Vandal for governor UI alumnus enters gubernatorial race Nishant Mohan Argonaut
Students relax and study between their classes in the newly renovated College of Education Building on campus.

Walking into the newly renovated Education Building at the University of Idaho hardly feels like leaving the outdoors. Walls made almost completely of glass let in natural light. The modernized classrooms have a great view of campus and a roof-top terrace lets students bask in the sun. Two years ago the project started due to the building being deemed “at risk,” said James Gregson, associate dean of the College of Education. “The building was characterized as asbestos rich,” Gregson said. “Normally I think of rich in a positive way, but this time, not so much.”
There were more issues than the million on their own. ARG asbestos, though, Gregson said.

The governor of Idaho has always had the power to greatly impact higher education in the state, but the University of Idaho community may relate more than usual to a current candidate for governor because he happens to be a fellow Vandal. Lieutenant Governor Brad Little announced his candidacy for the 2018 race for governor back in June. Current Governor C. L. “Butch” Otter had previously stated he had no intention of running again. Having announced his candidacy two years before the election, Little is the first candidate in the 2018 gubernatorial election for Idaho. As an undergraduate student, Little earned a degree in agribusiness from UI. During his time as a Vandal student, he was a Phi Delta Theta Fraternity member and after graduating continued to lead his family to become a part of the Vandal family. Both his sons attended and graduated from UI. His grandchildren are sixthgeneration Vandals. “Both my sons got offers from big accounting firms that were there on campus. (The firms) came to campus and explained the skillset they needed so students could work toward that,” he said. Little said he enjoyed his time at UI and it helped lead him to the policies and philosophies that impact his career today. Last legislative session Otter proposed a tuition lock. The policy would keep a student’s tuition at the same price they paid as a freshmen for four years. Little said he wants to make college more affordable, but he isn’t sure the plan would work.

Most University of Idaho students are not native to Moscow and may find themselves a long-term visitor of the small college town. The opinions and needs of UI students is important for the work of Latah County Parks and Recreation Director Andrew Grant. The Parks and Recreation Board is getting ready to create a five-year plan for community parks and has created a survey so residents can let them know what they would like to see at the parks. Grant said he wants to make sure students’ voices are heard along with long-term residents. Grant can relate to the disconnect some students feel to the Moscow community, as

he is a UI graduate not native to the area. “When I was a student here I didn’t use the parks too much and I regret that,” Grant said. “I missed out on some of those opportunities.” Grant went to work with the county after he graduated in 1999 and is responsible for managing the six parks owned by the county, Bateson-Hylton, Moose Creek, Phillips, Robinson, Ed Corkhill Trail and Latah Trail.

The American’s with Disabilities Act became a law in 1990, but much work still needs to be done. Vikke Leeper from the Disability Action Center (DAC) in Moscow said all six of the parks in Pullman were inaccessible for people with disabilities. She said the city was unable to find their transition plan and so a new one was drafted. Leeper said it is important for people to advocate for their needs. “But that’s where if there isn’t the squeaky wheel, it doesn’t get done because they’re gonna keep it on the back burner,” Leeper said. To help people with disabilities live more
independently, the DAC partnered with the University of Idaho to host an independent living and assistive technology conference called “Mission: Possible.” There is also a free comedy show by Michael Beers from 5:30 p.m. to 8 p.m. Aug. 29 at the Marriott Residence Inn in Pullman. Beers said he incorporates his own disability into his comedy act. The conference runs Aug. 29-30 at the Marriott. Leeper said it will feature presentations on how to better live independently. She said workshops will give an overview of how to find employment, housing and transportation and cover topics like financial planning and how to write to a legislator. She said the conference’s title “Mission: Possible” came from the new assistive technology being featured. SEE access, PAGE 5

