THE COLLEGIAN
Just a few weeks after the opening of the Cats’ Cupboard, Kansas State’s newest food pantry, its employees are continuing to increase the pantry’s impact and set new goals. Donations have been roll-
ing in daily from organizations and individuals. These donations help provide complete, nourishing meals for college students. “We have definitely been growing,” said Mark Woolard, Cats’ Cupboard employee and graduate student in family studies. “Every week, there has been an increase of at least two to three students walking through our doors.”
Moving forward, the food pantry hopes to reach more students in need. “One of our biggest goals is still to raise awareness of us to make it common knowledge of our organization and purpose,” Erin Bishop, Cats’ Cupboard coordinator, said. “We would like to eventually get perishable items and produce stocked on our shelves.” The Cats’ Cupboard will host their official grand opening on Monday. As part of a promotional campaign, new branding pieces and logos will be released. The Cats’ Cupboard is also looking to form collaborative partnerships with other campus organizations and partners outside the university. “We would like to change from a start-up operation to something that becomes an intricate part of the community at K-State,” said Stephen Kucera, student support director and graduate student in accounting. Next week, the Cats’ Cupboard will expand their hours to better accommodate students. The new hours will

By the numbers: K-State Parking Services News Briefs: Oct. 13 Compiled by Rachel Hogan Eternati Willock was dismissed from the Kansas State women’s basketball team Wednesday. Head coach Jeff Mittie dismissed the sophomore forward on the grounds of “continued violations of team rules,” according to the Wichita Eagle. Willock was previously suspended from the team in April following an arrest for criminal trespassing and liquor purchase by a minor.
MADISON LOSCHKE THE COLLEGIAN
Students may struggle daily with parking on the Kansas State campus, but everyone has their little tricks that make it easier to get where they need to be. Kalie Rumbold, senior in agribusiness, said whenever she is in doubt of finding a parking space, she goes to the lot behind Weber Hall. “Parking on campus is more of a hassle than any-
thing,” Rumbold said. “If you time it right, you’ll find a parking spot. If you time it wrong, you’ll be driving around campus trying to find available space and miss class.” Other students said they choose to carpool. “I beg my friends that live off campus for rides,” Olivia Lee, freshman in finance, said. “It is so much easier than driving my own car and losing my parking spot. Mid-afternoon on Sundays, the front lot usually has a lot of empty spots, so I always go scouting for a good
spot then.” According to the K-State Parking Services, the university has a total of 11,500 parking stalls on campus, not including motorcycle parking. These stalls are spread across 13 different parking areas. The residence halls have exactly 1,635 spots reserved. These spots are monitored 24 hours a day, seven days a week to ensure only those with a pass are parking there. Off-campus or commuting students are allotted 1,070 stalls on campus, with 500 of

them being in the parking garage by the Student Union during daytime hours. Faculty and staff have 2,600 stalls reserved on campus. All areas on campus are monitored and ticketed Monday through Friday from 7 a.m. to 5 p.m. After that, anyone is allowed to park mostly anywhere. This excludes the residence hall parking lots, which are monitored 24/7. Daytime passes are also available when needed from the Parking Services office. Students pay a base rate of $180 for their desired passes, while faculty and staff pass prices are based on salary ranges. “The biggest thing is to ask the Parking Services if you have a question,” said Jeff Barnes, interim director of Parking Services. “We would love to answer your questions.” Tickets and appeals are tricky business. There are three full-time employees and eight part-time students that issue tickets on campus. Ticket appeals are sent to be judged by a student and a faculty/staff member in appeals court. Barnes said if students get a ticket, they should come talk to Parking Services instead of waiting. “We want to help people before they get tickets,” Barnes said. “I want to help them follow the rules. If they have questions, come ask. ... We can’t change a lot of things, I can’t create more stalls, but we are here to help.”
President Donald Trump signed an executive order on healthcare Thursday morning. According to CNBC, the order aims to provide “Obamacare relief ” by relaxing the rules regarding both health plans provided by small businesses and short-term health insurance plans. This could potentially expand healthcare options for Americans while lowering costs. The executive order will not have a major effect on the upcoming enrollment season for Obamacare unless the administration takes further action. The Collegian launched the Cat’s Meow

According to CBS News, a maintenance worker at Mandalay Bay told hotel dispatchers to alert authorities and report a gunman with a rifle. Stephen Schuck was checking a report of a jammed fire door on the 32nd floor when shots rang down the hotel hallway. Schuck took cover with a security guard who had been shot in the leg. This is alleged to have happened approximately six minutes before the shooter, Stephen Paddock, began firing into the crowd of a nearby music festival from his hotel suite. It is unclear if Mandalay Bay staff contacted Las Vegas police, or if better communication could have prevented the shooting.

