Fridays with Farley: mayor, military and more Charles Rankin
Washburn Review charles.rankin@washburn.edu
Washburn University President Jerry Farley opened the first Fridays with Farley of the semester talking about issues that affect the Washburn community at noon Sept. 8 in the Union Underground. Farley began his forum by discussing the importance of the upcoming Topeka mayoral election. He explained that this is the first local election in Topeka to take place in the month of November, as the Kansas legislature in 2015 voted to move them from spring to winter. “These elections are vitally important to students here at Washburn,” Farley said. Farley said further that the mayor serves on the Washburn Board of Regents, and additionally appoints three members. The university worked with many campus and
community entities to plan a forum where the candidates will be discussing issues specifically related to Washburn and its community. This forum will take place at 4 p.m. Sept. 26 in the Bradbury Thompson Alumni Center. Farley gave a few remarks about accomplishments of both candidates: Michelle De La Isla, a current Topeka councilperson for the 5th District, and Spencer Duncan, a local businessperson. Farley did not endorse any one candidate. “As you can imagine, I’m not going to reveal who I’m Photo by Charles Rankin going to vote for,” Farley President Farley spoke in the Union Underground during the first Friday with Farley of the semester.

Lessons and words from Candice Millard Julia Eilert
Contributor julia.eilert@washburn.edu
Washburn students gathered together for the annual iRead event at 7 p.m. Sept. 12 in White Concert Hall. This year’s presentation was given by Candice Millard, author of “The River of Doubt.” Millard is both an accomplished novelist and journalist, and has worked for National Geographic as an editor and writer. She earned her master’s degree in literature from Baylor University, and has pub-
lished three books, all of which focus on iconic historical figures and crucial events in their lives. “My favorite part is always the research,” said Millard. “There are always a million different stories that go with what I’m looking at.” All incoming freshmen were required to read “The River of Doubt” and attend the lecture as part of Washburn’s iRead program. The book focuses on the life of President Theodore Roosevelt. “I thought it was interesting,” said Andrew Reyn-
olds, freshman forensics investigation major. “I learned quite a bit about Teddy and the different side of his life that I never knew existed. It’s also nice to see who’s behind the book for once.” Millard talked about her researching process and why the book was written and organized the way that it was. She explained the historical significance of the Amazon and its overall importance in Roosevelt’s life. “Try to imagine George Bush or Barack Obama, announcing that they’re going
to explore Mars on their own,” said Millard. “It’s just that extreme.” “The River of Doubt” is a New York Times Best Seller, and the book was a finalist for the Quill Awards. After Millard’s address to the crowd, students were given the chance to ask questions. In one of her answers, Millard explained why she made her own journey to the Amazon in researching for the book. “It was really difficult and it was really dangerous, but I couldn’t have written the book without it,” said Millard. “I needed to know not
only what it looked like, but what it smelled like, what it sounded like and what it felt like to be there. And the only way to know that is to go.” Students were able to have their copies of “The River of Doubt” or any of Millard’s other books signed after the presentation. “I hope you will remember this occasion,” said Washburn University Preident Jerry Farley. “And that you will remember this book for a long, long time.”

Washburn sororities welcome new members Allie Broockerd
Washburn Review alexandria.dellinger@washburn
Washburn’s sorority recruitment came to an end Sept. 9 as new members ran down the infamous hill in front of the Henderson. A time-honored tradition at Washburn, sorority members waited at the bottom of the hill to embrace their new sisters at the end of their run. The last day of recruitment, Bid Day is when potential new members receive bids to join chapters of local sororities before
they become official members. Every student who is eligible to participate in recruitment is considered for the selection process by Washburn’s three current sororities: Alpha Phi, Delta Gamma and Zeta Tau Alpha. The Friday before Bid Day, potential new members were given the chance to tour each of the three houses. Touring each house and getting to meet its members play a large role in new member’s decision as to which sorority they
would like to become a part of. “The best part of recruitment is getting to talk to other girls and getting to know them,” said Shayley Lust, sophomore member of Alpha Phi. In conjunction with fostering sisterhood and lifelong friendships, an integral part of being a member of a sorority is giving back to the community. After the meet and greet at each house, the three sororities explained their philanthropic purpose: Alpha Phi’s Cardiac
Care, Zeta Tau Alpha’s on Breast Cancer Education and Awareness and Delta Gamma’s Service For Sight. At the end of the day, potential new members took all of these factors into consideration and decided which sorority would be their best fit. Sept 10, potential pledges waited as they hoped to get into the sorority they chose. Both Alpha Phi and Delta Gamma both added 34 new members into their sorority, and Zeta Tau Alpha added 31. The new members participated in the run down
Henderson’s hill and were welcomed with open arms by their new sisters. Molly Manske, sophomore Delta Gamma member, recalled her own recruitment the previous year. “Recruitment was a nerve wracking process,” Manske said. “But running down the hill on Bid Day toward so many amazing DG’s that I was able to talk to during recruitment was amazing. I wouldn’t change it for the world.”

