Eating Locally: Building Community Through Food

by Désirée White, Copy Editor

On Thursday, April 21, a forum was held at Mott Community College to discuss a new urban movement: community gardens. Three panelists discussed their roles in integrating the 170 existing community gardens into the city of Flint. The panelists were Erin Caudell of the Ruth Mott Foundation, Shantae Burke of the Genesee County Community Mental Health, and Dick Ramsdell, manager of the Flint Farmers’ Market. All three stressed the importance of locally grown food and the effects it could have on the health, economy, and growth of the city.

According to the County Health Ratings, Genesee County sits in last place (out of 82) for health behaviors, such as smoking, obesity, and sexually transmitted infections, in Michigan. It is in 77th place for health outcomes (mortality and morbidity). Ms. Burke commented that a “person with mental health issues has only a 50% chance of survival” living in Flint. Ms. Caudell pointed out that there are only two major chain grocery stores within the city limits, which makes it difficult for those without proper transportation to have decent food access. On the other hand, Flint has numerous fast food restaurants, convenience, and liquor stores, which are the places many of the city’s citizens will go for food.

One-third of the city is owned by the Land Bank or the city, making it available for development. Therefore, the community garden move-

ment is meant to “increase access to healthier and better food” and “grow together as a unit” by utilizing this land for the public good A particular organization that has cropped up to help with the movement is Edible Flint. The organization holds urban gardening training and other workshops to educate citizens who want to grow their own food and even sell it at local venues. Burke spoke about her experience with an extremely poor neighborhood that, while it was able to sell only about 10 percent of its crops, distributed the remainder to its residents. Other urban growers can sell their fresh produce at the market or to the many local restaurants. Ideally, this would educate citizens to make healthier eating choices, improving health, teach them how to prepare food for their families and help put some of the money for food back into the local economy.

Flint Music Venue Re-Opening

by Brian Mills

In the past, the Flint music scene has given birth to great bands such as Chiodos and The Swellers. These bands got their start on the stage of the Flint Local 432; a venue opened in the 1990s and closed down in the mid 2000s. With Flint’s downtown district growing, its time the venue opened back up and put on great shows once again.

The C.S. Mott Foundation has awarded the venue $200,000 to get their doors back open.

The grant will take care of everything from fixing old plumbing to installing heating and air conditioning in the 1930s building at 124 W. First Street. However, the grant will not cover the stage equipment. Lights, sound, and staging will have to be funded by other means.

The early shows at the Local gave teens a place to hang out on the weekends in a safe environment. The venue is open to all ages, so this is one of the few clubs in Flint that will offer alcohol-free events. This feature of the venue may spark new interest in the downtown area to teens, bringing business to the local food

joints in the area. Step by step, downtown Flint can become a vibrant place for teens and adults alike. The Flint Local is a large step in this direction. There will be music for everyone, from alternative rock to punk to post-hardcore.

The venue also plans on hosting a variety of events appealing to those not interested in the music scene. The owner, Joel Rash, hopes to bring theater, film, and dance to the genres of events. In addition to evening events, after school study programs are currently on the drawing board for the venue. The spread of events will definitely increase the draw to the downtown area.

Joel Rash began by setting up rock shows in the basement of Capitol Theater on second street. Rash was never limited to hosting rock shows. He has worked closely with the city to improve the way people see Flint. From the downtown facade improvement program to giving teens a place to have fun and be safe, Joel has done it all.

Along with community gardens, Mr. Ramsdell mentioned that Flint is “very well placed” to “raise a variety of fruits and vegetables yearround” with the establishment of hoop houses.

A hoop house resembles a green house in that it extends the growing season, but it is less expensive to maintain and establish. One hoop house has already been built on Court Street, allowing the urban farmers to grow greens during the colder months. Caudell says more would go up, but there are numerous “challenges in policy and resources.” Other projects that indicate Flint’s potential include an orchard planted by Burke’s group at Fifth Avenue and Mason Street., a produce “dollar store” due to open in August, and the Flint Farmer’s Market, which is expanding its selection of produce grown and cultivated within the city limits.

