The Beer Issue

ISSUE NO. 21 VOL. 53

Cheryl Schrader’s salary Wright State and bonus package revealed facing lawsuit Leah Kelley Kelley.90@wright.edu Editor-in-Chief Wright State president-elect Cheryl Schrader’s benefits package recently came to light after Dayton Daily News obtained a copy of her contract from the university.

Her base pay will be $425,000, with several additional payments such as: • $54,000 in deferred compensation of her first year.

• $42,500 to relocate from Rolla, Missouri.

• $36,000 annually for housing.

• $12,000 allowance for her vehicle, insurance, as well as gas.

• $10,000 for a country club membership.

With the additional benefits, her yearly compensation from Wright State could total $680,000 or more, which is nearly double what she makes at Missouri S&T where she serves as Chancellor.

The university will also

provide digital items like computers, phones and tablets.

Schrader was announced as president-designate on March 6 in the Student Union.

“We must nurture an ecosystem that allows creativity and innovation to thrive among all of our students, scholars, researchers and employees,” Schrader said in her

acceptance speech on March 6.

“Only through creative thinking and the convergence of ideas will we be able to address the critical issues of our time as well as prepare the coming generations for the issues they will face in the future.”

Schrader will begin work as president on July 1.

Wright State hires new Diversity Officer Sarah Cavender News Writer Cavender.8@wright.edu Matthew Boaz, previously the director of equity and inclusion, accepted the position of Chief Diversity Officer last month.

Boaz is a nationally recognized leader who speaks about inclusion and diversity in workplaces and in schools.

He was also a member in the

committee that coordinated the creation of Title IX policy, which is designed to address and prevent gender based harassment cases when they are reported. Boaz works extensively aiding in representing underrepresented students.

“I grew up as a kid who was different, I was a diversity statistic where I lived. And because of those things, I saw from a different perspective and had a unique perspective

of that viewpoint,” Boaz said.

As chief diversity officer, Boaz will continue to promote and work to create a cultural accepting campus. He hopes to expand diversity and improve trends that have changed or may have decreased over the years, in addition to the promotion of inclusion within the campus.

Boaz has worked at several other Ohio universities to promote equal opportunities for others.

“As I start this journey in this new position, I want to make sure people feel that way [inclusion] and if they don’t feel that way I’m going to do whatever it takes to improve that,” Boaz said.

Boaz has many ideas that he’s excited to start and be a part of on campus. The budget crisis creates problems with some of these ideas because there is a lack of staffing. He doesn’t have a team or staff to help take part in these new ideas.

As Boaz begins his transition into this role, he’s been listening to others and finding out what people think and feel. According to Boaz, his past three and a half years of being at the university have given him the opportunity to know how people feel already.

from presidential debate consultant

Kristin Baughman Baughman.25@wright.edu News Editor President and CEO of McCance Consulting Group, John McCance, is seeking $1 million in punitive damages from Wright State. The lawsuit also includes $150,000 regarding six other allegations, including wrongful termination, breach of contract, hostile work environment and infliction of emotional distress.

He referred to the university’s debate efforts as “incompetence” and an “epic gross buffoonery and carnival type atmosphere.”

McCance was involved in the planning of the presidential debate, which would have taken place on Sept. 26, 2016.

According to McCance, the Commission on Presidential Debate (CPD), notified WSU it was pulling the debate from the university, but offered WSU the chance to say it was withdrawing from hosting.

“This is absolutely the last resort for me, it’s not something I want to do,” McCance said in an interview with the Dayton Business Journal. “My career started at Wright State. When I was in Washington and I envisioned bringing the debate to the Dayton region, Wright State was the only place in my mind to bring it to.”

According to a WSU spokesperson, “Consistent with its long established practice, Wright State University does not comment on pending litigation,” in response to the lawsuit.

WSU’s legal representation has filed a motion to dismiss and alleges “lack of subject matter jurisdiction,” according to the Dayton Business Journal.

