TAB opens more tailgating spaces Tech Activities Board opened up more spaces for Raider Gate for the Texas Tech football game against Arkansas on Saturday.

Raider Gate is a student tailgate tradition that allows students to reserve a lot to tailgate in prior to the game, according to the TAB website.

McKenzie Hopson, a senior public relations major from Gatesville and president of TAB, said Raider Gate has undergone improvements this year.

Because a few students voiced complaints, TAB decided to take the opportunity to make the event better, she said.

The lots previously reserved for the stage in the past are now opened up for students to reserve, Hopson said.

Students can register online to reserve their passes, she said, and the cost is free for students.

Students can reserve up to two lots and student organizations can reserve up to six, Hopson said.

The major change this year is that no band will be playing during the tailgate, she said.

The new Hospitality Services food truck will be providing food, which can be purchased with dining bucks, for the students, Hopson said.

There will be music, she said, and televisions to watch pregame telecasts. ➤➤bcooney@dailytoreador.com

Tech moves up 4 slots in ranks Texas Tech moved up four slots in the annual ranking of private and public universities in the U.S. News and World Report.

The U.S. News and World Report rankings are released annually, and are generated through information provided by national colleges and universities, according to a Tech news release.

Among both private and public universities, Tech is ranked number 156 in the nation, and among solely public universities the university is ranked number 84, four spots ahead of last year’s 88, according to the release.

Tech’s four slot climb lands in the top 15 percent nationally and stands as the largest among the Big 12 and the second largest among league schools, according to the release.

Tech also reached number 47 for Best Colleges for Veterans, according to the release, number 93 for Best Undergraduate Business programs, and number 82 for Best Undergraduate Engineering programs. ➤➤ezambrycki@dailytoreador.com

Co-founder of LGBTQ festival discusses experience in conservative Lubbock

By AMY CUNNINGHAM La Vida editor

After various organizations had attempted to organize festivals in the past for the lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender and queer community, Kat Cade, a junior geography major from Lubbock, cofounded the Lubbock PRIDE festival in 2012.

Cade said her organization is the only one to become an annual event in the Lubbock community.

“I got involved with it by accident,” Cade said. “I really never thought of myself as an activist. I was just a shy little girl who had just come out and was not planning to get

involved to that extent.”

Cade got her first taste of involvement with the LGBTQ community when she attended South Plains College and joined its Gay Straight Alliance, she said.

She joined organizations that tried to plan a festival for 2012, she said. However, plans fell through, so Cade and a friend decided to keep the festival going.

After three years, Cade said this year’s festival had about 500 attendees.

“Pride is kind of promoted through word of mouth more than anything,” she said. “We have a lot of local organizations and churches who sponsor us every year.”

This year’s gay pride festival was hosted Aug. 23

at the Rawlings Park, which Cade said was the only location available.

Isaac Villalobos, a graduate student studying applied linguistics from Lubbock, said the location of the festival was a concern because of its close proximity to a Baptist church.

“One of the most stressful parts of planning the event was figuring out the location,” he said. “We had no problem when we were on campus in the Frazier Pavilion last year because it’s on campus, but getting out into the community was a little scary.”

The festival did not experience any issues, Villalobos said, but security officers were hired just in case.

Lubbock practices water Alpha Sigma Phi fraternity conservation during drought under tentative suspension

By ALEXIS NELSON Staff Writer

As the drought in West Texas continues, Texas Tech students and faculty are doing their part to conserve water and abide by city of Lubbock water restrictions.

The city of Lubbock has currently enacted stage two of the drought contingency plan, according to the city of Lubbock water management website.

“The different stages are issued based on a certain interval of time, and if water levels do not rise then the next stage is issued,” Ted Cleveland, associate professor of civil engineering, said.

Lake Alan Henry, Lubbock’s main source of water, is currently 56.3 percent full as of Monday, according to the Texas Conservation Storage and Capacity website.

“We’re in a drought because it hasn’t rained like we need it to,” Cleveland said. “A hurricane up the Gulf or a good series of Pacific fronts would get us to where we need to be.”

The recent rain, however, has been enough to keep the grass at Tech alive, Mike Quartaro, director of Grounds Maintenance, said.

“It’s been lucky for us that we’ve had enough rain lately to keep things fairly green,” Quartaro said.

