UNC athletes gathered during National Eating Disorders Awareness Week to lend their athletic perspectives on a discussion of body image Tuesday at the University Center. A panel of 10 current and former
University of Northern Colorado collegiate athletes from a variety of sports discussed topics including body image, athletic diets and the physical and mental demands of their sports. The sports the athletes on the panel played were wrestling, track ball.
The athletes spoke about how most of them do not generally worry about their diets for a body image purpose, but they only worry their sport and what will help them perform better. It was also a consensus that different sports require different diets. See Athletes on page 6

About 24 million United States citizens are suffering from an eating disorder right now. Nearly 50 percent of those individuals are at risk for depression. The Women’s Resource Center and the Counseling Center at UNC hosted the Mind and Body Fair last Monday afternoon. The fair provided attendees information and resources about healthy living, healthy eating, stress relief and self-esteem. This annual event took place as a part of Eating Disorders Awareness Week and was open to the University of Northern Colorado campus, as well as the Greeley community. “It is not often that we hear about what resources and services that exist for those that may See Image on page 6

Whenever awards are mentioned around UNC, students may think of accolades for things such as academics and keeping a miraculously high grade point average. But on Wednesday, awards took on a different meaning as students and faculty were recognized for giving back. The Diamond Leadership Awards were given last week to individuals who accomplished a wide range of services to the campus and wider community. For some it was just on a local level and, in the case of a few professors, the impact was international. President of the National Residence Hall Honorary Angela Wirsching said the awards were to recognize longterm service and dedication to the UNC community. “They were created in order to recognize individuals of the UNC community who have given outstanding leadership service for several years, so we did that by a nomination process and from there, members of the National Residence Hall Honorary,” she said. “We voted, and from there then we decided those and we decided who were going to give the two plaques to.” The criteria for selection is that students must have been involved in more than just the UNC community for several years and go above and beyond in that way. In this case, GPA really isn’t a factor. The real focus is on community service. Those who were given awards had many areas of service from student media

to articles published in several important journals. One faculty member to receive this award was professor Sharon Clinebell of the management department in the Montfort College of Business. As far as receiving the award, Clinebell said she felt she had worked her way steadily up to the accomplishment. “I think it’s just the body of my work, so I worked 27 years here at UNC,” Clinebell said. “I’ve just authored a lot of articles, done a lot of things here at UNC. Something’s in my profession as far as service, so I think it’s just the body of work.”

The atmosphere is positive, and everyone seems to get along and have common interests with a wide range of topics. Every student turns from side to side talking to everyone surrounding them, something rare to see in a college classroom setting. Students have common interests ranging from music to hobbies and, most impormovies.

Campus offers help be struggling with an eating disorder,” said Yvette Lucero-Nguyen, director of the Women’s Resource Center. “It’s important for our campus to be aware of what those resources are, as well as feel comfortable talking about it.” The Mind and Body Fair developed through the idea of bringing awareness to the community by providing information about eating disorders and misleading media images, as well as depression and anxiety awareness. Eating disorders develop from long-term behavioral, psychological, interpersonal, biological and social conditions. It is a complex condition that is physically, as well as emotionally damaging. Some people may turn to food or avoid it as a way to deal with uneasy emotions or complicated situations, such as family issues or loss of a loved one. Others are concerned with their weight and are not sure how to properly handle the situation. Warning signs may include: an increase or decrease in weight not related to a medical condition; abnormal eating habits; secretive bingeing; appearing withdrawn at mealtimes; extreme preoccupation with self-image; fasting; vomiting, or feelings of isolation, depression or irritability. People suffering from
eating disorders should seek professional help right away. Untreated disorders may become chronic or even life threatening. Services offered through UNC, as well as outside associations, were showcased to help with health-related issues. A few of the organizations and resources available included the UNC Counseling Center, UNC Women’s Resource Center, UNC Campus Recreation Center, the Assault Survivors Advocacy Program and the Greeley Wellness Center. Some of the organizations incorporated interactive games for visitors or curious eyes. Guests could create their own inspirational button so they could wear positive go. They could also play a questionnaire game called Plinko, where three white tokens would be dropped into a device that caused the token to land into numbers one through eight. The number determined which question was read aloud. If the questions were answered correctly, participants became eligible to win a free massage, personal training session or nutritional consultation performed by a registered dietitian. Participants entered the contest by submitting their contact informaOne of the answers revealed 40 to 60 percent of young women are concerned about their body

