Hot sauce spokesman, chef speaks at the Union Student organization continues to turn off campus lights, saves money By Max Filby Reporter

S

ome students might need a night light after the sun goes down, but Kaitlyn Bailey and Allie Gehres are not afraid of the dark. Bailey and Gehres, along with the organization Friday Night Lights, saved the University approximately $14,000 Fall semester by turning off lights in academic buildings every Friday. Despite the group’s savings, it could be replaced by motion sensor lighting next week. The first light sensors will be put in East Hall and then 30 other campus buildings. “We’ve been trying to push for that idea for a while,” Bailey said. “I love [Friday Night Lights], but I’m sure we’ll find some other way to create the same impact.” The new light motion sensors will save the University around $5 million over the next three to four years. The plans to install motion sensor lighting is a part of a Universitywide project called the Energy Control Management project. Some new buildings like the Stroh Center will have programmed lighting that will turn on and off according to schedules. Installing light sensors will occur during phase two of the ECM project; heating, ventilation and air conditioning systems in buildings will be replaced later this year.

Until the installation, Bailey, Gehres and the Friday Night Lights group will continue switching off lights for the weekend. “As long as they don’t tear down all of the older buildings, there’s always lights that will probably need to be turned off,” Gehres said. Since the 2009 school year, Friday Night Lights has met every Friday night around 6:30 p.m. in the Union. The organization is completely student run, with the exception of Nick Hennessy, group advisor and the University’s sustainabilty coordinator. Hennessy provides materials such as clipboards and “power down” stickers for group members to put on light switches. “I’ve tried to nurture it as much as I can,” said Nick Hennessy. “But they’re pretty self sufficient. They haven’t missed a single time; it’s pretty remarkable.” Hennessy also helps to estimate the amount of money Friday Night Lights saves the University each semester. So far, Hennessy estimates the group has saved about $826 per week this semester. “It’s a really rewarding feeling to know that,” Gehres said. “Turning one light switch off can make a difference in the worlds of energy use.” Hennessy and volunteers for

Celebrity chef Kevin Roberts, also known as the “Food Dude,” gave a presentation at the Bowling Greenery in the Union on Wednesday night. The event was hosted by the University Activities Organization. Roberts is the host of TLC’s BBQ Pitmasters, owns four restaurants and is the spokesperson for Frank’s RedHot sauce. At the event, Roberts gave tips for eating healthy while telling stories of how he started cooking. Roberts spoke about foods to avoid in college, such as cheese, and promoted hot sauce because

of its zero calorie amount. Throughout the presentation, UAO members passed out cookbooks and bottles of sauce that Roberts created for Frank’s RedHot. Roberts created a sauce called Sweet Heat and one that has not yet been released called Sweet Chili. Before heading to the University, Roberts also cooked chicken wings at this year’s Super Bowl in Dallas, Texas. “I made about 40,000 of my famous wings and got to watch Lil Wayne

GRAFTON, Ohio (AP) — Two corrections officers at the Grafton Correctional Institution were taken to EMH Regional Medical Center following an attack by an inmate this morning. Ohio State Highway Patrol Sgt. Richard Grayber said the attack remains under investigation but was able to say an inmate attacked one guard with a weapon and another guard was hurt when he tried to intervene. Grayber would not give the identity of the officers, the inmate, or say what kind of weapon was used. He did say the inmate is a 66-year-old inmate from Cuyahoga County serving time for a murder charge. The first corrections officer attacked was later taken to MetroHealth Medical Center by ambulance with non-life threatening injuries. The other corrections officer has been treated and released.

TOLEDO (AP) —Toledo Raceway Park will remain open and operating through at least the end of 2011, and would be shut down and relocated to Youngstown if the state approves video slot machines, The Blade has learned. Penn National Gaming Inc. is expected to announce Thursday that it plans to relocate to a 186-acre site near Youngstown, a source close to the company said, but that plan is contingent on getting approval for video slots. The source also confirmed a report based in Wyomissing, Pa. plans to invest $200 million to build a new thoroughbred horse racing track on the grounds of a former Delphi Corp. automotive plant in north Dayton — also only if the state allows it to install video game slots. Penn National will address the Ohio State Racing Commission on Thursday.

