A NATION WITHIN A STATE
By Miranda Lorenc STUDENT LIFE CONTENT EDITOR
In a not-so-far-off land, surrounded by mountains, sagebrush and local wildlife, lies the isolated Republic of Zaqistan. Largely unknown and rarely visited, this uninhabited independent nation is located in the northwestern desert of Utah, four hours away from Salt Lake City and miles from any source of water or human civilization. Zaqistan was formed 11 years ago when Zaq Landsberg bought two acres of land from eBay and created a conceptual art piece designed to challenge views of what makes a government and a border. He did this by declaring Zaqistan an independent republic, complete with a border port of entry and a tourism office exhibited at Central Utah Art Center (CUAC)

in Salt Lake City. As part of the art exhibit, CUAC shows tourism videos, shares Zaqistani history and sells fake Zaqistani passports and citizenship documents along with a variety of Zaqistani souvenirs. Last Sunday featured a first-ever tour that brought visitors to the micro-nation. “What drew me in was this fabled land of Zaqistan nestled in the hinterlands of Box Elder County,” said Forrest Schoessow, a master’s student in geography. “This journey out there had all the trappings of high adventure, as far as I’m concerned. Like arduous trek out there, shrouded in mystery.” Schoessow and several other students from Utah State University traveled three hours from Cache Valley last Sunday afternoon for a
rare opportunity to tour the Republic of Zaqistan. “It’s literally in the middle of nowhere,” said Mikey Kettinger, a graduate student studying the intersection of art and science, technology, engineering and math (ArtSTEM). “It’s surrounded by millions of sagebrushes, and rattlesnakes, and beetles, and fire ants and sand. No humans anywhere close, at all.” After a long and bumpy car ride on paths that were not often traveled, the USU students were greeted by a giant metal robot sculpture and the bright red Zaqistani flag. Shortly after their arrival, they were joined by a second group who had driven up from Salt Lake, led by the founder of the small micro-nation, Zaq Landsberg, who was hosting
this expedition for the first time. Organized as a tourist experience, Landsberg introduced his 20 guests to the history of Zaqistan along with the various art sculptures located within the nation, including the Decennial Monument, the Victory Arch, a plastic wildflower garden, the Guardians of Zaqistan and more. “The point of Zaqistan is to make us question what constitutes a nation, what counts as a country,” Landsberg said. “What is the difference between the United States and Taiwan, which is not a [United Nations] member state, and the Vatican which is, and how these lines, these property lines in my case or borders between countries and these abstract concepts see “Zaqistan” PAGE 7
Herbert and Weinholtz debate at USU By Alyssa Roberts NEWS STAFF WRITER
It’s a typical debate. Candidates stand at podiums. One wears a red tie, one wears a blue tie. They accuse each other of incompetence and expound on their own personal virtues and accomplishments. And voters are left to decide who did a better job of making himself look better than his opponent. It’s typical, and so it’s easy to tune out -that’s what Ian Nemelka, president of Aggies for Liberty, said he’s concerned about for students at Utah State University. “This [local election] is not seen as nearly as important as it needs to be,” Nemelka said. “Governors do so many things and representatives do so many things that go right over our heads.” They go right over students’ heads, even when they’re discussed on our campus. Monday night, Utah gubernatorial hopeful Mike Weinholtz and incumbent governor Gary Herbert faced off in a debate held at USU’s Caine Performance Hall. The candidates discussed a range of issues,
including medical marijuana legislation, the proper use and distribution of public lands and Utah’s clean air issue. While these topics were discussed, it seemed that all roads led health care. Weinholtz called Herbert and the Utah legislature’s combined decision not to fully expand Medicaid in conjunction with the Affordable Care Act “one of the worst examples of putting politics before people” he’d ever seen. Herbert pointed out that he had proposed a plan which he thought was better than Medicaid expansion called Healthy Utah. But he hadn’t been able to get that plan past the legislature. “Maybe you should take a hand at being in the legislature and see if you can help get it past the house,” he said. Herbert also accused Weinholtz of not fully understanding the politics behind the issue. “You just don’t understand how the system works,” he said. Weinholtz’s political inexperience is also a concern for Adam Hunt, president of the USU College Democrats. That won’t stop Hunt from supporting the Democratic candidate,
though. He said choosing not to expand Medicaid was “one of the worst things” Herbert has done. Herbert expressed concern with the flexibility, or lack thereof, he thought the Affordable Care Act provided. He said he didn’t think Utah needed the same kind of health care program as other states with different demographics. Herbert also insisted that his unsuccessful Healthy Utah proposal “covered everybody.” The fact remains, though, that the health care
legislation passed under his administration covered only nine thousand Utahns. Weinholtz called this a “moral outrage.” “What our legislature did and what our governor signed into law last semester was picking winners and losers,” he said. Weinholtz vowed to fully expand Medicaid if elected governor. Herbert said he thought the legislature would need some convincing. “I think there’s opportunities to get out there see “Debate” PAGE 7