The water restrictions in the stage two rules keep Tech from watering the lawn more than once a week, he said.

Tech does have a well they can pull irrigation water from, Quartaro said, but Grounds Maintenance still tries to stay ADVERTISING: 806-742-3384

QUICK STATS

• No irrigation can occur between 10 a.m. - 6 p.m.

• Washing cars with a significant amount of water is not allowed or must be severely restricted • Lawns can only be watered once a week -Information provided by The city of Lubbock within the city’s set parameters when using water.

With water levels not forecasted to increase significantly anytime soon, Cleveland said it is important for students to also practice water conservation.

“They need to use less water,” he said.

“In order to make any difference, don’t wash cars, don’t water the lawn during the day, don’t take long showers, and if you do laundry, wait until you have a full load.”

Not all students are taking that advice, however.

“Water conservation? I guess it’s important, but I don’t do anything to practice it,” Kimberly Aguilar, a junior exercise and sport sciences major from Arlington, said.

Some students do try to practice conservational habits.

Dalton Debrick, a former Texas Tech freshman multidisciplinary studies major from Irving, was found dead at a house on 36th Street on Aug. 24.

According to the Lubbock Police Department’s police report, the police visited the house earlier in the evening in response to a noise complaint.

Debrick was an Alpha Sigma Phi rushee, and the Tech colony was closed following his death.

The suspension is tentative, Canyon Brock, recruitment director for Alpha Sigma Phi, said.

“Our national office contact has told us that the suspension is tentative because we’re still able to appeal it,” he said.

Chris Cook, managing director of the Office of Communications and Marketing at Tech,

confirmed the national organization closed the colony, according to a previous article in The DT. “We’re a little stunned to be honest,” Brock said. “He really was our brother. A lot of us knew him before he came to Texas Tech, so that was really sad. As a fraternity we were hurt to find out he had passed away.”

Brock said he will be flying to the Alpha Sigma Phi headquarters in Carmel, Indiana, this weekend to speak with officials about an appeal.

“We have had multiple meetings about it,” Brock said. “Many people have been going through counseling, because this affects Alpha Sig just as much as it affects the Lubbock community and Texas Tech.” ➤➤news@dailytoreador.com

Suicide prevention training to begin this month

By DANI COPELAND Staff Writer

The Student Wellness Center’s counseling center will be hosting Question, Persuade and Refer training three times this semester for students and faculty.

Klinton Hobbs, assistant director of the counseling center and a licensed psychologist, said QPR stands for Question, Persuade and Refer.

This type of training relates to students suffering from suicidal thoughts and actions, he said.

The QPR program originated from Washington State University, Hobbs said, and was brought to Tech five years ago.

A trainer for Washington State came to Tech to teach faculty how to do QPR training, and after becoming certified, faculty would teach students, he said.

Becoming QPR certified and

going through gatekeeper training is not mental health training, he said, but it is more similar to CPR training.

“CPR is a way you can intervene with somebody and save their life even though you’re not an expert,” Hobbs said. “QPR is kind of the same way.”

QPR training here at Tech has been shaped to focus on the college atmosphere, Hobbs said. Training goes over the background of QPR debunks the myths of suicide, he said, and teaches students how to do QPR in an actual situation.

There are multiple myths of suicide as well as obvious behavioral actions that come with students suffering from suicidal thoughts, he said.

“Research shows around 90 percent of people who are going to commit suicide communicate their intent to do so,” he said. “There are direct and indirect verbal statements that are clues that people leave, like

‘I want out of here’ or ‘I don’t know if I can go on,’ and things like that.”

QPR training helps guide faculty and students so they know how to react to a person who is suffering from suicidal thoughts or actions, Hobbs said.

The program teaches students how to speak in a correct way, he said, and speak openly about suicide.

“We find that if you’re speaking to somebody who is suicidal, often times they really want to talk about the pain that they are in,” he said, ‘”but they are very sensitive to rejection.”

Once a student is able to sensitively approach a situation and be able to ask a friend straightforward if they are having suicidal thoughts, Hobbs said, it is easier to help them get referred to a clinic.

Many teachers and students have brought people to the counseling center over the years, he said, that they thought could use someone to

speak with.