SPRINGFIELD, Ohio (AP)— The family of Lisa Straub on Wednesday set up a fund at Fifth Third Bank where donations may be made toward a reward for information leading to the arrest of the people responsible for the murder of her and her boyfriend. Miss Straub, 20, and Johnny S. Clarke, 21, were found asphyxiated with plastic bags over their heads in the Straubs' Longacre Lane home in Springfield Township Jan. 31. Investigators say they believe the two were killed in a robbery attempt at the home. Straub family spokesman Jim Verbosky, Miss Straub's uncle, said her funeral was held Wednesday morning at St. Patrick of Heatherdowns Church. He said a number of people have contacted the family wanting to make donations toward a reward in the case, so the family has set up the “Lisa Straub Benefit Fund.” Donations may be made at any Fifth Third Bank branch.

CINCINNATI (AP) — A federal jury in Cincinnati has found a township official not guilty of lying under oath in the 2009 trial of a businessman convicted of misleading lenders to get millions of dollars in loans. The jury on Wednesday acquitted West Chester Township Trustee George Lang not guilty of perjury in Orlando Carter's trial. Carter owned the former Dynus Corp. telecommunications company. Prosecutors said Carter misled banks about business deals involving Butler County in southwest Ohio. Prosecutors accused Lang of lying when he testified that he didn't know that a man he paid $100,000 for what the government alleged were kickbacks was a full-time Dynus employee. Prosecutors say Lang worked as a lobbyist to help Dynus gain new business for a fiber-optics network with Butler County.

COLUMBUS (AP) — Ohio Attorney General Mike DeWine has tapped a prosecutor from a southern Ohio county plagued by prescription drug abuse to lead the state's efforts to combat the problem. Adams County Prosecutor Aaron Haslam says in six years as a prosecutor he's handled more homicides, most related to drugs, than his predecessors in the previous two decades. DeWine says the 32-yearold Haslam will coordinate the state's anti-prescription drug abuse efforts with local police and prosecutors. DeWine says he's also hiring two additional assistant attorneys general to specialize in prosecuting crimes related to the abuse. Haslam will make $95,000 a year as co-unit coordinator of the office's Special Prosecutions Unit.

Consider for a moment the following “Let’s Make a Deal” scenario: It is the day of college graduation, and you are offered an immediate position for a job. The work is not specified, but with the position comes an annual salary of $400,000 as well as general and entertainment expense accounts. Also, you will receive free airfare, personal assistants, and a reliable pension upon retirement. Without hesitating, the offer is accepted. The cap and gown is swapped for a business suit. Take a ride in Air Force One, because behind door number two is the position of President of the United States. It is unfathomable why anyone would wish for such a position of power, and thankfully some people do. As for me, leave me out of it. As current president and recent recipient of the Foundation for Sarcasm’s awardfor“LeastControversial American” Barack Obama put it, “the worst part of the job...I’ve got a jacket on on

need maybe just a few hours or even minutes of the day to relax and take in the situation around you, you might want to reconsider. Are you prepared to compare the significance of a trillion-dollar economy collapse versus eating meal-plan Doritos while watching Jersey Shore? Obama also remarked during his interview before the Super Bowl that he isn’t able to have spontaneous conversation with folks. Aside from being too busy fighting crime, the president doesn’t get to have idle conversation in elevators about the weather and cannot complain about American Idol being too boring without Simon Cowell to his co-workers. News stations would have a field day. The president doesn’t get to commit to going to bed, then three hours later wonder how many YouTube videos he just sifted through. No coloring-in the space inside letters and numbers on official documents at United Nations meetings, no thinking all day Wednesday that it’s Tuesday, and no jaywalking across the street to make it to McDonalds before it closes. Living a life where every action is augmented to the point of exhaustion on the world’s stage is a haunting

premise. While this applies to many celebrities as well, think of context. An actress has a lapse in judgment and we scowl her for ruining her life. The president has a lapse in judgment, or in some cases doesn’t and merely has ideological differences, and we scowl him for supposedly ruining everyone’s life but his. A magazine clipping is hardly comparable to a hypothetical nationwide protest. It is hardly a consolation to lead a poll of presidential candidates Americans would most like to have a beer with. Especially so if the beer came in the clubhouse after a round of golf those Americans also think the president is too official to play in the first place. If Obama or any other presidential hopeful for 2012 came to Bowling Green to campaign, I myself may not be able to have a drink with them, but I would at least invite them for a walk around campus or, heaven forbid, a round of golf. At the very least, I would shake their hand for vying for a position I will never be crazy enough to accept.

