Plans for the new student center on campus Natalie Boonstra Contributor
Southern has begun the first steps in constructing the new Bietz Center for Student Life. One of those steps includes working on the sewage and waste systems that are located below the parking lot next to the Thatcher and Thatcher South dorms which has raised concerns about parking. In recent years some students felt parking on campus has been especially tight and have expressed difficulty in finding a space. “It is ridiculously hard to find a parking spot, especially near Thatcher. Driving in at night can be stressful because I don’t know if I’ll get a spot,” said Elaina Bergondo, freshman
general studies major. Students have been advised that they can park in other lots near Thatcher and Talge. Even though this is a temporary loss, in order to have adequate room for the new Student Center the parking spaces in front of and behind McKee Library will be taken away. Surveyors are currently working on a design for additional parking to replace the spaces that will be lost. The Financial Administration department will finalize all of these details in November, and the actual building process will begin in April 2018. Students can anticipate the completion of the building in about two years, in March of 2020. “This project is funded,” said Marty Hamilton,” and we want students to know this isn’t just

something we’re talking about. It’s actually going to happen very soon.” Despite possible inconveniences, many students are still optimistic about the outcome. “I think the new student center

is a fantastic idea,” said Gavin Finch, Student Association (SA) vice president and senior english major. “The university is showing its students that they matter by putting forth so much effort to build something for us. In
reality there was nobody forcing the university to put so much effort into raising the money, and I think it is very thoughtful of them to do this.”
Fruition Lab happening today Tierra hayes News Editor
Fruition Labs, held today in the Ackerman Auditorium from 8 a.m. to 5:30 p.m, brings together a five-time Emmy award winner, a guy who started coding in his SAU dorm room and built a com-
pany that sold for nine figures, an award-winning wedding dress designer, and someone who forged his way into investment banking and broke into the big-name tech scene. According to their website, Fruition allows students to “hear
from, connect with and be inspired by experienced CEOs and founders.” Students who signed up for Fruition labs paid a discounted fee of $20, as opposed the general $100 cost to attend.

Doug Batchelor speaks at GYC
Summer Shelby Staff Writer
Crowds of every age piled into the Collegedale Church (date?) to hear Pastor Doug Batchelor give his five-part sermon for Generation of Youth for Christ for the Southeast (GYCSE). [Was this officially a week of prayer? I thought they were only having services from Thursday to Friday? I could be wrong, but I think we should double check] Batchelor delivered a message titled “Rooted: Standing Through the Storm” about how to stand through the storms of life by being “rooted through Christ.” “You not only need roots that are deep, you need roots that are wrapped around something;
you need roots that are healthy,” Batchelor said. “We fill up with so much spiritual junk food, that the devil is working overtime to make us lose our appetite for that which is good.” Not knowing exactly who was going to speak, Josh Draget, GYCSE vice president of communication and junior computer science major, said GYCSE did not consider Pastor Batchelor to speak at first. “Not because we didn’t want him to come,” Draget said, “but because we didn’t think it would be possible; he is often booked years in advance.” After not having a speaker lined up, GYCSE decided to reach out to Batchelor to see what would happen. “Surprisingly, he was available
on the exact dates GYCSE was scheduled, and the planning effort took full swing,” Draget said. Sophomore nursing major Lauren Shelby talked about the impact Batchelor’s sermons had on her. “It’s really interesting to hear his inspirational story of having everything he could possibly want to then reducing himself to nothing,” Shelby said. “It shows how money really doesn’t fill the hole in our hearts, and it’s only God that can do that.” Some students, like junior public relations major Lizzie Williams, were more skeptical of Batchelor’s arrival. “I am not an expert theologian by any standards, but there have been messages preached by