Aggie volleyball gears up for Colorado State By Paige Cavaness SPORTS STAFF WRITER
The Utah State volleyball team takes on longtime conference powerhouse Colorado State Thursday evening — and this year, the winds of change are blowing for both teams. Last time the Rams traveled to Logan to play the Aggies, the Rams shut them out in straight sets, a month removed from the same outcome in Ft. Collins. Utah State’s head coach Grayson DuBose said that first game of last year was rough due to multiple injured starters. Junior outside hitter Kayla DeCoursey remembered that last match-up with the Rams, saying both teams have had pretty telling first five weeks of volleyball. “This season has been a little different, they haven’t been as dominant as they have been,” DeCoursey said. “We are a lot better than we’ve been in the past, too. So I think this is a really good chance for us to go and play really well and beat this team.” The Aggies have already won as many games in the first month of their season as they did all of last year. DeCoursey and DuBose both said that has added to their confidence going into this game. Head coach Grayson DuBose is familiar with the Rams’ coaching style and is the first to admit the Aggies are up against a tough opponent. “They’re a good team,” DuBose said. “Bottom line is they’re the best team in the league until someone knocks them off.”
PHOTO COURTESY OF Justin Quinn Kayla DeCoursey leaps to block a kill against OSU volleyball at a tournament at the start of the season.
The middle blockers and right side of Colorado State have caught DuBose’s attention and he said that good service from his team will get the Rams out of system so the Aggies can take control of the game. The height they will see in the Rams’ squad is something that’s hard to simulate in practice but DuBose said it’s something he is confident they can play against because of how the women on his team have already played this season against similar opponents. “We’ve played really good volleyball this whole season. We’re like 6-7, so it’s not this great record but our volleyball numbers are
good…” “Last year we were struggling trying to figure some stuff out, we’re a different dynamic now,” DuBose said. “It’s the same kids, but better volleyball players.” Colorado State is welcoming several new players this year, and head coach Tom Hilbert will be starting a freshman setter alongside other new faces. Despite the turnover, CSU’s perennial dominance means it will be important for the Aggies to just play their game. “Volleyball is so random, with all the different things that could happen, so for us it’s
more like let’s take care of us,” DuBose said. “They’re going to do what they’re going to do and we’re going to do what we’re going to do, and we’ll see who wins.” DeCoursey has put in work off the court and experienced enough with her team to gain the confidence that she can do what it takes to win. “Last year we were at the same place and we were trying to be better but we didn’t have any clear goals,” DeCoursey said. “So this season we’ve set some really clear goals and we’re working really hard on meeting those and doing a good job at it so far.” One of those goals they have is to improve on kills per game. Both Kaylie Kamalu-Smith and Lauren Anderson are ranked in the top 10 of the MWC in kills with 160 and 154 respectively. “They aren’t as confident coming into this season,” DeCoursey said. “I think that’s something we can play upon if we come out really strong in those first few sets and really just show them what we’re made of.” “I have confidence in my teammates, as well,” DeCoursey added. “I’ve seen how hard they’ve worked and the time they’ve put in and the things we’ve accomplished together.” Fans are encouraged to wear white to participate in the home opener whiteout game, which starts at 7 p.m. in the Wayne Estes Center.