FARLEY continued from page 1 about a review of guidelines for campus sexual assault cases put in place during President Obama’s time in office. Marc Fried, University Counsel, said that it is too early to comment upon on the issue, as DeVos’s plans have not yet been taken through all the legislative channels necessary to become a policy. Fried did offer that the university’s current sexual assault policy is one that was established through input of
various diverse parties, and that if they need to review it in the future the university will receive input from all sides. Wade was satisfied with the university’s initial response to the issue. “I think that [the responses from the administration] were sufficient for right now,” Wade said. “But I hope that if these policies do change that the administration will be willing to work with students.” Another recent news

topic that the university addressed was President Trump’s latest statements on the Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals policy. Trump announced his plans to phase out DACA, also established under the Obama administration, over the next six months. This program allowed hundreds of thousands of minors who entered the U.S. illegally to receive deferred action from deportation and also become eligible for a work permit.
Eric Grospitch, vice president of Student Life, said that students who may be affected by this policy change are encouraged to meet at one of the various DACA specific law clinics offered by the Washburn University School of Law over the next few Fridays. The university also launched a resource page on its website for undocumented students on Friday. Other issues and topics discussed included the new Blitt art gallery that is ex-

WU stands with DACA recipients
President Trump recently called for an end of the Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals immigration program, a decision that has put the residency, education and careers of 800,000 young adults known as “Dreamers” at risk. Trump’s order has come with a call on Congress to follow through in completely terminating the program. To begin, we must first understand DACA and the narrative that Trump’s administration used to end this program. Through this explanation, we hope to make clear this is not a partisan issue, but one of empathy and
common sense. DACA, a program that began in 2012 under the Obama administration, grants protection from removal from the U.S. to people who came to the United States as undocumented child immigrants. The program protects these immigrants from being removed from the states while ensuring that they are contributing to American society. A requirement to file for DACA is that the applicant is in school or has graduated from high school, or is an honorably discharged veteran of the Armed Forces of the United States. DACA recipients are disqualified from financial government assistance programs like Medicaid or Obamacare, are required to pay taxes and must maintain a clean criminal record to keep their DACA protection. In short, they are granted the chance to earn a career in the U.S. on the merit of their
hard work alone, which is a testament to the American Dream if there ever was one. The most important part to keep in mind about DACA is that its impact has been vastly beneficial to America. A 2017 study by the Institute on Taxation and Economic Policy found that DACA recipients contribute $2 billion a year in taxes, and 75 percent of DACA permit holders are employed. The case that Trump and Attorney General Jeff Sessions have made against DACA is that it’s denying jobs to Americans while allowing illegal immigrants to take them. To date, there is no data that implies that DACA recipients have drastically affected American employment, simultaneously bolstered by the fact the job market is presently healthy. What’s more, we at the Review cannot stand behind a decision that would forcibly remove a fellow hardworking Ichabod from our campus or the surrounding community.
For that reason, we applaud Washburn University for sending out resources for Washburn DACA recipients. The university has made efforts to help these students with information and assistance on DACA added to their Diversity and Inclusion website. The Washburn Campus Activities Board is also hosting two events in the wake of this news: a Sept. 20 showing of Jesus Nebot’s film about immigration, “No Turning Back,” in the Memorial Union’s Washburn A/B room at 7 p.m. as well as a Sept. 21 seminar “Illegal Immigration: Challenges and Solutions,” with Jesus Nebot at 7 p.m. in Washburn A/B. We at the Review strongly encourage students to attend these events to learn more about immigration policy and discover what they can do to help Washburn DACA recipients.
We need healthy debates Emily Unruh Washburn Review emily.unruh@washburn.edu
Five years into my debate career, I still cringe and roll my eyes whenever I hear someone say: “You’re in debate? You must be great at arguing.” If you put opinionated college students on two opposing sides and tell them to convince a judge that their side is correct, expect an argument, a fight or an all out throw down. Few people understand what a true academic debate should look like. It’s easy to take the term “debate” and turn it into a verbal smackdown where both sides’
arguments quickly turn heated and personal. It’s becoming increasingly important in today’s social climate to understand how to have a healthy debate. Whether we are discussing politics or ice cream flavors, people being able to maturely discuss your differences in opinion in necessary to being an adult. Without the ability to disagree civilly, we run the risk of becoming isolated. Our instinct is to seek out people, activities and groups that mirror our own beliefs in an action media experts refer to as “selective exposure.” We deliberately avoid relatives with opposite political viewpoints at Thanksgiving, fearing an inevitable fight. What does it say about our society when we actively avoid
our relatives because we know that our disagreements could end in tears? It should not be this hard to have a polite, intelligent conversation when someone has an ideology different from our own. The ability to calmly converse is more important than ever, and I firmly believe that we are the generation to begin the conversation. I have been asked why I like debate, and what I have learned. I have the ability to look at all the facts, and when asked, elaborate my opinion in a polite, understandable manner based solely upon evidence and am able to entertain differing opinions. No mind has ever truly been changed through fighting. In debate, we are taught to use facts and logic in order to sway the judge. Being
rude, pushy and overbearing simply makes you look ignorant and unsure. Calm confidence often wins the round. It is vital that we adopt that same mindset in our own everyday disagreements. Listen to what someone has to say so you understand their stance on an issue, analyze what was said and calmly make your own counterpoint. We have to be able to disagree and still coexist. In a world where political disagreements could go nuclear, understanding how to have a levelheaded clash is an integral part in advancing beyond hate, beyond intolerance, toward cooperation, collaboration and compromise.