Food delivery services offer new ways to satisfy hunger at home NATHAN KING
THE COLLEGIAN
In recent years, mobile apps focused on food delivery services have flourished both locally and nationwide. According to the Morgan Stanley investment firm, Americans spent $11 billion ordering food from online delivery services in 2016. Entrepreneurial companies based in California — like JoyRun and Tapingo — and local companies like Wildcat2Go saw potential in the market of online food ordering and began providing Kansas State students with endless mealtime opportunities that can be delivered straight to their doors. Here are the competitive advantages that set each company apart from the rest. The premiere food delivery service for K-Staters
is Wildcat2Go. This locally owned business mostly delivers food from Manhattan restaurants such as Mr. K’s, Wingstop, Baan Thai and The Goose Bar and Grill. Wildcat2Go is unique in the way it charges customers. If the customer lives within four miles of the driver, then the driver will charge the customer $3.49 for the delivery. If the customer lives beyond four miles from the driver, an additional $1 fee is charged per mile. “Wildcat2Go can sometimes be expensive,” Tyler Parker, junior in theatre, said. “I usually just use it every once in a while to treat myself.” Tapingo, a San Francisco start-up company, was founded on the idea that consumers spend too much of their time in lines waiting for food. As of 2017, Tapingo has expanded to more than 200 universities.
Most of the restaurants that have partnered with Tapingo are national chains, but the company has also partnered with local restaurants like Bi Bim Bap and Radina’s Coffee Shop. However, Tapingo has its downsides. One of its major downsides is that wait times can become long during rush hours. Some students say they just can’t stomach the longer wait. “Usually the wait time is so long that I could drive to the restaurant and order my food and make it back home before the food would’ve been delivered,” Josie Hesse, sophomore in criminology, said. Another downside of Tapingo is that customers can only order from restaurants that are partnered with Tapingo. This problem was solved by another food delivery company called JoyRun.

JoyRun is another delivery app that connects food delivery to social networks. It’s like a college student saying they’re off to pick up a sandwich and asking their friend if they want anything. JoyRun allows customers to switch roles between ordering food and being the “runners” who pick up and deliver the food. Many students start out as users of the service and eventually become runners for JoyRun. “I remember seeing a flyer for it at Jardine when I went to visit my girlfriend,” Austin Lovelace, senior in secondary education, said. “About a week later, we were hanging out at my place and it was raining. ... I lived on the outskirts of town at the time. We decided to order Buffalo Wild Wings, and it just made our night when the guy showed up with the delivery.” Runners can pick up food
for free as a favor for friends, or they can charge customers up to $5 per person.

Know your opponent: Texas Christian University will be tough to beat NATHAN ENSERRO THE COLLEGIAN
Texas Christian University is probably the most consistent football team that Kansas State has faced so far this year. The scary part is that they consistently look like a top 10 team and are very deserving of their sixth-place ranking in the Associated Press college football poll. The TCU Horned Frogs are led by former K-State linebacker and burgeoning country music star Gary Patterson. His career record as a head coach is currently 154-54, and he has maintained his success
through three conference changes. Even among many incredible football teams in TCU’s history, this is probably one of the best teams Patterson has coached. This season’s TCU team features an excellent defense once again. TCU leads the Big 12 conference in rushing defense and fewest average points allowed per game. Led by junior defensive end Ben Banogu and senior linebacker Travin Howard, TCU runs a unique defense. Their “4-2-5” system puts four linemen on the field, two linebackers behind them and five defensive backs. This means they only
have six players in “the box,” an area that goes from the line of scrimmage to five yards back and is as wide as the offensive line. The players in “the box” are the team’s primary run-stoppers. Most defensive systems put seven players in “the box.” K-State will have to get the receivers going early if they want to have a chance in their next game. If the receivers who aren’t named Dalton Schoen can find their hands by Saturday, they won’t have to rely on the run to beat TCU. Patterson’s defenses are consistently good, so the difference between a good TCU team and an average TCU
team is the offense. This year, the Horned Frogs are very good on offense. They will line up and try to spread the field and move fast, much like the rest of the teams in the Big 12 conference. TCU’s offense will be in a “hurry up, no huddle” mode for most of, if not the whole game. Even though they move quickly and efficiently, they somehow manage to take up quite a bit of time. The clock is seemingly always moving thanks to their quarterback’s accuracy.