and work with the legislature,” he said. “We’ve got to convince them, though, that this is the fiscally proven thing to do.” Fiscal responsibility was another major theme of the debate, and one of Herbert’s main arguments for re-election. He talked about growing the economy and about making Utah “the best place in this country for people to live the American dream.” Keaton Smoot, public relations director for the USU College Republicans, said he supports Herbert because he thinks his economic policies have worked. “The results speak for themselves across the board,” Smoot said. Though he supports Herbert’s candidacy, Smoot said he thought education and land use are two areas where Herbert could use some improvement. But the concerns expressed by two USU students who asked questions at the debate reflected different priorities. Candidates were first asked to explain their policies and funding suggestions to help combat what USUSA has declared a “mental health crisis” in Utah. Weinholtz said he thought the best way to address the issue was to expand Medicaid. He said this would help Utahns with mental health problems combat those issues “on many different levels.” Herbert maintained that his administration made “significant strides” toward expanding resources for those who struggle with mental health, but insisted that those steps needed to be taken in a “fiscally responsible” way. Another concern brought up on behalf of USU students was the issue of whether Utah’s minimum wage can be considered a “livable wage.” Candidates were asked if they thought it was time to raise minimum wage in Utah. Weinholtz said he thought it was time to raise the state’s minimum wage, adding that he thought Utah had enough minimum wage jobs to begin with. What the state needs, he said, are careers that can support families. “When you don’t have a living wage, you suffer everywhere,” Weinholtz said. Herbert said he believes “the market will
make the determinations of the winners and the losers,” and that “incomes are moving up based on the market that’s taking place out there.” While both the issue of funding for combatting Utah’s mental health crisis and providing Utahns with a “livable” minimum wage were brought up by students, candidates’ responses tended to be geared toward families, not the student demographic. Nemelka said he thinks political rhetoric and policy might be geared more toward students if students would show more interest. “We’re not a huge voting pool,” Nemelka said. “We are if we would vote, but a lot of us don’t vote.” Nemelka said he felt that, although the issues discussed at the debate weren’t necessarily those most pertinent to students, the results of local elections have much more potential to directly affect students’ lives than do national elections. Yet, national elections are what get the most attention from students. USU students have demonstrated their ability to mobilize on behalf of local politics in the past. Utah State won the Campus Cup, an award for voter registration sponsored by the Lt. Governor’s office, in 2014. The cup has remained in the university’s possession for the last two years, but could be awarded to another school if enough USU students fail to participate when the time comes to vote again this year. Nemelka said he thinks USU can win the cup again. “There’s 20,000 students up here,” Nemelka said, “and if we were to move in a general direction and try to vote for something, we could have such a drastic and dramatic impact on local politics.” Utah’s gubernatorial elections will take place on November 8.

have very serious real world consequences.” While Zaqistan is not a country that is recognized by other states, the manufacture of official government-looking forms and passports is meant to raise questions about the difference between the United States and Zaqistan that will raise red flags about legitimacy, he said. The tourism exhibit was a way to bring others to the desert to see the micro-nation as well as simulate a developing nation with little-to-no natural resources in need of a source of income. Landsberg also wanted to get people thinking about the political issues his art was trying to express. “I think art is incredibly powerful and can do a lot to start conversations like the ones that we’re having right now,” said Beth Shirley, a Ph.D. student in technical communications and rhetoric. “That wasn’t the sense that I got yesterday. I think it’s very easy for things like this for the art side of it to get lost in the conceptual side of it, for it to be too abstract for people to really get what’s going on.” Kettinger said he noticed a disconnection between the people there who were interested in the tourism aspect and the conceptual artwork, and the people like the other USU students who were interested in creating a dialogue about the social issues the art was presenting. One such social issue came to Landsberg unexpectedly as a result of his effort to create an authentic independent country. “I have received like hundreds of emails from Pakistanis who want to immigrate to Zaqistan and move their small businesses there, and move their families there,” he said. Schoessow found this idea dark and disturbing to hear during the fun and lighthearted event. “These are people that are willing to abandon their culture and their traditions and their home and family and everything that they’ve ever known,” he said. “They’re willing to take a gamble on going anywhere, because anywhere could possibly be better than going home, and I think that’s super heavy and worth considering thinking about.” These responses created a paradox within the project and its goals, Landsberg said, because Zaqistan implores people not to take things at face value, to question and scratch the surface at what is there. Then there are people who see it and believe it is real which requires him to explain this is a conceptual art piece, not a real country that can sustain human beings. Landsberg also described a situation regard-
ing a few friends who were born and raised in India and were given Zaqistani citizenship early in the nation’s history. They now hold refugee status, which makes Zaqistan the only place they hold citizenship to. “I think that reveals how dark and sad that is,” Landsberg said, “that Zaqistan is like this weirdo project out in the middle of the desert is the only entity that will recognize these people as citizens anywhere.” Schoessow saw this situation as a potential catalyst for real discussion about foreign policies and immigration. He would like to see the refugees given a voice through this project to make a political statement. In the future, Landsberg said he hopes to get more people like the USU students involved with Zaqistan and talking about these issues. One day he’d like to see Zaqistan change from a quirky weird art piece in the middle of the desert to a deep political statement. “It all seemed to come back to people and place and sort of the connection that folks could establish with nature and their natural surroundings that folks seemed to appreciate,” Schoessow said, “and when you throw down an arbitrary like political boundary and declare an independent republic in the middle of the dessert, that just makes it that much better.” — mira.skye.lorenc@aggiemail.usu.edu @lormialor