Q&A with Molly Steffes-Herman victim advocate Shi’erra Lolar
and I’ve been here ever since.
Washburn Review shierra.lolar@washburn.edu
Is this the first college campus you’ve worked on?
As a victim advocate, what kinds of things can you help students with? I can provide emontial support, information on reporting options for on and off campus students. I can provide information on victim rights and I can also give referrals to campus resources. I can also help students with events that don’t happen on Washburn’s campus. Where are you from? I am from Topeka. I was born and raised here. I went to Topeka West and then I went to K.U. for four years. I didn’t graduate. So I transferred to Washburn to major in Criminal Justice I graduated from Washburn
and pride and the students also feel that they belong here.
Yes. This is the first campus I’ve worked on. I have worked with community members who were a part of Washburn though. What is one thing that stands out about here from all of the other places that you’ve worked at? It is such an accepting community. In my experience, the faculty and workers actually like being here. The students I think have a sense of ownership
What is something new you’d like to implement on campus?
Washburn has a lot of things in place to help students one on one, but I think it would be cool to organize support groups. It’d be nice to have a support group for survivors of domestic violence or sexual assault. If there were a person who has experienced or seen a crime & they were scared to report it what would you tell them?
that I support their decision no matter what. I would help them to evaluate their options and show them what steps they’d have to take report it. I support any decision the student chooses to make. If anyone decides they need to talk to you, what is your contact info and where are you located? Right now, I’m in Benton Hall. My office is 408b. My phone number is 785-670-1415. I am here on campus Monday-Fri from 8-5 pm. Monday’s 8-12 are my actual open office hours but students are welcome to call, email, or come see me face to face. Whichever the student is comfortable with is ok with me.
First, I’d like to tell them
West Ridge celebrates Sephora grand opening Sabrina Rana Washburn Review sabrina.rana@washburn.edu
Westridge Mall welcomed hundreds of eager customers at 10 a.m. Sept. 8 for the Sephora grand opening within JC Penny. Sephora, a high-end cosmetics store, offers dozens of exclusive brands not commonly sold by other stores in the Topeka area, such as Tarte, Too Faced, Urban Decay and Nars. While this alone garnered much excitement within the Topeka area, Sephora offered the first 100 people who lined up at its grand opening a gift card of up to $100.

