Records give insight into Bustamante Elizabeth Rudd and Anja Sundali Argonaut

Former University of Idaho assistant professor Ernesto A. Bustamante reportedly talked about shooting students in class, according to an anonymous student evaluation contained in the public records released by University of Idaho officials Thursday. An anonymous teacher evaluation from Bustamante’s fall 2010 Psychology 218 class said, “He talked about shooting students, which was disturbing, and implied that he was (and we should be) drunk and high every other day.” Another evaluation from the same class said, “(Bustamante) is very unprofessional and tends to ÁLUW ZLWK KLV VWXGHQWV µ Bustamante also admitted to having sexual relations with UI graduate student Katy Benoit and other students, according to documents within the records. An employment timeline also showed that Bustamante told Locke he was diagnosed with bipolar disorder and treated it with PHGLFDWLRQ GXULQJ KLV ÀUVW VHPHVter of employment in fall 2007. The number of documents included in the public records release included more than 4,400 emails, electronic and paper records. More information may surface in the following

Scaring for charity Harvest Haunted Barn and Trail prepared for Halloween Kaitlyn Krasselt Argonaut

Now in its fifth year, The Harvest Haunted Barn and Trail has become an annual stop for those looking for a Halloween scare. The 79-year-old barn is owned by Moscow locals Drex and Joanne Rhoades. The Rhoades’ and their family began converting the barn to a haunted house in 2007 as a fundraiser for their children’s soccer team. Since then the event has grown and the Rhoades have donated thousands of dollars to local charities. “We thought it would be a fun fundraiser for the soccer team. Since then, it’s just continued to grow. We’ve given

Spooky scenes, zombies and frights are all a part of The Harvest Haunted Barn and Trail that people can visit Friday, Saturday and Monday. Drex and Joanne Rhoades, who host the event, will be accepting donations with the University of Idaho/ Latah County Relay for Life for the American Cancer Foundation.

a little to a lot of organizations,” Drex Rhoades said. Most notable of the organizations the Rhoades have donated to is the American Cancer Foundation through the University of Idaho/Latah County Relay for Life. “The haunted barn is a fun way to raise money,” said Debbie Jacobs, publicity chair for the UI/Latah County Relay for Life. “We’ve been able to utilize the money raised by the barn to make the event a success.” The UI/Latah County relay donated $76,000 to the American Cancer Foundation last year, a portion of which was raised by the Haunted Barn and Trail. “They’re a big supporter.

We really appreciate everything they do,” Jacobs said. The Rhoades and their children all share a passion for Halloween, which led them to the idea for the Haunted Barn. In 2010, the Rhoades welcomed nearly 800 visitors. Despite this success, the Rhoades were unsure if the barn would be up and running this year because of the DPRXQW RI WLPH DQG ÀQDQFLDO cost it takes to get it going each year. “We just didn’t know if we could do it this year. It’s all in the volunteers — it takes 30 to 40 volunteers just to put on the show every SEE SCARING, PAGE 4

Committed Starbucks fans and coffee drinkers alike have reason to smile as the days get colder, because the VandalStore Starbucks is now open for business. The grand opening was at 1:30 p.m. Thursday at the bookstore and formally introduced the popular coffee house to the University of Idaho’s campus. The “soft-opening” was, Oct. 17, which meant the store was open but had not done any formal advertising, said John Bales, director of the VandalStore. “Our job as a bookstore is to provide services that support the students and enhance their overall education experience,” Bales said. “So we added a product that can improve what we already provide, such as books, technology and Vandal gear.” The layout of Starbucks emphasizes the community atmosphere that the company prides itself on, and provides a new place for students to study. “There is a laptop bar with several

plugins, comfortable chairs to sit in and plenty of space to study, so I think combining a Starbucks inside the VandalStore will add to the on-campus experience,” Bales said. Tyrone Brooks, associate vice president of auxiliary services that oversees the VandalStore, said most college bookstores he has seen have coffee shops inside, so putting in a Starbucks was a good addition. “We liked the idea of collaborating coffee with everything else the bookstore offers,” Brooks said. “This will provide a great place for students to hang out, relax DQG WDNH DGYDQWDJH RI DOO WKH EHQHÀWV WKH bookstore has.” During signature weekends, such as Homecoming, Vandal Friday and Mom’s and Dad’s Weekends, Brooks said having a Starbucks inside the bookstore has potential to draw the attention of future Vandal fans so they can experience a little bit of the university. “Starbucks is universally known, and

Public records released to the media showed that a student said in a teacher evaluation that former assistant professor Ernesto A. Bustamante had talked in class about shooting SPEAK students. How seriously do you think the university takes student evaluations?

