Former company president talks building brands globally SARAH MOE news@uncmirror.com Students in the Monfort College of Business at UNC learned about integrating products into a global market from the former president of several major food chains through the Monfort Executive Speaker Series Monday in Kepner Hall. Neal Yanofsky, who has been president of
Dunkin’ Donuts, BaskinRobbins and Panera Bread, discussed the challenges of creating an American brand in a foreign market. Yanofsky’s presentation, “If There’s a ‘Global Marketplace,’ Why Haven’t You Eaten a Pork Floss Donut?� playfully drew from the name of popular donuts in China. Yanofsky focused on the

consistency versus localization debate, consistency being whether a product is true to a brand’s image and message and localization meaning changing a product enough to fit a market in a culture that differs from the one where it originated. Pork floss donuts, for instance, are glazed donuts that Dunkin’ Donuts sells the world over with pork floss on top because the Chinese culture focuses on eating pork as a main protein. Yanofsky said business people need to be careful not to focus too much on either end of the consistency – localization spectrum. He used common examples from business magazines to demonstrate the dangers of either extreme. Not enough adaptation and business people “let the world pass them by,� but those who
changed too much “forgot who they were,� Yanofsky said. He also gave examples of successful and failed ideas from his own business experience. Other than pork floss donuts, successful ideas included Halloween flavors of ice cream in Japan, iced coffee across America and in parts of Asia and more pralines and cream in ice cream in the Middle East. Failed ideas included ice cream cakes in Indonesia where people don’t have big freezers and dinner food options at Panera Bread, normally known for its lunch choices of sandwiches, soups and salads. Other than the real-world examples, Yanofsky offered wisdom using the example of Dolly Parton. Parton once said she

And I also know I’m not blonde.� Parton’s quote demonstrated Yanofsky’s point that business people need to know what their companies are and are not. He also used the example of a surrealist painting of an artist looking at an egg and painting a bird, a piece by Rene Magritte, as an explanation of what a businessperson needs to do.
“You gotta look at the egg and be able to see the bird,� Yanofsky said. Don Gudmundson, dean of the Monfort College of Business, said the presentation was a great opportunity for students to get information from someone who is actually making business decisions and was also a great opportunity for networking. “I think that’s one of the most important things they can do and that many don’t do,� Gudmundson said of networking.

Dyeing chicks plays down pet ownership responsibilities Dyeing eggs is an Easter tradition. Whether people celebrate the religious aspect of the holiday or not, chances are they have drawn on plain eggs with crayons and dipped them in food coloring to create vibrantly hued eggs. Another springtime tradition that has proven controversial in the past is the dyeing of baby chicks, either through injecting incubating eggs with food coloring or spraying hatchlings with a dye. Poultry farmers have been dyeing chicks for more than a

purple fuzz are adorable and would make a fun pet around Easter. However, people cannot simply have a pet for a holiday. As the chicks grow into fullfledged chickens and roosters, many people do not want to keep them as pets, making dyeing baby birds for a holiday and abandoning them a cruel act. Many hatcheries encourage people to bring the grown birds back once the holiday novelty has worn off or once the chickens become too much
to handle. This is a common consequence suffered by those who buy colored chicks for a religious holiday that is in no way related to the poultry. However, just because some hatcheries provide an easy out for people who don’t think through the responsibility of the adorable chicks doesn’t mean people should purchase them just to take them back. Pets should be pets for their lifetimes, whether a cat, dog, fish, hamster or even a chicken.

half century, and it is still legal in about half the states, but its legality doesn’t mean it’s right. Farmers claim that the dye is harmless to the chicks and the coloring eventually fades as the chick grows into an adult chicken or rooster.

