyler said. “What we’re trying to do is move with action.”

Another issue community members and senators brought up was to change the name of the website so students do not confuse Campus Climate with climate change efforts.

The student senate then addressed providing resources for a fundraiser charity ball sponsored by Fraternity and Sorority Life that gives proceeds to the Christmas box house.

The student senate also approved a motion to fund $800 for a Veterans Appreciation and Nurses Appreciation soup luncheon at the Davis Campus. The funding will be provided

by Veteran Student Senator Alex Healy from a previous fundraising event that occurred last week.

El 13 de noviembre, el senado estudiantil de Weber State University habló sobre el Centro de Recursos LGBT y el nuevo sitio web Campus Climate, donde los estudiantes pueden reportar y encontrar información sobre incidentes en el campus.

La reunión comenzó hablando de cómo el Centro de Recursos LGBT celebraba el Día Internacional de la Memoria Transexual. El 14 de noviembre, tuvo lugar una sesión de Concientización a las 11:30 a.m. en la sala de juegos de Shepherd Union. El 15 de noviembre se proyectó un documental en el mismo lugar, seguido de una cena comunitaria.

Jessica Oyler, vicepresidenta de Acceso y Éxito Estudiantil, anunció el nuevo sitio web Campus Climate para abordar los recientes incidentes que tuvieron lugar en el campus durante el semestre de otoño de 2023. Los estudiantes podrán reportar incidentes del campus además de mantenerse informados sobre pasados sucesos, lo cual significa que el sitio web servirá como un registro a largo plazo de estos incidentes.

“Realmente, proporciona información sobre el incidente que has observado o cualquier otra cosa que puedas compartir sobre este”, dijo Oyler. “Da la opción de ser anónimo y de subir las fotos que puedas tener, esto le llegará al equipo de campus climate, y después estos trabajarán para subir los incidentes en la web y comunicarse de nuevo en este punto”.

El equipo de Campus Climate está hablando de cómo notificar a la gente sobre estos incidentes. Actualmente, los estudiantes reciben un anuncio con los incidentes, pero en el futuro, el sitio web será el nuevo recurso donde los estudiantes podrán encontrar más información de los incidentes.

De momento, incidentes previos como la esvástica que se encontró a principios de semestre y los insultos racistas pintados en la señal de stop no están incluidos en el registro. Sin embargo, tras las sugerencias del senado estudiantil, Oyler dijo que tal vez incluyan incidentes desde el comienzo del semestre de otoño.

Salayellece Neal, presidente del evento

Patience Bisamaza speaking about an event at the Senate Meeting.

para la sección estudiantil de la NAACP en WSU, preguntó a Oyler que cuándo van a recibir los estudiantes una disculpa pública por los recientes incidentes en el campus.

“Todo lo que realmente queremos es que alguien se levante y diga, ‘Lamentamos que esto os esté sucediendo’”, dijo Neal.

Oyler dijo que WSU está intentando encontrar un lugar donde la universidad pueda ser más transparente acerca de estos incidentes en el campus y cómo responder.

“Lamento que estas cosas estén pasando”, dijo Oyler. “Lo que estamos intentando hacer es avanzar con acciones”.

Otra preocupación que los miembros de la comunidad y senadores nombraron es la de cambiar el nombre de la web para que los estudiantes no confundan Campus Climate con información sobre esfuerzos contra el cambio climático.

El senado estudiantil luego mencionó dar recursos para un evento para recaudar fondos patrocinado por Fraternity and Sorority

Life que da ganancias a Christmas box house.

El senado estudiantil también aprobó una petición para financiar $800 para un almuerzo de agradecimiento a veteranos y enfermeras en Davis Campus. La financiación será

proporcionada por el Senador Estudiante Veterano Alex Healy gracias a un evento que recaudó fondos la semana pasada.

Kicking off the 2023-24 season with a 96–62 win over Benedictine University on Nov. 7 at the Dee Events Center, Weber State University’s men’s basketball team traveled to Moraga, California, for the first away game in the 2023 season to face off against Saint Mary’s College of California on Nov. 12.

After two quarters of play, the Wildcats upset No. 23-ranked Saint Mary’s 61–57. Junior forward Dillon Jones led the game in scoring and rebounding with a career high of 29 points and 10 rebounds. Jones also played all 40 minutes of this game to lead the Wildcats to victory.

“You know, I really thought going into the game if we play well then we have a chance, I really felt like our ball screen coverage is a strength of ours and if we executed and made a few shots we could have had a chance,” head coach Eric Duft said.

This victory was Weber State’s first win over a ranked opponent in 23 years.