Parking lots to create more problems for students Closing of Lot 12 to students raise concerns By Dylan Corp Columnist

If you ask any student on campus what they dislike most about BGSU, you can be guaranteed one word will always come up: Parking. I tend to agree. This is why I was not surprised when I picked up the BG News earlier this week and discovered that every person parking in Lot 12, the campuses largest lot, is being forced to park elsewhere on President’s Day or face consequences. Before I go on, let me be clear: on-campus residents hate Lot 12. I lived in Kreischer last year, far and above the closest residence hall to the parking lot, and loathed every trip to it. Even the shuttle does not guarantee a walking trip to your car. It doesn’t help that the lot is constructed to extend away from campus, and not along it, so if you come back relatively late on Sunday you have to park way out in the boonies just to find the closest open spot. The only reason I put up with Lot 12 is that I’m aware that thousands of cars being parked permanently in one place are not necessarily on the top priority list to park close to campus. Commuters, for instance have to park and leave every day. So at least parking has been kind to commuters, right? Oh, wait. At the beginning of this year, there was a large uproar about commuter parking. The university, in their infinite wisdom, decided to replace a large commuter lot for a new residence hall. This was when commuters already complained about few commuter options being available, especially close ones. To call the commuter lot by Offenhauer, replaced by Falcon Heights, close to campus, at least to classes, is a joke. But the sad truth of the matter is that it was one of the closest lots commuters had. They had no say, no power to change a thing. Just a notice and a threat to stop parking there. Now the same disregard is happening to on-campus students.

It is not that physically moving one’s car is so difficult. It is the principle of the matter. I can’t decide which part irritates me more. The fact that they only give two weeks for all two thousand plus students to find out about it, the fact that they only give about two days to move out and then two more to move back, or the fact that despite all these things they still threaten to tow cars at the owner’s expense. They say that they aren’t trying to resort to that. I am not trying to say they are. I’m saying they don’t care. Put it in perspective. With over two-thousand students parking in Lot 12, each paying at least a hundred dollars for a parking pass, we are giving the University well over $200,000. Don’t we deserve a bit more respect? Don’t we deserve to be cared about? Any good business strives to care for its customers. The University reminds us in many ways it is a business. Yet we are being taken advantage of. We are unimportant. Why? Because we are already giving them our money. The problem is we already go here. President’s Day will see many prospective students arriving on campus, meaning much more prospective income. Better to make parking make sense to outsiders for one day then to show them the sad reality of day to day parking. I believe they call that the bait and switch. The university is not concerned with the concerns of the student. It implements policies it knows will be unpopular with students and does them anyway. It clearly demonstrates how little the satisfaction of the students it serves actually means to them. All we can do in return is clearly demonstrate how little they mean to us. University parking, thanks for nothing. I’m not a commuter, I don’t park in Lot 12, but I’m sure you’ll find some way in the future to treat me unfairly. It’s what you do best.

Freshmen, AYA Social Studies,

Presidental position can be undesired Super Bowl Sunday.” Every aspect of living as the president is absurdly scrutinized. We could start with personality: A significant portion of American citizens find Obama too be too intelligent and out-of-touch with the average American, having come from an Ivy League background. I suppose if Barack also partook in regular, recreational activities, people would see he’s just a regular — wait, actually he was criticized heavily for golfing during the long summer months of the oil spill crisis. Imagine a life where for four or eight years, immense pressure is placed upon your commitment to millions and millions of people, countless causes and organizations, and unending speeches and appearances. Also, the slightest use of the word “cut” affects the lives of thousands, maybe millions of Americans, mostly negatively. Throw in several wars, threats of terrorism, intertwining relationships between allies, enemies, and international organizations, a wife and kids, a struggling economy and even more struggling baseball team, and suddenly you are starring in your own live-action reality show.

BOISE, Idaho — Federal agents caught up with a fugitive wanted for trying to kill a New England mob boss more than a decade ago, arresting him at his rural Idaho home where they seized dozens of guns and $15,000, authorities said Wednesday. Dressed in a yellow jumpsuit and with his hands cuffed behind his back, the man sat at a table in a federal courtroom in Boise and spoke calmly to the judge. “My name is Enrico M. Ponzo,” he said. After the judge read a long list of charges against him, Ponzo replied: “Not guilty, your honor.” Ponzo, 42, appeared relaxed during his 40-minute court appearance, at times smiling at a handful of friends nearby and exchanging laughs with his attorney. But the big questions remained unanswered: If he is the mobster, how did he manage to evade capture for so long and how did the Boston native blend in so well into the agriculture towns in southwest Idaho? —Mitchell Schmidt (AP)

YONKERS, N.Y. (AP) — A woman who worked for a New York public library has been accused of stealing more than $160,000, including fines for overdue books. The Westchester County district attorney says 53year-old Margo Reed was arraigned Wednesday in Yonkers City Court on a charge of grand larceny. Reed was responsible for collecting overdue fines and other revenue from the library’s three branches and depositing the money. The district attorney says that on several occasions from 2004 to 2010, Reed took some of the money and altered records to cover the theft. Reed was represented by Legal Aid, which hasn’t returned a telephone call seeking comment. Reed could be sentenced to five to 15 years in prison if convic ted.