“Once they have had that conversation about suicide, we teach them how to persuade someone to get the help that they need,” Hobbs said. “We teach them how to refer the student to somebody who can help with the next step.”

Blake Barnett, a junior political science major from Stamford, said he had to help his girlfriend this last year with depression.

Barnett’s girlfriend was contacted, but wanted Barnett to speak about the situation for her, he said.

His girlfriend went to the counseling center in the Student Wellness Center, he said, before she was referred to a clinic.

Watching his girlfriend go through a tough time had him concerned, he said.

“I felt encouraged by how even through everything (my girlfriend) was going through, she was still able to hand most events with a semi-

ABOUT QPR

• During the five years the program has been on campus, 2,000 faculty and students have been certified • Training occurs at noon, Sept. 18 in room 100 of the Student Wellness Center • Students must register with Hobbs before attending smile on her face,” Barnett said. “I would, though, feel mostly discouraged with myself if I couldn’t do or say something to make her happy.”

If he had known about QPR and this program, Barnett said, he would have gotten involved and taken the course.

He pushed his girlfriend to go to the Wellness Center many times, he said.

“She is in a much better place because of this so I would recommend anyone feeling down and out to make sure you monitor yourself,” Barnett said.

During the five years QPR has been on campus, Hobbs said he has trained over 2,000 students and faculty combined.

Training starts at noon Sept. 18 in room 100 of the Student Wellness Center, according to the Wellness Center’s website.

Students must register by contacting Hobbs in order to participate in training.

There is no fee for the training, Hobbs said, and after one session a person is a certified QPR gatekeeper for two years. ➤➤dcopeland@dailytoreador.com

Texas Tech’s Jerry S. Rawls College of New minor teaches students to analyze Business school ranked Top 3 in nation communication patterns through history The Texas Tech Rawls College of Business was ranked Top 3 Best Business Schools of 2015.

College Atlas, an organization that gives information about universities and ranks them in different areas, conducted the survey, according to a Tech news release.

The survey was announced Tuesday, according to the release.

“We are delighted by this recognition from College Atlas, as it reflects the commitment of the Rawls faculty and staff to delivering a high-quality MBA program at an affordable cost to our students,” Lance Nail, Rawls dean, said in the release.

“The recognition also confirms that our college’s decision to restructure the program with grater academic rigor and professionalism is what recruiters truly

want.”

The survey took into account each school’s affordability, academic quality, acc e s s i b i l i t y, NAIL GMAT average and job placement rate, according to the release, and the results highlighted schools with the best economic and academic values.

University of Cincinnati and Brigham Young took the number one and two spots respectively on the survey, according to the survey results.

Other schools that made the top twenty include the University of Oklahoma and Iowa State, according to the survey.

“The MBA program at Texas

Te c h h a s changed significantly in the past two years, and the effects of those changes PASEWARK are starting to show in various polls,” William Pasewark, associate dean of graduate programs and research at Rawls College, said. “This ranking includes Texas Tech with an outstanding group of universities.”

The College of Arts and Sciences has introduced a new interdisciplinary minor, Book History and Digital Humanities minor.

Ann Hawkins, professor of bibliography and 19th century literature and co-director of the minor, said within the course students will analyze technologies of communication throughout history.

The course will be co-taught with Craig Baehr, associate professor of English, and both sections will examine texts in their literary form and their nonliterary forms, she said.

“We are going to start by making students think of the components of communication that surround them as technology,” she said.

According to the course catalog description, the minor will survey technologies of text production, publication and consumption from manuscript, through the printing press to the Internet and across cultures.

The inspiration behind the minor emerged from applying digital humanity skills to previous undergraduate classes, she said.

“One of the things that I discovered is how enjoyable it was to incorporate these skills into undergraduate classes,” she said. “We decided that since students seemed to enjoy the skills within these undergraduate classes, we thought the next step would be to create an interdisciplinary undergraduate minor.”

There are only three other institutions in the nation that provide a minor similar to this one, she said.

Texas Tech is at the forefront of the book history and digital humanities disciplines, she said.

“We are going to take things we see in everyday life for communication purposes, and make us see them in a new light,” she said. “With modern technology, we are used to communication being almost instantaneous. In this minor, we will analyze the constraints on communication throughout history.”

Student will learn to analyze and discuss the historical and social impact of the technologies involved in text production, according to the course syllabus.