OUT

“I’d say from what I’ve seen, the university doesn’t care because nothing is different from now, to when he shot (Benoit), to last year. Everything’s been the same environment-wise.� Brandon Rea - Sophomore

“I don’t think they take them as seriously as they should. Because I also heard he talked about his seven different personalities in class and I don’t think that was ever taken seriously.� Jessie Dexter - Sophomore

“Well I think they really look at the situation before they take into account the evaluation. It’s probably more important to understand what was going on in the situation before you look at the evaluation.� Nicholas Chesnut - Sophomore

“Honestly they don’t take (it) that seriously. In my opinion, I just think it’s just to make the student’s feel better, to make them feel like the university is actually looking through them, but do they really take the time to go through every single one and look at them? I don’t think so.� Skylar Densley - Sophomore

Seniors say goodbye to Memorial Gym Kevin Bingaman Argonaut

The end of the Vandal volleyball season is drawing to a close, and Saturday the team will honor its three seniors in the last home match of the season. Libero Cassie Hamilton and hitters Alicia Milo and Rylee Walker will play for the last time at 7 p.m. Saturday in Memorial Gym when the Vandals take on New Mexico State. The Aggies are holding second place in the WAC standing and will be another tough test for Idaho. The Vandals lost to New Mexico State in four sets in their first meeting this year, and the Aggies will be looking to spoil senior night for Idaho.

November the duo will travel to New York with the chance of becoming National Champions. Finding the right chemistry for a doubles pairing is not easy to do, but with Dobbs and Cirstea, Beaman said it was the perfect matchup. “Andrew is very strong at the net with his volleys and Marius has a very big serve and a very attacking return so in doubles when you have a guy already at the net while the other guy is returning or serving, it allows Andrew to use his strength to put balls away with Marius hitting big off his serve and off his returns,� Beaman said. The two men are aware of each other’s skill sets and both have great respect for the other as a player. Dobbs said Cirstea is probably

the best person he has ever played with. “When we were playing, Marius would hit a serve and even when they would get lucky enough to return it, if anything was short in the court he would just smack it down the middle and they wouldn’t even be able to touch it,â€? Dobbs said. While Cirstea is dominating the back of the court, he said it’s nice having Dobbs up front. “Dobbsy is really good on the net and he moves really well and knows the game so he sees when the guy is going to change it or hit a lob or something and he is always in the right position which allows us to be more offensive and the other team to play defense,â€? Cirstea said. $ ZLQ OLNH WKLV LV D FRQĂ€dence boost for the pairing — one Beaman said he hopes will rub off on the entire team.

“It is good for guys on the team to see that we can be nationally successful with top programs and also to see what hard work turns into or what it can produce,� Beaman said. Beaman said as soon as the team heard of the win ,text messages started pouring in and some guys met up with Cirstea and Dobbs when they got back in town to congratulate them. “The great thing about this year’s team is we have a lot of guys that hang out together off the court, they help each other with projects and with tutoring and at practice everyone is really getting along great,� Beaman said. Beaman said he sees this doubles pairing being together for the whole year and the goal will be to have a strong showing at nationals, and then to play some highly ranked teams next semester

and get high enough in the rankings to be able to go to the NCAA Indoor Championships. Dobbs said he is not going to get too far ahead of himself yet. “Next tournament is in two weeks, New York, just have to go into practice and prepare for it and just try to match the performance we put on in Vegas and see what happens from there,� Dobbs said. Cirstea said they feel really good going into the big tournament. “Our tennis level is pretty high right now, we actually played really, really well in Las Vegas and I think that we can do some great results in New York,� Cirstea said. He said that while he is focusing on New York in two weeks, he is also excited for the upcoming spring season. “The spring season is going to be great because we will be playing together on the court a lot and learning how each other plays so it will help us a lot and make us a better doubles team,� Cirstea said. While the team is playing together on the court, Cirstea said they have a pretty good source for advice, too. “Jeff works a lot with us in doubles and he teaches us the right techniques and the right moves on the court which is what we need to do to be good tennis players,� Cirstea said. He said Beaman is also great at picking out doubles pairings, which is why he almost always has one of the best doubles teams in conference. “He sees what the good things and the bad things are from each player and he combines them,� Cirstea said.