McCance states in the lawsuit he began preparing the application for the debate in 2014, and WSU landed the debate in 2015. McCance was to work with Robert Sweeney, the Executive Vice President for Planning, to plan the debate. The lawsuit states disagreements arose regarding a security fencing contract and communication between the school and commission.

McCance was named “advisor to the president for presidential debate,” in 2015, and was to be paid $108,000 in the oneyear project, according to an employment contract included in the lawsuit. McCance was terminated July 21, shortly after the school pulled out of the debate.

“Between July 5 and July 18, 2016, McCance had numerous telephone communications with various members of the CPD,” states the lawsuit. “It became apparent to McCance that the CPD had lost all confidence in WSU to be able to host a presidential debate. On Monday July 18, 2016, WSU was contacted by CPD that CPD was in fact pulling the debate from WSU. In a move to allow WSU to save face, the CPD suggested WSU to withdraw before the CPD made the announcement.”

In the interview with Dayton Business Journal, McCance said the $11 million cost for the debate was “fabricated.” He said the cost was wrongly blamed on him, and has led to a struggle in finding local work.

The lawsuit alleges the breach of a one-year contract, because the withdrawal from the debate ended the contract five months early.

“McCance (alleges) that it was the incompetence of certain WSU staff, as well as the epic gross buffoonery and carnival type atmosphere on the main campus with all the infighting and lack of support and finger pointing that led the CPD to eventually decide not to allow WSU to host a presidential debate,” states the suit.

“I can speak with a thousand percent certainty that if the new president of the university is interested in applying for a debate, that Wright State University will be favorably looked upon and have equal consideration as any other school applying,” McCance said.

Moon Juice is all the rage…but what is it exactly?

Leah Kelley Editor-in-Chief Kelley.90@wright.edu

Let’s start with a quick definition straight from the Moon Juice’s website: “Moon juice is the resource for plant-sourced alchemy to nourish and elevate body, beauty and consciousness. We celebrate the unadulterated, exquisite flavors and healing force of raw vegetables, fruits, petals, herbs, roots, nuts and seaweeds as daily nourishment, beauty tools and high-powered natural remedies.”

Raw, natural, unadulterated—we can get behind that! Moon Juice is made of adaptogens, which are are a class of herbs, mushrooms and minerals that help protect the body from stress-induced dysfunction. It’s also made of super herbs, which Moon Juice defines as, “potent, complex and targeted herbs that support and nourish the body in a variety of ways.”

Starbucks reveals new pastel spring cups Leah Kelley Editor-in-Chief Kelley.90@wright.edu If you’re American, then you remember the Starbucks Red Cup Controversy of 2015. Well, Starbucks is releasing a new kind of cup—and we doubt there could be any controversy here.

The new cups arrive on March 16 in the United States and Canada, but will be available for a limited time only. The cups come in three pastel colors— blue, yellow and green—with white dots and black doodles.

So the powder, or dust as it’s technically called, is concentrated—really concentrated. The effects of ingesting the Moon Juice dust can be felt up to 1520 minutes post-consumption, but long-term effects will be seen within two to three weeks.

Moon Juice founder, Amanda Bacon, recommends incorporating the dusts into everyday drinks and dishes, like a smoothie, iced coffee, oatmeal, or even cake mix. Each dust has its own unique flavor, which you should take into account before dumping it in a bowl of batter.

Brain Dust – bitter Beauty Dust – berry Sex Dust – smoky and chocolately Spirit Dust – medicinal berry Power Dust – neutral Dream Dust – apple/sweet There’s even a Moon Juice cookbook, where each dust is proven to mix perfectly with real dishes to boost your health and immunity.

Wright State opposes textbook price cap Sarah Cavender News Writer Cavender.8@wright.edu

Early this year, Governor Kasich released his proposal for the budget plan of 2018-2019. The plan proposed cuts, increases and recommendations for different sectors of the state.

In education there is another tuition freeze on all public universities, and also the proposal to help cut the cost of textbooks. The goal is to provide students with textbooks at a lower cost.

Kasich’s committee agreed on an average cost students pay, around $300, and the university pays the rest. The university would pay for the cost of other materials, such as lab fees.

Most public universities in Ohio have opposed this bill along

with many legislators.