Townsen Andrews, a freshman studio art major from Frisco, said the course would provide students with the practice of communicating ethically in a modern digital environment.

“I believe it is important to learn of the emergence of new forms of communication within the media, along with the historical background of communication,” he said. “I think students who choose to take this course will develop a better understanding of how people used mediums of communication, both then and in modern times.”

The course is designed for the general audience and is a gateway required course for the interdisciplinary minor, Hawkins said.

“I believe students who are interested in sciences and engineering will find this class as interesting as students who are interested in the humanities,” she said.

This minor is an upper divisional elective for students who want to think critically about texts and technology, she said.

For several years, similar humanities courses have been offered, geared toward English majors and minors, she said.

“I started thinking about how we can take this idea from past courses and reshape it as a general education idea,

not only limited to English majors and minors,” she said. “We envision it as serving a general audience, not limited to specific majors or minors.”

The process of constructing the idea for the course and getting it through the levels of approval took an estimated three years, she said.

The vision for the course is to have a broad appeal to students across campus within different colleges of study, she said.

“I think there is something about having a hands-on component that is really appealing,” she said. “This minor is a wonderful way to look back on history and look at technology with a different sort of appreciation.”

For the service-learning component of the minor, students have to retrieve a document and learn how to properly preserve it.

The documents will be contributed to the Texas Manuscript Cultures archive, and the students will have the recognition of preserving the patch of documents, she said.

The Texas Manuscript Cultures archive is dedicated to preserving and promoting the culturally diverse handwritten social history of the peoples of Texas through digital access, she said.

Last year, the Texas Manuscript Cultures won 2nd runner-up in the 2014 International Digital Humanities award in the category of Best Digital Humanities Project for Public Audiences, she said.

“What they will be able to take away from this experience is the critical perspective on the technologies that surround them,” she said, “and create a new appreciation for these technologies.”

The minor will be available Spring 2015. ➤➤bcooney@dailytoreador.com

believes it is especially important to practice water conservation in Lubbock because the climate is already so dry.

Not only is this an issue now, he said, but also the water supply has been depleting for several years.

CVS stops selling tobacco, promotes health

By LIANA SOLIS Staff Writer

Cigarette and tobacco brands will no longer be filling the aisles of CVS pharmacies across the nation.

CVS announced that as of Sept.

3, its pharmacies would no longer carry tobacco products in any stores in the U.S. in order to help promote a healthier lifestyle. The company also changed its name to CVS Health, according to the company’s website.

Running a gay pride event in Lubbock is easier than most people would think, Cade said, because the organization was transparent with its plans.

“Lubbock is a conservative town,” she said. “If we were to just shove our festival in the community’s face, I don’t think we’d get the reaction we’ve been getting. We’ve gone about it in a very family-oriented manner.”

Summer Hawkins, a graduate student studying counseling psychology from Wimberley, is a member of the Texas Tech Gay Straight Alliance and has attended the festival for the past three years.

Lubbock, she said, is more accepting of the LGBTQ community than other towns.

“I think it’s really awesome that it’s possible to have a festival in Lubbock,” she said. “I used to live in College Station when I went to A&M, and they wouldn’t have something like that there. Even though it’s a conservative community, there are still accepting people and venues.”

A group of officers organized the festival, Cade said, and will begin planning in October for the 2015 event.

The officers had monthly meetings, which became more frequent as the event date approached, Villalobos said.

“I look for speakers who have something influential to say,” Cade said. “I try to get at least one speaker for every major group of the commu-

At the ceremony, Tech President M. Duane Nellis will address the crowd, as well as other officials from the university that will share a few words.

Cher to stop in Lubbock

Cher will perform in Lubbock at 7:30 p.m. Nov. 9 in the United Supermarkets Arena as a part of her D2K Tour, according to a USA news release.

The singer will promote her 2013 album “Closer to the Truth,” according to Cher’s website.

ment,” Merlo said in the release.

Dr. Thomas Tenner, a Health Sciences Center professor in the Department of Pharmacology and Medical Education, said he thinks this is a good step for CVS. “A drug store selling cigarettes is the same thing as a hospital selling cigarettes,” Tenner said. “It doesn’t make sense if those working to help improve the health of others are selling cigarettes – that’s counter intuitive.”