TCU rises to top spot in Big 12 football power rankings, KSU No. 8 NATHANIEL FUNK THE COLLEGIAN
1. TCU (5-0)
There’s a new leader in the Big 12 conference. The Horned Frogs are continuing to dominate, moving up in the national rankings to number six. They will continue their pursuit of a perfect season and a College Football Playoff run. Kenny Hill continues to improve as quarterback, and the Horned Frogs’ defense is suffocating. TCU is the last undefeated team in the Big 12, but they face a tough game at Kansas State this weekend.
2. OKLAHOMA (4-1)
It was a weekend to forget for
the Sooners, who suffered their first loss of the season to an unranked Iowa State team. TCU is now in the driver’s seat for the Big 12, but the two teams will meet up later in the season. This week, the Sooners play against the University of Texas Longhorns in one of the most historic rivalries in college football.
3. OKLAHOMA STATE (4-1)
Oklahoma State had a bye week this past weekend. The Cowboys will go head to head with the Baylor Bears in Stillwater, Oklahoma, on Saturday.
4. TEXAS (3-2)
The Longhorns came away with a huge win against K-State,
pulling it off in double overtime. Texas has made steady improvements every single week and looks like a team on the rise. This weekend, they have a chance to prove themselves in the Red River Rivalry against the Oklahoma Sooners.
5. WEST VIRGINIA (3-2)
The Mountaineers took a tough loss to TCU this weekend, but they did put up quite the fight. Even after a loss, West Virginia proved they can compete with the top teams in the nation. This weekend brings another tough test as they face up with the number 24 team in the country, Texas Tech.
pressed a lot of teams in the Big 12 this season. They recovered after a tough loss to Oklahoma State with a win over the University of Kansas this weekend. Texas Tech and West Virginia will square up on Saturday in what should be a real battle.
7. IOWA STATE (3-2)
The Cyclones pulled off what might be the upset of the year with their win over Oklahoma this past week. This weekend, Iowa State may go 2-1 in conference play when they play KU at home.
6. TEXAS TECH (4-1)

K-State looks to take on No. 6 Texas Christian University at home DEAUNDRA ALLEN THE COLLEGIAN
The Kansas State Wildcats will host Texas Christian University at home this Saturday in Bill Snyder Family Stadium, kicking off at 11 a.m. TCU is currently ranked sixth in the nation with an undefeated 5-0 record, while K-State is 3-2 this season. Last week, the TCU Horned Frogs went head-tohead against West Virginia University, where they won 31-24 at home. TCU’s quarterback Kenny Hill has racked up 1,153 yards and thrown 10 touchdown passes this season. TCU’s leading receiver Desmon White has rushed for 168 yards and run two touchdowns. Leading tackler Travin Howard has had 38 tackles in