AB Security Update

by Matt Gessler, Editor-in-Chief

As of April 6th, the Academic Building entrance facing Chevrolet Avenue requires card access at all times. Many are probably wondering why this entrance is locked while nearly all others remain open during business hours.

Betsy Homsher, Interim Associate Provost and Dean of Students, provided the answers to these questions. When asked why just the Chevrolet entrance is locked at all times, Homsher responded, “The campus itself is very safe, so I do not like the idea of having all entrances locked at all times. Plus, as a university, we provide access to knowledge and ideas. A locked campus seems to undermine that concept. Our goal is to provide as much freedom

of movement as possible, while ensuring the safety of students, faculty, and staff. Practical considerations include providing access for people who don’t have their ID cards, the tendency to prop open locked doors, etc. As for the Chevrolet entrance, we locked the doors because employees expressed safety concerns about strangers entering from the Chevrolet entrance who had no reason to be on campus.

That’s what prompted the change. We struggle constantly to balance the safety and security of our community and try to be as responsive as possible when anyone feels threatened.”

Survey Update by the Planning and Assessment Council

Thanks and congratulations! First-year students and seniors were invited to participate in the National Survey of Student Engagement (NSSE) during February and March. This survey from Indiana University provides colleges and universities valuable information about academic expectations and support, as perceived by their students.

41.7% of the eligible Kettering students responded, putting us well above the national average. 39.1% of Kettering students participated in 2009, and 34.6% did so in 2007, when we first joined the study. Kettering uses the NSSE every other year, alternating with the Student Satisfaction Inventory, to collect student opinions with a national survey.

This year’s results will be available at the end of August and will be posted on Blackboard MECH 522 – Engineering Analysis along with the previous results. The Planning & Assessment Council, which has four student Classes Added: members, will review the results and develop MATH 408 – Probability and Statistics or plans to increase student engagement and imMATH 310 – Biostatistics prove Kettering’s educational opportunities.

Flint Farmers’ Market

Although spring has not quite arrived, the Flint Farmers’ Market, located on the north side of Fifth Avenue just west of the Holiday Inn, is still bustling on a Saturday afternoon.

The outdoor vendors probably will not be setting up until the weather gets warmer, but the inside still has plenty of interesting vendors with various products that are sold on Tuesdays, Thursdays, and Saturdays until five in the evening.

Upon entering the market, there is a vendor selling fresh baked goods. Opposite that sits a turkey deli next to a beef vendor, a donut and cookie seller, and the way to the second level.

Walking through, the variety of goods for purchase are astounding. More than half of the north side of the building contains fresh produce at very reasonable prices. For the cheese connoisseur, they have a vendor with cases of cheese from various countries. They are numerous bakery-style vendors that sell various

bread, bagels, cookies, and cakes. One can even buy fresh eggs and poultry. Within all the food, there is a florist, a jeweler, and a toy stall.

Finally, at the east side of the market sits D’Vine Wines, a specialty wine shop. The collection resembles that of Trader Joe’s or Whole Foods, although it is much smaller. The middle section is dedicated to various Michigan wines, such as those from St. Julian’s winery (including the non-alcoholic ones) and specialties from Traverse City. Along the walls, wines are sorted by both type and country, with one wall devoted to various specialty beers.

Every stall has a sign indicating the origin of each vendor. All originate from Flint or a nearby town. The market prides itself on featuring local businesses and produce. Although it is not a “growers-only” market, many of the vendors are local farmers. Along with the various sellers, the market also features various demos, events, and classes throughout the month.

Music Venue Reopens ...continued from page 1

Though no dates are set for the opening day, the venue plans to host its first event in June 2011.”We’re still on track to reopen this summer,” Rash states. Bands slated to play the venue include local acts, The Third Horizon and Kid Nothing. These bands, along with other local and national touring acts will, no doubt, “bring the house down.” Previous bands

to inhabit the 432 stage include Yellowcard, Avenged Sevenfold, Underoath, and Atreyu.

With the Machine Shop dominating the current rock scene, the Local will surely give them a run for their money.

With the hard work and planning from owner Joel Rash, the venue will be the place to be in June 2011.