A study conducted by CVS Health in Boston and San Francisco showed a 13.3 percent reduction in purchases of tobacco after the CVS pharmacies stopped selling products, according to a news release.

Tenner said it makes sense that CVS would stop selling tobacco because it interferes with their mission statement.

“Tobacco is lethal,” he said.

“It increases disease not only for

the person smoking, but everyone around them.”

Tenner said secondhand smoke can be just as dangerous as a person smoking himself or herself.

Although those smoking have a great risk, he said, those who are inhaling smoke 24/7 are also at risk.

“20 years ago, people were exposed to the chemical in cigarettes and being affected by it even though they didn’t smoke themselves,” Tenner said. “Today, tobacco is recognized

nity. For a lot of people who come to our festival, this is their first gay pride event because there’s nothing else around here to go to except for Dallas Pride, but you have to leave Lubbock for that. I want it to encourage them and for them to know that this event is for them.”

When searching for speakers, Cade said she reaches out to locals because they better understand how the community functions.

Having a Lubbock resident tell someone that things will get better makes it more personal, she said.

“We’re spreading the message that it’s OK to be yourself and that there’s a community here to support you, and that’s really important to me,” Cade said. “We’re spreading the message to those who really need it. We want them to know that there’s someone here for them.”

As the community becomes more accepting, Cade said she would like for the festival to expand as well.

It would be great for the festival to become a parade in the future if the funds are available, she said.

“Right now, it’s a festival,” Cade said. “It’s a celebration, it’s a day of equality and community. Lubbock is a little big city. It’s a lot more personal than other cities’ events.”

In its current format, the festival features vendors, speakers and a drag show to conclude the night, she said.

An activist award is also given to someone who has influenced or impacted his or her community.

The park location limited the

amount of events they could host this year, Cade said, but Lubbock PRIDE hopes to return to Tech campus in 2015.

“The drag show was really impressive this year,” Hawkins said. “There was just way more than there normally is. They had a good turnout and a lot of variety, very mixed.”

Cade said she hopes the festival will continue to grow through the years. At its current size, Cade said attendees told her that they were actually able to talk to people and get to know one another, unlike some events in larger cities.

For anyone who wants to plan a similar festival, Villalobos said it is a difficult process but worth it in the end.

“Don’t be afraid of what people are going to say,” Cade said. “Don’t let what other people say about your identity and who you are deter you from your dreams.”

With plans beginning soon for next year’s event, Cade said she wants more people to come and see that it is an all-inclusive event, regardless of sexual orientation.

The organization has resources available to help people feel comfortable with who they are, Cade said.

“I was really shy and very nervous about being out,” she said. “Now, I’m running Pride festival. You really can do anything, doesn’t matter if you’re gay, straight, black, white or whatever.

That has nothing to do with your drive and the impact you can have on other people.” ➤➤features@dailytoreador.com

as a huge health hazard.”

CVS is not the first to ban tobacco in some way as a means of helping patrons stay health-conscious.

Te x a s Te c h banned the use of tobacco products in all buildings in August 2012 to meet requirements of the Cancer Prevention and Research Institute of Texas, according to the Texas Tech Today website.

The university decided on this to help benefit as many students, faculty and staff as it could, Tenner said.

“We did not completely ban tobacco from being used on campus,” he said. “We are making sure not as many people are exposed.”

Brittany Johnson, a junior microbiology major from Greene, said she is glad Tech is mainly a tobacco-free campus.

She said she never thought of the fact that a company whose mission is to help make the public healthier has in turn been making them unhealthy in the past.

“The fact that they are doing something to help those people who don’t want to be exposed to smoke is great,” she said. “A pharmacy promoting non-smoking is even better.”

CVS is now the first nationwide pharmacy chain to stop selling tobacco products, according to a news release.

CVS Health representatives hope this change will help promote

living a tobacco-free lifestyle, Merlo said in the release.

“By eliminating cigarettes and tobacco products from sale in our stores,” Merlo said, “we can make a difference in the health of all Americans.”

The only thing Johnson worries about for CVS is their revenue dropping dramatically with the cease of selling tobacco products, she said.

However, Tenner said although they may lose revenue, CVS may be using this as a marketing ploy for their pharmacies.