Livin’ la vida mocha Student employee juggles fraps and class Claire Whitley Argonaut
Jena Hinman loves camping. Her coworker, Bailey Thomas said over the summer Hinman went on a camping trip for multiple weeks with friends in California. “She is all about outdoor stuff,” Thomas said. Hinman, who is a part-time student in her second year at the University of Idaho, is studying English as a second language. The transfer student from North Idaho College plans to teach English in a foreign country once she is finished with school. Hinman works as a student-employee at Starbucks in the VandalStore. She said it is hard to balance some of the corporate rules as well as the VandalStore rules, but they manage, even with some of the hidden menu items that Starbucks offers. “We get lots of requests for things we don’t do, like Italian sodas and carbonated drinks,” Hinman said. “We are just too small to offer those.” Hinman said she sees all kinds of different people during her shifts, and a minimum of 100 different people everyday. She said she has regulars come in, who generally work for the university, but she also gets people who come in just for the seasonal drinks. “Some people only come in for pumpkin spice,” Hinman said. “And that is totally fine.” Hinman, most recently from Coeur D’Alene, said she grew up as an “army brat,” and lived in six different states including California, Kentucky and Kansas. She has lived the last 10 years of her life in Idaho. This is her home. Despite traveling so much as a child, Hinman said she always liked the experience. For her high school graduation she and her mother went on a two-week backpacking trip
through France, Germany and the Czech Republic. Her passion for traveling also shaped what Hinman’s next steps in life are. Hinman said she plans to apply for a job as a flight attendant, and her ideal position would be as a flight attendant on international flights. She said she is currently taking German to make herself more competitive for those types of jobs. Hinman also said learning languages has been an interest of hers. “I enjoy taking languages apart and figuring out what makes them work,” Hinman said. Working as a student employee has given Hinman a lot of confidence, she said. She especially finds it easier to talk to professors and administrators. Hinman makes coffee for some of the upper administrators — they drink coffee just like everyone else. Thomas, who has worked with Hinman for a year at Starbucks, said the three words to describe Hinman are positive, intuitive and clumsy. “She has the most workplace accidents,” Thomas said. Thomas said Hinman is an employee that is sometimes taken advantage of because she works hard, she shows up early, leaves late and is always positive. “Some people do the bare minimum, but Jena tries to make everything better,” Thomas said. Thomas said it is important to not take the first interaction with Hinman for granted because there is a story behind everything that she does. “She is pretty rad,” Thomas said. Hinman said she hopes to work in Germany once she finishes her education. From there who knows, but she said she has a specific location in mind while she saves up her retirement fund. “I plan to retire in Switzerland,” Hinman said. “Since it’s super expensive to live there, it must mean I was successful in my life, right?” Claire Whitley can be reached at arg-news@uidaho.edu or on Twitter @Cewhitley24

Pre-Health Professions Adviser Elizabeth Bryant discusses future course planning with sophomore biology major, pre-med focus David Richards.

Academic cheerleaders
Academic Adviser Liz Bryant is on campus to help students grow Claire Whitley Argonaut
Advisers do more than help students register for classes — they are a sounding board for future plans, a networking connection to other universities and professions and a support system for students as they navigate their college career. Elizabeth “Liz” Bryant has been with the University of Idaho for two years. In that time, she has been working as the prehealth adviser in the Academic Advising
Office. Bryant said she serves as a secondary adviser for any pre-health majors in addition to the students’ faculty adviser. “I’m here to support the student,” Bryant said. “We want students to succeed.” An adviser is someone who serves as a resource for students, Bryant said. They provide information about campus resources, and they make sure students are aware of the opportunities around them. “We are coaches and kind of cheerleaders,” Bryant said. “We are here to support and cheer for (students). We want them to make the most of their time here.” Senior Rachel Anderson said she has known Bryant for three years and said the advising at UI has been a wonderful resource for her throughout her education.
“Liz has helped me numerous times,” Anderson said. “Through all the perils and challenges that come with choosing a career in medicine, she has been my go-to person.” For some students, reaching out to advisers is intimidating, Bryant said. It is especially hard if the adviser and the student don’t click. Bryant said that if a student doesn’t connect with their adviser, it can be hard to open up to them about important things that happen outside of academia that affect classes. Bryant said to increase the likelihood of connecting with an adviser students should ask a professor they clicked with in their degree field. “Most faculty want to honor the request to be an adviser,” Bryant said.
She also said it is important for students to just reach out, even before the first day of classes, and introduce themselves. “I have been led by my advisers to many fantastic opportunities and they also have helped in deciding what the best course load will be for me,” Anderson said. Bryant said she loves hearing from former and current students about their successes in college and beyond. Even if it is something as simple as scoring a higher grade on an organic chemistry test, she enjoys hearing those stories from her students. “We want all our students to be successful,” Bryant said.

Women’s Center celebrates gender equality FEMFest to talk equality on Idaho Commons Plaza Nicole Etchemendy Argonaut
After a month of planning and preparing, the University of Idaho Women’s Center will host one of its biggest events of the year, FEMFest. The event will take place in front of the Idaho Commons Friday from 11 a.m. to 1 p.m. and will feature music, balloons, free ice cream and popcorn. The event’s main focus is to showcase activities that celebrate the progress that women have made throughout history and the world’s movement toward gender equality. All students and members of the Moscow community
are welcome to attend. Assistant director for Programs at the Women’s Center Bekah MillerMacPhee said there will also be a raffle that will give people a chance to win prizes such as water bottles, iPad covers, Vandal totes and a Dutch Bros. gift card. The different elements of FEMFest will bring in extra knowledge and information about the importance of women’s rights and equality. Other organizations will also be present at the event, such as the Office of Multicultural Affairs, Violence Prevention Programs and Alternatives to Violence of the Palouse.