Kansas State plays Texas Christian University in Bill Snyder Family Stadium on Oct. 10, 2015. the past five games. Additionally, head coach Gary Patterson currently has a career record of 154-54. For the Wildcats, last week they went up against the Uni-
versity of Texas and lost 40-34 in double overtime. Sophomore quarterback Alex Delton saw some playing time and showed leadership for the Wildcats, and senior quarterback Jesse Ertz
has had 336 passing yards and thrown for three touchdowns. Sources have said that due to Ertz’s apparent knee injury, Delton could be the Wildcat football team’s first string quarterback on Saturday. During the K-State football weekly press conference Tuesday, head coach Bill Snyder stayed away from talking about Ertz’s alleged knee injury, but Snyder did talk about the Wildcat quarterbacks in some capacity. “Jesse is number one, Alex is number two,” Snyder said. “Skylar [Thompson] is doing well — he is getting repetitions in practice. Not too many third string guys get a lot of reps in practice, but he gets a fair share of them.” Snyder also talked about Delton and the passing ability he has shown this season.
“Alex has a strong arm,” Snyder said. “As for anybody in that position, he wouldn’t be there if he couldn’t throw the ball. I think the important thing is to manage the process and go through the progressions and make the right decisions about where to go with the ball.” Snyder talked about TCU’s quarterback and how Hill has improved from previous years. “He wasn’t all that bad when he came into the ballgame against us a year ago,” Snyder said. “They talk about him being improved, and I certainly can see that. That is how it should be. You should be getting better and better all the time — even us old people should be getting better over time. “[Hill] is throwing the ball well, and he is 10th in the nation in completing 69 percent of his passes,” Snyder continued. “He
can bring the ball down when he wants to and run. There are times when you’re watching him on tape and ... you can tell he has excellent speed. I do not know what his clock time is, but he can run.” As far as playing against a highly-ranked team goes, Snyder said he believes it creates a different mindset in football players. “I think for players it truly does make a difference,” Snyder said. “From a coach’s standpoint, they are all good. ... It just makes sense that there are a lot of good football teams in this conference. I would like to think that everybody would be highly motivated no matter who you were playing.” The Wildcats and the Horned Frogs will kick off at 11 a.m. on Saturday. The game will be broadcast on FS1.
A reimagined reality: Big 12 quarterbacks as fast food chains DEAUNDRA ALLEN NATHAN ENSERRO
of the Big 12 quarterbacks, just like Wendy’s. He's hit and miss, but when he’s on, he is arguably better than McDonald's. One Baconator to go, please.
Have you ever wondered what quarterbacks would be if they were fast food? Have no fear.
TCU - KENNY HILL
THE COLLEGIAN
OKLAHOMA - BAKER MAYFIELD
McDonald's. He plays for the Big 12’s name brand school, Oklahoma. McDonald's is the name brand fast food restaurant. Too much Mayfield will make your defense look sluggish and tired, just like too much McDonald's will make you slow and tired.
OKLAHOMA STATE MASON RUDOLPH
Wendy’s. Rudolph is not exactly the first thing you think of you think of when you think
Whataburger. Hill experienced extreme hype based on a couple games when he was with Texas A&M, but has been slightly underwhelming ever since. You expect greasy goodness, but instead you get a soggy bun and cold fries.
KU - PEYTON BENDER Taco Bell. It is late at night, David Beaty is hungry and still needs a quarterback, so Bender probably sounds really good. Then the next morning rolls around, and your body finds a way to let you know that Taco Bell wasn’t the best choice. But, like KU’s coach David Beaty, you did not have much of a choice that late at night.
BAYLOR - ZACH SMITH Arby’s. He’s not exactly what Baylor fans thought they were getting, just like how Arby’s is no one’s first choice. He will get the job done though; like how, at Arby’s, you can always get enough meat to satisfy your eternal despair.
K-STATE - JESSE ERTZ
Long John Silver's. As of lately, Ertz has been kind of bland with his plays. Maybe it's the apparent knee injury, but it just doesn't sound as good as it used to when it first came out. Before the entree, you make sure the Tums are nearby.
TEXAS - SAM EHLINGER
Qdoba. Ehlinger is really good, but somehow gets overshadowed by the other quarterbacks on his own team. Qdoba has more options, just like Eh-
linger does. Ehlinger's running is the three-cheese queso on top of the burrito, and his throwing is like the free guacamole you get on the burrito.
WEST VIRGINIA - WILL GRIER Burger King. Like Burger King, Grier started in Florida but ended up being everywhere. Grier can make throws all over the field, just like Burger King put restaurants all over the country. It doesn't hurt that his receivers can flame-broil the opposing secondaries.
TEXAS TECH - NIC SHIMONEK
Culver's. Really good, but isn't looked into that much because of their competitors such as Shake Shack and Whataburger. Culver's is kind of forgotten, but is probably one of the best chains out there. Grab your honey mustard and chicken tenders.

Senior Jesse Ertz prepares to take on the Charlotte 49ers at Bill Snyder Family Stadium on Sept. 9, 2017.
IOWA STATE - JOEL LANNING
Golden Corral. Lanning isn't always the starting quarterback for Iowa State, he's also a
linebacker. You look at Lanning like he's a buffet: he has a little bit of everything and has enough of him to go around all over the team.