There are a wealth of opportunities here.”
Washburn lecturer speaks at Book Festival Emily Kobzar Washburn Review emily.kobzar@washburn.edu
The 2017 Kansas Book Festival featured Dennis Etzel Jr., Washburn lecturer, as one of its 20 guest speakers. Free to the public, the event was held at 10 a.m. Sept. 9 at the Kansas State Capitol Building. “Fast Food Sonnets,” Etzel’s new book of poetry, is about his coming of age story and what it was like working for a big fast food chain like McDonalds. “I’ve worked on them from 2003 through 2015, and many of them were published by literary maga-
zines around Kansas,” Etzel said. Etzel emphasized the importance of standing up for people who make minimum wage and the many problems which arise, such as race, social class and gender. This socio-economic struggle is something he wants to be able to connect with others about, whether they have personally shared in these experiences or not. “I am just thankful to be able to have a book about my experiences,” Etzel said. Etzel has been to the Kansas Book Festival in the past to see friends who had won the Kansas Notable Book Award and to explore what
other works of Kansas literature were being featured. Etzel said that he plans to continue attending the festival for the foreseeable future. Under the leadership of Mary Brownback, the festival has existed in Topeka since 2011. The proceeds generated from the festival are donated each year to various public schools and libraries across Kansas.

Horror film ‘It’ justifies societal fear of clowns Andrew Shermoen Washburn Review andrew.shermoen@washburn.edu
It’s no secret that Stephen King’s exceptional novels have had trouble being adapted into movies that match their quality. For many, the 1990 TV miniseries “It” featuring Tim Curry as Pennywise is unassailable, but it does not really hold up years later. I’m happy to report that the new “It” is much better than it’s television predecessor and is also one of the best King adaptations in years. The town of Derry, Maine has experienced a surge in missing children lately including Georgie Denbrough (Jackson Robert Scott) whose brother Bill (Jaeden Lieberher) has never stopped giving up the search for the past year. Suddenly Bill and several of his friends have begun to be terrorized by several odd figures representing their worst fears. Slowly, the children begin to realize their horrifying living nightmares are all connected to a terrifying entity who often takes the form of Pennywise the Dancing Clown (Bill Skarsgard). The kids must band together to find a way to stop Pennywise, before It gets to them first. “It” is, without a doubt, terrifying. It’s scares are

Floating omens: The red balloons that Pennywise carries in the film have become a striking image in the film’s marketing.

consistently well set-up and never land in the ever-obnoxious category of the fake scare. Without delving incredibly deep into horror film theory, a fake scare is when the audience anticipates something frightening but the item, person or image meant to scare them is a cheap, everyday thing. Like a protagonist popping out from behind a corner or something falls to the ground or a cat meows. These scares cheapen the moment to moment thrills of a horror movie and remove the feeling that there is any actual fear in the situation. All of the scares in “It” are real and intense. Each of It’s forms feel intensely person-
al and attuned to individual characters. Eddie whose overbearing mother has seen him develop an incredibly hypochondriac attitude, is absolutely terrified of the leper that It takes the form of that chases him as he walks home alone one day. It is one of the most terrifying horror creatures ever imagined, not only because of his favorite persona as the world’s creepiest clown, but because his ability to take on any form he wishes makes for an incredibly varied amount of scares in the film. That’s not even taking into account his power to create lifelike illusions and be almost anywhere he chooses. Which is why Bill Skars-
gard deserves a huge amount of praise for his performance as Pennywise. His cheery and maniacal disposition is the stuff of nightmares and every small sight of him makes you feel queasy. His wicked smile and twisted movements as well as Skarsgard unique vocal inflections for the character which vary from a high-pitched nails on chalkboard sound to a deep demonic grumble. The performance certainly isn’t so iconic that fans of the 90’s miniseries will forget Curry’s incredible performance, but Skarsgard’s is so unique and different from Curry that his job will certainly be career-defining. The other performances in the film are also fantastic.
Sophia Lillis plays the only major female character, Beverly, and is fantastic in the role. The movie sadly doesn’t allow her to really show off all her skills at their full potential but she is an absolute riot and Lillis gives her a tragic edge due to the everyday horrors Bev experiences at home. The other child actors are also tremendous with special praise for Finn Wolfhard as the crudely humorous Richie Tozier and Chosen Jacobs as Mike Hanlon, a young homeschooled African-American boy whose greatest fear is likely the most tragic of the children and his arc shows the most development in forming his heroic attitude. “It” is an exceptionally well made horror movie. The scares are earned, well-executed, and filled with horrifying nauseous imagery. The performances are great with Bill Skarsgard’s Pennywise earning incredibly high praise. The plot moves by the numbers and the final fight scene suffers from a high amount of predictability but is filled with enough horrifying images to keep you engaged and scared. Come and see: You’ll float too!