“I think that it will help with our recruitment,” Gregson said, “We have one of the highest retention rates in the state and university. We’re working to improve it.” As of fall of 2015, there were 1,249 students enrolled in the College of Education, said Daniel Campbell, director of assessment and accreditation. Of the graduates, however, both Campbell and Gregson agreed that on average the state of Idaho only retains a slight majority of the new teachers.

He said he is worried about unintended consequences and would like evidence that the plan would work before recommending it. Instead, Little said he would like to see a combination of increases in funding and efficiency. Some efficiency, he said could come from consolidating satellite campuses. Otter’s goal of getting 60 percent of 25 to 35-year-olds an education past high school has been a focus of the state’s education policy in recent years. The goal has come under fire, however, as the state’s position at about 40 percent has remained stagnant and

“Because it’s like spy gear,” Leeper said. “It’s cool stuff.” Leeper said there are nine spots left for the conference and tickets are $50, but she said the fee would be waived for anyone with a disability. The comedy show, however, is completely free. She said it will be held in the Marriott venue and can fit about 100 people. Aerius Franklin is an independent living specialist at the DAC, and he said the center is always looking for caregivers, as either volunteers or employees. He said the state of Idaho has a shortage of caregivers. “It’s just bad, man,” Franklin said. “We need the students. We need anybody actually that’s willing to do the job.” Advocacy is one of the most important things the DAC assists with. Franklin said advocacy means offering peer support and pro-
“We’ve been looking at these numbers,” Campbell said. “We’ve been looking at them because of the teacher shortage in Idaho.” Gregson said fewer teachers are recommending the career to their children and other students, and every surrounding state pays a higher starting salary. “This year, we saw for the first time schools really struggling to find core subject teachers,” McClintock said. Enrollment in every teacher education program in the state has dropped, Gregson said. According to data from the Idaho State Board of Education, in the past six years the amount of teachers leaving their jobs
in the state has steadily increased, while the number of newly certified teachers in Idaho has steadily decreased. In the 2013-2014 academic year there were 934 teachers who sought certification, but nearly 2,000 teachers also left their jobs. In light of this, the College of Education is launching new initiatives to draw in a more mature crowd to teaching as a second or third career. The problem isn’t unique to Idaho either.

viding resources for people to change their communities for the better. “Centers for independent living is basically giving the people with disabilities not only a job, but a way to impact the community and involve the community in what they’re trying to do, and that’s changing the system,” Franklin said. Leeper said most people involved in the original passage of the Americans with Disabilities Act are nearing retirement age, so it is important to get young people involved in this advocacy for more accessible infrastructure and services. She said many things would not get done without the advocacy. “That’s all done at the local level by volunteers that get together and say, ‘I face this barrier. I want to change this,’ and then we given them the tools that they need to go out and do it,” Leeper said. Jack Olson can be reached at arg-news@uidaho.edu

The park could see changes spurred by the results of the survey as soon as next year. Board member Kathy Dawes said the survey only takes about six minutes to complete and is the first of its kind they’ve done for about 15 years. Of course, she said, the survey done back then wouldn’t have been online. The survey asks residents to rate how important certain amenities are to them and how they feel about potential policies like allowing dogs off the leash in certain areas of a park. When it comes to responses, she said the college-age category is lacking compared to residents over
“It’s not just about the money, but it’s also about people feeling respected,” she said. Though the threat to education is looming, the College of Education is trying to play a small part to resolve the crisis. Both McClintock and Gregson agreed that the renovated building is one of the first steps to a brighter future for education. “If we don’t do something now, it’ll continue to get worse,” McClintock said. “With recent legislation, though, I feel like we’re doing something, that there’s more hope.” Carly Scott can be reached at arg-news@uidaho.edu

When it comes to dog owners in the area, the Humane Society of the Palouse has an off-leash dog park, but Grant said that while it is popular, space is limited. “Our parks have more space, so it’s possible for us to provide that,” Grant said. “But with dogs, there’s always a potential for conflict, even out here at the county parks.” The parks are open to UI students as well as residents, and residents are not the only ones supporting the parks. Saturday Grant said around 10 volunteers from the university went out to a section of Latah Trail in Troy to help with vegetation pruning and weed control. The volunteers helped out a lot, he said.