weight. “The questions were kind of shocking,” said Kristina Simon, a freshman human services major, after playing Plinko. “It is sad to think that body image starts so young.” The media has a huge women view themselves because of the use of photo manipulation, airbrushing and technical enhancement. Models are stretched to look taller, their waists pulled in and their blemishes erased away with the touch of a button. “I learned about the photo alterations of teens,” said Erin Poszywak, an academic advisor from the port and Advising. “I am saddened by it because we, as young adults, do not accept the way we look and are constantly comparing ourselves to others or the way we ‘think’ we should look.” Even child toys are in-
harmful to self-esteem. Barbie dolls, for example, are not proportionally correct to the human body. If Barbie were a real human, she would need to walk on four legs to support her distorted frame, wear the shoe size of a toddler and her face would be similar to an alien due to the overly large eyes and tiny nose. A life-size Barbie doll was set up on display for further viewing. The National Eating Disorders Association and the Eating Disorder Center of Denver are there to help. NADA can be contacted at 206-382-3587. One may also visit the Counseling Center or Women’s Resource Center on campus.
Most of the athletes said they agreed that they do often compare their body types to professional athletes and Olympians because of how effective those people are able to use their bodies. They all said they felt they had to look a certain way for their different sports, but not all of the athletes let that discourage the way they look. “You have to remind yourself that everybody’s body type is different,” said Amani Ashby, a junior Junior wrestler Mitchell Polkowske also said that not all athletes need a certain body type to succeed in their sport. “I’ve learned over my years of competing you take what you’re given, and you can make anything work,” he said. “You’ve just got to work with what you got.” The sports appeared to be different when it came to the amounts of food that were acceptable to eat. The wrestlers said they had to eat in moderation to maintain weight for
their sport, while the soccer players said they get to indulge in whatever they wish to eat. The athletes also said that they realize weight isn’t an issue because they are all involved in a sport. Ashby made a point that muscle is generally heavier than fat, and athletes have a more muscular build than the average person. She also said that the weekly weigh-ins the athcauses athletes to compare themselves to their teammates. Overall, the athletes came to a consensus that eating disorders are still found in collegiate athletes. Because of the media constantly pushing appearance even in the world of athletes, it can be detrimental and a downfall to some athletes’ careers. Chrissie Hoolahan, a junior tennis player, agreed that these stereotypical body types could be harmful to some athletes that ever desired to play their sport in the spotlight of the media. “If I ever made it professionally, I wouldn’t want to be criticized,” she said.

Student Senate expects opinion polls to bolster voter turnout Alexandria Adair Vasquez news@uncmirror.com
The UNC Student Senate steadily prepared for April elections at their meeting last week in the Council Room at the University Center. There were two important election deadlines that passed on Feb. 28: the deadlinex for candidate election packets and for opinion poll proposals. Garrett Royer, election commissioner and parliamentarian of the senate, said he had personally met with approximately 40 students interested in running for a position by the time of the meeting. While it looked like there wasa number of people interested in the new councilor positions, Royer said he had only received Aside from the the election packet update, there were two emergency proposals for opinion polls to be included on the April ballot that were major points of discussion. the question to students whethfor the campus to initiate a free safe-ride program.

The program would model Colorado State University’s RamRide, the nation’s largest student-run and operated saferide program, in which students

One member of senate mentioned several UNC students’ involvement in a drunk driving an eye-opener.” The vote was counted twice to ensure it was unanimous, according to a procedure that requires emergency bylaws to be passed unanimously or not at all. Once passed, the opinion poll is included on the election ballot. If students vote in favor of either poll, no action will be required of the Student Senate. Rather than holding merit as far as actual policy goes, the polls’ results are logged as a student suggestion to the senate and the university at large. The next emergency opinion poll proposal, presented by Director of University Relations Julie DeJong, questioned whethpopulation of UNC to initiate a smoke-free campus. The opinion poll, according to DeJong, is an effort to understand student opinion concerning the issue and whether it would be Jong said several schools have recently adopted a smoke-free policy, citing the University of Colorado-Boulder as example.