Expocentre holds third annual Topeka Comic Con Brooklyn Wiens Washburn Review brooklyn.wiens@washburn.edu
Thousands of avid cosplayers and fans came together Sept. 9 and 10 for the 3rd annual Topeka Comic Con at the Kansas Expocentre. The Topeka Comic Con, commonly referred to as TopCon, was created by The GYPSY, a successful international tattoo artist who wanted to give back to his hometown. He and his wife Debbie take part in multiple local organizations as well, such as Downtown Topeka Inc., Arts Connect, Visit Topeka Inc. and Get Downtown Topeka. TopCon was originally held in 2014 at the Quincy Street Conference & Event Center in Topeka. It was just 12 hours long and was advertised on social media for only 60 days leading up to the event. It had an

estimated 730 people in attendance. The next year, TopCon more than tripled in attendance with over 2300 convention goers. The event has switched its venue multiple times due to the increasing number of attendees before finally settling at the Agricultural Building at the Kansas Expocentre. TopCon encompasses
exhibitors, cosplayers, video and tabletop games, artists, authors and celebrity guests. Celebrity guests this year were Nakia Burrise, Greg “The Hammer” Valentine and Deep Roy. Roy, Kenyan actor and stunt performer, has been featured in various movies and TV shows like “Star Wars,” “Charlie and The Chocolate Factory,” “Star
clash of ideologies between Light and L, primarily in their respective conceptions of justice. Light sees using the notebook as a way of making the world a better place and sees the fall in global crime rates that he causes as validation that what he is doing is just and perhaps even necessary. He focuses on the ends while viewing the means with which he gets there simply as a necessity, showing his skewed moral compass. Ryuk serves as a catalyst for Light’s actions, being the one that brought the notebook to Light, teaching him how to use it, and urging him to try it out, while also warning that he could always find another owner of the book. This is contrasted by L, who sees the string of murders as just as egregious as the other serial killings that he has investigated before. L sees the future in a broader sense and focuses not only on the outcome of actions, but the morality of
the actions as well. The composition of scenes in respects of cinematography, blocking, and practical effects is excellent, giving scenes layers of meaning that stand up to multiple screenings. One excellent example of this is the dinner scene towards the beginning of the film, which combines tight camera angles, a detailed set, and the symbolism of the apple of temptation standing in for the notebook to great effect. “Death Note” is well directed and well shot, but the issues arrive in the writing. The film explores the question of the meaning of justice to intrigue the viewer, but unfortunately it can feel rushed at times. In addition, tone shifts as well, going from goofy to deathly serious at the drop of a hat in some scenes. All of this is compounded by the runtime, which is too short to tell the story.

Nakia Burrise is an American singer and actress best known for her role as the Yellow Ranger Tanya Sloan in “Mighty Morphin Power Rangers.” She is considered to be one of the most popular Power Ranger of all time. TopCon’s most popular event over the years has been a cosplay competition with categories such as Best Female Under 18, Best Male Under 18, Best Female Adult Over 18, Best Male Adult over 18, Best Crossover and Best in Show. The entry fee was $5, and 50 percent of the proceeds were donated to Alzheimer’s research.