The Delaware County medical examiner has identified the victim as 20-year-old Claudia Seye Aderotimi of London. She died at a hospital Monday after suffering from chest pains and breathing trouble. The cause of death has been listed as undetermined, pending further studies. Philadelphia police said they issued a search warrant at the Bergen County, N.J., home of a woman they believe organized the appointment. Police said the woman was questioned and unspecified evidence was seized from the residence but she was not arrested.

UNION CITY, N.J. (AP) — New Jersey Gov. Chris Christie is taking credit for a new proposal to build a second commuter rail tunnel under the Hudson River after he killed a similar project already under way. At a town hall meeting Wednesday in Union City, Christie said his decision in October to cancel the nation’s most expensive public works project spurred a far better plan. On Monday, Amtrak and New Jersey’s two U.S. senators announced a new plan for the rail link to New York City that will spread the cost around. Christie says the new plan is a better deal for New Jersey and that he’ll consider it. He had previously cited concerns about New Jersey being on the hook for cost overruns. The new project is estimated to cost $13.5 billion.

SCRANTON, Pa. (AP) — A developer who helped build two juvenile detention facilities says a former northeastern Pennsylvania judge pressured him to pay more than a half-million dollars in kickbacks. Robert Powell is testifying in the trial of former Luzerne County Judge Mark Ciavarella (shiv-uh-REL’-uh). He said Wednesday that Ciavarella and former county President Judge Michael Conahan summoned him to the courthouse in 2003 and demanded to be paid.

HONOLULU — Relatives of those who died when a Navy submarine rammed into a Japanese fishing vessel are expected to attend a service remembering the nine men and boys killed exactly a decade ago. The Japanese families are expected to observe a moment of silence at 1:43 p.m. Wednesday — the time when the USS Greeneville surfaced beneath and rammed the Ehime Maru on Feb. 9, 2001, off Oahu. The ceremony will be held at the Ehime Maru Memorial at a park near downtown Honolulu overlooking the Pacific. Officials from Japan’s Ehime prefecture and the city of Uwajima were scheduled to speak and lay wreaths. Also expected at the ceremony were Hawaii Gov. Neil Abercrombie and a senior officer from the U.S. Pacific Fleet. A total of 35 students and instructors were onboard the vessel from Uwajima Fisheries High School. —Jaymes Song (AP)

Rhode Island and Maryland push for gay marriage PROVIDENCE, R.I. (AP) — Lawmakers in Rhode Island and Maryland are taking up bills to legalize gay marriage, advocates in New York are making a renewed push and opponents are fighting for constitutional bans in Indiana and Wyoming and to re-impose bans in Iowa and Hampshire. The flurry of activity nationwide has activists on both sides of the gay marriage debate encouraged that 2011 will be a year of gains for them.

“There is so much happening that it is a challenge even for the most ardent marriageequality supporters to keep track of,” said Molly McKay, media director of Marriage Equality, a national group that favors same-sex marriage. “This is a national fight being fought out on various local grounds.

Former girlfriend of Anheuser-Busch CEO dies of oxycodone overdose Jim Salter The Associated Press

ST. LOUIS (AP) — The girlfriend of former AnheuserBusch CEO August Busch IV died at his home after accidentally overdosing on the painkiller Oxycodone, the St. Louis County medical examiner said Wednesday. Adrienne Martin, 27, of St. Charles, was found dead on the morning of Dec. 19 at Busch’s sprawling estate in suburban St. Louis after spending the night at his home. He has

said he woke up around 11 a.m. and tried to awaken Martin, but couldn’t. St. Louis County forensics administrator Suzanne McCune said the full report from Martin’s toxicology exam wouldn’t be released until the prosecuting attorney’s investigation is complete. She would not say if any other drugs were found in Martin’s system. It wasn’t immediately clear if the finding could result in any criminal charges. Busch’s attorney, Art Margulis, did not

immediately return messages seeking comment. A spokesman for St. Louis County prosecutor Bob McCulloch said only that an investigation continues. Oxycodone is used to relieve moderate to severe pain, according to the National Institutes of Health. It is in a class of medications called opiate (narcotic) analgesics and works by changing the way the brain and nervous system respond to pain. It is commonly known by its brand name, OxyContin.