K-State soccer team faces off against Baylor tonight JULIA JORNS
THE COLLEGIAN
The Kansas State soccer team will host Baylor at the K-State Soccer Complex tonight at 7 p.m. The Wildcats will come into this match with a 6-6-1 record overall, and a 1-3-0 record in Big 12 conference play. The Baylor Bears will come to Manhattan at 8-3-2 overall, 2-2-1 in the Big 12. K-State won their last soccer match 1-0 against the University of Kansas in the Sunflower Showdown in Lawrence. This was the first ever match between the two soccer teams. “It is an unbelievable feeling to get that first Big 12 win,” head coach Mike Dibbini said to K-State Sports. “These girls played extremely hard tonight,
h
and they deserve every bit of it right now. We stuck to the game plan and made an adjustment at half. These girls have been unreal. They are very coachable, and it just feels even better to get the first win in the Sunflower Showdown.” The Wildcats and Jayhawks ended the first half in a scoreless tie, but in the second half, freshman forward Hannah Davis scored the lone goal in the 47th minute of the match. “What was amazing about the goal was [that] we had just talked about it in the locker room at halftime,” Dibbini said to K-State Sports. “It was perfectly timed and executed.” This season, K-State has scored 14 goals, averaging one per game, along with 171 total shots, averaging 13.2 per game. Senior goalkeeper Miranda Larkin has recorded 74
saves, while opposing teams have only had 62 saves against the Wildcat offense. Baylor’s soccer team is coming hot off a 3-0 win against Texas Tech. The Baylor Bears made 11 shots in this match, with three corner kicks and four saves. This season, Baylor has recorded 74 corner kicks while only allowing 45 from their opponents. The Bears have also scored 19 goals while allowing just six. Of the 19 goals they have scored this season, 10 of those have come in the first halves of their matches. Baylor is 2-1-2 in away games so far this season. The Wildcats will host their sixth home game of the season against the Bears. K-State is 3-2-0 this season at home, with their last home game being a 1-0 loss to West Virginia University.

Sukkot Solidarity Dinner unites students, community after vandalism STEPHANIE WALLACE THE COLLEGIAN
The Sukkot Solidarity Dinner brought students, faculty and local residents to Bosco Plaza on Wednesday night in a show of solidarity with Kansas State’s Jewish students. A crowd of about 250 people gathered for the interfaith event before following the leaders of religious student organizations and community churches to the grass outside Kramer Dining Center. Participants ate around a rebuilt sukkah; it had been destroyed Oct. 6. A sukkah is a temporary dwelling used in the Jewish holy week known as Sukkot. Rabbi Neal Schuster, senior Jewish educator for the University of Kansas Hillel, spoke at the dinner. “How do we celebrate this holiday?” Schuster said. “It’s one thing to read about it in
the Bible, but it can be a little ambiguous on how we’re supposed to celebrate it.” Schuster explained Sukkot is celebrated first by the construction of sukkahs, where people may eat or sleep during the holy week. Schuster recited prayers associated with Sukkot and explained the symbolic, religious significance of items such as candles, wine and the lulav, the frond of a date palm tree bundled with willow and myrtle. The lulav is used with an etrog, a lemon-like fruit. “There is one other feature of the biblical instruction that is beautiful and fascinating,” Schuster said. “It is the only holiday on which we are commanded, we’re instructed, to rejoice. You get to experience joy on Sukkot. It’s a joyful holiday. “So, we come together,” Schuster continued. “We celebrate, we eat in the sukkah, we invite lots of guests over, we invite friends and loved ones, we invite people who

Rabbi Neal Schuster, senior Jewish educator at University of Kansas Hillel and lecturer in the KU Jewish Studies program, speaks in front of the sukkah put up behind Goodnow Hall on Oct. 11, 2017. don’t have a sukkah to go to who are in need and we make good meals. … It’s an important aspect to really rejoice on this holiday.” Jess Girdler, community
coordinator for Housing and Dining Services, said she and members of K-State Hillel, a Jewish student organization, decided to hold a public solidarity dinner in response to
the suspected vandalism that occurred Oct. 6 because it aligned with the spirit of Sukkot. “Knowing that this is a time to … gather outside in community over a meal and kind of in celebration, a response that was like a rally or a march or those kind of things just didn’t feel appropriate,” Girdler said. “It didn’t feel like it was honoring what the tradition stood for. That’s kind of why it ended up being this.” Ryan Kelly, junior in civil engineering and Student Governing Association senator, said he attended the event to help support all the K-State students who may feel marginalized. “With everything happening at our university, the university as a whole and the entire student body, including SGA, needs to come together in support and solidarity for all of the campus groups that are marginalized and feel like their voices are being at-
tacked,” Kelly said. “A lot of our students on campus, and in this case Jewish students ... feel like their existence is threatened. To me, that is absolutely unacceptable, and that inhibits student success.” Schuster said he hopes the people who may have vandalized the sukkah did not do so out of hate, because a core value of Judaism is to give people the benefit of the doubt. “There is a value in Judaism, a very important value,” Schuster said. “In Hebrew, it’s dan l’chaf z’chut, to judge in the balance of merit, what we would call ‘give the benefit of the doubt.’ That even if the benefit of the doubt is wrong ... at least engage in the exercise of imagining a positive or better read on something, to push ourselves to give the benefit of the doubt.”