Netflix ‘Death Note’ adaptation disappoints
Steven Dennis Washburn Review steven.dennis@washburn.edu
“Death Note” is a 2017 live action Netflix adaptation of a manga and animated series of the same name, and is an excellent example of a story in which the “hero” and the “protagonist” are not one and the same. The premise of the film is of a boy named Light (Nat Wolff), who obtains a magic notebook with the power to end the life of anyone whose name is written within its pages. After meeting with a god of death named Ryuk (Willem Dafoe), Light takes it upon himself to “cleanse” the world of criminals by systematically writing the names of various lawbreakers in the notebook. He is soon challenged by an elusive detective known only as L (Lakeith Stanfield). The central conflict of the film is provided by the

Two sides, same coin: “Death Note” has several amounts of ironic duality in both the anime and the live action film. The most notable of this is that despite Light’s name his actions and outlook of the world is incredibly dark.
ed series has an advantage, given that there were two seasons with which to examine the characters, their thought processes, and tension of scenarios. Given more time and focus on the writing and
characters, this movie could have been stronger, but the film’s merits still shine through. As it stands, the film is good, but falls short of greatness.
United Nations joins student organizations Mark Feuerborn Washburn Review mark.feuerborn@washburn.edu
Senior political science major Ty Buschbom came back to Washburn from a June United Nations conference in Washington D.C. with a mission: bring the U.N. to campus. “I got a scholarship to go over there, and it was very educational,” Buschbom said. “The second I got home to Kansas I sent an email to Joyce Johnson and I was like ‘I’m kicking around starting a U.N. chapter, would you be inter-
ested?’ She was like ‘Let’s do this.’” Three months later, he has accomplished that goal. It arrives as a new student organization called the WU United Nations Association this semester, aiming to get students involved in their humanitarian programs at a local level. The group is unique in that it is the first college United Nations chapter of its kind in the state of Kansas, and has currently planned its first meeting for Sept. 14 in Henderson 107 at 4 p.m. Buschbom said that the potential for its impact heavily influenced his decision to start a chapter. “A lot of people can connect to the humanitarian aspect,” Buschbom said. “Also, there are major business opportunities and there’s also international law. The U.N. is not limited to one thing, but human-
itarianism is definitely a major thing they do.” The new group is open to students from any major. When getting started, he said the biggest challenge was recruiting the minimum seven members to start a student organization, but as word got out students poured in quickly. “[Student Activites and Greek Life] has absolutely been incredible helping me through this process,” Buschbom said. “I’ve never done anything like this before, so everything’s new to me. I immediately reached out on Facebook to people I know, and within two days we had ten people. Now we have 35 members and we’re only three weeks in. It was really organic.” Students who joined were particularly interested in the U.N.’s aid programs around the world. “When I told them
about the things the United Nations does, I think that really spoke to a lot of people,” Buschbom said. “I explained how they’re saving millions of lives every day. The U.N. sends doctors and medical equipment over to [third world countries] so women can have higher success with birthrates. There are these wonderful organizations that are actively every day doing something to make the world better.” Buschbom also praised the student organization’s faculty advisor Patricia Dahl, who he said has been a perfect fit for the role. Dahl, a criminal justice and legal studies professor, said she happy with the progress the student organization has made so far. “We all seem to be on the same page, and real supportive of each other,” Dahl said. “I am so excited
to be working with these students. They’re very passionate about the organization, and sharing it with the campus.” Dahl also shared some of the events that WU-UNA has prepared for the fall semester. Aside from their debut Sept. 14 meeting, the group is volunteering together at the university’s Sept. 23 Family Day and planning a Nov. 22 fundraiser. WU-UNA will also see U.N. Rep. Tom Sloan and the Climate and Energy Project’s Dr. Kellis Bayless as guest speakers on campus Oct. 24 in celebration of United Nations Day. Students and faculty interested in joining WUUNA are encouraged to attend the group’s Sept. 14 meeting, or reach out to Buschbom at ty.buschbom@washburn.edu for more information on the organization.

Washburn football falls short of major upset Trevor Beurmon
Washburn Review trevor.beurmon@washburn.edu
The Ichabods hosted their first home football game of the season against the Northwest Missouri State Bearcats. The football team looked to improve to 2-0 on Sept. 7 as they faced the top college football team in the nation for their home opener. While the team fell just short of their goal, the Ichabods had no shortage of teamwork. Starting out the game, the Ichabods started slow offensively after winning the coin toss and owning the first possession of the game. On the first drive, the offense had nothing going in terms of quality yards gained to even attempt to put points on the board. The offense went three and out with a punt after one yard gained on the entire drive. It looked grim for the Ichabods from there, but relief was at hand from the defense when the Bearcats took their first shot on the field. At first, the Bearcats steamrolled down the field with no resistance from the Ichabods as they brought it down to the goal line on the second drive of the game. The Ichabods managed to hold the Bearcats to a fourth down stand on the goal line, causing the crowd to erupt. That victory was shortlived, however, as on the first play of the third