Two northern Colorado artists, Raymond Schuster and Karen Cade, are featured in the current Mari Michener gallery show, “A View of the West.” Numerous paintings, pastels and mixed media artworks covered the walls of Mari Michener Gallery. Many guests gazed at the works, while eating the assortment of cheese, crackers and sandwiches. The event was organized by Gallery Coordinator, Colette Pitcher, and was open to everyone on campus and all communities. Gallery openings occur every six weeks, featuring a variety of professional artists with a broad array of mediums. This month, the mediums include acrylic, water color, pastels, oil and mixed media. The images that were featured displayed colorful, rich landscapes, wildlife, horses and Native Americans. Cade’s works tended to have
more textures while Schuster’s work was more smooth. All of the artworks featured in the gallery are available for purchase. Schuster is a resident of Windsor and says he is passionate about painting. He said he loved painting as a child, and it has been a lifelong passion. Watercolor is one of his favorite mediums to work with, but he paints with acrylics as well. Schuster also has experience with acrylics and oils. Schuster said he painted often when he was young but did not start painting seriously until he retired. “If you want to paint, start painting,” Schuster said. “Don’t wait until you are 70 years old to start painting.” Schuster continued to say that in his situation there were a number of aspects that kept him from painting, such as establishing a career, having a family and taking care of the needs of life. “It came late, but I enjoy it. It’s always been a passion of mine,” he said. See Gallery on page 19

Sweeney Todd: history that cuts deep IFS takes on Oscars Antonio Hill
arts@uncmirror.com
Who says people can’t change? Sweeney Todd is a character that has been around since the 16th century, but he wasn’t always this dark barber with a taste for revenge. Most people think of the latest adaptation of Todd that comes from English playwright Christopher Bond, who made him the anti-hero audiences hate to love. The history of the “Demon Barber of Fleet Street” is as interesting as the meat pies he had his victims turned into. “I had no idea Sweeney Todd was so old, let alone used to be portrayed so dif-
ferently,” said Mitch Staut, a junior psychology major. “I do really enjoy the play, though, especially the songs. I can play a few on piano.” Scholars debate whether or not Sweeney Todd was a real person, but either way he has become one of the most legendary murderers of England. In America, which is relatively new to the legend of Sweeney Todd, folk stories focus on different characters. Compare that to England, where people have grown up for centuries telling their kids not to walk the streets at night or Todd will get them and turn them into meat pies. “I am fascinated by the Sweeney Todd legend.
I had no idea it had so much history that went as far back to 16th-century Scotland, nor that it had so many re-tellings of the story,” Assistant Director Lauren Stearns said. “The fact that Sweeney is such a prominent character throughout history and has earned the reputation as the greatest mass murderer tion makes the show all the more remarkable to me.” The legend uses the theme of cannibalism to scare people—the thought of eating people, the ultimate taboo—continues to instil fear in people. This fear has been seen in many stories from this time period, such as “Jack and the Beanstalk” and “Hansel and Gretel.”
The easiest way to make someone who does such treacherous things a motive: is exactly with his and that’s
revenge. That what Bond did 1979 musical, the same story -
aptation. “This theme, I think, is one everyone can relate to because we can all be pushed to revenge at some point. It’s just a matter of when and under what circumstances. Even Sondheim speculates this in his musical, saying there is a Sweeney in all of us,” Stearns said. UNC’s steampunked “Sweeney Todd” opens at 7:30 p.m. Wednesday. Tickets are available at unco.com/tickets.