Student Government Associations are backing the universities opposition, Wright State administration and SGA are included.

SGA president Lukas Wenrick stated, “While textbooks costing only $300 per year for students may appear to be a cost-saver for students, in reality this would force our university to pay an additional $5-10 million to cover the price of our textbooks and would force cuts in student success areas of the university to cover these new costs.”

The cost of covering the textbook and class materials for thousands of students would mean the possibility of programs cut such as health clinics within universities, veteran’s center or student success centers.

Associate Vice President for Public Affairs,

Bob Hickey, has been working closely with university administration, legislators and SGA since the budget plan was released. “If we can work out better relationships for books than students can as individuals,” Hickey said, “if universities can help change that [the prices], I think we should.”

As the bill passes through its process legislators will be able to revise and add to the bill.

While this is a portion of the students money, the university has to pick up the rest of the cost for 13,000 students. If this bill does pass later this year, the resources needed to apply the governor’s budget plan could mean cuts to programs that students utilize.

Student Spotlight: Eva Lewis Leah Daugherty Contributing Writer Lndaugherty@gmail. com Art work is as diverse as the people who create and enjoy it, and Wright State University’s art students are no exception. Eva Lewis, a senior Fine Arts major with a concentration in painting and a minor in art history, found an interest in art during high school.

“Going into college, I wanted to pursue it more of something I wanted to do for fun, I wanted to be a high school teacher.

But I fell in love with the concepts and ideas that linger within art and I decided I wanted to engage in art much more heavily in hopes of becoming a good artist.

Inspired more by the act of painting and drawing, Eva says that she doesn’t aim for a narrative in her work.

“There is so much to explore in art, so many concepts and visuals that are worthy of executing.

Rendering what I see in front of me and discovering different elements is what excites me the most.”

Eva believes that art has taken on several roles in society; specifically, entertainment, advertisement, and a source of emotional connection. She sees her career in art as a way of expanding knowledge and exploring concepts that she has taken an interest in, which she claims “is no different than a doctor or scientist taking interest in their field.”

Eva says she holds on to the negative critiques of her artwork more than the positive, but that it’s a driving force for her.

“I remember a professor told me once that I did not understand color, which is good. It pushed me so hard.”

When asked why she chose Wright State University, she gives an honest response; “At first, it was because it’s close to home, but the art program here is so wonderful and I feel extremely fortunate that I ended up here.”

Eva is graduating this spring and hopes to become a university professor where she can connect with other eager students like her professors have with her.

Dayton mayor to run unopposed Kristin Baughman News Editor

Baughman.25@wright.edu

Dayton mayor Nan Whaley will re-run unopposed this year, making it the first uncontested race in Dayton history.

In response to this, Eric Devin Bailey submitted a petition to join the race on March 3, only 20 minutes prior to the filing deadline.

Bailey’s petition contained 722 signatures, but only 269 were valid. According to Steve Harsman, deputy director of the Montgomery County Board of Elections, this is short of the 500 needed to be placed on the ballot.

One hundred of the signatures were invalid, because the people who signed were not electors, according to the board of elections report. Around 178 signatures were from people living outside of Dayton, and 156 signatures did not match signatures on record.

Bailey’s petition was deemed invalid by the board on Monday, March 6.

Whaley ran the city’s

most expensive campaign while running for her first term.

“I think running unopposed is a reflection of the hard work she’s done as mayor and the two terms she served as a city commissioner and reflects the progress the city has made over the past four years,” said Mark Owens, chair of the Montgomery County Democratic Party.

According to Harsman, Dayton will be not having a primary election in May, which will save the city about $80,000 to $100,000.

Whaley told Dayton Daily News that she is considering running for governor, but stressed her priority and focus on her upcoming campaign for mayor.

E-mail etiquette every college student should embrace Angel Lane Features Writer Lane.91@wright.edu Email is an important communication tool for college students, and often important people create their first impression of someone through an email. Successful people use proper email etiquette, and this is one reason why it is so important to treat every email professionally. For those who treat every email like it is a text message to a friend, these tips are for you.