“Seventeen percent of the public are smokers, so it is not considered a normal thing anymore,” he said.

“The health organization also estimated roughly 444,000 die every year because of tobacco. Luckily, we are moving toward a more tobaccofree country.” ➤➤lsolis@dailytoreador.com

Students carry 2x4 for class project

This week, architecture students have walked around campus carrying two-by-four sections of wood.

Ian DuPont, a sophomore architecture major from Lubbock, said the students are enrolled in Construction 1.

“Throughout the year we’re learning about different materials, and our first one is wood,” he said. “She instructed us to each get a non-treated four-foot section of two-by-four. We have to carry it around for a week. We got it last Thursday, so the earliest we can turn it in is at the end of class this Thursday.”

Fortunately, there is an obvious solution to this problem.

C u r r e n t l y, Tech requires nearly all students with fewer than 30 credit hours to live on campus. While there are many benefits for students in living on campus the first year, it’s time to sacrifice this policy, at least until sufficient residence hall space is constructed.

First-year students (and their parents) should never be put in a position to either accept an overpriced, overcrowded tripleoccupancy dorm room or be removed from the university, which is essentially what happened this fall. The university must ensure this disgrace does not repeat itself in fall 2015.

The policy can be changed in a number of ways. It could be

“

Instead of using the planned enrollment increases as an excuse for ineptitude, Tech should have designed, funded and built more freshman residence halls.

university to artificially inflate the cost of living, and then require students to live on campus.

If this isn’t the concern, then why not change the policy? If Tech is confident that living on campus is the best possible option for an incoming freshman, then it should be open to allowing the students and their parents to make this decision for themselves on the open market.

It is also important to note the problems we are seeing today could have been avoided with more careful preparation.

Instead of using the planned enrollment increases as an excuse for ineptitude, Tech should have designed, funded and built more freshman residence halls.

Then a policy change would not be needed because there would be adequate housing for all freshmen.

Upon recognition of its failure, Tech must now take action to ensure this does not happen again. If the goal is still to eventually reach 40,000 students, clearly, more residence halls and dining halls must be built. In the meantime, while they are being constructed, a policy change is necessary beginning in 2015 to alleviate on-campus housing demand.

The sooner this change is made, the sooner prospective Tech students and parents for 2015 and beyond will feel confident in making an enrollment decision, and in the end, isn’t that what it’s all about?

Students should embrace uncertainty of college life

W

hen I was in the fourth grade, I wanted to be a spy. Then I wanted to be a singer, and then a teacher. The list goes on.

In the fifth grade, I had an epiphany that I wanted to be a writer. I was good at it and I enjoyed it, so I stuck with writing.

Around high school, this dream started to de-rail. I realized there were millions of other people who wanted the exact same thing I did, and most of them were probably better at it than me.

Now I’m in college. Suddenly, I’ve been transported back to the fourth grade.

Once again, I’m the little girl who changed perspective careers like she did clothes. I have no idea what to do with my life.

It’s become even more apparent that I’m not as unique as I once thought. But that’s OK. At some point, we all feel lost.

When you’re in high school, you plan ahead. Teachers and counselors pester you with a plethora of mundane tasks, but at least you have a clear goal — first high school, then college and lastly, a career.

For some reason, things change when you begin to actually live

“

Jemima Johnson out what you’ve planned for years.

While you’re scrambling for direction, it seems as if everyone else has it all figured out.

In reality, most people are in the same boat. We’re all just desperately looking for our place in the world.

I have noticed college students usually approach this newfound uncertainty in two ways — pretend it doesn’t exist or let it take them over. Neither of these are good options.

Pretending uncertainty doesn’t exist is a temporary comfort. However, it only postpones dealing with the issue. Contrary to popular belief, admitting to doubt about the future is not a sign of weakness. It’s a sign of being human.

George Orwell said it best when he said, “The essence of being human is that one does not seek perfection.”

On the other hand, letting worry overtake all aspects of your life isn’t even a temporary comfort. Dwelling

on the future will only leave the present stagnant. Plus, it’s almost guaranteed to lead to a panic attack.

It may be hard, but embracing uncertainty is the best option. We should all take some time to look at what has already been accomplished.

The wild beast of high school has been conquered. We’ve made it to college. It’s time to be happy.

Throw someone a smile every now and again.

