Union Program Council hosts Canoe Battleship event

Manhattanites and K-Staters celebrate annual Nepal Night LOGAN WASSALL THE COLLEGIAN

Alanoud Alanazi | COLLEGIAN MEDIA GROUP Teams shoot water at each other during Canoe Battleship held by K-State Student Union Program Council in the K-State Natatorium on Sept. 8, 2017.

GABRIELLE MEEDS THE COLLEGIAN

Almost 200 students filled the Natatorium with laughter and cheering as six canoes holding four students each played a real life game of Battleship in the pool at the Union Programming Council’s Canoe Battleship event Friday evening. The event was inspired by a similar event at the University of Connecticut. The game intrigued UPC enough to bring it to K-State, said Michael Varhola, After Hours co-chair and sophomore in construction science management. The event’s goal was to provide a fun way to encourage teamwork among students. Last year’s Canoe Battleship did not see many participants due to bad weather, but Varhola and UPC decided to bring it back. The entire Natatorium was used for fun in the water. While students waited their turn to play, they took advantage of the lap pools and

diving boards. Each game of Battleship took approximately ten minutes. Emma Witter, freshman in marketing and communications, said the event was a fun way to spend her Friday night and that she would recommend this event to friends. She said she hopes to return next year with better Battleship tactics. Witter said she also plans on getting involved in more activities held by UPC because of her positive experience with Canoe Battleship. This event brought together students and promoted a healthy social environment for them to make new friends. “Mingling with so many different people was fun,” Oliver Schmitz, freshman in agricultural technology management, said. UPC teamed up with Recreational Services, who allowed them to use the pool and provided canoes. Beth Bailey, assistant director and program manager at K-State Student Union, said this would not have been possible without the help of Recreational Services.

On Sept. 9, Forum Hall in the K-State Student Union was filled with bright lights, festive music and a welcoming atmosphere for Nepal Night. The Nepalese Student Association (NSA) organized Nepal Night to display Nepal’s culture through clothing, dancing and song. Saubhagya Shrestha, Manhattan resident and Nepal native, helped host the event. “It was just a celebration of Nepalese culture that we got to share with everyone at K-State and in Manhattan,” Shrestha said. “When I first moved here from Nepal, I kind of missed home ... NSA was just like a place where I could feel like it’s Nepal again … When Nepal Night came around, I knew that I wanted to do something big in it, so I decided to MC the event.” Nepal Night was a celebration of culture with attendees up on their feet, clapping and dancing along with each of the performances. Manhattan resident Bibek Subegi expressed his excitement after the event. “It reflects our culture,” Subegi said. “We have a diverse variety of cultures, even though we are a smaller coun-

Dhungel is also a member of NSA and said that Nepal Night was originally a way to say thank you to people who helped support and donate to their country after an earthquake in 2015. “It initially started out in that way, but we kept on doing it to show our culture to as big a mass as possible,” Dhungel said.

Football keeps domination streak, defeating Charlotte 55-7

George Walker | COLLEGIAN MEDIA GROUP

K-State sophomore offensive lineman Tyler Mitchell lifts senior quarterback Jesse Ertz in celebration after a touchdown during the football game against the Charlotte 49ers at Bill Snyder Family Stadium on Sept. 9, 2017.

DEAUNDRA ALLEN THE COLLEGIAN

The Kansas State Wildcat’s football season is off to a strong start, as they win against University of North Carolina-Charlotte, 55-7. They are now 2-0. Last week, quarterback Jesse Ertz became the school’s 21st career 2,000 yard passer. During the game against Charlotte, Ertz moved up to number 17 in school history with 2,266 yards. Ertz also racked

up 76 rushing yards, making him 23rd in school history with 1,174 rushing yards. In the post-game conference, Ertz talked about his offensive line. Offensive line played great. We had some different guys in there and they still stepped up,” said Ertz. “It was good to spread the ball. It was good to get Alex (Barnes) going. We have the ability, we just have to make it happen.” Ertz wasn’t the only one that stood out, as safety Kendall Adams had two defensive

touchdowns for the game. Adams had not made a touchdown since his high school years, and said that “it just felt good.” The first touchdown was an interception for Adams in the first quarter for 30 yards, while the second one was a fumble, which resulted in a 46 yard touchdown in the second quarter. Adams was happy with everything on how it worked out. "Coach told us what the quarterback liked to do in certain situations, so we had a game plan and I sat on the route and saw the throw and broke on it to run it in,” said Adams. “On the fumble, we are always coached that if its borderline, to go ahead and pick it up and run it back. I could not really tell from where I was at and ran it back just in case and it worked out." Teammate and linebacker Trent Tanking was excited for Adams on his pick-six. "He was great,” said Tanking. “Obviously making the pick-six in the first quarter was a big play. And for him to pick up the lateral that was close, and to take it to the house was awesome.”