Local brewery hosts jazz program fundraising event David Ochoa

Had you walked into Wiley Roots Brewing Company last Friday evening here’s what you would have seen: A near-capacity tap room and rambunctious laughter coming from groups of friends while the crowd drank dark-tinted beers from glass goblets. Despite the scene at hand, the most pertinent detail couldn’t be seen, only heard. In collaboration with UNC’s jazz studies program, Wiley Roots Brewing Company hosted a fundraiser featuring live jazz to help sponsor an upcoming tour of China for jazz students and faculty. The tour will feature Lab
Band I, which, under the direction of Dana Landry, won Down Beat magazine’s 2013 Student Music Award for “Best College Big Band.” Performances by a faculty quartet comprised of Landry on piano, Jim White on drums, Erik Applegate on bass and Steve Kovalcheck on guitar will also be featured. The two-week tour will take the group through four cities: Shanghai, Beijing, Wuhan and Tianjin. The students will perform at local venues and music conservatories. According Associate Director of Jazz Studies Kelsey Shiba, the opportunity to tour China came about through connections with current students and
former faculty. “Chang Su is the alto sax player in Lab II, and he has great connections over in China,” she said. “He pretty much initiated the whole process and set up everything for us, as well as Gene Aitkin who started the jazz program here. So we’ve been in touch with him because he’s currently teaching at Shanghai Conservatory, so he’s set up a couple of gigs for us as well.” Wiley Roots Brewing Company owner Kyle Carbaugh said the fundraiser initially started with a limited run of dark beers that began Jan. 15 and featured a new dark beer every week. After the promotion ended, beer from these limited batches still remained.
“We were debating what to do with the remaining beer, and we knew we wanted to give back to the community so we contacted some charities, but a lot of them couldn’t do it as quickly,” Carbaugh said. After hearing about the jazz program’s upcoming trip to China, Carbaugh thought that the best thing to do would be to have a and let them have a jam session as well. The evening’s music featured musicians from Lab I, as well as students and faculty from the jazz studies program playing jazz standards in addition to songs from the great American songbook. Students said they were excited about the upcoming
tour of China. “It’s an extremely great opportunity to show the rest of the world what’s going on at UNC and for Lab 1 to be messengers for jazz music and America,” said Patrick Atwater, a senior jazz studies major. Kara Brewer, a senior in music business, echoed similar sentiments. “Who wouldn’t be excited? I think it’s a great experience,” she said. These feelings of excitement weren’t without their trepidations. “I’m kind of worried about the air pollution,” said the guitarist in Lab I Han Eol Kang. “They kind of have bad air–but I’m a chain smoker, so I should be OK.” The evening’s music
elicited emphatic responses from the humming audience, which only grew in energy and volume as the night progressed. “People should dance more. Why can’t this be equal to a hip-hop club? That’s what I think about this music. Jazz can groove just as hard,” senior Makayla Dooley said. bers were not available at press time, Carbaugh predicted that the evening raised $1,200 to $1,500 for the school. est night I’ve worked since I’ve started,” Wiley Roots Taproom Specialist Jenna Hunt said.

Oosdyke heads from Iceland to Germany with new contract Michael Nowels
“The process of me moving to Germany was not a very hard
sports@uncmirror.com
Former UNC basketball player and part-time Mirror contributor Lauren Oosdyke was hooping in Iceland last semester, but she’s made yet another move, this time to Langen, Germany. She now plays for Rhein Main Baskets of the top women’s basketball league in Germany, Damen Basketball Bundesliga. Oosdyke averaged 17.9 points per game for her former team Grindavik, in Iceland, and was offered a contract by Rhein MB. She made the transition near the ing off the bench for Rhein MB, averaging 10.3 points per game in 27.1 minutes played. The transition to Rhein MB was made easier by the German club, though Oosdyke said she still had to complete much of the paperwork that goes into relocating to a new nation.
my contract paperwork,” Oosdyke said in an email. “My club was very organized in helping make the transition to Germany a very easy one. I actually went to visit former teammate Hannah Thornton in Dublin, Ireland before moving to Germany, so she was the last one to send me on my way to another country.” Though Grindavik gave Oosbasketball, she said the move was important for upward mobility and securing a position in the future. “I received a better contract in a better league, so I decided to go through with it,” Oosdyke wrote. “It was the best decision for me and will positively impact me next year in getting another contract in another country.” Oosdyke said her role with
Rhein MB is more similar to the position she held at UNC than the role she had in Grindavik, playing a more interior spot rather than a ball-handling role. “My role is a little different in that I am now playing the position that I played at UNC at Rhein-Main,” Oosdyke wrote. “In Grindavik, I was playing mostly a guard, and now I am playing a post here in Germany. I really enjoy the style they play here, and it reminds me a lot of our style of play at UNC in where we set a lot of pick and roll screens and make a lot of cuts to the basket.” Oosdyke said she believes the skills she gained and lessons she learned in Iceland can help her on and off the court in Langen, even if she hasn’t had to use them yet. “In Iceland, I learned how to live in the really cold, windy, snowy weather,” she wrote. “It has not even been close to being that cold here in Germany yet…

