Alumni look back on their college years at UI Savannah Williams Argonaut
Kenneth and Lois Siebe met in 1940 while still attending high school in Challis, Idaho. But when Kenneth turned 18, he was shipped out for war during World War II. “We both put our education on hold,” said Lois, who worked for the U.S. Forest Service while Kenneth was overseas. Kenneth returned home in 1946. The following summer, he and Lois were married and began their education together at the University of Idaho. The couple has been married 69 years and counting. Even though some time has passed, the couple made many fond memories while at UI. There was the time UI football players stole Butch the cougar from Washington State University before the big football game. The time they sat under the moonlight in
the Arboretum and were startled by campus security. The couple even has fond memories of their loyal 1939 Hudson Coupe that went with them everywhere they did. Kenneth was able to attend college on the GI Bill, and said the university his brother attended before the war was much different. He said UI was a smaller school and it cost only his brother $650 to attend. “The University of Idaho at the time my brother went was a very small nice little university about four to five hundred students,” Kenneth said. “After the war, of course, all of us Kenneth were eligible for the GI Bill. So this little university went from about 500 students to about 4,000 in one year.” Kenneth said the sudden growth of population had a significant impact on the university and UI had to adapt as a result. “They moved temporary barracks buildings in and everything for class-
halloween
rooms,” Kenneth said. “Housing was nonexistent so they moved in hundreds of these 17-foot trailers.” The couple moved into one of those trailers after they got married and were attending school. Kenneth and Lois said they have many memories while living in the trailer, such as the Moscow winter of 1948 — one of the harshest winters of the time — and how the daily cost of food was just $1.37. They earned their money from working year round and focused on their studies while slowly spending their earnings. Lois Lois was an art major, and she remembered all her fun times in the art department, while Kenneth majored in business administration and accounting. Kenneth said he was fortunate to attend UI in the first place. SEE couple, PAGE 5
The Vandal Football team has indefinitely suspended wide receiver Dezmon Epps for allegedly slapping his girlfriend over the weekend, according to a statement from the University of Idaho Athletic Department. “I have zero tolerance for any inappropriate behavior toward women,” said Vandal football coach Paul Petrino in the statement. “This is a serious allegation and I take it as such. The penalties are immediEpps ate and substantive.” Epps status on the team may be reconsidered after the conclusion of an ongoing investigation into the allegations. The investigation will be run through the Dean of Students office. Earlier this school year, Epps was identified as being involved in an alleged Aug. 16 shoplifting incident at the VandalStore. The VandalStore decided not to press charges on Epps. After the incident, the football team took immediate disciplinary action in addition to “strict daily behavioral requirements,” for Epps, according to an earlier statement from Petrino. The allegation is another off-the-field incident for Epps. In April 2014, Epps was arrested in Pullman on suspicion of driving under the influence. Months later, Epps was charged for petty theft after allegedly shoplifting items from WinCo in Moscow and was subsequently dismissed from the football team. Earlier this year, Epps was charged with two misdemeanors for driving without privileges and for driving without a required ignition interlock device. Epps caught nine passes for 98 yards in Idaho’s 27-13 homecoming win against Louisiana-Monroe Saturday. Epps leads the Sun Belt Conference in receptions per game with 10.2 and leads the conference in receiving yards per game with 126.2. Epps also returns punts and has played some defensive back in recent games. Epps joined the UI football team in 2013 as a community college transfer and was the team’s leading receiver that season.