THE COLLEGIAN

The Kansas State volleyball team ended the weekend with a winning record as they went 2-1 in the Georgia Tech Invitational

in Atlanta. The Wildcats opened the invitational with a win over the North Florida Ospreys in four sets on Thursday in a match that they dominated. “I was very pleased,” said head coach Suzie Fritz to

K-State Sports. “I thought we played really well on both sides of the ball. We were looking for some kind of a differential between what we hit and what they hit. We were really pleased. We hit for a high efficiency and, maybe more importantly, we held them to 15 percent. I thought it was a good volleyball team. I thought we played very physically. We were significantly better on defense, better at the net.” The Wildcats had two matches on Friday, starting the day with a match against Xavier, which was a straight set win for K-State in the first ever match between these two schools. In the match, K-State hit over .350 while holding the Musketeers to .218. A big stat of the match was the Wildcats had seven aces while Xavier only had one.

Women's basketball signs junior center Anastasia Tsybaeva JULIA JORNS

THE COLLEGIAN

On Sept. 7, the Kansas State women’s basketball program signed Anastasia Tsybaeva to play for the 20172018 season. Tsybaeva is a 6-foot-7inch center from Burbank, California who will have two years of eligibility left. She is one of two current junior

transfers from community colleges in California. The other transfer is Kali Jones, a 6 foot 2 forward from Murrieta, California. During her last season on her high school team in 2015, Tsybaeva was part of the All-Pacific League Second Team, averaging 10.2 points, 6.6 rebounds and 2.7 blocks during her senior year. In her freshman year at East Los Angeles College,

she played 30 games, starting in 15 and averaging 6 points in 6.9 minutes a game while shooting 47.8 percent field goals and 54.8 percent from the free throw line. In her 2016-2017 sophomore season, Tsybaeva started 24 of 28 games where she contributed 6 rebounds a game, while improving her playing time to 11.7 minutes a game and shot 43 percent from the field and 73 percent of free

throws attempted. The K-State women’s basketball program has gradually improved their overall record in the last three years with head coach Jeff Mittie. Mittie joined the K-State family as the newest women’s basketball head coach in 2014, replacing Deb Patterson. Mittie spent 14 years at Texas Christian University, a conference rival for the

Wildcats, leading the Horned Frogs to nine NCAA tournaments and 13 winning seasons. Mittie’s record with the TCU program was 303-175. Coming into the 2017-2018 season at K-State, Mittie has led the wildcats to a 61-38 record (.616). This year’s roster includes five freshmen, two sophomores, three juniors and three seniors. Senior Karyla Middlebrook, a 5’7 guard from

Blue Springs, Missouri, scored a career high 201 points in her junior season under coach Mittie, leading the team in free throw percentage at 71.9 percent. She also had a career highs in baskets made from the field at 38.6 percent and assists with 106 for the season. At 6 feet 7 inches, Tsybaeva is the tallest player in the program’s history and just the third signee from the state of California.

Snyder was impressed with the defense’s efforts in today’s game. “Defensively, what was impressive to me was that we came out and had three consecutive three-and-outs. We were good on third down,” said Snyder. “The score we gave up was the result of a play on special teams. I thought special

The Burrow: Harry Potter fans conduct community outreach SIERRA MARSTALL THE COLLEGIAN

Beyond the magical realm of Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry lies an international alliance full of wizards and witches at heart who do more than just commemorate the beloved book series. The Harry Potter Alliance is a club that reaches worldwide. The Burrow, named after the Weasley family home, is the HPA chapter at Kansas State and was founded in 2010. Karin Westman, English department head and associate professor, as well as one of the professors of the Harry Potter literature course at K-State, advises the chapter. “The Burrow chapter was founded for members of the K-State and Manhattan communities who wished to celebrate Rowling's series and foster community outreach connected to the themes of her series,” Westman said. Although the group is centered around the themes and imagery of the Harry Potter universe, one does not need to have read or watched the Harry Potter books or movies in order to be a member. Members focus mainly on the activism and helping to better the community around them. One of the unique campaigns

of the HPA is the Accio Books Campaign. In the Harry Potter universe, the word "accio" is a summoning charm. The goal of Accio Books is to provide or, in Harry Potter terms, ‘summon’ books for underprivileged kids. This past semester, The Burrow chapter at K-State held a coin drive raising money for books. Members and passersby were able to drop off coins into jars separated by the Hogwarts houses of Gryffindor, Hufflepuff, Ravenclaw and Slytherin. All the proceeds went to buy books for underprivileged kids in the community. According to Westman, The Burrow has partnered with the Children's and Adolescent Literature Community for many years by sponsoring a wizard rock concert called The Hallows and Horcruxes Ball. Last year, they featured bands like Draco and the Malfoys, bringing 200-300 people from across the Midwest and K-State. The event raised money for the Junction City chapter of First Book, a national literacy organization. “[We can] use our fandoms to help guide us to do good in the community, and it’s a lot of fun,” Stephanie Bayless, junior in geology and treasurer for The Burrow, said. The Burrow is about fellowship, activism and, of course, Harry Potter. The Burrow holds meetings every