Though he wants to include the needs of university students’ in the department’s plans, Grant said there are some restrictions they should be aware of. “Unfortunately a conflict that happens with students is when they have a large group, usually at Moose Creek and plan on staying up late and being loud,” Grant said. “For the residents and other park users, we do have quiet hours and it is important students know we have overnight fees.” The survey will remain online on the Latah County Parks and Recreation website and available in local libraries until late September or October.

THE ARGONAUT
Scott Fennelly moves from Iowa to Idaho to coach. Page 7
Worth the risk soccer
Tess Fox Argonaut
During last year’s spring season, Idaho women’s soccer coach Derek Pittman knew that he had some recruiting to do. Sophomore goalkeeper Amanda Poertner wasn’t recovering well from a surgery in December. Pittman would need an extra goalkeeper to fill the gap. Meanwhile at the University of Southern California, senior goalkeeper Faith Sugerman was preparing to graduate in May with a B.S. in Environmental Science. After taking a redshirt season in 2013, Sugerman had one year left of eligibility and was looking to start her master’s degree and play her last year of collegiate soccer. After asking around for any players interested in a transfer, Southern California coach Keidane McAlpine told Pittman about Sugerman. “I felt like it was worth the risk,” he said. “Once I saw video of her and with her training at USC we decided to go ahead and bring her on campus and give her a chance to be a part of our program.” The Mendham, New Jersey native started playing soccer in grade school and still remembers the day she found her niche, goalkeeping. “I had a horrible asthma
attack,” she said. “I have exerciseinduced asthma. My coach was like, ‘fine just go and goal we’ll see how it goes.’” From then on out, Sugerman was a goalie. She competed with local club teams and throughout high school. In addition, Sugerman also swam on her school’s swim team. When Sugerman started looking for a collegiate soccer program, she narrowed her list down to Southern California and Bowdoin. Bowdoin is a Division 3 private liberal arts college in Maine. The vast differences between the schools made her choice difficult. “Ultimately I chose USC because of the balance between academics and athletics and the social life,” she said. “Even without soccer I could definitely picture myself there.” At Idaho, Sugerman is working on her master’s in environmental science. “Hopefully, I want to go into the private sector, more on environmental consulting” she said. “Looking to work with projects and get things done with regulation on the smaller scale. Sometimes with the governmental organizations it takes a really long time to get things done and there are a lot of loopholes and
everyone’s trying to push their own agenda. I want to make sure what I’m doing is going to make a difference.” Pittman said Sugerman has been a great fit for the team. “She’s definitely a big time competitor,” he said. “Her and Torell (Stewart) battle day in and day out. They continue to push each other. No matter who I choose they’d go in and get the job done for us.” Even though the two goalkeepers compete for playing time, Sugerman said Stewart has been a great resource during her adjustment. Stewart likes having Sugerman around too. “It’s cool having someone my age who’s been through three (or) four years of college soccer,” Stewart said. “Hearing her perspective from USC has been really awesome. We push each other a lot.” Off the field, Sugerman uses bike rides to de-stress from practice, along with Netflix, a good meal and the outdoors. “It’s not a convertible,” she said. “It’s still really nice. Those two separate bike rides really make me calm down.” Tess Fox can be reached at arg-sports@uidaho.edu or on Twitter @tesstakesphotos

An agenda for success The Idaho volleyball team prepares for their tournament opener Luis Torres Argonaut
After finishing 10-6 in the Big Sky Conference last season, the Idaho women’s volleyball team moves forward. Their season begins 9 a.m. Friday against Fairfield in Albuquerque, New Mexico. Junior middle blocker Torri Crawford said the team is looking forward to the new season. “I’m excited to see how everything is going to come together in a gamelike situation,” Crawford said. “We’ve tried to simulate it as best as we can during practice, but you never know until you get into the game.” Crawford is returning to the court after an abdomen injury sidelined her midseason. Since their last game against Idaho State in the Big Sky tournament Nov. 20, the Vandals have dealt with injuries and a young lineup with defensive specialist Terra Varney as the lone senior leading 11 underclassmen. Idaho is slated to finish sixth in the conference polls. Idaho coach Debbie Buchanan said she isn’t surprised by
the ranking. “We’ve lost seven players and added six new players on our roster,” Buchanan said. “Voted sixth is probably a good place to be because we got to prove ourselves and it’ll give us a bit of focus and motivation every day when we go into the gym.” Freshman outside hitter Avery Housley will likely redshirt after suffering a torn anterior cruciate ligament (ACL), according to Buchanan. The remaining five freshmen are contending for spots in rotation. Buchanan said injuries have put a damper on the team’s progress in practice. “To be honest, it’s been a slow start,” Buchanan said. “Kaela Straw was coming back from foot surgery, Becca Mau from hip surgery and Torri’s hamstring come back so we had to get acclimated a little bit. Right now we’re trying to really break the middle a little bit more at the beginning and go a little bit harder towards the end of our routines.” Even with several setbacks, Buchanan said there are some bright spots on the court. “Our ball control and passing starters have done a great job running the offense,” Buchanan said. “We’re going to keep getting better but I really like the tempo and how they’re keeping
going for it.” Crawford said there is a positive side to the injury upsets. “It gives other girls chances to play in those positions they might not have before,” Crawford said. “It’s making us well rounded.” Among the team’s dynamic change, Buchanan said Varney has emerged as a leader. “Terra has been playing really steady, the best that I’ve seen her play,” Buchanan said. “She’s really balanced, staying within the system and doing a great job leading and communicating with the team.” Varney led with 28 service aces last season and was third in digs with 337, averaging 2.96 per set. Buchanan’s biggest concern before the Vandals play their first tournament is its offensive numbers. “Our ball control and our passing is going to be our offensive scheme,” Buchanan said. “We only have two middles and have to keep them healthy all season. With kids coming back from injuries, it’s going to be a little bit different but (the coaching staff) have to make sure that we’re watching the reps and try to put the best possible lineup on each match.” Luis Torres can be reached at arg-sports@uidaho.edu