It’s perfectly fine to have absolutely no idea which path you want to take in life. College is the time

EDITORIAL BOARD

no reason for anyone to report rape later.

Many schools find this policy to be helpful and many colleges outside California are beginning to adopt this policy or others similar to it. According to the article by The Huffington Post, 800 colleges have some sort of affirmative consent in place.

This policy will help students understand what is acceptable and what is unacceptable, which would put a stop to perpetrators claiming they were unaware of what they were doing. Many victims of sexual assault report they repeatedly said no to their perpetrator, but the attacker refused to stop. The policy will automatically help victims in prosecuting their attacker.

Students haven’t always agreed on their campuses’ objectives toward preventing sexual abuse. According to Today.com, Emma Sulkowicz, a Columbia student, was sexually assaulted in her dorm room. She repeatedly said no, she said, and then reported it to the administration, and still her case was dismissed.

She has chosen to carry her mattress around with her as long as her perpetrator is still allowed to attend the same school.

If the affirmative consent policy were implemented at Columbia, maybe Sulkowicz’s offender wouldn’t be allowed to attend the same university as her. The impact this one policy could have made if it had been adopted previously by Columbia could have made this experience less painful for Sulkowicz.

So should this be a policy Tech should look into adopting?

I feel it would better protect students from being victims or even becoming offenders of sexual assault on campus. It could possibly enlighten incoming freshmen about the dangers of ambiguous sex signals and motivate all students to be aware of the importance of saying yes or no.

removed altogether (allowing all freshmen to live off campus), modified to increase the number of residency exceptions (so freshmen could live with siblings or friends off campus), or it could allow only freshmen in overcrowded situations to live off campus (or trade places with someone who wants to).

It won’t be easy to arrive at a final answer, but any of these solutions would be better than the current situation, and of course, eventually more dorms can be constructed and the original requirement can be reinstated if necessary.

As an added benefit, in the short-term the local economy would likely see a boost from more offcampus housing demand.

Construction of student housing has noticeably revitalized many areas of Lubbock.

Why haven’t these changes been made already? Is Tech afraid that competition on rent and food prices from local businesses will cause the dorms not to fill and dining plan purchases to drop? If so, it is clear that oncampus housing and meal prices must come down. It is unethical (and potentially illegal) for the

exual assault is a topic no one should take lightly, whether it is discussing a specific attack on campus or ways to prevent yourself from becoming a victim.

The safety of students is a main priority to all college campuses, but Texas Tech has had reports of sexual assault in the past. So to help our campus become a safer environment and to prevent any further cases, a safer policy should be adopted.

According to an article by The Huffington Post, affirmative consent requires both parties agreeing or consenting in sexual interactions by verbally speaking “yes.”

Affirmative consent is a policy some California campuses adopted to help prevent sexual assault from happening and to help the case of anyone who was sexually assaulted. By enacting this policy, students are able to make a clear conscious decision before engaging in any sexual act, without leaving any room for ambiguous consent.

According to a CNN article, it is mandatory that all University of California-Berkeley freshmen attend a 90-minute seminar that educates them on sexual harassment and defines consent to help students become aware of the importance behind saying yes or no.

This policy will help students understand the specifics of consent and will help motivate them to take every sexual encounter seriously and avoid becoming a victim of sexual assault.

Tech should also require mandatory seminars that educate students on sexual assault.

Not everyone agrees this policy will help prevent further sexual assault, but instead they believe it puts a lot of students at risk of becoming an offender.

David Bernstein, a law professor, was interviewed by The Washington Post and he said the simple act of a woman unbuttoning a man’s shirt without specifically asking could be enough cause to find her liable for sexual assault.

The policy is not trying to get couples in trouble, but instead is trying to ensure all parties involved are OK with going further in their relationship. Many students may worry about being penalized for not verbally giving consent, but if both persons are passionate about engaging in sexual relations, there will be

ver the last few years, there has been a push to increase Texas Tech’s enrollment. In fact, it is a published goal to reach 40,000 students by the year 2020. In order to achieve this goal, student enrollment has sharply increased in recent years. Predictably, this has put a strain on parts of Tech’s infrastructure.