Gay marriage is legal in a handful of states besides Massachusetts: Connecticut, Vermont, New Hampshire and Iowa, as well as in the District of Columbia. In California, supporters of gay marriage are mounting a challenge in the 9th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals to Proposition 8, which banned gay marriage there after voters approved it in 2008. On the other side, 30 states have constitutional amendments banning gay marriages.

The Drug Enforcement Administration says abuse of Oxycodone has increased markedly in recent years. Busch, 46, was the last in a long line of members of his family to head the iconic brewery, maker of Budweiser, Bud Light, Michelob, Busch and other beers. Despite his efforts to ward off a takeover, Anheuser-Busch Cos. Inc. was sold to Belgian brewer InBev in 2008, two years after Busch was named chief executive officer upon his father’s retirement.

Falcons travel to IPFW for first of seven on road By Paul Barney Sports Editor

When BG tennis coach Penny Dean stepped off the court of the Perrysburg Tennis Center on Sunday after the Falcons defeated Cincinnati 5-2, it quickly hit her when the official told her, “See you in April.” Friday, BG will head to IPFW for what is the first of seven straight road matches. After their match with the Mastadons, the Falcons will see stops in Colorado, Michigan, New York and Ohio, before returning to their home court April 1 against Miami. BG is 5-2 this season and has already had four matches on the road. “We’re surviving being road warriors,” said coach Penny Dean. “We’re playing on different courts week in and week out.”

While the Falcons are having to adjust to different fan support and playing surfaces, Dean said the team is handling it very well and only makes them stronger when they are home. BG is 2-0 at home this season, including a 7-0 win against Cleveland State last month. The Falcons have shutout their opponent three times and have won five of their last six matches, and despite being shutout at Michigan State last weekend, Dean likes the way the team is gelling. “I like our work ethic,” she said. “The motivation is good.” A big part of the Falcons’ success this season has come on the play of their lone senior, Christine Chiricosta. Two weeks ago, Chiricosta became BG’s all-time leader in combined wins, and Sunday won at both singles and doubles to move closer

to the top of those lists as well.

She is three singles wins away from surpassing the record of 81, which was set by former teammate Stefanie Menoff (2006-09). Dean said Chiricosta has grown every match, but what has impressed Dean hasn’t been the records, but that her star senior has been able to balance both tennis and student teaching — which has Chiricosta unable to practice with the team much. “She’s shown great leadership,” Dean said. “She’s able to balance everything.” Chiricosta and her teammates take on IPFW for the first time BG NEWS FILE PHOTO Friday, but Dean said she expects a EYES ON THE BALL: Christine Chiricosta takes a swing during a singles match last spring. “really tight match” with them.

BG defense disrupts Cardinals’ offense after strong start By Sean Shapiro Senior Reporter

For the first couple of minutes in BG’s 65-64 victory against Ball State, it looked like the Cardinals couldn’t miss. Connecting on their first six shots from the field, including three 3-pointers, the Cardinals jumped out to an early 10-point lead, but couldn’t hold it as they quickly lost the shooting touch. Following the perfect start to

the game, Ball State finished the half with a dismal 4-for-22 from the field, including missing all eight 3-point attempts.

play is better, and I think that our defensive zone coverage is better.” At the center of this improvement is the play of the goalies. While Nick Eno has seen a slight improvement in his goals-against average (3.30 in 2009-10 to 3.07 this season), his save percentage has gone down and his recent struggles have lost him a share of the starting job. Conversely, Andrew Hammond has blossomed with a year of experience in the CCHA. He has seen his goals-against average fall to 2.74 this

season (after it was 4.30 last year) and his save percent increase from .880 in 2009-10 to .909 this season. “I just know what college hockey is about a little bit more and a lot of it is I know what I have to do to make myself successful,” Hammond said. “Those are things that I have been applying to my game, whether it is in practice or a game.” The improved defense has not translated to more wins, however, because of the team’s lack of scoring.

“We’ve given up some games that we’ve been in just because of how (the goalies) have played,” captain David Solway said. “If we had those extra one or two goals it would take even more off of what they have to do for us every night.”