These tips will move beyond the things drilled into our heads such as proofreading for proper spelling, punctuation or grammar—but these items are still incredibly important as well.

Start with the subject line. Make it relevant and straight to the point so that the person on the receiving end knows they need to open it and that it is not spam. If this is a new conversation or topic with someone previously spoken to, do not simply reply to an old email to start the new topic, create a new one with a fitting subject line.

Be formal in your greeting. A quick hello and self-introduction is important to make a good impression and en-

courage the recipient to read further—but keep it brief and to the point.

It’s a good idea to write the entire message before typing in the recipient email address.

This will first help ensure that you are sending your message to the proper person, and also prevent early sending.

Always double-check the name in the recipient box.

Be professional.

Whether it is a professor or a possible job opportunity, how you speak to someone has a lasting effect on how they see you. Unless you are personally very friendly with someone, it’s best to leave out jokes and sarcasm. Type in normal fonts and use no crazy colors or formatting.

Try reading your email out loud before sending to hear for yourself the type of tone you’ve written in.

www.theguardianonline.com

Lastly, don’t use that embarrassing email address you created when you were 10 to sign up for Neopets. Create an email that tells who you are and sounds professional.

Always end an email with a thanks and a signature. Everyone likes to hear gratitude from someone else, so a simple thank you can make a huge difference in the response you receive.

Signing your name at the end gives not only an identification method to the recipient, but also makes it more personal while still being formal and proper. Proofread one more time, take a deep breath and press send!

WSU student claims rushing Trump Here’s how to order on stage reduced black violence the new two-toned Sarah Cavender News Writer Cavender.8@wright.edu

In 2016, Thomas DiMassimo rushed the stage while Donald Trump was speaking at a rally. He was quickly tackled and arrested by federal authorities at the Dayton airport.

One year later, DiMassimo is now living in Georgia working an assortment of jobs which were not identified. He’s also looking for a church to fit his ideas of Christianity.

DiMassimo was arrested by Secret Service at the Trump rally and then charged by Dayton Police. His charges later were filed into a federal court.

He was released on bond on the condition that he was not to possess a weapon during this time. He was arrested again in early July for shooting at a gun range.

DiMassimo was jailed for three days and then put on electronic home arrest.

Last July DiMassimo was charged and pleaded guilty for “entering a restricted area where a person protected by the Secret Service was temporarily visiting without lawful authority,” according to Dayton Daily News. DiMassimo was fined $250 and put on a year of probation, but was terminated later last year in November.

DiMassimo did not regret what he did and

commented to Dayton Daily News that he “couldn’t care less.”

He disputed that his rushing the stage made a difference, saying there was less violence toward black people at Trump rallies after the Dayton

incident. He insisted to Dayton Daily that he had no intention of hurting Trump but wanted to make a statement and make people think that he could do something.

Starbucks drink Leah Kelley Editor-in-Chief Kelley.90@wright.edu

Remember when the Pink Drink swept the universe last summer? (Strawberry Acai and coconut milk.) It’s still one of our favorites, but when we saw this new drink from @dailyfoodfeed, we were intrigued. Okay, we were more than intrigued—we were enchanted.

The two-tone Starbucks drink is a combo of our favorite Pink Drink and matcha. (Two of our all-time favorite things in the world.) Here’s how you order it: 3 parts strawberry acai refresher with coconut milk.

1 part matcha coconut milk on the rocks.

OPINION: How to make new friends when you leave college and move away Leah Kelley Editor-in-Chief Kelley.90@wright.edu 1. Find a place you like and become a regular.

So there’s this guy at my favorite coffee shop who is always there.

I had this game with myself where I’d sneak a photo of him every time he was there and send it to my dad to prove that THIS GUY NEVER LEFT THE COFFEE SHOP. My dad’s responses ranged

from, “There he is! You weren’t kidding!” to “Do you think he secretly lives there?” While I don’t have an answer to whether or not this man is homeless, I do know one thing: he knows everybody. Like, the baristas know him, the other regulars know him, everyone knows him. If you’re in a new place and feeling lonely, find a spot (coffee shop, cafe, bar, etc) where you feel at home and then hit it up a couple times a week.