Scares with Staben Costumes of offense Stabens host 2nd annual Halloween party Tuesday Katie Colson Argonaut
University of Idaho President Chuck Staben and his wife Mary Beth Staben are throwing a party — costumes are encouraged. The Stabens will host the 2nd annual President’s Halloween Open House from 6-8 p.m. Tuesday at the President’s Residence near the UI Golf Course. The event is open to students, community members, faculty and staff. When the Stabens first came to UI, Mary Beth said they were surprised to hear there was no Halloween event put on by the school. “What do we do for Halloween? How can we not do something for Halloween?” Mary Beth said of her reaction to finding out there was no Halloween event. Mary Beth said Halloween has always been a big tradition in their family.
When their kids were little, Mary Beth said she would dress them up every year in costumes she had made. Mary Beth said they raised their kids in Lexington, Kentucky, and she said it was a great place for Halloween. She said they lived in a neighborhood full of families, the weather was always nice and Halloween was always a big deal. Chuck said it would sometimes look a bit like the end scene of “ET,” there were so many kids out and about. Chuck said they also lived in San Francisco for 10 years and Halloween was always a big deal. Last year, Kevin Ketchie, assistant to the President and Presidential Events, agreed to organize a UI event. They decided to hold the event at the President’s Residence, and make it an open house where people can mingle — in costume — and talk over refreshments, Chuck said. SEE scares, PAGE 5
Some costumes are worn at the expense of others Jessica Gee Argonaut
The lines can be a bit blurred when it comes to which Halloween costumes are considered appropriate. Yet, every year, what some people wear has larger implications than anticipated. Leathia Botello, coordinator at the Office of Multicultural Affairs, said cultural appropriation when it comes to Halloween costumesis a gray area that students may not know that much about. “It’s basically one culture taking parts from another culture that they are not a part of,” Botello said of cultural appropriation. She said it is important for the University of Idaho to make campus is a safe and inclusive environment for all cultures.
Botello has worked at UI for 16 years and said there haven’t been many incidents with offensive costumes, but it is definitely more prevalent during Halloween. She said she recalls some UI students wearing blackface a couple of years ago. These students were likely not trying to be malicious toward anyone, but the costumes were still offensive, Botello said. “The history of blackface during slave times was a way for white people to keep African Americans oppressed,” Botello said. Yet, she said that the incident was a good learning experience for those students. Botello said Native American and Latino costumes are some of the common themes she has seen of the years. She said most of the time students think a costume looks cool and are not intentionally trying to upset anyone. SEE costumes, PAGE 5

A night of noise Homecoming
Hannah Shirley Argonaut
Washed in the light of the stage at the Homecoming Bonfire Friday evening, Mary Beth Staben shouted over hundreds of screaming Vandals. “I just love the noise,” she said, standing beside her husband, University of Idaho President Chuck Staben. And noise there was. It began atop the hill overlooking the UI Golf Course, where the Vandal Marching Band was waiting and ready to lead the Serpentine march to the annual Homecoming Bonfire. The parade to the Kibbie Dome started at 8 p.m. sharp — but the marching band had started long before that. Marching band members donned glow sticks, capes, ship captain hats, wigs and Vandal horns. “It’s kind of a party — it’s tons of fun,” said Jake Snarr, a drummer in the marching band. For many students, it was their first time witnessing the annual spectacle. As freshman Gaby Broden walked behind the Serpentine, she said she was surprised by how wild the event was. “I thought there would just be a few people here,” she said. There were a few more than that. As Serpentine wound down New Greek Row and onto Old Greek Row, students poured out of houses to join the fray. Besides the students, dozens of families and alumni lined the street for the festivities. Many walked alongside the band, and several jumped right in and marched with them. A few drummers peeled away from the march to run through a crowd
gathered in front of Gamma Phi Beta sorority, popping loud staccato notes on their drums. As the procession made its way to the Kibbie Dome, the crowd only multiplied as more students from Greek houses and residence halls joined the crowd. The marching band arrived in the Kibbie Dome parking lot, blasting a final round of the Fight Song for the now-hundreds of spectators. With the final, thunderous cheer, a second rally began. Not of the marching band, but of Vandal coaches and athletes who made their way across the stage to take the microphone one by one to shout cheers through booming speakers. It wasn’t like the crowd needed the encouragement. The shoulder-to-shoulder spectators hushed themselves for the announcement of Homecoming King and Queen. Nominees were called to the stage one by one. A pair of red sashes gleamed in the harsh white light. Finally, the announcement came. UI 2015 Homecoming King and Queen: Nate Fisher and Anna Pratt. The crowd roared with excitement. The winners’ friends swarmed the side of the stage, Snapchat open on their phones, ready to capture a moment of electricity with the reigning Homecoming Royalty. “It’s such an honor,” Pratt said from beneath a pile of hugs from her friends. “Overjoyed,” Fisher said of his reaction. “Over the moon. On top of the world. Any of those three.” Nate Fisher Sr., the newly crowned Homecoming King’s dad, was less articulate, screaming as he twirled circles in the air with the glow sticks around his wrists.