offensive drive of the game, the Ichabods were tackled in the backfield for a safety. After turning the ball over and putting points on the board for Northwest Missouri State, the offense was a step behind the defense for the entire first half. Punting to a dynamically athletic offense after the safety, Northwest Missouri State took to the field on their own 37 yard line. The defense held strong, and caused the Bearcats to punt after three plays and four yards gained after the safety. The game continued to be a struggle for the offensive side totaling only 28 yards of forward progression the
entire first half. The Ichabods missed a 47 yard field goal, and the Bearcats made a 29 yard field goal and end the half with a 5-0 score in favor of the Bearcats. This was a small victory for the Ichabods. Holding the top team in the nation is no easy task, and the defense stood like a brick wall heading into halftime. After the break, the Bearcats received possession and tore through the defense for the first time of the night. The Bearcats went for nine plays for 78 yards and a touchdown, putting 12 points on the board.
After going down 12, the Ichabods answered the Bearcats by sparking a huge offensive drive that ended in five plays, 71 yards and a touchdown, putting Washburn’s first points on the board with a 12-7 score. After finally putting points on the board, the Ichabods got the ball back with a huge fumble on the kickoff return and earn a chance to take the lead with great field position. However, the offense squandered their opportunity and fell short on a fourth down stand by the Bearcats on their own 12 yard line. After the missed oppor-
tunity, the Ichabods and Bearcats battled it out, with the Bearcats putting a substantial drive at the end of the third quarter. The Bearcats continued their offensive attack and broke past the Ichabod’s defense for another score in the end zone. This put them up 20-7, with a two point conversion with 12:06 left in the fourth quarter. The back and forth battle kept up until Washburn put a touchdown scoring drive on the board, making the score 20-14. The whole game ultimately came down to the Bearcat’s next offensive drive, as the Ichabod’s defense held firm. On fourth and two on the Ichabod’s 40, the Bearcats punted, as an upset in Washburn’s favor seemed like a possible feat. However, the game came down to a questionable penalty call, which gave the Bearcats the automatic first down and ultimately ended the Ichabods’ bid for a major upset. The game ended with a score of 20-14. While the Ichabods fell short in the end, they fought the Bearcats tooth and nail and gave the number one team in the nation a run for their money. For their next game, the Ichabods will travel to Saint Charles, Missouri to face Lindenwood University at 6 p.m. The game can be seen on the MIAA Network or listened to on 106.9 FM KTPK.

Since going 2-0-1 to start the season, the Washburn women’s soccer team succumbed to their first loss Sept. 10 at Yager Stadium against the Newman University Jets. The Jets came out striking in the first half, putting three in the back of the net before reaching first half. Those three goals came from the Jets’ Rosa Urista-Chico, Grace Linton and Colleen Howland. Ultimately, the Jets had 11 shots on goal compared to the Ichabods’ four, three saves to our seven, three corners to our four and 16 shots to our seven per wusports.com.

Hello Bods, My name is Sarah Arriaga, I am a Senator for the Washburn Student Government Association and a Bod Squad director. Sadly, I don’t have any cool dad jokes to share with you all today. But, I do want to encourage everyone of you to visit the WSGA office sometime. It is located in the Memorial Union Underground, in case you did not know. As Senators, it is our job to be the voice of students, and having a conversation with
you all can help us to really know what the students want and need. The executive staff have their office hours posted on the door, so you know when they are available. Other Senators have their office hour randomly throughout the week, so if you ever need someone to talk to, stop by and see who is available. The office is a friendly space and we are all open to discussing new ideas, questions, issues, or just life as an Ichabod in general. Of course, I also encourage everyone to get involved around campus. There are many different organi-
zations doing great things all around campus including Bod Squad which meets every Third Thursday at 3:00pm in the Union Underground, and CAB Crew which meets every Monday at 4:00pm in the CAB office. If you’re interested in either of those groups or just need someone to talk to please feel free to reach out to me on social media or email : ). #GoBods #SkoBods #WSGA Hope you’re having a wonderful day, Chairwoman Sarah Arriaga