Heading into halftime the Wildcats were down 37–26 and managed to come back from a 16 point deficit in the second half to stun the Gaels. Weber State went on a 22–4 run in the remaining 13 minutes of the game to take their first lead of the night.

Both teams shot a total of 40% from the field during the game. Saint Mary’s shot a total of

55 perfect in the first half but only 25% in the second half. The Wildcats shot 29% in the first half from the field and 50% from the field in the second half.

The Wildcats forced 9 turnovers in this upset and shot a total 9 of 11 from the free throw line.

On top of Jones’ 29 point performance, Steven VerPlancken and Alex Tew each had 8 points and Dyson Koehler added 7 points to the stat sheet.

“Preparation meet opportunity tonight, these guys prepared and they’re good players so when it’s time to make the plays it was presented to them and it was their night to make them,” Jones said.

After starting the season out 2–0, the Wildcats will be now traveling to Moncton, New Brunswick, Canada, for the Atlantic Slam this Friday-Sunday. The Wildcats will face off against Garnder-Webb, Yale and Colgate.

After leading the Wildcats to a 2–0 start to start off the 2022-23 spring season, Jones was named one of the National Players of the Week.

Jones is one of five players to have earned this award this last week.

Jones is the first Wildcat to earn National Player of the Week since Damian Lillard did it back in 2012. He’s also the first player to receive this honor since 2017. Jones was also named the Big Sky player of the week for the ninth time at Weber State.

El equipo de baloncesto masculino de la Universidad Estatal Weber, que arrancó la temporada 2023-24 con una victoria por 96-62 ante la Universidad Benedictine el 7 de noviembre en el Dee Events Center, viajó a Moraga, California, para disputar el primer partido fuera de casa de la temporada 2023 y enfrentarse al Saint Mary’s College de California el 12 de noviembre.

Tras dos cuartos de juego, los Wildcats se impusieron por 61-57 al Saint Mary’s, número 23 del ranking. El alero junior Dillon Jones lideró el partido en anotación y rebotes con 29 puntos y 10 rebotes. Jones también jugó los 40 minutos de este partido para llevar a los Wildcats a la victoria.

“Realmente pensé que si jugábamos bien tendríamos una oportunidad, realmente sentí que nuestra cobertura de pantalla de pelota es una fortaleza nuestra y si ejecutábamos y hacíamos algunos tiros podríamos haber tenido una oportunidad”, dijo el entrenador Eric Duft.

Esta victoria fue la primera de Weber State sobre un rival clasificado en 23 años.

Al llegar al descanso, los Wildcats perdían por 37-26 y lograron remontar una desventaja de 16 puntos en la segunda parte para sorprender a los Gaels. Weber State encadenó una racha de 22-4 en los 13 minutos restantes del partido para tomar su primera ventaja de la noche.

Ambos equipos lanzaron un total del 40% en tiros de campo durante el partido. Saint Mary’s lanzó un total de 55 tiros perfectos en la primera parte, pero sólo un 25% en la segunda. Los Wildcats tiraron un 29% en la primera mitad desde el campo y un 50% en la segunda mitad.

Los Wildcats forzaron 9 pérdidas de balón y lanzaron un total de 9 de 11 desde la línea de tiros libres.

Además de los 29 puntos de Jones, Steven VerPlancken y Alex Tew anotaron 8 puntos cada uno y Dyson Koehler añadió 7 puntos a la hoja de estadísticas.

“La preparación se encontró con la oportunidad esta noche, estos chicos se prepararon y son buenos jugadores, así que cuando llegó el momento de hacer las jugadas se les presentó y fue su noche para hacerlas”, dijo Jones.

Después de empezar la temporada con un 2-0, los Wildcats viajarán a Moncton, New Brunswick, Canadá, para disputar el Atlantic Slam del viernes al domingo. Los Wildcats se enfrentarán a Garnder-Webb, Yale y Colgate.

Después de llevar a los Wildcats a un comienzo de 2-0 para iniciar la temporada de primavera 2022-23, Jones fue nombrado uno de los Jugadores Nacionales de la Semana. Jones es uno de los cinco jugadores que han ganado este premio esta última semana.

Jones es el primer Wildcat que gana el premio al Jugador Nacional de la Semana desde que Damian Lillard lo consiguiera en 2012.

También es el primer jugador en recibir este honor desde 2017. Jones también fue nombrado jugador Big Sky de la semana por novena vez en Weber State.

Anna:Graduation photos are an important part of commemorating that cap and gown graduation moment, but it can be difficult figuring out the perfect set-up to capture those commemorative photos.

This photo map gives you the perfect visual as to those locations around Weber State University’s campus for you to pose for the camera in your graduation get-ups, that are both photo-worthy and represent your Wildcat roots here at Weber State.