We’ve been openly welcomed.”
Unlike Ferguson, the homecoming spirit isn’t foreign to alumni Dennis Bines. For Bines, who graduated from UI in 1971, the festivities just bring back memories. “We try to come every year,” Bines said. “The kids enjoy it. The grandkids enjoy it.” He said much has changed since he was a student — but there’s just as much that hasn’t. “Everyone is still just proud to be a Vandal,” he said. “That hasn’t changed.” Hannah Shirley can be reached at arg-news@uidaho.edu or on Twitter @itshannah7

Constructing an all-inclusive brewery Rants and Raves Brewery plans to open in December Taylor Nadauld Argonaut
A nasty Craigslist ad is behind the name of Rants and Raves Brewery, a new brewery under construction in Moscow. Founder Neil Attebury said Rants and Raves Brewery got its name after he received an anonymous negative Craigslist review toward himself. Attebury thought it was funny, and decided to name his brewery after it, he said. Rants and Raves, located on North Jackson Street near the Moscow Recycling Center, is expected to open by mid-December. Attebury had built a barn
for a small goat farm he owned when a friend — who will be the master brewer at Rants and Raves — taught Attebury how to brew his own beer. Attebury said he enjoyed it so much, he transformed the barn into a brewery. Since then, the hobby has become a business for Attebury and his family. Attebury said Moscow has a lot of bars, but nothing where people of all types are welcomed. Attebury said the brewery will have areas everyone can enjoy, including a sports section in the front and a children’s section for kids to play video games and color. “We want to create that type of atmosphere where everybody is welcome,” Attebury said. “You could be in a suit, you could be in a pair of

‘We’re on a roll’ Garrett Cabeza Argonaut
When a running back is imposing his will on the defense, it’s probably smart to keep feeding him the football. Idaho kept calling Elijhaa Penny’s number, and as a result, the senior running back from Lakewood, California, racked up 184 rushing yards on 36 carries in Idaho’s 27-13 win over Louisiana-Monroe Saturday at the Kibbie Dome. It was the Vandals’ fourth consecutive homecoming game win and the first time they’ve won back-to-back games since 2009. “I think the ceiling’s about as high as it’s been since I got here,” Idaho sophomore quarterback Matt Linehan said. “We know what we’re capable of. We know we can go out and compete with just

We’re .500 in conference. We go win next weekend, we’re .500 period. So you just keep putting them together.” Penny’s 36 carries is tied for fifth most all-time in Idaho history and his 184 rushing yards are 16th on the Idaho single game rushing list. “I’m not tired at all,” Penny said. “I feel like I can play another game … All the eating right and working out and extra work I put in — I guess it paid off for me.” Petrino said Penny brought his “A” game and because of the high amount of carries and rushing

Champions of Big Sky Josh Grissom Argonaut
As the clock ticked in the final minutes of Sunday’s soccer match between Northern Colorado and Idaho, the Vandals nervously held their breath in anticipation, glancing up at the scoreboard. As the sound of the concluding whistle rang across the field, the team jumped up and down in celebration and mobbed one another in excitement. Idaho (13-4-1 overall, 9-0 Big Sky Conference) clinched the Big Sky regular-season championship. “Our team has always been focused on our performance, and today’s celebration is just a sum of a lot of effort by all of our players and staff,” said Idaho coach Derek Pittman. “We are incredibly excited to have won the Big Sky regular-season championship.” The Vandals began weekend play on Friday against North Dakota (4-11-2, 2-6-1), hoping to gain three vital points in the conference standings before Sunday’s game against Northern Colorado, who is now tied with Eastern Washington for second place in the conference. “We knew that we would have a tough road trip beginning in Grand Forks, and that it was important to remain focused on North Dakota
before we even thought about Sunday’s game,” Pittman said. The Vandals opened up their offensive attack with a goal in the 12th minute by junior midfielder Alyssa Lloyd, who finished a corner kick from junior midfielder Clara Gomez to put the Vandals on the scoreboard. The flurry of goals for the Vandals didn’t come until the second half when the team took advantage of three separate scoring opportunities to derail North Dakota’s chance at a postseason berth. Junior forward Kavita Battan scored in the 54th minute to extend Idaho’s lead to 2-0, and just 12 minutes later, sophomore forward Olivia Baggerly connected off a corner to score Idaho’s third goal of the game. The final goal for the Vandals came in the 79th minute when redshirt freshman forward Kaitlyn Joy took the ball the length of the field and found the back of the net to seal the win for Idaho. “We challenged the players to be more aggressive physically in the second half and more hungry in front of the goal,” Pittman said. “I feel we did a much better job matching North Dakota’s intensity, and our execution on set plays were key to our second-half performance.” SEE champions, PAGE 8