Jump on board with hops, hoppy India pale ales Brews and Reviews By Austin Hutton
India pale ales (IPAs) are a relatively new beer style in the grand scheme of brewing. Similar to porters, IPAs were created in Great Britain. Great Britain basically created the entire style category of pale ales—beers brewed with barley that wasn’t as roasted as the malt used in porters and stouts. Traditionally, though, the most crucial part of
any IPA, the hops, weren’t used in the brewing process at all. Reinheitsgebot, the German beer purity laws, outlawed any ingredients that weren’t included in the law, which kept hops out of ‘pure’ beers. It wasn’t until the 1700s when the bittering agent in the reinheitsgebot, gruit (pronounced “grew-it”), was replaced by hops. My taste buds will forever be grateful to the fellows who decided to use hops instead of gruit. Hops are the domiIPAs. Since their inception into the brewing process, they’ve had variable roles. Most notably though is the hops’ antimicrobial properties. This fancy hop trait is part of the reason IPAs have
the name they do. During the late 1700s and early 1800s, at the height of British involvement in India, beer was still used as a payment for service in the military and was being shipped across the ocean. The beer being shipped was a pale ale that was brewed with extra hops to hopefully keep the beer fresher for the longer trip around Africa and out to India. The extra addition of hops gave rise to the new style, the India pale ale. This style exploded. The soldiers in India loved it, and the success led to public demand once soldiers returned home. It became standard fare at many breweries in the area. The most famous British IPA brewer is called Burton on Trent. It was the most
popular because the waTrent was high in chemicals that accentuated the IPAs have been a British brewing tradition for around 200 years; it was within the last 30 years that American brewers started to take ownership of the style and play with the possibilities. As is typical of American breweries, they’ve taken the IPA style and pushed it to its limits. Absurd IBUs (international bitterness units), ridiculously high alchohol by volume (HBV), or even funky ingredients ranging from fruits to spices or peppers. Americans have embraced this style enough that they have spawned their own style: the American IPA. IPAs have taken off in the last decade, dominating the beer landscape. Avery Brewing Company in Boulder has an annual
IPA festival where it hosts and serves over 100 different IPAs, most of which are just from Colorado. IPA fever has taken the industry by storm and created a sub-sect of beer people known as “hop heads.” These people live and die by the hop. The more interesting the hops, the better the beer. For a fairly new style, it’s recently become the Jennifer Lawrence of the beer world. The girl next door, funloving, goofy, yet also able to perform in a more complex way. As a self-proclaimed hop head, I have loved watching the rise in popularity for this style. More hops please! —Austin Hutton is a senior chemistry major and beer columnist for The Mirror, who also works as an intern at New Belgium Brewing. He can be contacted via email at arts@uncmirror.com.
By Austin Hutton Escape to Colorado IPA by Epic Brewing Company Aroma: Very piney, earthy hop smell. Faint malt sweetness gives some balance and a backbone. Appearance: Pours a golden, copper color. Flavor: Initial hop burst of pine. A citrusy compliment follows, orange peel or lemon. Sweeter notes dominate the back with a Mouthfeel: Highly carbonated. Kind of sticky feeling. Light to moderate body. Doesn’t coat the mouth. Drinkability: There’s something about the sweetness that isn’t the greatest. But the bitterness is nice isn’t overly used in American IPAs. Overall: This is a good beer. I always thought that Epic was from Salt Lake City, and I was right, but I found out they have a taproom in Denver. Always happy to support the local guy, even if “local” extends a few hundred miles.

Outside is where he receives much of his inspiration. One of the most rewarding aspects about painting, according to Schuster, is
when someone develops a connection with one of his paintings, whether it is an emotion, or inspiration that drives the bond. Cade is a resident of

She loves textures and painting wildlife. Art has interested Cade since she was a child. She ished in art. Portraits and oils were what Cade started with, and eventually she became a trained portrait painter. Cade creates most of her portraits with oils and pastels.