There could be a multitude of reasons behind the lack of positive promotion of female athletes, but one of the most likely causes is the lack of female reporters during the Olympics. While 45 percent of the athletes are female, women only make of 21 percent of the press covering the events. This does not mean men are incapable of writing positive and thoughtful articles about female athletes, but perhaps having a more diverse press corps would give a better perspective regarding women in the games. As the games continue, it’s time to start tweaking some of the remarks heard in commentary. Instead of labeling Simone Biles as the Michael Jordan of women’s gymnastics, label her as one of the greatest gymnasts of all time. Rather than describe Katie Ledecky’s swimming style as “swimming like a man,” list her achievements, including her five Olympic medals. The media should start focusing on these athletes’ achievements, on their talent and athleticism, and on their drive to excel in their sports. Society should not overlook the power and dedication these athletes have, and should start giving credit when it is due.

Ginther said her biggest improvement over the years has been the amount of confidence she has in herself, and Idaho assistant coach Travis Floeck agreed. “For Ally, the key is being confident for sure,” Floeck said. “I think last cross country season, I was really proud of her because she started off running probably the best she’s ever had in the early meets.” Not uncommon for athletes, Floeck said Ginther ran into a bit of speed bump midway through last season. “I think it was just tied in with her confidence and some anxiety with racing,” Floeck said. “A lot of times when that happens with athletes in the middle of the season, it’s extremely difficult to gain that confidence back and to rebound sometimes. But she actually did an awesome job.” Ginther has set a personal goal for herself to place top ten at the Big Sky Conference meet in

Ginther said her biggest improvement over the years has been the amount of confidence she has in herself, and Idaho assistant coach Travis Floeck agreed. “For Ally, the key is being confident for sure,” Floeck said. “I think last cross country season, I was really proud of her because she started off running probably the best she’s ever had in the early meets.” Not uncommon for athletes, Floeck said Ginther ran into a bit of speed bump midway through last season. “I think it was just tied in with her confidence and some anxiety with racing,” Floeck said. “A lot of times when that happens with athletes in the middle of the season, it’s extremely difficult to gain that confidence back and to rebound sometimes. But she actually did an awesome job.” Ginther has set a personal goal for herself to place top ten at the Big Sky Conference meet in
My favorite thing about running is how your mind wanders, especially during long runs. Ally Ginther
October, a goal Floeck said she is definitely able to achieve. “It’s an incredibly competitive conference so it’s a big goal, but it’s not one she should shy away from,” Floeck said. “She’s capable of doing it, and I think what motivates her to do that is trying to help the team place as high as we possibly can.” Mihaela Karst can be reached at arg-sports@uidaho.edu

UI faculty and students perform in “Rising Momentum,” a Fall 2015 show that is tradition where students are given the chance to work with professional choreographers.
Mind, body and balance UI professor Belle Baggs plans to use grant money to help students achieve balance in dance Kevin Neighbors Argonaut
The University of Idaho Dance program received a grant this semester from the university to enhance the experience of dance students. Belle Baggs, University of Idaho Dance co-director, planned to use this money towards inviting guest artists to the university in order to diversify student experiences and continue to promote balance between life, art and science among dance students. Belle Baggs describes the most crucial aspect of dance as balance. The UI Dance program’s new grant comes from fine arts fees from the university, Baggs said. The money the department received will be used to help fund the fall production, “Defining Balance.” Part of the money will be used to pay for residency for guest artists who will contribute choreography to the dance production performed by students. The money will also go to hiring stage managers, costume designers and lighting designers from the UI theatre department, Baggs said. The fall dance production is an intrinsic part of the program’s dance education. The program focuses on developing professional understanding and practice in