K-State faculty share summer protest arrest experiences, thoughts HAILEY MCCLELLAN THE COLLEGIAN

This summer, members of the Kansas State staff, along with support from students, went to Washington, D.C. to protest the vote to repeal the Affordable Care Act. In an act of civil disobedience, Jessica Kerr and Brandon Irwin, K-State faculty, were arrested protesting the vote outside U.S. senator’s offices. “When you feel this issue is not getting the coverage, or that people aren’t talking about it on the level that they should, your options are limited there,” Irwin, assistant professor in kinesiology, said.

“Civil disobedience, or other kinds of activism, is the next option.” While the GOP is working to repeal and reform the ACA, Kansas Senator Jerry Moran is for the repeal but voted no this summer on the Better Care Reconciliation Act (BCRA), according to NPR. On the other hand, Kansas Senator Pat Roberts voted yes for repeal. The vote ended with an ultimate “no” to reforming ACA with BCRA. This would have left 22 million more uninsured by 2026 than the current heath care act, according to Congressional Budget Office. The process of getting to

Washington started with Nathan Faflick, senior in family studies and human services, who was in East Africa at the time. Faflick started making calls when he heard that Kansas representation was essential in getting senators’ attention in Washington to protest the repeal of ACA. Faflick was moved to action and started making calls to anyone he thought would be willing to go to Washington and speak out against the repeal. “I called everyone I could think of in Kansas that I knew who would be willing to do this; Jess and Brandon ... were two of the most enthusiastic yeses.” Faflick said.

Irwin said that they broadcast this whole experience on social media, using a GoFundMe to support them in travel and lodging. People in Manhattan and all over the country donated to help while watching on their Facebook page “Living and Dying in Kansas” as things unfolded. Kerr, advisor in education, said when considering what kind of society in which she would want to live, that thought is just a point of entry into the world of activism and speaking out. “It’s important for us to remember that the things that politicians say are not the ideas of a society,” Kerr said. “We are able to create those

ideas together and in solidarity of something that’s better. Ultimately if we do that … the responses of the politicians in power will turn to meet the people’s demands.” The two faculty members, along with others, were protesting outside each of the Kansas senators’ offices when they were arrested under a civil disobedience charge. They were given citations and fined $50, which had been raised ahead of time by the national organizers. “In the end, getting arrested was basically less than a parking ticket.” Irwin said. Brennan Flanagan, senior in secondary education, said we have a school system that

silences the individuality and voice of students and teachers. “So it’s good they are stepping outside of the institution of the school system and being a leader in responsible protesting,” Flanagan said. A team at K-State — including Kerr, Irwin and Faflick — is working to put together a podcast to campaign for the marginalized and vulnerable population in Manhattan, capturing their voice and sharing it with the rest of the community. “When it comes to human rights, it is very important to be active because if you are passive about it, it can be easily swept under the rug,” Flanagan said.

OPINION: Basic email etiquette is nonexistent Last Thursday night, I leisurely sat down at my computer desk to check my email. Things seemed normal at first — the latest edition of K-State Today, a survey from Lafene Health Center and way too much information about intramurals — until I suddenly noticed a very unusual pile of angry words. Dozens of students were sending agitated emails asking to be taken off a mailing list. Also present were harsh words for the people asking to be removed and a few bad memes. It’s shocking, really. Even at a university that’s famous

for naughty basketball chants and Title IX investigations, the student body can still find new ways to disappoint me. It all started when Sara Luly, associate professor of German, sent an email at 12:44 p.m. on behalf of the Department of Modern Languages asking for student ambassadors. Seems innocent enough, right? The trouble began 15 minutes later when a student tried to reply, but hit “reply all” instead, sending a reply email to every single person on the mailing list.