You’ll start to recognize faces, and maybe even

form relationships with the other people who hang out there too.

2. Join a club.

Yeah, yeah, yeah…I know you’re not in college anymore and your Photography Club days are way behind you… but clubs are alive and well, especially in bigger cities. Whether they’re social clubs, sports clubs, religious clubs, you name it! There are ways to join an organization that meets regularly, giving you the ability to form relationships with other

members. It might take some google searching, but it will be well worth your time.

3. Volunteer.

Pick a great charity and then give it your all.

Not only will you be giving back to the community, but you’ll be forming relationships with other volunteers. There’s no better way to make friends than by serving others, after all. Give it a shot!

4. Eat out with your colleagues.

Don’t be scared to invite your co-workers out to lunch! You spend several hours every day (years over the course of your life) with these people, so why not try to get to know them better? Don’t be scared off by any little differences you might spot at the beginning. There might be someone in your office who is a 100 percent match for friendship material, but you’d never know unless you tried to get to know them.

5. Take a class.

Interesting in learning how to decorate cakes or blow glass?

Other people who are curious and creative like you will be there, which makes it a perfect way to meet new friends. Find a class that’s a couple weeks long so you have the opportunity to get to know them. At the end of the classes, see if anyone wants to go out to get a drink.

The Beer Issue

Dayton’s Not Dead: Lock 27 brews passion with their beer Adam Ramsey Features Editor Ramsey.55@wright.edu Most people don’t love their job, but you can’t say that about WSU alumnus Steve Barnhart, owner of Lock 27 Brewing at 1035 South Main St. in Centerville. After leaving the corporate world, Barnhart pursued his passion: beer.

“We founded and opened June of 2013. Before that, I worked in corporate development for NCR,” Barnhart said. “NCR left town, I started looking for new opportunities and wanted to do something more local: something that was more in line with my heart than what I was doing at the time.”

After pursuing beer as a hobby since the 90s, once the pace changed, Barnhart took the opportunity to open Lock 27, a gastropub with as much emphasis on food as on its beers.

Lock 27 draws its name from the rich history of the Erie Canal, which plays a large part in Dayton’s own history. The name references one of the recreation locks from the canal in Miamisburg.

“People have a tendency to pull back to flight as if that’s the only thing that has happened in Dayton,” Barnhart said. “For me, I just wanted to do something different. We wanted to draw on the long history of the canal, from the 1800’s to the 1900’s and the flood in 1913.”

Barnhart likes to keep things small, especially when it comes to beer making, because to him, small means quality. The same goes for keeping things creative.

“We follow our hearts a lot. I don’t want to think about beer the same way as anyone else does, because I think that’s how you get ‘big beer,’” Barnhart said.

“That’s when you start thinking like a corporation.

We would rather make something authentic and true instead of making a lot of something that is not.”

Lock 27 has brews a variety of beers on a regular basis and rotates as new ideas are born. For those that are looking to experiment with Lock 27, he recommends drinking a Mouthbreather IPA, but states that his selection should cover a variety of tastes.

“At the end of the day, we’re going to find something you like,” Barnhart said. “We’re trying not to be exclusionary, where it’s only hoppy beers or sour beers. We want to brew things up and down, so that

way if you like beer at all, you will find something you like here.”

From a food perspective, Barnhart recommends the chicken wings, a crowd favorite, which are dry rubbed, smoked and then flash fried.

Currently Lock 27 is in the process of opening a new location in downtown Dayton, right outside Fifth Third Field in the Delco Building. The second location is expected to be opened in late May or early June.

Deaf World makes a splash at WSU Kelsey Powell Staff Writer Powell.210@wright.edu Deaf World was held at the Student Union Atrium on March, 10 from 12 p.m. to 2 p.m.

The event was open to the public whether they were hearing, hard of hearing or deaf.

American Sign Language (ASL) students were very much encouraged to go for a learning experience and to learn more about the deaf community and how they communicate.