the industry. In the fall production, students receive choreography from professors and guest artists for a taste of what their jobs will be like in the world. The focus of the production is to develop a sense of excellence, discipline and vigor in dance students, she said. “We have been titling our fall concert based upon what we feel is going in our program,” Baggs said. The first concert was named “Pulse,” she said. “We titled it ‘Pulse.’ New things were happening, it was exciting, like pow, pow, pow here and there. We were making changes to support our passion and the integrity of dance and study of dance, and to get our students to the idea of preprofessionalism and excellence,” Baggs said. The second fall show was titled, “Rising Momentum.” “We felt like we had all of these new ideas out there and we thought, ‘how do we keep
going with it’,” Baggs said. This year’s title is “Defining Balance.” “Now that we have had the ‘momentum rise’ it is about balancing. What is balance?” Baggs said. “What a great metaphor for dance, I think we often think about balance as this thing that is held and concrete and stiff, but actually its our ability to be adaptable and mobile that makes us stable.” Balance is a complex idea. There are a lot of different meanings behind the word, but what’s important for us is the balance between art and science Baggs said. “As bachelor of science degree, we feel proud to balance art and science. What we do is this beautiful art form, but how can we also support it through the science? So, getting to know our bodies, and the health and the safety of our bodies are something we have been pushing for our students,” Baggs said. “We are trying to keep in communication with our students about how they balance their lives.” The Business Insider did research that targets dance as the number one most demanding and active job Baggs said. “How do we prepare our students for that reality?” Baggs said. “It can totally overwhelm you, how do you balance your life? Some of that is ensuring students are in the correct levels, in an optimal learning environment, learning at a pace that is supporting their growth in a healthy way.” There is a lot of information out right
now about how to train the body as dancers, but what is equally important is how to train the mind to be present in the moment Baggs said. It is critical to be positive and open to new experiences in art, she said because artists have to allow expression to flow through the body and that begins with a receptive mind. “Our students are taking risks,” Baggs said. “Within that risk they learn how to set boundaries and are able to move with freedom without losing control.” Dancers have to root themselves in something to discover a sense of freedom. It’s not easy, it is something you have to work for she said. So much about the arts is what it means to be human, she said. “I bring to the classroom that bridge between what we are doing, why it matters, why we are doing it together and why we need each other. I try to help students relate it to themselves as people,” Baggs said. When students can connect dance to their own humanity and develop balance they discover intrinsic motivation, Baggs said. “Intrinsic motivation is the most important thing to student success if they can find something from the inside that drives them to work hard, to have discipline, to explore, to take risks, that is where it’s at,” Baggs said.

Five essentials for a fashionable fall A brief list of five fashion picks for men this fall season Justin Johnson Argonaut
Fall is just around the corner, and with school starting and the weather changing, it is appropriate to get a head start on what to wear for the upcoming season. For most men, it is not at the forefront of their mind to dress up or think about what they are wearing. Other men don’t care. Men like comfort. But, with comfort should also come style. Here is a list of five basics and a guideline for men who either don’t know or would like to know how to dress for the fall season. 1. Pair of dark wash jeans: Fall is all about the leaves changing and air getting
cooler. Leave the light wash and ripped jeans at home and be ready for a sunny day. With the school year starting, you want to look cool and professional. 2. Get two good belts: one brown and a black. You want to make sure they are one size up from your pant size (waist 30”, get a 32”). Belts are a smart accessory, not only for keeping pants from sliding down, but they add a sense of attention. A cardinal rule with belts is that they match shoes and, if it’s leather, a watch. 3. Thermals and cardigans: For most men, cardigans can be tricky, but they are a great investment. They’re comfortable, classic and everyone loves them. From Frank Sinatra to Ryan Reynolds, the cardigan is the sign of a man who’s not afraid of taking the next step in their
style. And if that’s still not a preference, try cool thermal worn over a tee-shirt or button down. This still offers a comfortable look without looking too lazy. 4. Ankle or high top boots: Try putting aside those summer sneakers and get ready for a more solid and edgy look. With the weather changing and snow coming, a good pair of ankle boots is essential. These are great to wear not just for fall, but year round. Get a comfortable and sturdy pair, able to withstand the weather and look great with chinos or slacks. Wear them with cool, dark jeans (try the cuff also). 5. Coats and accessories: The wonderful thing about fall is that layering is an option, mix and match. Don’t be afraid to add a scarf to the look or maybe get that silly beanie with the fuzzy ball on the top.
Also, try layering some things from summer like that jean jacket. Throw it over a zip up hoodie. The one thing every man should look out for is the classic peacoat. Worn by sailors and celebrities alike, it’s become a stylish favorite among men who want to look good and feel good. Add to it a slick black umbrella, it makes the outfit complete and you’ll be prepared to stay dry and looking fly. There it is, some easy basics to get men ready for fall. Being wardrobe conscious shows preparation and appreciation for personal presentation. Highlight style with personality, and feel good about looking good.