Hurling Southwick into the spotlight will be Peterson’s only option.

Yet considering everything that has led Boise State to nine consecutive bowl games and two Fiesta Bowl trophies in six years, it’s crucial to consider strength of schedule, the primary determinant that measures a team’s success. Unlike the vast majority of Top 25 schools, Boise State has skated by, scheduling a ranked opponent to open the season for three consecutive years. How hard can a season opener be when injuries aren’t a factor?

If the struggles against Air Force are any indication of what their future looks like, Peterson might as well join Moore in next year’s NFL Draft. Say Boise State does endure somewhat of a collapse in the coming years. Will it be enough to revamp the in-state rivalry with its “nasty, inebriatedâ€? neighbors of the north? Not only did BSU President Bob Kustra overexaggerate drunkenness in Moscow, he overlooked Idaho’s success against Boise State’s new Mountain West opposition. That would be 3-1 since 2009, Kustra. Let’s not forget the Bronco’s VHDVRQ Ă€QDOH 'HF FRPHV against a New Mexico team who has been victorious twice in three years. The Broncos have had no trouble routing the majority of the Mountain West this season, but don’t expect Boise State to cruise through to a BCS bowl game. A slip up at San Diego State remains possible while an upset at the hands of TCU is much more promising. Boise State has been longing for an opportunity to compete for a BCS title and even if it does remain undefeated this year, to say it is deserved would be absurd. If calculations are correct, the Boise band-wagoners will drown in the blue oceans of Martin Stadium next season, followed by the football team.

But this year charity is among the happenings on the Palouse.

Saturday’s game against Hawaii will be no different with the drop-off planned WR EH DW WKH QRUWK SUDFWLFH ÀHOG IURP 11 a.m. to 2 p.m. Setting up a food drive where people already plan to spend the day outside enjoying football, is a great way to integrate sometimes

VXSHUÀFLDO FRQYHUVDWLRQV ZLWK charity. It’s a good cause for Vandal fans to participate in and shifts some of the focus away from getting drunk in a parking lot. Tailgating is not the only hotspot to collect food. The Theophilus Tower trick-or-treat event will also collect canned food and provide a safe place for children to enjoy Halloween. Children will be allowed to start at the top of the dorm and work their way down to collect candy, participate in cake walks, pumpkin painting, a haunted basement and other games. The only cost is one canned item per child. It’s great to see college students involved with providing for both a common charity, as well as demonstrating a positive example for children. Volunteering and participating

Protesting is pointless Although organized protest is a First Amendment right, there is a point when it becomes a disturbance and inflicts more damage than the change it inspires. Since August, people in Moscow have been protesting the megaloads by gathering on street corners with signs and Katy Sword Argonaut angry dispositions. However, the accomplishments resulting from utilizing their rights are limited to forcing local police to work overtime. While I may disagree with the megaloads in general, I also disagree with the actions of Moscow residents. Where was their determination when it actually might have done something? The citizens of every other town along the megaload route have remained in check — it is only in Moscow that people insist on protesting. If the protesters want to make a difference, then they need to take action where it counts. Standing on the street corner late at night will not reverse the court’s ruling allowing Mammoet to haul the megaloads. Apparently some activists may be going down to Boise to protest at the Capitol, but the megaloads controversy has been going on for months. If they really wanted to do something, they should have sent representatives to voice their concerns sooner. At this point, there isn’t much they can do. Multiple loads have already driven through Moscow, and standing in the street yelling did nothing to change that. It only increased police presence in the area to make sure nothing violent happened. The megaload protesters also have another flaw: they are not knowledgeable or united in their reasons for protesting. Some are there to protest the megaloads, some to raise awareness about the Alberta Tar Sands and others are just concerned with the climate. The confusion and combination of causes only weakens what little power the group had to begin with. This is a problem that often occurs with protests. A small group feels passionate about something, or multiple things, that might have a legitimate basis and then begin to protest. But what do they actually accomplish? Protests only succeed if they alter the public’s opinion, but most of the public does not want to listen, making the group’s efforts pointless. Occupy Wall Street is another current protest that has been going strong for a month. It may have more numbers than the megaloads group, including a local Occupy branch, and gained the public’s attention, but what have they actually done? They meet, talk about things they disagree with and perhaps write to government RIÀFLDOV %XW HOHPHQWDU\ VWXGHQWV GR that, too. These groups may have legitimate FDXVHV WR ÀJKW IRU EXW WKH\ DUH JRLQJ about it the wrong way. Protesting is a fall-back method that seems to be coming back in style. Raising awareness can only do so much — it’s the results that happen afterward that matter.