Debate is not our national pastime By LOGAN JONES SPORTS CONTENT MANAGER

The national debate Monday was a joke.
Trump did his thing, pulling his nonsensical
talking points from some randomly generated word cloud of political incorrectness and
incredulity. Hillary pulled nine muscles in her
face from smirking so hard, knowing that sort of thing resonates with all of us millennial
Jim-from-“The Office” fans (even if Mark-Paul Gosselaar did it first in “Saved by the Bell”).
Both talked about problems. Neither discussed solutions. One might say that in a bowl of 300 million skittles, we probably could’ve picked two that tasted a little better.
Nothing happened Monday that filled me

ingly negative thoughts away from the Mad Maxian hellscape we’ll almost certainly be
living in by 2020, I managed to tear myself
away from these two unnaturally detestable caricatures and instead found myself in the middle of something better. Something beautiful, even.
A tragic weekend in sports that had already
seen moving tributes to the grandaddy of pro golf Arnold Palmer and the tragic passing of
24-year-old MLB pitcher Jose Fernandez came to a poignant climax Monday, as an emotional Marlins squad sported their lost teammate’s name and number on every jersey. While

an honesty, a unity, an understanding that their lost friend was perhaps not so distant.
It was one of those goosebump-filled

moment of both reflection and quiet gratitude. Despite how things may appear this time of year, debate is not our national pastime —
that’s baseball’s title, and this week baseball did more to restore faith in the direction we’re all headed than anything else ever could have.

topic of discussion was the Governor’s decision ACA. This is a very interesting topic to discuss, as the Governor and the ultra-conservative
state legislature have essentially wasted Utah taxpayer money. Weinholtz came out hard on
this issue, declaring the governor’s decision to
be “morally bankrupt.” They decided not to use the money that already came out of federal
taxes; money that could have been used for
insuring thousands of struggling Utahns. He
stated that Utah decided to not take the money ($1.8 billion) because it came from President Obama’s plan. This is something Weinholtz
rightly brought up during the debate--putting

called out Herbert and the Republicans’ lack of being in touch with middle class and poor
people, and proclaimed that he will govern
Utah in a way that works for everyone, not just the well-off. With little previous debate
experience, Mike Weinholtz came out on the

cherish the sweetest reflection that your vote

possess around election time. Number one, not caring enough to seek out unbiased
education, and number two, not taking the time to go out and vote. Yesterday here at
Utah State we had the privilege of having the Gubernatorial debate held at our very own Caine Performance Hall where we heard
Governor Gary Herbert and his opponent Mike Weinholtz discuss their views on how to make Utah a better place. As this was my first
opportunity to attend such an event I went in taking away all prior bias and used this
experience to truly learn up on our two
candidates and figure out whom I will be
voting to be our wonderful state’s governor for the next four years. Both candidates provided their input on what needs to be done but for
me one stood out far more than the other. For starters I was greatly disappointed that Mike Weinholtz opened the debate with bashing
with voting for him. On the other hand
Herbert did provide statistics and facts that have shown what improvements have been
made since he has been Governor and laid out his plans for the future. The focus he has had the past seven years has been to improve our economy first because when you have a well oiled economy a ripple effect happens and
subsequently there are more jobs available,
schools will have more funding, and there will be less government debt. This has been
proven to work already in Utah as graduation rates have gone up 10% as a whole and
minority graduation rates are up 7%. Weinholtz brought up every hole and everything
that needs fixed within our state and did not provide clear solutions. Of course there is
always need to improve. No one is perfect and nothing is ever going to be 100%, but when 80% of Utahns are happy with the direction the state is headed you cannot argue the
current system is broken. If the current trends keep up for the next four years then graduation rates will be up even higher, and unemployment will drop below the already low
3.7% that is held here in Utah. The more we
can fix the economy around us the happier we will be as Utah citizens.