Get to know the Falcons: BG gymnast Dawn Christman for herself. Her hard work really pays off when we go to compete, she scores so well.”

Compiled by Ryan Sanner Reporter

Dawn Christman is a junior on the Falcon gymnastics team with the all-around as her event. She was named Papa John’s Athlete of the Week following the Falcons’ win against IllinoisChicago in early January. She finished first in the allaround with a career-best score of 38.425. At the meet she finished first on the floor (9.775), second on vault (9.775), third on beam (9.425) and sixth on bars (9.450). On Sunday, she scored a 9.05 in the vault against Kent State. Dawn is recovering from an injury and is determined to be back at full strength soon. “Dawn is a very quiet person, and is the absolute role model in terms of hard work,” said coach Kerrie Beach. “She is very focused on her goals both in and outside the gym. “She is such a perfectionist that sometimes I have to say it’s okay not to be perfect today, but good that you are striving to be perfect every time. She is a leader by example, because she is working hard and has such a high standard

NOTES From Page 6 earlier, Eastern Michigan … it’s been a challenge for us defensively to get off to a good start,” Orr said. “We change up our defenses, we trapped in different areas and tonight it worked.” In addition to changing the defensive strategy, a spark from the Falcon bench proved to be a key turning point as Orr made four substitutions in the first four minutes. “The other team just stepped to us before we stepped to them; our subs came in and lifted the way we played the game,” A’uston Calhoun said. “We then had to keep it up.” Ball State finished with a 23-for-56 effort from the field, including 5-for-19 from 3-point land.

Starting lineup changes

Inserting Dee Brown in the starting lineup, BG coach Louis used his 10th different combination of starters in 24 games this season. After starting the season with six different starting lineups in seven games, it seemed Orr had become content with the combination of Joe Jakubowski, Luke Kraus, Scott Thomas, Calhoun and Torian Oglesby — a group he started the past six games.

Prior to Calhoun’s clutch baskets and Ball State’s near comeback, both teams struggled shooting the ball, as neither team shot above 45 percent. While Ball State’s shooting troubles have been well documented this season — the Cardinals have one of the worst 3-point shooting percentages in the conference — the Falcon zone defense added to their problems, adjusting throughout and limiting the number of open shots. “Our defense… I thought we kept them off balance, and just disrupted them enough,” Orr said.

Three decades later, medical innovations have made HIV treatable, but infections remain high as researchers continue searching for cure By Becky Tener Managing Editor

Thirty years ago, an AIDS diagnosis was a death sentence, but through awareness and medical innovations, the onset of AIDS can be prolonged and HIV can be controlled. For one University student living with HIV, the stigma is the final hurdle in living a normal life. Junior Nate, whose name has been changed for privacy reasons, has been HIV positive for almost two years. “I couldn’t imagine living back [in the ‘80s]… with a scarlet A on me,” Nate said. His story is different from many people living with HIV. He said his family and friends have been supportive and have not turned their backs on him. He said he knows others who aren’t as lucky. “I don’t have to worry about that, and I think it’s really cool,” he said. “They all know it’s not a huge deal unless I’m bleeding all over them.”

Where We Are Betsy Bunner, AIDS education director at the University, said too many Americans see AIDS as a problem only in other countries, but she said it’s still a problem in the United States, with 56,000 new HIV infections each year. In Wood County, there have been more than 80 cases since 1981. “That, to me, is unacceptable,” Bunner said. “We should have gotten a little further along at this point as far as prevention, and that’s frustrating.” When AIDS was first recognized in 1981, researchers hoped for a vaccine such as the one they discovered for polio and smallpox. “They didn’t realize that this virus was as tricky and complicated as it was … or that it would change or mutate the way it does,” Bunner said. “The virus affects our immune system and that’s the beauty of it.”