People were told what tables to go to depended on their level and knowledge of ASL. Then everybody was given ear plugs to really experience what the deaf go through on a daily basis.

“I was intimidated when I was told that in order to be at the event I had to put in ear plugs, but at

the same time I understood it. After all, the main purpose was to really let hearing people see how the deaf community had to deal with life in a predominately hearing world,” Jennifer Franer, senior, mass communication major said.

The public could visit all tables, answer questions and have conversations and then get stamps for visiting the table.

“I really like how each table was set up and how each table had a different theme, it really helped in aiding how the conversation went,” Franer said.

As students, teachers and tutors gathered silent conversations were flourishing but anyone was to talk or speak they would be put in a deaf jail they had set up.

It was a great and enjoyable learning process for anyone interested in ASL and the deaf community.

“Deaf World was a great opportunity for students to get the practice they needed singing in real world situations,” Franer said.

Dayton’s Not Dead: Drink beer made like it was in the 1850s at Carillon Brewing Company Adam Ramsey Features Editor Ramsey.55@wright.edu Beer has been made for a very long time, even here in Dayton. With beer being as important as it is to the area, Dayton History and Carillon Park created Carillon Brewing Company, a brewery making beer just like they did in the 1850s.

Whereas most breweries have an unlimited selection of ingredients and access to modern technology to make their beers, Carillon Brewing Company keeps their brewing operation as true to history as possible.

“In August of 2014, we opened this facility to replicate those low tech industrial brewing operations,” Kyle Spears, head brewer, said. “We created this fireplace with four different fireboxes in it. We use hardwood charcoal and firewood to heat our kettles. We use open copper kettles, which is different from a modern brewery where they use closed stainless steel to produce their beer.”

The resulting beer tastes like it did in the 1850s, which varies from what we know to be beer today.

This is because of the open kettles, which exposes the beer to bacteria and wild yeast floating in the air.

“All those things combined, if it gets into the beer during the fermentation, it can render the beer somewhat tart. Lactobacillus is the same thing that makes sourdough bread sour, yogurt, and things like that. When we go through the brewing process, if we let the beer age long enough, it will have a sour character too it.”

Recently, after some experimentation with other historically accurate ingredients, Carillon has made non-sour beers that are authentic to the 1850s, now offering more house-brewed drinks that vary in tastes.

In addition to serving old-style beer, Carillon Brewing Company also serves modern beer, and offers tastings and flights of beer so that customers can taste the differences between the two.

Their flagship beers are the Coriander Ale and the Porter. Carillon Brewing Company also serves liquor and homemade, non-alcoholic sodas. All of their drinks can be accompanied with sandwiches, fish, and other entrees.

Students can find more information about Carillon Park and the brewery, as well as news about events and programs at carillonbrewingco.org.

Ohio welcomes new beer themed hotel Sarah Cavender News Writer Cavender.8@wright.edu

BrewDog, a Scotland based brewery, has launched a crowdfunding to help create the DogHouse, the world’s first craft beer hotel.

BrewDog launched its first craft brewery in Columbus, Ohio.

The fund was launched in early March and can be found on Indiegogo. Those who donate more than $150 will receive a one night stay for two in one of the beer themed rooms.

Donations of $30,000 or more will have the whole hotel reserved to themselves for one night.

The special offer would include all 50 of the planned rooms along with access to all facilities.

The $7.3 million hotel will feature rooms that have beer fridges, a Beer Spa featuring beer based treatments and an oak barrel hot tub filled with BrewDogs Punk IPA. The meals served at the hotel will be craft beer infused.

Since its funding launch, there has been an immense amount of support. The company has since reached its $75,000 goal, with around $125,000 from 815 backers.

The company also wants to open a second building near the hotel. A sour beer brewery which the crowdfunding includes.

The DogHouse is set to open September 2018 in Columbus.

The company wants to open another location in Scotland, but the plans were put on hold because of a disagreement with Aberdeenshire Council over the value of land, according to Business Insider.