I AM THEY visits Southern: A review Audrey Fankhanel Staff Writer
The Christian band I AM THEY performed at Iles P.E. Center for vespers on Oct. 27. Lead singers Abbie Parker, Matt Hein and Jon McConnell began their concert worship with songs “No Longer Slaves” by Bethel Music and “Good Good Father” by Chris Tomlin along with some of their own hits, such as “Love is Mine” and their newest song, “Crowns.” Artistic lighting, indie folk beats and instruments such as the harmonium, banjo and concert bass drum set the ambiance. “Sitting there, I felt we were united as a school,” said Lizzie Williams, junior public relations major. “Even though there are underlying tensions, we felt like we were one…. It gave me chills.” “The concert was really fun,” said Alan Handy, sophomore chemistry major. “They had really nice and upbeat songs; they just put you in the mood to worship.” After the program, students were able to meet with band members and take pictures. The band members started up con-

A flag processional will take place during the service, followed by a missions exposition encouraging students to serve in the mission field. “Alumni participation in the
flag processional and the missions exposition will encourage a lifetime of service for students,” said Brennon Kirstein, Southern chaplain. “It is side-byside recruitment, strengthening someone’s desire who may be on the fence about serving as a student missionary.” Southern graduate James Appel, ’96, will speak at the

It was very genuine; they were genuinely worshipping,” freshman communication studies major Madison Gang said. I AM THEY was born in 2008 after a night of worship that five churches in Carson, Nevada collaborated for Halloween. After that night, band members agreed that God was calling them to a greater mission. “We all have the mindset that

The reformation and our heritage 6

Edyn-Mae Stevenson Religion Editor
If you’ve been out of your room at all in the last couple months, you might’ve noticed that there’s a lot of buzz going on this fall about the Reformation. That’s because this year marks the 500th anniversary of Martin Luther nailing his 95 Theses to the door of the Wittenberg Church. It’s a proud day for Protestants all over the world. Martin Luther’s Theses called

and his contemporaries to thank for the Bible we hold so dear in our walk with God. All of that is incredible and wonderful, and you’ll be hearing so much more about it in the weeks to come, but what I
The problem with guilt Grant Vogel Contributor
Since the birth of sin on Earth, every human being has been given a choice: right or wrong. To obey God, or to follow Satan. To lift people up with kind words, or to gossip about them. To see members of the opposite sex as beautiful creations of God, or to objectify them. Being human, we very often choose wrong, and this failure almost always brings with it the all-too-familiar feeling of guilt. While guilt is a great tool in discerning what is right or wrong, guilt can be a moral
poison if dwelt on. Letting guilt fester in the heart after committing a sin solves nothing. Instead, it causes pain and makes it easier to justify more sin. For example, imagine that you used to be an alcoholic. You had been sober for a year, but you just recently failed and got blackout drunk one a late night. You woke up the next morning hungover and full of guilt, which if let loose will cause you to make excuses such as, “Well, I already crossed the line,” or “I’m already unclean,” leading to “Might as well drink more,”
and the process restarts. If you don’t take a stand against guilt in every sinful moment, you will never break out of this vicious cycle. In his book “Mere Christianity, “C.S. Lewis discusses obedience to God, stressing that if we trust Christ, we should take His advice and obey Him not because we need to be saved, but because He has begun to save us already. Coming at the fight from an “already saved” perspective can help to silence excess guilt and give us the strength to make the right choices.

think the 500th anniversary of the Reformation really stands for is an emphasis on Christian heritage. It’s a good time to look back on our own heritage as Adventists and to reflect on the good and the bad so that we can understand where we have come from and get a clearer picture of where we’re going. The Adventist church is going through some growing pains right now. There’s a new generation of young people who are stepping up and asking for a change—a reform, if you will—in
the way things are done. This transition is to be expected; it’s natural. It’s the law of time that generations will come and go and bring new ideas and perspectives with them. But we can’t use this as an excuse to discount the hard work that 500 years worth of Christians have accomplished for us. We’re standing on the shoulders of those who’ve walked before us. Let’s take this time to reflect on their legacy, so we can move forward and upward and closer to our true home.