in an event that is fun and safe for children is a true testament to the maturity of those involved. Halloween is a holiday many children look forward to because it is fun for them to dress up in cute or gross costumes that they think are just so cool. This view point of Halloween is a pretty big change for college students who would rather dress promiscuous and scantily. To support a child’s excitement for the fun of Oct. 31 is something we should be proud of and encourage. An activity as simple as trick-or-treating in a dorm can be a huge deal for someone who is in elementary school, not to mention they typically think college students are a big deal — you’re a rock star in their eyes. Traipsing through a haunted

house can be just as cool as trick-or-treating college students, and for those who visit The Harvest Haunted Barn and Trail, can include a donation to the American Cancer Foundation. The donations collected at the haunted barn are coordinated and given to the foundation through the University of Idaho/Latah County Relay for Life. Regardless of the event or the charity, the fact that college students and other community members are IRFXVLQJ RQ PRUH WKDQ WKH VXSHUÀcial October events is a step in the right direction.

As Halloween grows closer, there is one question that seems to be on everyone’s mind: What am I going to wear? Now when trying to answer this question there are a few options people usually take and one of those is sluttiness. By this point you have seen it all: the naughty nurse, promiscuous pirate, seductive sailor and whatever other scantily-clad, unoriginal thread of a costume Eric Czirr one might be able Argonaut to dream up. The worst part of it is that for whatever reason we have allowed this kind of behavior to become completely commonplace. And as much as I hate to be the bearer of bad news, people are tired of you showing off the bottom of your butt-cheeks with your Halloween costume. It is not OK to dress like a prostitute simply because it is Halloween. Now ladies, if you are saying to yourself, “But my voluptuous Viking costume is super cute,â€? then I have news — no it isn’t.

This time when you have the urge to buy scantily-clad females alcohol, instead you could give her a nice grandma sweater, because chances are she is probably developing a weird combination of hypothermia and pneumonia walking around mostly naked.

You will save a lot of money at the bars and you can get a nice sense of satisfaction for helping someone who can’t afford an entire Halloween costume. After all, the reason so many people think it’s a good idea to dress hyperprovocatively on Halloween is because you feed into that kind of behavior. Let’s break the cycle this year. But if you all still want to continue this bizarre ritual of the low selfesteem, then by all means make your own decisions. But if this is the case, then I am going to politely ask you one simple question. For the want of having a future generation that doesn’t think it’s OK to turn Halloween into a nudist colony, don’t go anywhere remotely close to where younger generations might be able to see you. You might have a poor shell of an excuse in saying that this behavior was modeled for you, but that doesn’t excuse modeling this type of behavior for others, especially children who are developing their own personalities and self-esteem. Who knows where this strange ritual began between Halloween’s Celtic origins and now, but the Celts at least had the sense to wear DQLPDO VNLQV DQG EXLOG Ă€UHV Seriously it’s cold outside, put some more clothes on.