Unfortunately, despite the fact that we have known about planned enrollment increases for years, some aspects of Tech’s campus have been woefully unprepared. According to a previous article in The Daily Toreador, rooms in Horn/ Knapp, Sneed and Bledsoe residence halls were “converted” to triple-occupancy, meaning three students are living in a room instead of the two it was designed to accommodate.

In defending this action, University Student Housing’s managing director said the growth of Tech’s student body is “more than anyone could have expected,” and students living in the triple-occupancy rooms were given a $1,000 discount on housing costs.

This statement was and is nothing more than a hollow excuse. Tech has a stated goal to increase enrollment to 40,000 students within the next 5-6 years. Of course, to reach this goal there will be enrollment increases each year. How can housing be trusted to accommodate 40,000 students when it can’t even handle 34,000?

We need to find a solution to this problem, quickly, before the next wave of incoming freshmen hits campus. If a solution is not

Running backs hope to keep momentum

By JEREMY KRAKOSKY

ence, I can teach all of the young guys just things that I have learned from experience,” he said. “I just try to share my knowledge. I have accepted the role and it feels good.”

After two games, Stockton is leading the team in rushing yards with 177 and rushing touchdowns with two.

White said everyone knew Stockton had speed, but they have been impressed at how the freshman has handled the pressure.

“My freshman year here, I would have been nervous. But (Stockton) has stepped in and filled his role,” White said. “He’s fast, obviously, some of those outside runs, he has taken them to the house. He has come a long ways since he got here.”

Against UTEP, Stockton broke loose for a 75-yard touchdown run on the first play of the second quarter. The run was the longest for a Red Raider since the Alamo Bowl in2012, according to the Tech Athletics website.

He ended the game with 135 yards on only 8 carries, and became the first Tech freshman to run for 100 yards since Taurean Henderson in the 2002 season.

Washington said he has fun watching Stockton improve because it pushes himself to keep working hard every day in practice.

“He is an extremely explosive player. It’s impressive,” Washington said. “He has got that speed, something that you cannot really coach. He is going to be a special player here at Texas Tech. As long as he remains humble and just keeps working, then things will fall into place for him.”

White tops off the Red Raider’s three-back rotation, which has made the run even more difficult to stop for opposing defenses.

Measuring 5’7’’, what White is lacking in height he makes up for with his 200 pounds of muscle and a strong work ethic.

White believes having Stockton’s speed and his power is a positive for the offense, he said, when used in the right situations.

“It’s good to have power and speed,

Staff Writer

In Texas Tech’s opening game against Central Arkansas, junior running back DeAndre Washington snapped a program streak of 24 games without having a 100-yard rusher.

Last weekend, freshman running back Justin Stockton extended a new streak to two games with a 100-yard rusher.

Washington said the offense is aware of the streak and are hoping to keep extending it.

“We are all pushing for it. The running game has definitely done some big things in the first two games,” he said.

“We have been in Coach Kliff Kingsbury’s ear this whole week, just trying to keep things going. We started off on a positive note, but it’s a long season.

The plan is to keep things going.”

In the 2011 season, Washington earned All-Big 12 Offensive Freshman of the Year honorable mention before redshirting in 2012 due to an injury.

Last season, Washington backed up senior linebacker Kenny Williams and ran the ball 107 times for 450 yards and four touchdowns. Now in his junior season, Washington has earned the starting position and is leading a group of young running backs.

As the starter and being injury free, Washington said he feels like he’s in better shape and is more confident than he has ever been.

“I think I’m just a lot more comfortable and a lot more experienced. I’m way more physical than I’ve been in the past,” Washington said. “Overall, experience just helps.”

In the first two games this season, while splitting carries with Stockton and sophomore running back Quinton White Jr., Washington has ran the ball 32 times for 163 yards and a touchdown.

Washington said being a vocal leader for other backs was not something he would have been comfortable with in the past but is enjoying this season.

“I feel like being the oldest of the position and having the most experi-

and DeAndre has both,” White said.

“It’s definitely tough for defenses to capitalize when we have all that.”

While White was quick to declare Stockton as the fastest running back on the team, Washington jokingly said he is not ready to say Stockton is faster

than himself.

“I think in a 40-yard race, I could get (Stockton),” Washington said. “I think for 100 yards he’ll get it, but for a quick burst I would give him a run for his money.” ➤➤jkrakosky@dailytoreador.com