came to my attention via Time Magazine online. Arizona House Bill 2549 states: “It is unlawful for any person, with intent to terrify, intimidate, threaten, harass, annoy or offend, to use ANY ELECTRONIC OR DIGITAL DEVICE and use any obscene, lewd or profane language or suggest any lewd or lascivious act, or threaten to inflict physical harm to the person or property of any person.” I must first admit that there is important and positive language in this bill. Making a death threat or serious harassment is already illegal, so this law would likely make it easier to look into those situations when they are based online. We have all heard the stories of online bullying from children and teenagers. In
some cases, parents have gotten involved, and the issues became serious problems, with lawsuits and violence. This law would likely at least be a deterrent to those types of situations, but to apply the legislation to adults is absolutely ludicrous. People make fun of each other on a daily basis, in jest or in seriousness. Sometimes lines are crossed, but it’s all part of the human condition, and there are important things to be learned from criticism. The world is not full of people simply being kind to each other, and the Internet should not be either. After all, it is becoming an increasingly large part of how we interact with others. If this bill goes into effect, people in Arizona will have to worry about legal troubles
from calling out a Facebook friend for a humblebrag. They would be forced to consider the repercussions from joking around about the crazy actions of reality “stars.” Jabs at LeBron James’ hairline would be outlawed. The fact of the matter is that the Internet is not for porn, as the Avenue Q song would suggest. Instead, it is for trolls and those who enjoy a good “lawl.” Clowning on friends and celebrities alike is well within the construct of the law. If people put things online, they should be prepared for criticism (something I learned earlier this semester). Now, I only have one question: Arizona, U mad bro? — Michael Nowels is a sophomore elementary education major and weekly columnist for The Mirror.

Annual summit addresses social inequalities, civil rights SAVANNAH MCCULLY news@uncmirror.com The annual Summit on Social Justice and Diversity brought together students, faculty, staff and community members Tuesday in an effort to promote cultural and scholastic exploration issues of justice at UNC.
Hermon George, the faculty adviser for the Summit, said the event focuses on issues within populations that have been put at a disadvantage or suppressed. The Summit also focused on the idea that the struggle for these people “marches on” and asks others to join in. Several students who
plan on becoming teachers said they attended the keynote event because of their interests in education. “I was surprised at the different topics that were being presented, but I think it’s important to talk about so many things and spread the awareness of the struggles that disadvantaged groups face,” said Sam Vaughan, a social sciences secondary education major. The Summit was organized into four sessions and featured a keynote speaker. The individual sessions included academic presentations from students, faculty
and community members. April Hernandez, a University of Northern Colorado student, presented her research, “Dispelling the Immigration Myths,” while Elena Nunez from the Colorado Common Cause and Nicole Hurt, a member of the Colorado Progressive Coalition and League of Women Voters, gave a presentation on voter suppression in Colorado. Other presentations shined light on issues such as economic inequality, civil rights, free speech and the Occupy Greeley movement. The Occupy movement
was the focus of the panelist discussion. Mil Hart, a Greeley community member and Occupy Greeley leader, moderated the panel, which included Tamara Infante, a UNC graduate; Ron Peterson, a Greeley resident and former U.S. Marine; and Hollis Berendt, a Greeley community activist. Don Perl, a professor of Hispanic studies, gave the Summit’s keynote presentation. In addition to teaching Spanish at UNC, Perl is also President of the Coalition for Better Education. Perl screened part of the
film “Race to Nowhere,” a documentary that focuses on the price students pay in today’s educational system as high-stakes testing replaces meaningful teaching and learning. George and the Summit Organizing Committee, a student-led group devoted to promoting diversity and awareness around the issues concerning injustice and discrimination, organized the summit.

Ballot initiative proposes fee for sustainability ALEXANDER ARMANI-MUNN news@uncmirror.com It’s election season at UNC, and this year voters will decide on more than just representatives for
Student Senate. In addition to student candidates, this year’s ballot also includes a proposal for a new student organization, Student LEAF. Student LEAF, or Student Leadership for Environmental Action Fund, is the brainchild of Richard Jurin’s environmental science senior seminar class, ENST 405. The mission, according to the group’s Facebook page, is “to empower students in transforming the campus community towards a more sustainable culture.”
“The main objective is to give UNC a better name through environmental awareness and community building,” said William Woods, a student in the senior seminar. To achieve this, the Student LEAF initiative would utilize a student fee of $1 per credit hour, up to $10, for full-time students, to establish a fund for sustainable projects on campus. In an effort to build community and school spirit, all students would have the

opportunity to participate in projects funded by Student LEAF. If the initiative passes, students will be able to apply for positions on the Student LEAF committee, which would become active in fall 2012. The role of the committee would be to review, approve and organize projects proposed by students. The students who established Student LEAF said they would like to see future projects focus on building and grounds improvements that promote resource efficiency and education initiatives that promote an environmentally conscience lifestyle. If the student body approves the initiative, it will then move to the university’s Board of Trustees, which will either See LEAF, Page 8