In other words, the odds that somebody will commit voter fraud are about the same as the odds they’ll be struck by lightning on the way to the ballot box. Far more problems are caused by irregularities at the ballot box like the “hanging chads� on Florida’s 2000 presidential ballot. Getting accurate results depends more on polling places having sufficient funding and trained volunteers. Confusing ballots do more damage to

our democracy than voter fraud ever will. We need to stop throwing away our voting rights to fight an imaginary problem. Tough voting restrictions are designed to keep people from exercising their legitimate right to vote. And it is a right, not a privilege. Voters should oppose any proposed laws that would make it more difficult for any American citizen to exercise their right to vote. And this means getting rid of any politician who would support such a law. Vote them out of office before they stop you from voting.

Records give insight into Bustamante Elizabeth Rudd and Anja Sundali Argonaut

Former University of Idaho assistant professor Ernesto A. Bustamante reportedly talked about shooting students in class, according to an anonymous student evaluation contained in the public records released by University of Idaho officials Thursday. An anonymous teacher evaluation from Bustamante’s fall 2010 Psychology 218 class said, “He talked about shooting students, which was disturbing, and implied that he was (and we should be) drunk and high every other day.” Another evaluation from the same class said, “(Bustamante) is very unprofessional and tends to ÁLUW ZLWK KLV VWXGHQWV µ Bustamante also admitted to having sexual relations with UI graduate student Katy Benoit and other students, according to documents within the records.

Scaring for charity Harvest Haunted Barn and Trail prepared for Halloween Kaitlyn Krasselt Argonaut

Now in its fifth year, The Harvest Haunted Barn and Trail has become an annual stop for those looking for a Halloween scare. The 79-year-old barn is owned by Moscow locals Drex and Joanne Rhoades. The Rhoades’ and their family began converting the barn to a haunted house in 2007 as a fundraiser for their children’s soccer team. Since then the event has grown and the Rhoades have donated thousands of dollars to local charities. “We thought it would be a fun fundraiser for the soccer team. Since then, it’s just continued to grow. We’ve given

a little to a lot of organizations,” Drex Rhoades said. Most notable of the organizations the Rhoades have donated to is the American Cancer Foundation through the University of Idaho/Latah County Relay for Life. “The haunted barn is a fun way to raise money,” said Debbie Jacobs, publicity chair for the UI/Latah County Relay for Life. “We’ve been able to utilize the money raised by the barn to make the event a success.” The UI/Latah County relay donated $76,000 to the American Cancer Foundation last year, a portion of which was raised by the Haunted Barn and Trail. “They’re a big supporter.

We really appreciate everything they do,” Jacobs said. The Rhoades and their children all share a passion for Halloween, which led them to the idea for the Haunted Barn. In 2010, the Rhoades welcomed nearly 800 visitors. Despite this success, the Rhoades were unsure if the barn would be up and running this year because of the DPRXQW RI WLPH DQG ÀQDQFLDO cost it takes to get it going each year. “We just didn’t know if we could do it this year.

Committed Starbucks fans and coffee drinkers alike have reason to smile as the days get colder, because the VandalStore Starbucks is now open for business. The grand opening was at 1:30 p.m. Thursday at the bookstore and formally introduced the popular coffee house to the University of Idaho’s campus. The “soft-opening” was, Oct. 17, which meant the store was open but had not done any formal advertising, said John Bales, director of the VandalStore. “Our job as a bookstore is to provide services that support the students and enhance their overall education experience,” Bales said. “So we added a product that can improve what we already provide, such as books, technology and Vandal gear.” The layout of Starbucks emphasizes the community atmosphere that the company prides itself on, and provides a new place for students to study. “There is a laptop bar with several

plugins, comfortable chairs to sit in and plenty of space to study, so I think combining a Starbucks inside the VandalStore will add to the on-campus experience,” Bales said. Tyrone Brooks, associate vice president of auxiliary services that oversees the VandalStore, said most college bookstores he has seen have coffee shops inside, so putting in a Starbucks was a good addition. “We liked the idea of collaborating coffee with everything else the bookstore offers,” Brooks said. “This will provide a great place for students to hang out, relax DQG WDNH DGYDQWDJH RI DOO WKH EHQHÀWV WKH bookstore has.” During signature weekends, such as Homecoming, Vandal Friday and Mom’s and Dad’s Weekends, Brooks said having a Starbucks inside the bookstore has potential to draw the attention of future Vandal fans so they can experience a little bit of the university. “Starbucks is universally known, and