opinion Do not belittle me Those who hunger in silence
Southern Accent 7
Thursday, November 2, 2017
Abby Hunt Contributor
Do not belittle me. Do not question me. I heard men across campus say they needed a warning before reading the two-page spread on domestic violence in the last issue of the Accent due to the graphic nature of the stories. To some, that “need” may seem like a legitimate concern, but to a woman like me, a survivor of rape, it is belittling. Where was my “graphic” warning before my mind, body and soul were violated? Many other women across campus share similar experiences. Where were our “graphic” warnings? The Accent provided a platform to share the atrocities that women like me experience every day in this corrupt world, a world in which girls are conditioned to think that they are required to dress “modestly.” A world in which our mothers taught us to dress modestly from the age of five “because boys like to look at girls.” In middle school, our mothers told us that “if boys see certain parts of your body, they get excited and can’t control themselves.” In high school, our mothers said, “If you don’t dress modestly, men won’t respect you.” I assure you that there are women on this campus who blame themselves for being assaulted due to their “lack of modesty.” A woman’s clothing choices should never dictate her safety or the level of respect she deserves. Women and men should be free to express themselves without fear. I will never forget receiving a call from my best friend, a student at UTC, telling me that
she was raped, and it was her fault because she wasn’t dressed “modestly.” This should not happen, ever.
“A women’s clothing choices should never dictate her safety or the level of respect she deserves.’”
This weekend, I chose to join the #MeToo movement by posting on social media using the hashtag. Within 30 minutes of my posting, I received a message from a male friend saying, “Did that actually happen to you, or are you just supporting the movement?” Do not question me, do not question us, do not question our solidarity with inquiries like the previous. The #MeToo movement provides the safety of ambiguity. It has taken me five years to be able to say that I was raped, and while I am not ashamed, I should be able to support others without being questioned as to whether something “actually” happened to me. Survivors like me live to look into the future with hope, with strength and with knowledge of what the world is and what it could be. We are humans, we are mothers, daughters, sisters and we are women. Do not question us. Do not belittle us. Support us.

Two years ago, I was only able to have one meal per day, for one whole semester. What may seem like a disordered dietary restriction was in fact a means of necessity, because during this time, I just couldn’t afford to eat regular meals. That might be a shock to many on campus who would ask, “Why not get a meal plan?” My simple answer: I didn’t have the money. At the time, I was taking a 19-credit course load and working about 10-15 hours a week. There was simply no time to eat, and even worse, there was no money. My reality is the reality of many students on this campus and on campuses across the nation. Students are secretly going hungry because they are too poor to afford extra meals, and they are ashamed to say it. We’re college students. We’re used to being low on cash, and usually, we’re able to work and earn enough to mitigate this time of poverty
until we (hopefully) graduate and (hopefully) earn more. On many occasions, I’ve joked with my friends about not having any money and being “literally poor.” But behind these jokes, there’s often a nugget of truth. According to the 2011-12 census, 15.2 percent of the entire US population was below the poverty line. In contrast, 51.8 percent of all college students (living off campus and not with relatives) were below the poverty line. That’s a staggering percentage and it’s happening to students just like you. When I was only eating a meal a day, several thoughts went through my head. Repeatedly, I asked myself, “How long is this paycheck going to last me? If I eat now, will I feel hungry later? For how long can I afford to work out? I don’t want to lose too many calories.” My most constant thought was, “Can anyone tell?” My biggest worry wasn’t that I couldn’t eat, though that was a constant concern, but it was that my
friends would be able to tell, and they would feel awkward about inviting me places for the simple fact that I couldn’t afford to eat off campus. Or on campus. Or just to eat anything that wasn’t rice and potatoes. I was lucky to have roommates at the time who loved to cook. They would graciously share their homemade meals, and I would calculate how much lunch I could afford to buy during the rest of the week if circumstances necessitated it. I got caught in an unfortunate situation, and I’m not alone. One day, I’d like to see that college students are able to live comfortably while in school, because goodness knows we already go through a lot. Hopefully, there comes a day when these census numbers will change, and the “poor college student” trope will be eradicated. Hopefully, there comes a day when poverty doesn’t rule our lives. We can only hope that things will change.