of at some point, two things combined to turn this into a fiasco. One, she sent two emails, the first one merely saying, “Hello,” presumably because she accidentally pressed send before she was finished writing. Two, this particular mailing list was the “Modern Languages Enrolled Listserv,” a mailing list that can be safely assumed to contain every single student who is enrolled in a foreign language class. Someone else made the same “reply all” mistake within half an hour, and yet another person hit “reply all”

to say, “I believe you have sent this to the wrong person.” The madness truly began at 3:49 p.m. when some poor soul asked to be removed from the mailing list. Others followed, over and over again, until a new email was being sent to the mailing list every few minutes. People began to grow impatient. “This is idiotic,” one person said. Attempts to educate people on the purpose of the “reply all” button grew less helpful and more insulting. “Everyone in this list is a college student, please use

common sense,” someone said. “It is not that hard.” The dumpster fire reached critical mass at 8:45 p.m. when these words echoed throughout the modern languages department: “Who’s ready for some memes?” In total, 50 emails were sent to hundreds of Kansas State students, possibly thousands. I could feel my IQ dropping with every successive addition to my inbox. Would it be too much to have some kind of seminar on email etiquette for new students at K-State? It might go a long way toward preventing things like this from happen-

Women's soccer defeats Central Arkansas, loses to Creighton JARRETT WHITSON THE COLLEGIAN

Nathan Jones | COLLEGIAN MEDIA GROUP

Sophomore midfielder Laramie Hall kicks the ball during the game against Central Arkansas in the Kansas State Soccer Stadium on Sept. 8, 2017.

The Kansas State Wildcats limped into Manhattan after a bitter loss at Northern Iowa and took on the Central Arkansas Bears last Friday. Being back in the comforts of the K-State Soccer Complex may have been what they needed, as the Wildcats dominated the Bears by a score of 3-1. The first goal for K-State came at the 18:45 mark in the first half, scored by Brookelyn Entz. The 5-foot-4-inch freshman from Newton, Kansas wasn’t done scoring on the night; Entz tallied her second goal, the team’s third, in the 69th minute. That second goal was a record-setter, as Entz became the first K-State women’s soccer player to score multiple goals in a game. Junior Morgan Mauck scored the second K-State goal and assisted Entz on her first goal.

“I got the goals because our offense was moving around a lot," Entz said to K-State Sports. "We were so dynamic and the goals just came because of that. Really it was just a team effort we played so well together and that’s why I got those two goals." The Wildcat offense was explosive, scoring three goals and getting a whopping 13 shots on goal. The defense held their own for most of the match as well, surrendering just one score that came after they virtually had the win in their hands. The lone Central Arkansas goal came in the 78th minute when Jordan Slim netted a header. That score was “too little, too late,” as K-State improved to 3-2-1 and Central Arkansas dropped to 2-5-0 in this 2017 season. On Sunday, K-State played host to the Creighton Bluejays. Creighton came into the 1 p.m. match with a record of 0-5-1. Their last match be-

fore visiting the Cats resulted in a 2-2 tie with UMKC, who K-State beat 3-0 in an exhibition match. The first goal of the game was scored on a penalty kick by Creighton’s Taryn Jakubowski, who also added an assist to her afternoon. The next two goals for Creighton came for Hannah Miller and Kylin Grubb. Despite taking 33 shots and 13 on goal, K-State only scored twice. After being down 0-1 at the break, the Wildcats rebounded with two goals from Megan Kalkofen and Tatum Wagner to go up 2-1. They couldn’t hold the lead long enough as Creighton netted twice more in the 69th and 73rd minutes. It marked the first win of 2017 for the Bluejays. K-State hits the road to Vermillion, South Dakota to battle the South Dakota Coyotes on Thursday, September 14th at 4 p.m. The Wildcats (3-3-1) look to get their second win over the Coyotes (2-6).

VOLLEYBALL | K-State players named to all-tournament team continued from page

K-State junior Kylee Zumach led the team with 14 kills, senior Bryna Vogel had 11 and junior Alyssa Schultejans finished with 10 in the winning effort. Vogel hit a team high .450 hitting percentage and failed to make an attack error in the final two sets of the match. In the final match of the invitational, K-State lost in five sets to the Georgia Tech Yellow Jackets on its home court. Both teams were very even as both teams hit just over .300. K-State finished with 21 attack errors, four more than Georgia Tech. Four Wildcats ended with

double digits in kills: Schultejans had 19 kills, Zumach had 15, junior Macy Flowers ended with 13 and sophomore Elle Sandbothe had 11 in the loss. Schultejans and Vogel were named to the all-tournament team; this was the second tournament that Vogel was named to an all-tournament team. The Wildcats are now 4-5 on the season. They will return home on Tuesday when they host the University of Missouri Kansas City at 6 p.m. inside Ahearn Field House. The Kangaroos are also 4-5 this season and went 2-1 in the Kangaroo Classic this past weekend in Kansas City.