THE ARGONAUT
A fermented identity friday fiction
Lyndsie Kiebert Argonaut
Benjamin Hereford didn’t know how he’d gotten there — all he knew was in his right palm rested his weapon of choice: a wine key. He’d always wondered why the hell they called it a “key.” It hardly resembled a key. He couldn’t understand it could be referring to the various worlds the handheld contraption could unlock — doors to worlds of oaky undertones and fruity layers, the cool bite of a blanc, the fullbodied richness of a good syrah. Benjamin couldn’t understand why the peculiar tool grasped between his fingers was called a wine key because he had no such knowledge of wine. In fact, he’d never opened a bottle. The guy was a poser. But here, on the 27th floor of the Grand Merrimount Hotel in New York City, no one knew how he’d simply faked it until he made it — made it onto the serving staff at the hotel’s most prestigious restaurant, La Cave a Vin, thanks to family connections and an intricate web of lies regarding his supposed experience in high-class dining. Admittedly, the guy could entertain a table with the best of them. He could serve up a flank steak bathed in gourmet mushroom sauce as if he’d followed that slab of meat from birth to plate, and compliment his patrons’ pocket squares while he was at it. Women flipped their hair, men fiddled with their ties. Honestly, the transition from the corner diner to panoramic city views hadn’t been that hard. Benjamin had a knack for people, and people a knack for Benji boy. And yet, in the four days Benjamin had spent serving at La Cave a Vin, his tables had yet to order an entire bottle of wine, which would require a noble presentation of the label, a brief description of the nec-
tar’s origins and the oh-so-important task of performing the tasting ceremony. Until Saturday evening, when New York State senator and self-proclaimed wino Claudia McClane strolled in for her 6:30 p.m. reservation, flanked by other political heavyweights from within her social circle — four of them in total. Displeased to hear her regular server, Gerrard, was out with a cold, Ms. McClane requested the next best the Vin had to offer. The hostess had spent the last four nights watching Benjamin charm the daylights out of country club elites and stuffy banker types, so she did what any logical hired-for-her-looks hostess would do. She gave the senator to the new guy, who then promptly ordered her favorite bottle of red. And thus, Benjamin stood with the wine key in his right hand and one bottle of Californian cabernet sauvignon tucked in the crook of his left arm, hiding just inside entrance to the kitchen. It should be simple, really. He’d seen a couple of the other servers do it — carrying on light conversation, casually fighting their way through foil and cork to pour the juice with elegance. Could it really be that hard?
Benjamin strode to the senator’s table and flicked open the knife on the wine key.
Crap, he thought when he saw McClane’s furrowed eyebrow. I forgot to present the label. He did with a shaking voice, and the senator nodded with delight. OK, cut the foil. Hold adequate pressure on the neck of the bottle with your thumb. Peel. Good, foil done. Benjamin tucked the foil in his pocket just as the questions began. First the senator — she wanted to know his name. Then her counterparts — they wanted
Megan Hall | Argonaut
to know his hometown, what he thought of that particular blend of wine and the origin of the mushrooms that came on the prime rib special. Benjamin could hardly remember his own name, not to mention everything else. As he adjusted his grip to force the key’s screw into heart of the cork, he felt his sweaty palm slide against the burgundy
glass. Then, the dull thud and subsequent crash of glass breaking. Benjamin ran before the river of red could leave its mark on the restaurant’s hardwood floor. Lyndsie Kiebert can be reached at arg-arts@uidaho.edu or