PVA celebrates dance with a blend of contemporary music SARAH KIRBY arts@uncmirror.com
UNC’s College of Performing and Visual Arts will present a stunning, original medley of contemporary dances, “A Celebration of Dance in Its Many Forms,” from April 5-7 at 7:30 p.m. in Langworthy Theatre in Frasier Hall. The event will include four different choreographers showcasing their craft over the course of three acts. The first act will include a piece by Christy Black, an adjunct professor of
ballet. Her performance will include a percussion ensemble. The second dance will include the work of Jacob Mora, a hip-hop representative from Denver. David Marchant, from Washington University in St. Louis, will wrap up the first act with a characterbased modern dance that is also a type of modernday fairytale. “(Attendees) are going to see the work of four extremely good modern dance concert choreographers and four different types of statements done in intriguing ways,” said
Monte Black, the head of UNC’s dance program. “Students will witness movements they’ve never seen before.” While students may have never seen some of the dance sequences and structures that compose Christy’s piece, “Punks: A Love Story,” they might be familiar with it because of the music accompanying the movements. Performed on the first full-length album by the alternative-rock group The Airborne Toxic Event, “Punks: A Love Story” came into being after the song “Wishing Well” caught
Christy’s ears on an Internet radio station. “I’m always trying to find new movement,” she said. “I don’t take on a new project unless it really intrigues me and is going to push me artistically. The scenic designer and I conceptualized taking the Airborne Toxic piece and were deconstructing the space by flying lights out, flying legs out and utilizing quite a few projections plus other multimedia modes to enhance the overall picture.” A modern and innovative musical selection for a traditionally punk-studded love story, the expression surrounding Christy’s piece is
sure to move audience members through a series of emotions. “Dance is one of my favorite mediums of expression,” said Andrea Pares, a stage manager and sophomore theater design and technology major. “It’s just raw emotion, and I really love it.” Christy worked with stage designers to deconstruct the traditional dance concert stage. Much like how modern dance rebels against steps and positions, the set design will also rebel against traditional expressive and authentic move-
ment and stage elements. In other words, “Celebration” will be a 20th-century idiom. “I think it’s a unique concept-album,” said Amy Bennett, a junior musical theater major performing in the event. “The whole storyline is very unique in how it is staged and will be performed.” Tickets and information for the event are available at www.arts.unco.edu or by phone at 970-351-2200.
“Celebration of Dance” starts on April 5 in Frasier’s Langworthy Theatre.

Young players make immediate impact for softball SAMANTHA FOX sports@uncmirror.com
The transition from high school to collegiate athletics can be difficult for those who are given a starting position. For the UNC softball team (1717), six to seven freshman are starting in any given game, and they have not only made a quick transition but have taken big strides for the program. “They brought in an influx of talent,” head coach Mark Montgomery said of his freshmen players. “They’re playing like veterans, so to have a game where you look out and there are six or seven freshmen in the lineup, and yet they don’t always play like it. Occasionally, they still play like it, but it’s nice. They just seem to be getting better every day.” Among those fresh-

PR class brings spring fun to Boys & Girls Club RAECHEL CASILLAS news@uncmirror.com Students in a UNC capstone public relations class and other volunteers partnered with the Boys & Girls Club of Weld County to provide local children with springtime fun, despite the winter-like weather, with
“Spring Into Fun” Tuesday. The Monfort Youth and Development Center was filled with 85 children, 18 volunteers and two UNC professors for an evening of face painting, egg hunting, taking pictures in a photo booth, sticker decorating and potato sack racing. “It was incredible to see
how excited the kids got when they dressed up and posed for the camera,” said Katie Stults, a senior journalism major. “They were so creative with their choices of costume and poses.” Food was donated by Blackjack Pizza, Olive Garden and the University of Northern Colorado’s Dining Services and was served to give the enthusiastic youth
and their families a free meal. As the event came to a close, UNC students had a hard time saying goodbye to their new energetic friends. “Their smiles were from ear-to-ear as they left and said their thank-you’s, but I enjoyed myself just as much as they did,” said Chelsea Jenkins, a senior journalism major.

LEAF will benefit campus, students LEAF from Page 4 reject or approve the proposal. Students involved in drafting the proposal expressed some speculation over gaining the Board of Trustees’ approval, citing similar initiatives that have been rejected in the past. Strong support from the student body would give the initiative momentum, though. The initiative does offer the prospect of cutting operation costs for the university through projects that improve the efficiency of water
systems and facilities throughout campus. Students who choose to become active in Student LEAF will also benefit. “Not only is (sic) the savings from the renewable energy sources targeted to lower tuition, but it will allow huge career opportunities and experience for students to better assimilate to the real world,” Woods said. If the initiative passes, an information table will be available at the University Center on April 16 for students to learn more about the initiative and proposed projects.