How to celebrate holidays like an American Kristen Vonnoh Lifestyle Editor
For anybody who’s abroad and wondering how holidays are celebrated in America, or for an American who’s lost the true spirit and meaning of American holidays, here’s a short guide on celebrating some of the most popular holidays like a true American: 1) The real spirit of Thanksgiving is being thankful, but for Americans, it means eating to your heart’s content, avoiding family members you don’t like but pretend you do and then indulging in greed by participating in the original Hunger Games: Black Friday. May the odds be ever in your favor. 2) In order to celebrate Christmas like a true American, be prepared to start celebrating it in August. For bonus points, leave your Christmas lights on

all year long. After awakening from your pumpkin coma, you’ll crawl out of bed to a warm, American Christmas brawl over the new Starbucks cup design.

before you begin. Spend lots of money on expensive work-out gear, planners to keep yourself organized and a membership to Whole Foods (but silently switch to Trader Joe’s when nobody’s watching). For good measure, don’t forget to mask your failures with a new social media account. #NewYearNewInstaNewMe 4) Love. So pure. So sweet. How could it ever be tainted? Here comes America! To celebrate Valentine’s Day like a true American, scrutinize all your past and present relationships. Single and need a date? Let us introduce you to Tinder. If you’re lucky enough to have been boo-d up by now, the quality of your relationship will be measured by how many gifts you receive or give. You can make up for your failed resolutions by drowning your
sorrows in tons of chocolate and Ben & Jerry’s. 5) Last but definitely not least, the greatest American holiday is your own birthday. Make sure to be awfully offended when expected to come in to work; find a way to mention your birthday in every conversation (be cute and demure, so nobody suspects anything). Tell everyone you don’t have anything planned, which is code for wanting a surprise party. If you don’t get one, post passive aggressively on social media. Let’s face it, everyone thinks their birthday is a national holiday. At the end of the day, our holidays should be just like us: big, loud and better than everyone else. P.S. this is satire, so put your pitchforks down.

Five alternative sports you may not have heard of Brandon Beneche Managing Editor
Greetings, literal and hypothetical athletes! For those of you who are tired of football, loathe baseball, and pass on basketball here are a few alternative sports you might want to start following or playing. 1. Wife-carrying This spouse-friendly sport originated in Finland and features the tandem of a husband and a wife (though singles can participate too). The goal of wife-carrying is for the male teammate to carry his female teammate through a specialized obstacle course in the shortest amount of time. If you’re recently married or looking to put a little spark into your relationship, wife-carrying
Last week in sports:
might be the sport for you! 2. Cheese-rolling The Cooper’s Hill CheeseRolling and Wake is a yearly event held near Gloucester, England. The goal of cheeserolling is simple. Competitors race down a hill after a rolling wheel of cheese in hopes of catching it or crossing the finish line at the bottom before anyone else. For the lactose-tolerant, cheese-rolling presents a fine alternative to traditional races. 3. Sepak takraw You might think that sepak takraw looks like volleyball but with feet — and that’s because it is! Sepak takraw is most popular in Southeast Asia, and it functions similarly to volleyball. However, instead of using their hands to keep the ball in the air, players use their feet, knees,
chest and head. If you’re good at aerial maneuvers but chose not to join Gym Masters, give sepak takraw a shot! 4. Toe wrestling Toe wrestling borrows a lot from arm wrestling; it just
involves the feet. The goal of toe wrestling is to pin your opponent’s foot to the ground for three seconds. A match typically consists of three rounds, with one on the right foot, one on the left foot and then one on the
Toe wrestling
right foot again if a tiebreaker is needed. If you take footsie a bit too seriously, toe wrestling may very well be your true calling. 5. Bo-taoshi Bo-taoshi, Japanese for “polepulldown,” is quite the ordeal. The goal of the sport is to knock the other team’s pole below a 30 degree angle. What makes Bo-taoshi extra intense is the size of it participation. A total of 150 players participate, with 75 on the offense and 75 on the defense. If you have A LOT of friends, some time to kill and a couple of poles, I’m not sure what else you could possibly do. If you and your friends decide to try one of these sports, take a picture of it, post the picture on social media and use #SAUlife, and you could be in our next issue!