“Hydrodome” world premiere Andy Behrle’s “hydrodome” displayed in completion for the first time at Prichard Art Gallery Nina Rydalch Argonaut
For four years, Andy Behrne constructed a three-dimensional dome that submerges viewers into a surreal, underwater world. This artifice presents flickers of lights flowing inside the dome through video projections. The exhibit debuts at the Pichard Art Gallery Aug. 19 to Oct. 23. “Last Saturday we had a man named Ryan Harvey, who is a Juilliard-trained violinist, come and he gave a free performance and it was — it was beautiful,” said Assistant Director of Prichard Art Gallery, Nara Woodland. “It took it to a whole new level. The music seemed to almost change with the way the light being projected onto the dome happened.” Roger Rowley, director of Prichard Art Gallery, said Andy Behrle received a grant to create the “hydrodome.” He said
Behrle created the frame out of wood and bolts and then applied clear shrink-wrap, the kind often used to wrap boats when they are being made or shipped across the country. “It comes in both clear, white and blue, and so he was working in both clear and white. The white holds the image here (on the surface of the “hydrodome”) but it makes the inside a little less — a little more muted,” Rowley said. Different videos of moving water are projected onto the dome, creating a feeling of calm. Rowley said most footage was shot by Behrle himself, although there is one video shot by a scientist studying at the University of Idaho. “There may be additional videos coming from other scientists,” he said. Andy Behrle is originally from Massachusetts, and currently lives in Zillah, Washington, outside of Yakima, Rowley said. He said Behrle has mostly shown in the Greater Seattle and Portland areas during his time in the northwest, and has even displayed the “hydrodome” in the works.
“This is the first time ever the whole dome has been constructed and presented,” he said. Woodland said she was amazed at the art piece, and did not think photographs could do it justice, as the feeling of the dome couldn’t be communicated by visuals alone. Behrle has two other displays in the gallery, both of which are consistent with the watery light theme. These pieces are known as digital wallpaper, and involve a projector displaying a fixed pattern framing various video-clips of moving water. “How you read the structure, the image, kind of evolves in terms of the underlying image,” Rowley said. The “hydrodome” is the first exhibit in the Chamber Series, a collection of very different artworks. Rowley said the common factor is the gallery itself changing its space to accommodate each piece. “Generally speaking, a gallery will be ‘here’s the space, give me your art, we’ll put it on the wall’ ... for the Chamber Series we really want to think about ‘what is it that the artwork demands’,” he said.
For the “hydrodome,” Rowley said they wanted to control incoming light and reduce visual business, which they achieved by constructing an additional wall and boxing the dome off from the rest of the gallery. He said the wall could be moved anywhere to change the space and help the gallery conform to the art. The last day of the “hydrodome” exhibit will be Oct. 23, with a reception Friday, August 26, 5-7 p.m. “I would like to encourage all students to come down and see this exhibit,” Woodland said. “It’s not something they would normally see, unless they were in a larger city, and Andy’s work is important to the artwork that is going on today in contemporary art, and I think that even people who feel like they don’t understand art or don’t know much about it, they walk away with an appreciation that will be very valuable.” Nina Rydalch can be reached at arg-arts@uidaho.edu or on Twitter @NinaRobin7

Honoring investments Transparency is important for the university to create healthy relationships with students
T
he basis of any healthy relationship is built on good communication. A positive relationship develops from the willingness to express needs, desires and concerns. This is no different for the relationship between a university and its students. The quality of relationship with an organization is often reflected in its transparency. A transparent organization communicates openly and frequently with its constituents, with no intent to hide information. Transparent organizations often create positive relationships because their stakeholders are well informed about procedures, policy and intent. The stakeholders feel involved in the conversation. Contrast this with a non-transparent organization. Their stakeholders feel that they are facing dictation rather than involvement in the debate. Any notable
change made will come as a complete surprise to constituents. It is rare to find ‘good surprises’ when it comes to corporate communications. For an organization like a university, though, transparency is especially important. Students pay the institution increasing sums of money and in return expect to be involved in, or at least aware of, the administration’s plans and procedures. A university that wants to create loyal, life-long alums should begin with nurturing that administration-student relationship early. Transparency is the best way to do so. When an organization endorses an open attitude, it appears that it has nothing to hide. Organizations that are not transparent may be suspected of concealing facts or intents, regardless of their true intentions. For example, the University of California system found itself facing a state audit in May after claims that the institution was focusing efforts specifically toward accepting out-of-state students. After the news broke, school officials claimed the move was meant to raise revenue for the university and allow the acceptance of more in-state students.
Understandably, this created tension for students invested in an education from this state university system. It is also important for universities to follow through with their intent to be transparent, especially in relation to any policies that are passed that affect those on campus. Any and all steps leading up to a decision should be announced clearly and openly, so students, faculty and staff are not blindsided by a decision being voted through. It is important for students and faculty to know the mindset of their administration. They have a financial, professional and emotional investment in the institution. It is important their values align with the administration’s, because both entities support each other and work closely together. Non-transparency leads to students and faculty being uncertain of their university and uncertain as to why they should support it through thick and thin. Transparent organizations are honest organizations, and knowing the truth is always better than not knowing at all.