Idaho State snaps Vandal volleyball five-game winning streak in 3-0 sweep
Luis Torres Argonaut
Despite the Idaho volleyball team’s momentum thanks to its recent five-game winning streak, the Vandals were swept by the Idaho State Bengals (16-25, 24-26, 18-25) Saturday at Reed Gym in Pocatello. It is Idaho’s first loss since Oct. 3 at Eastern Washington. The Vandals are now 6-4 in the Big Sky Conference and 9-13 overall. The Bengals have won 11 out of their last 12 games and are 9-1 in conference, which is tied with Northern Arizona in the South division of the Big Sky. Idaho is still second in the North division, only trailing Eastern Washington. The Vandals’ hitting percentage Saturday was .100 and no players earned 10 or more kills. Senior outside hitter Katelyn Peterson led Idaho with eight kills. She surpassed the 900-kill mark in Saturday’s loss. Senior defensive specialist and Pocatello native Jenna Ellis was among three Idaho players who earned 10 or more digs. She led the team with 11. Idaho coach Debbie Buchanan said the team struggled throughout the night staying consistent and stopping the Bengals, who ended the night with a .321 hitting percentage. “We did not really come out and play our game tonight,” Buchanan said. “We learned from game one and came out and competed in game two. At the end of the night we just had too many errors overall. We will hopefully face them again at some point and play a better match.” Idaho’s next four matches will be the final home games of the season.

Vandals claim consolation title Barta, Fonseca win consolation final in doubles play Josh Grissom Argonaut
After a month-long hiatus from tournament play, the Vandal men’s tennis team entered the ITA Mountain Regional in New Mexico with the hope of a strong showing against elite programs throughout the region. Following a long weekend of play in Albuquerque, the Vandals delivered on that goal. The team emerged from the ITA Mountain

Senior Odon Barta and sophomore Felipe Fonseca provided an immediate spark for the Vandals in the tournament, combining to win the consolation final in doubles play.

Vandals facing tough teams, sit in 17th with one round to go at Las Vegas Collegiate Showdown Mihaela Karst Argonaut
The first two rounds of the Las Vegas Collegiate Showdown in Boulder City, Nevada, came down to putting. Idaho women’s golf coach Lisa Johnson said the course was very similar during both rounds and the deciding factor was whether or not a putt went in the hole. “We made more putts from round one to round two,” Johnson said. “However, we’re still not playing nearly as well as we need to. It’s a matter of making putts early and building our confidence.” After the first two rounds, Idaho sits in 17th place with a 1-under-par 575. But Johnson isn’t too concerned with their position. “If a team gets hot with their putter on this course, they could have a great round,” Johnson said. “This golf course is very (scoreable) and it is a very strong field. Our scores that we’re shooting don’t reflect how well the team is playing.” Idaho freshmen Michelle Kim and Sophie Hausmann led the Vandals, both finishing tied for 44th with a 1-under-par 143. Idaho set its goals high going into the final round Tuesday. “The greens are slower than other courses we’ve seen this season and the girls are leaving the putts short,” Johnson said. “We need to enter the round with an aggressive mindset.” Idaho is looking to break a school record in Boulder City, Nevada, this week.

“We would like to shoot the school record, 11-under-par for 18 holes,” Johnson said. As the Vandals continue to take on the same course they will be competing on for the Big Sky Conference Championship, they hope to build their confidence. “Overall the most important goal is to get a feel for the conference championship course in the spring,” Johnson said. “We feel very good about our team’s confidence with this course and we have demonstrated that we are able to shoot under par on this course.” Idaho is the only team from the Big Sky that was invited to the Las Vegas Collegiate Showdown, and Johnson said that it gave the team a good opportunity to experience the course before any other team. “We know that if we are able to shoot even or under par, we have a good chance to win the championship,” Johnson said. Johnson said she is confident in the team’s ability to shoot well in the final round. Mihaela Karst can be reached at arg-sports@uidaho.edu

There’s a reason why STI talks are so prevalent on college campuses
O
n any given day, students are surrounded by information about how to maintain their mental health, how to be safe with alcohol and how to prevent sexually transmitted illnesses (STI). Although the many flyers, emails and events about sexual health and STI prevention might feel overwhelming or ineffective, there’s a reason why these talks are so prevalent. While the Vandal Health Education events and other outreach efforts might seem unnecessary, the reason for them is because the spread of STIs among college populations is a distinct problem. The discussions and extra information about this topic is one of the only things keeping college students informed. According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) website, once someone has contracted an STI, they are two to five times more at risk for acquiring HIV through sexual contact.