Top pubs and bars in the area for college students Angel Lane Lane.91@wright.edu Features Writer St. Patrick’s Day is just around the corner, and many college students are searching for a place to gather and have a good time. Here is a list of some of the best bars, pubs, breweries and grills in the Dayton area where college students can make the most of a night.

For those who stay close to the Wright State campus, many know the two most popular options.

WO Wrights Grill and Pub on Colonel Glenn offers Karaoke, Live bands, pool and darts. They also offer Wright Patt lunch discounts.

Tuty’s Bar and Grill on Colonel Glenn is a family owned sports bar offering pizzas, burgers and currently green beer pitchers for just five bucks!

Another near campus location is The Wandering Griffin Brewery and Pub. Their website announced that they will be the first independently owned microbrewery in Beavercreek. With perks such as a coffee bar, incredible food, open mic nights and an event room for private parties, this is a must-know location for students. The Wandering Griffin is located on Presidential Drive.

With a five-star rating on Yelp, Pies and Pints is next on our list. Pizza and beer—what more could you wish for? The extensive beer menu is available online at piesandpints.net. Pies and Pints is located at The Greene in Beavercreek.

For those willing to travel a bit further, we move

towards the University of Dayton. Rated number 22 in the Top 25 College Bars in America and with an exclusive drink known as “The Wall” is Timothy’s Bar and Grill on Brown Street.

Another great student hangout is The Fieldhouse sports bar by UD with sports, pizza, and a jukebox for great music. Our last pick near UD is Flanagan’s Pub. It is great for St. Patrick’s Day because it is Irish themed and family owned.

The last pick is a bit further from campuses, but it’s also one you don’t want to miss out on. Dublin Pub was voted the number one bar in Dayton at the Dayton Daily News Reader’s Choice Awards. They will be hosting their 19th annual St. Patrick’s Day celebration on St. Patrick’s Day and the first 100 people in line will receive a free t-shirt. There will be a photo booth, live music, dancing, food and more. Dublin Pub is located in the Oregon District among many other bars worth checking out including The Trolley Stop and The Oregon Express.

The official synopsis for Coco reads: “Despite his family’s baffling generations-old ban on music, Miguel (voice of newcomer Anthony Gonzalez) dreams of becoming an accomplished musician like his idol, Ernesto de la Cruz (voice of Benjamin Bratt). Desperate to prove his talent, Miguel finds himself in the stunning and colorful Land of the Dead following a mysterious chain of events.

Along the way, he meets charming trickster Hector (voice of Gael García Bernal), and together, they set off on an extraordinary journey to unlock the real story behind Miguel’s family history. Character actress Renée Victor also joins the cast as Abuelita, Miguel’s grandmother.”

Bracketology Breakdown

Sutherland.21@wright.edu

March Madness is back in full effect as 68 teams enter the men’s NCAA Tournament with the hopes of being the last team standing, to cement their legacy as champions of the 2017 season. The 19 teams in this year’s tournament are separated in these four regions of the bracket.

EAST REGION The defending champion, Villanova Wildcats, enter the tournament as the number one seed in the East looking to secure a second straight national title following their Big East Tournament, championship over the weekend.

Some of the Wildcats toughest competition in the region will come from Atlantic Coast Conference schools, as ninth seeded, Virginia Tech, fifth seeded Virginia, and two seeded Duke could all stand in Villanova’s way.

Other notable teams in the region are colle-

giate basketball powerhouse Florida as the fourth seed along with eighth seeded Wisconsin and third seed Baylor.

WEST REGION Gonzaga enters this years tournament as the number one seed for the second time in school history. The Bulldogs will go up against 16 seeded San Diego State holding on to the best record in college basketball, 32-1.

Gonzaga’s biggest competition from the Western Athletic Conference, Saint Mary’s, will also be in the west region as the seventh seed.

Eighth seeded, Northwestern is in the NCAA tournament for the first time, 14 seed Florida Gulf Coast made it to the Sweet Sixteen as a 15th seed in 2013, along with Arizona, Notre Dame and West Virginia are all teams to look out for in the west region.

MIDWEST REGION Senior guard Frank Mason III leads Kansas into the Midwest region

as the first seed in this year’s tournament.