If you’re still in need of some further inspiration for those big photos, try out a variety of poses and angles that capture the importance and the celebration of your graduation day.

A very popular one is to use your cap and gown as props for your photos. You can throw them up in the air — or at least pretend to so you don’t lose it to the wind — have your gown draped over your shoulder or even be putting them on over your planned outfit, just to give you a chance to show off your outfit as well as your cap and gown.

Don’t forget to use the locations shown around campus to your benefit alongside those poses; they can go along well in capturing your memories of being a Wildcat here at Weber State and your journey forward after you graduate.

Sara: With graduation just around the corner, we’d like to share 10 grad photo-worthy areas on campus: 1.The W rock. This is an obvious place for graduation photos because you can show off

your school pride.

2. The clock tower. There are many different areas around campus where you can take photos with the clock tower in view. The clock tower is an iconic Weber monument that is perfect for graduation photos.

3. The south side of the Wattis Business building. Wattis has reflective walls that create an aesthetic background for photos.

4. The duck pond. Currently, the duck pond is under renovation. However, once that’s done, it should be returned to a beautiful place that would make for a great on-campus photoshoot.

5. Stairs leading to the top of campus. Using stairs in your photoshoot can allow for less awkward posing by giving you a place to sit.

The stairs leading up to the top of campus are framed with trees and shrubs, making it picture-worthy.

6. The grass area behind the Stewart Library.

This area has plenty of trees, which is great for posed portraits.

7. The murals inside the Kimball Visual Arts Center. In the arts center, there are murals on the wall viewable from the first floor that follow up the stairs to the second. These murals would be a good background for a photoshoot.

8. North of the Marriott Health building.

Next to Marriott, there is a scenic area where you can take nature photos with the mountains in the background.

9. Another iconic monument to take graduation photos with at Weber is the Louis F. Moench statue on the west end of the Ogden campus.

10. Outside Shepherd Union on the north side. The wall on the north of Shepherd Union has vines growing on brick, creating a pretty background for photos.

1. La rocka W: Obviamente es un lugar para fotos de graduación para enseñar el orgullo de la universidad.

2. La torre del reloj: Hay muchos diferentes lugares por campus que pueden ver la torre del reloj en la foto. La torre del reloj es un monumento de Weber que es perfecto por las fotos de graduación.

3. El lado sur del edificio Wattis Business: Wattis tiene paredes reflectoras que son bonitas para el fondo de fotos.

4. El estanque de patos: Ahorita el estanque de patos está en renovación. Pero cuando ya terminen con la renovación va ser un lugar hermoso para tomar fotos.

5. Escaleras que llegan a campus: Usando escaleras cuando toman fotos puede ayudar para los que no saben en que pose hacerse fotos, dándole un lugar para sentarse. También hay árboles y arbustos en el fondo de la foto.

6. La área de pasto detrás de Stewart Li-

brary: La área tiene bastantes árboles que son perfectos para hacer poses diferentes.

7. Los murales dentro de Kimball Visual Arts Center: En el centro de arte en las paredes del primer piso que sigue al segundo piso. Estos murales serían un fondo bueno para las fotos.

8. Al norte del edificio Marriott Health: Al Lado de Marriott, hay una área bonita donde pueden tomar fotos con la naturaleza con montañas en el fondo.

9. Louis F. Moench estatua: Otro monumento icónico para tomarse fotos de graduación en Weber es con esta estatua en el extremo oeste del campus de Ogden.

10. Pared fuera de Shepherd Unión en el lado norte: La pared del lado norte de Shepherd Union tiene enredadera creciendo en los ladrillos, creando una escena preciosa para las fotos.

Las fotos de graduación son una parte importante de conmemoración al momento de la graduación con la toga y birrete, pero es difícil averiguar adonde poder capturar esas fotos especiales.

Este mapa te da una ilustración perfecta de todos los locaciones por el campus de la universidad de Weber State, para que posicionan para la cámara en su vestuario de graduación, y presentar sus raíces Wildcat aquí en Weber

State.

Si todavía necesitan más inspiración para las fotos, pueden probar varios ángulos y poses para capturar la importancia del día de graduación.

Algo popular es usar la toga y el birrete como utilería para las fotos. Puedes tirarlo en el aire-o fingen hacerlo para no perderlo en el viento- tener su toga sobre el hombro o ponerlo sobre su conjunto del dia, nada mas para dar una oportunidad de enseñar su ropa como la toga y el birrete.

No se olviden de usar las locaciones por campus con las poses; también en capturando las memorias de siendo un Wildcat aquí en Weber State y por los próximos pasos de vida después de graduar se.

Con la graduación que está cerca, nos gustaría enseñar 10 lugares por campus para tomarse fotos de graduación.