Gas Prices Gone Amok?

by Rebeccah MacKinnon, Staff

With gas prices in Flint nearing four dollars a gallon, students have been up in arms with complaints. “Gas should just not be this expensive!” they say, yearning for the days of their youth when ninety-nine cents a gallon was the norm.

But is gas really that expensive? Historically, the United States has had some of the cheapest gas prices in the world. Even today, the US national gas prices are little more than half of the lowest gas prices in the European Union. The Netherlands tops the chart, av-

eraging $9.39 a gallon, while the US averages $3.83 a gallon.

Why the dramatic price difference? Mostly, it has to do with taxes. Gas in the European Union is subject to a Value Added Tax (VAT), a type of consumption tax not found in the United States , in addition to fuel taxes and country specific taxes.Thus, their gas prices are much higher.

So the next time you’re filling up your tank on the way home from Meijer, remember: it could always be worse.

Eating Locally ...continued from page 1 Among the rampant optimism, there are still some concerns with the community gardens. In a city with such a high crime rate, someone asked about people destroying or vandalizing the gardens and hoop houses.

Ramsdell vehemently asserted that the “garden becomes a neighborhood treasure” and Burke readily agreed. Another concern involved taking the market away from the local farmers already selling their produce at venues such as the Flint Farmers’ Market. Based on the huge demand for food, Ramsdell replied that the local farmers are “not even coming close to the demand,” and a rural farmer in the audience spoke in support of these types of initiatives.

Someone else questioned the quality of the soil in places, such as Chevy in the Hole, that were sites of industrial plants and often contain large amounts of lead. Caudell and Burke offered that crops can grown in raised beds or planters for the short-term, and special plants can be put in the soil to remove the contaminants long-term.

Another solution could be to pick a different location, due to the vast amount of vacant land in the city.

This movement also allows for plenty of involvement from the university community.

Caudell said there is “a lot of room for innovation,” and Edible Flint has specific programs to work with and receive input from the younger generation. Programs have started in the local schools, and a set of students already has a plot that they can work with. The idea of community gardens was created to help improve the health of the local populace, increase awareness about the origin of the food, and stimulate the local economy. Most of all, though, as Ramsdell put it, “It has to do with rebuilding community.”

New Chairs Cause a Buzz in B-Section

As B-Section settles back into school term, some students find themselves settling into a new style of chair. Rooms 3332 and 3334 in the Academic Building have received a makeover, the most noticeable feature of which being new Steelcase node chairs. These chairs feature a storage space, swivel desk arm, and a surprisingly comfortable plastic seat that can move around the room on casters.

These chairs were installed as a part of a larger effort to modernize and update the Academic Building. The Provost appointed four department heads, Professors Gawarecki (Math), Wilkinson (Liberal Studies), Borchers (Business), and Roughani (Physics), to head this project, which involved incorporating more technology into rooms and giving them a more modern look. Another goal of this renovation was to bring more of what Karen Wilkinson termed “active learning” into the classroom.

“Incorporating group work into the curriculum makes the learning process more engaging,” Wilkinson said. “That’s what these chairs were designed to facilitate. They’re a step towards the technology-based classroom environment we’d like to have.”

The Physical Plant provided the faculty

committee with 3 different chair selections that met their needs of active learning and modernized appeal. After trying out the chairs with a variety of faculty members, it was decided that the node chair was the most comfortable and the most modern looking chairs. “It’s what’s new in chairs for college students,” said Andrew Borchers, who also confirmed that students were not a major part of the decision process.

“We had the sample chairs in the Faculty Senate room, where the student representatives on the Senate tried them. However, we did not actively seek out students to give their input. If we were to expand the project, though, we’d definitely consult them to figure out what worked and what didn’t.”

“The great thing about furniture is that it can always be moved,” said Joe Asperger, the Physical Plant representative who worked with the faculty committee on the project. “The Provost gives the word, and we can move them anywhere and put the old desks back in.” This addresses a big issue that students have brought up: the classrooms the node chairs were placed in traditionally hold Math and Computer Science lectures, which do not coalesce well with the active learning environment. Additionally,

there have been complaints that the small table size does not give students enough room for the materials necessary for class.