If Kansas wants to come out of the Midwest and make it to the Final Four they will have to go through the likes of number two seed Louisville and possibly fifth seeded Iowa State, who Kansas has lost to once previously in the season.

Other competitors in the region are ninth seeded Michigan State, three seeded Oregon and seventh seeded Michigan, who were involved in a plane incident early last week but rallied from the scare to win the Big Ten championship.

SOUTH REGION The University of North Carolina rounds out the final, and arguably toughest region, in the NCAA tournament as the Tar Heels are the number one seed. In order to get to a final four and possibly back to the NCAA championship where they were a few seconds away from a championship before Villanova broke their hearts on a last second buzzer beater, UNC will have to get through

Softball continues to struggle Cameron Summers Sports Editor

Summers. 43@wright.edu

Wright State’s softball team (3-13) has struggled for the beginning portion of the season.

The Lady Raiders traveled to Louisville, Ken. to take on the Ohio University Bobcats Sunday, March 12. WSU came up short in a 6-14 loss against the Bobcats.

After one inning of play the score was 4-5

with the Bobcats on top and they never looked back scoring another seven runs in the third inning. Three fielding errors by the Lady Raiders was one of the factors of the loss as two of the runs given up were due to errors.

Alexis Mayle went 2-3 in the game with one RBI in the loss and Lauren Deitrick pitched 3.2 innings, gave up no earned runs and only

gave up one hit.

The Lady Raiders are looking to turn things around and get off a four-game losing streak.

Their next game is Tuesday, March 22 against the University of Dayton on the road. After that the first home game of the season is Wednesday, March 22 at 6 p.m. also against the Dayton Flyers.

tough competition.

Freshman sensation, Lonzo Ball, will lead third seeded UCLA against 14th seeded Kent State. If star studded Kentucky beats, Horizon League champion Northern Kentucky, the Wildcats will face either the Wichita State Shockers, or the University of Dayton Flyers.

Butler will begin

their tournament run in the south region as the fourth seed and the University of Cincinnati will start off as the sixth seed.

Middle Tennessee who upset Michigan State as a 15th seed last year will start off at a higher position as the 12th seed this year.

This year you can have the opportunity to pick and choose how

the madness will unfold this year through The Guardians Bracket Challenge on ESPN. To compete log into ESPN through an ESPN profile or Facebook and fill out a bracket in the Tournament Challenge. Once the bracket is complete enter it into The Guardian Bracket, to compete for a $20 gift card.

Sutherland.21@wright.edu

With the WNIT bracket set, Wright State women’s basketball team (24-8) are set to host Central Michigan (23-8) at the Nutter Center on Thursday, at a soon to be announced time.

Wright State will enter the Women’s National Invitation Tournament for the fourth time in four years following tournament appearances in 2011 and 2012, where the Raiders advanced to the second round in both years, 2015 and 2016.

The Raiders just missed the opportunity to go to their first NCAA Tournament since 2014.

After beating UIC in the quarterfinals of the Horizon League Tourna-

ment, Wright State fell to Detroit Mercy by 19 in the semifinals.

Now the Raiders will go on to face a Central Michigan team who they last played, and lost to, in December, 2011, during the Wright State Invitational.

For CMU, this WNIT birth is the fifth in the Chippewa’s history since 2011. Central Michigan qualified for the tournament by winning the regular season Mid-American Conference title, but lost to Western Michigan by four in the MAC Tournament quarterfinal.

The Chippewa’s are led by sophomore guard, Presley Hudson, who leads the team in scoring and was also named First Team All-MAC. Senior Jewel Cotton

and sophomore Renya Frost, were named Third Team All-MAC while junior Tinara Moore won the Defensive Player of the Year award in the MAC conference averaging over two blocks a contest.

Wright State is led by junior guard Chelsea Welch, who named a First Team All-Horizon League player while leading the league in points. Junior Lexi Smith was named to the All-Tournament Team following the conclusion of the Horizon League Tournament and head coach Katrina Merriweather was named Coach of the Year in the Horizon League in her first season at the helm for the Lady Raiders.