THE COLLEGIAN
Widowspeak, an indie rock band from the Brooklyn borough of New York City, released their fifth studio album, “Expect the Best,” on Aug. 25. This is the band’s first release since their 2015 album, “All Yours.” With the potentially added

stress to produce another successful album, I can recognize a change of style in this album. This works for Widowspeak as a way of not being pigeonholed to reproduce the same sound for the sake of success. “Expect the Best” is the perfect melancholic autumn album to ground my angsty self. They have created a massive and warm sound with the use of multiple guitars and well-or-

chestrated drums that take you deep into their songs. Widowspeak has the perfect secret weapon: lead singer Molly Hamilton. She gives off a wonderful, less-overrated version of Lana Del Rey’s vocals that are very relaxed and sensual. The theme of the album is introduced in the second song, “When I Tried.” It starts with an ‘80s-sounding guitar riff that
sits on top of the song very well, just like Hamilton’s voice. Then that massive sound with the multiple guitars and prominent drums takes over in between the catchy counter sounding riff. It regresses back to the other theme that is carried through this album, which is melancholy. That is put front and center in the lyrics of this song, and is expressed so well through Hamilton’s singing:
“Tried to do some work today / Tried to go out and play / Got the feeling to talk / Then I had nothing to say.” The album then goes into my second favorite song, “Dog.” This song starts strong with a distinct guitar opening, but somehow takes this deep sound and makes it slightly optimistic when the chorus hits and Hamilton sings, “I wanna stay, I wanna stay.”
It breaks up the very mundane sound of the song, and without Hamilton they would not be able to successfully have that sound without it bleeding into the background. It makes you really look forward to the chorus and keeps you involved.

The app also provides customers with a chat room for runner-customer communication. While JoyRun can pick up from any restaurant, it
gets a percentage of the order amount when it has a partnership with a restaurant, essentially acting as its delivery service. One of the downsides that JoyRun faces is that glitches
are common in the app’s chat room interface. Whether you want something from one of the big chains or from a local restaurant here in town, online food delivery has something for you.
TCU | K-State to face tough opponent continued from page
6
Fifth-year senior quarterback Kenny Hill, a transfer from Texas A&M, is incredible. Hill is accurate, smart and mobile. He makes good choices when he checks down, and he knows when to pull the ball down and scramble.
Hill has a huge weapon on offense in sophomore running back Darius Anderson. Anderson is fourth in the Big 12 conference in both average rushing yards per game with 93, and total touchdowns with six. He will also likely be a target for many screen passes. K-State will need to key
in on Anderson and hold him to less than 93 yards to win. K-State should also play a “press coverage” on TCU’s receivers, lining up closer to the line of scrimmage to negate shorter passes. This will be a tough one for the Wildcats. My prediction: TCU wins 31-14.

Collegian Media Group Congratulates Pete Souza ’06 on receiving the Alumni Excellence Award.
Pete Souza, who received an M.S. in mass communications from the Miller School, served as chief White House photographer for President Obama and White House photographer for President Reagan. At K-State he was a photographer for the Collegian and the Royal Purple. He also worked as the national photographer for the Chicago Tribune, a freelancer for National Geographic, and after 9/11 he was among the first journalists to cover the fall of Kabul, Afghanistan, after crossing the Hindu Kush mountains by horseback in three feet of snow. Tonight he will receive the Alumni Excellence Award, in its inaugural year, which recognizes an alumna or alumnus whose career, service and achievements exemplify the spirit, values and excellence of the university.