According to Wilkinson, there has been talk with the Registrar’s office to give priority to professors who want to use those classrooms for their active learning purpose. However, there is also competition for those rooms for the technological resources that were brought in during the renovation. “It’s a balancing act between professors who want to use the rooms to make sure everyone has what they need to help students learn,” said Wilkinson.

Robert Marius Moves to Radford University

by Isaac Meadows, A-Section Technician staff

After more than six years as Director of Greek Life at Kettering, Robert Marias has moved on. Mr. Marias is now serving as Assistant Director of Student Activities at Radford University, a public school in Virginia with more than 7500 undergraduates. Betsy Homsher, Dean of Students, will manage Department of Greek Life until a replacement is found.

When asked about his time at Kettering, Mr. Marias reflected on the expansion of the Greek system during his tenure, describing his efforts to instill “a sense of unity and cooperation”. His six years at Kettering, he commented, estab-

by Dr. David Benson and Jacob Crabill

In its second year of existence on campus, Kettering’s SAE Aero Design team (Team #11, “Terrific Tandem”) placed 10th out of 34 teams in their class at the 2011 Aero Design-West competition in Fort Worth, Texas. The purpose of the competition is to design & build an RC aircraft capable of lifting as much weight as possible within a given design envelope, including a 225” total length + width + height limit, and a specific engine to power the aircraft. The overall score for each team is separated into three parts: the Design Report, Technical Presentation and Flight Score. With the stiff competition seen in recent years, a team must have high scores in all three categories in order to win.

lished a sense of continuity in the enforcement of standards and held individual chapters accountable to their values. Mr. Marias credited the strength of the Greek system at Kettering to its 90-year history, which extends nearly to the school’s founding.

When asked about favorite memories from Kettering, Mr. Marias recalled the 2008 construction of a 31-foot high block tower by the Up ‘Til Dawn Committee. The event, which was held to raise money and awareness for the St. Jude Children’s Research Hospital, used hundreds of Kapla blocks to construct a

slender tower in a corner of Kettering’s Great Court. Mr. Marias fondly recalled challenges associated with the project, which ranged from placing delicate blocks to becoming certified to use a hydraulic lift. The payoff, he said, was the publicity that the event generated for Kettering, including a video of the tower’s demolition that garnered more than 100,000 YouTube hits.

---Editor’s Note: The Technician wishes Robert great success at Radford and all the best in his future career.

SAE Aero Design Kettering went for an unusual design this year – a tandem wing aircraft, where two similarly-sized wings are offset mostly horizontally along the aircraft, rather than vertically as in a biplane. This design provides much more stability to the aircraft, which was clearly evident at the competition, where the Terrific Tandem flew absolutely spectacularly in all conditions, including up to 30mph winds. Many teams commented on both the unique appearance of the aircraft and its surprising stability in flight, with one long-time faculty advisor stating that the Terrific Tandem was, in fact, the best-flying tandem aircraft he had ever seen flown at an Aero Design competition.

For the first several rounds of flight, Kettering was actually within the top 5 teams in terms of flight score, and well within the top ten in terms of overall score. By the end of the first day of competition, the team met their goal of lifting at least 20 lbs of payload successfully (20.73 lbs, actually), with an additional unscored flight (due to an over-limit takeoff) with over 23 lbs of payload. Due to a top-ten finish, Kettering now has bragging rights in the form of a guaranteed team number for the 2012 competition; so be sure to root for Team #10 – and their Terrific Tandem 2.0 – next year at the competition in California!

Ping Pong Club

This group is made up of the few and proud ping pong elitists of Kettering University. They spend hours on the weekends watching Chinese championships on live streams or playing against one another in the recreation center. I interviewed Colby Poe, Junior I Computer Science major and one of the co-founders of the club, about the group, their ethics, and how they manage to make time for the sport.

According to Colby, the official members and anyone else interested meet every Monday at 8pm in the recreation center. “We also play almost everyday at 4:30 in the room across from the Business Department. [They] are not official meetings, but are still fun,” he says. When asked how they manage to make time for the projects, and what [they] are working on for sport with their school work, Colby commented school.” that “Ethan Koester, the acting president, [and Ping Pong club is the place to come hangout the others in the club] like to talk about classes, with friends, make new ones and just have a