from a man he “hooked up” with in March 2009. “I woke up one morning and there was no wrapper on the floor, but I didn’t really think anything of it,” he said. A month later, Nate was seriously ill; doctors thought he had leukemia but later ruled that out. “They just said I was sick and maybe I should get an HIV test. I was like ‘OK, whatever’ … but I was fine after that,” he said. A few months later, Nate got a text message from the man he had slept with. “It said, ‘I tested positive and you should get tested too,’” Nate said. “And I called [the doctor] and begged to get a test that day. I was like ‘He tested positive and we had unprotected sex, so this needs to happen today or I’m going to freak out.’” Nate said he received a test and 15 minutes later he knew he was HIV positive. “From then on, I was a mess,” he The Diagnosis Nate said he contracted the virus said. “I told close friends because I

needed someone to tell, and I knew I could trust them. I called my mom and she told me she had to go. I think she cried for a little bit and called me after she got herself together.” Nate said he never thought it would happen to him. The ‘80s Bunner said that 30 years ago an AIDS diagnosis came with a certain stigma because it was a sexually transmitted disease that affected primarily gay men, prostitutes and intravenous-drug users. “The stigma was originally because of what people thought of those groups. They were a throwaway population in people’s minds,” she said. “ Gay men were thought to have brought it on themselves. People thought there was a problem with their behavior, and it was considered God’s punishment, when in reality they were just being fully human. Our sexuality is what makes us fully human.” Bunner said people were “scared

to death” to be around people living with HIV. Many of them were forced to eat off paper plates, and some were denied travel on planes. A swimming pool was even drained after an HIV positive person was in it. Nate said, at first, his dad was scared to drink and eat after him. Today Today, Bunner said, individuals who are living with HIV can do exactly that — live. She said medication has less toxicity than in the past, and patients don’t have to take it as often. “Medications have really turned this disease into a chronic disease where it used to be an acute disease,” she said.

Diversity of long-term illnesses affect students The BG News Staff

Some of the most prevalent chronic diseases in the United States include heart disease, cancer, diabetes, stroke and arthritis, according to the Center for Disease Control’s website. But chronic illnesses also include asthma and obesity. Barb Hoffman, associate director of Clinical Services at the University Health Center, said while most students on campus are healthy, it might be surprising to some just how many do have an illness considered chronic. She said she has seen students on campus with diabetes, cystic fibrosis, HIV, arthritis, Crohn’s disease and cancer as well as asthma and depression. “[And] there could be others we don’t know about,� Hoffman said.

UNIVERSITY POLICIES While in most cases students with chronic illnesses work individually with their professors if class attendance, assignments or other issues might become a problem, Hoffman said there are some procedures for ill students.

HANNAH SPARLING | THE BG NEWS

HEALTH: Freshman Gillian Karhoff-Schumaker was diagnosed with cystic fibrosis when she was 10 months old. Now, she is a social-work major at the University.

1. If a student has to miss more than three classes for a medical reason, the Health Center will ask the student for permission to contact the Dean of Students to let the faculty member know the student will be absent. 2. If a student needs to withdraw from the University for a medical reason, it will not negatively affect GPA standing. 3. If a student needs special living features (like air conditioning), the Health Center will contact Residence Life to move the student if needed.

Freshman faces off against terminal illness

But for the most part, Hoffman said, the academic policy for students with chronic illnesses is evaluated on a case-to-case basis based on the student’s needs.

When Gillian KarhoffSchumaker was little, her parents knew something was wrong. Gillian had pneumonia three times as a baby, and she was sick more often than not. By the time her daughter was about 10 months old, Jill Schumaker said, she looked like the malnourished babies often seen in news photos, with a huge stomach and tiny arms and legs. Her parents took her to the hospital where, after about a week of tests, Gillian was diagnosed with cystic fibrosis. CF is a hereditary disease caused by a defective gene, accordingtotheU.S.National Library of Medicine’s website. The gene causes mucus to build up in the lungs and pancreas, which results in lung infections and digestive problems. CF is chronic and terminal; the average life expectancy for patients is about 35 years, the website states. Even though her disease is terminal, Gillian, now a

10th annual speaker. While researchers are making strides in psychological and biological fields, the University is still not known for its research. This could be due to University research being basic rather than clinical, unlike medical-based schools such as Ohio State University and the University of Toledo, Cromwell said. “We don’t have a lot of faculty that are explicitly and directly interested in study of specific diseases and treatments and new cures,� Cromwell said. “The majority of our faculty are interested in basic neurological functions and processes related to emotion.� But the lack of clini-

cal research does not mean a lack of results, and Cromwell is hopeful the researchers’ findings will have a major impact on the neuroscience field. “Research [at the University] has implications for understanding chronic disease,� he said. As Goberman continues his study of Parkinson’s sufferers, his favorite aspect of research remains interacting with and affecting his participants’ lives, he said. And he sees no end to his potential findings. “I don’t see a stopping point,� he said. “People are still affected by the disease so we can help them from just looking at medication to looking at the fluctuations they go through throughout their day and their lives.�

she had CF; it has always been a part of her life. She knew she was different than other kids growing up, not everyone had to do breathing treatments or take pills when they ate. But for her it was normal. She said the disease is only painful sometimes, such as when she runs or when excess mucus builds up in her lungs. But she can feel it all the time. She often wonders what it would be like to be completely healthy, to take a normal breath. For Gillian, one of the worst parts about being sick is not being able to control her future. She can take care of her body, exercise and do her breathing treatments every day, but she’ll still have CF. “No matter what I do, I can’t stop the disease,� she said. “That’s the hardest part.� Gillian believes in God and heaven, so for her, it’s not dying that is scary but leaving people behind — her parents, her friends, her boyfriend, her two little brothers, Noah, 7, and Lee, 6. “I guess that’s where my faith comes in,� she said.

Our eyes are always the same size from birth, but our nose and ears never stop growing.

“It’s in God’s hands. It’s not something you can change. “I would say me having CF is the basis of my faith. That’s why I have to have so much faith. Because if I just believed that this was some crappy disease that I was given for no reason at all, I think I would be pretty miserable.� Christian Mocek, a freshman at University of Notre Dame, met Gillian about 7 months ago during a youth event hosted by the Catholic Diocese of Toledo. Shortly after, the two went on their first date to the Toledo Zoo and have been together since. When Mocek thinks of Gillian, he doesn’t think about CF. It’s a part of her, he said, but it doesn’t define her. He said that for the most part, CF has little effect on their relationship. “I mean, obviously it’s something that’s always there,� he said. “But it doesn’t take away from our relationship. If anything it makes us better. It makes us closer.�

19-year-old freshman at the University, said she doesn’t see it as a death sentence. Researchers are testing new drugs all the time, and she is hopeful for a cure. “I don’t know if there is an exciting time to have a terminal illness, but now is it,� she said. “That’s what they’re saying.� Apart from breathing treatments two or three times a day to clear her lungs and going to the doctor every other month, Gillian lives like any other 19-yearold would. Along with her coursework, she spends her time taking photos, painting, drawing, reading and attending St. Thomas More, a Catholic church near campus. She also runs about twice a week — even though she hates it — to keep her lungs healthy. “I have all these dreams of getting married and having a family, and I feel if I do whatever I can to keep my lungs healthy, I will be able to reach those dreams,� she said.

AIDS From Page 8 to child; now, less than 2 percent of newborns will contract the virus in the United States. But Nate said his journey of living HIV positive hasn’t always been simple. He went back to school in the fall of 2009 but withdrew after a couple of months because he said he had a lot of things on his mind. He was prescribed a “cocktail” of medications, which can differ for each individual patient. Nate was allergic to his initial medication, and it took three months to get him on a regimen that worked. With medication, HIV positive people like Nate can keep the virus from spreading and live normal lives. Once he was on the right medication, Nate said, he began to handle his situation better. “I used to be a hot mess, but I’ve learned that if I pop my pills once a day everything’s gravy,” he said. “I hardly even think about it unless it’s when I’m taking my pills.” Nate said he is tired a lot because his body is fighting a virus 24/7, but that is something he can deal with. Getting Tested Bunner said in the past people were afraid of HIV, but now “it’s the polar opposite.” “What we have now is almost apathy … it has gone underground,” she said “We saw it, back then, because we saw people dying. In the U.S.,

since we don’t see the deaths happening, we don’t see the pandemic either.” The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention projects more than 1 million people in the U.S. are HIV positive. Eric Teske, graduate assistant for the Student Wellness Connection, works on HIV and AIDS education and preventative measures for the University. “[Education] is important because HIV is a life or death issue … untreated it’s deadly, and that raises the stakes, especially because it’s preventable. There is no reason to have to get it,” he said. “Sometimes it’s out of sight, out of mind, but really it hasn’t gone away.” Teske said individuals knowing their status is the most important step to prevention. “You can have an impact on this disease as long as students stay safe and get tested,” he said. “Students shouldn’t be afraid of getting tested. It does not mean you’re gay or that you do drugs. Getting over that stigma is what gets people to open up and talk about it,” he said. Teske said students are encouraged to get tested every three months because of the three-month window period it takes for the virus to be detected. He said students and community members can get free HIV tests on Fridays from 9:30 a.m. to 3:30 p.m. in the Student Recreation Center. He said the

Not that whatever happens is out that cystic fibrosis is going of our control. Her time is to just magically disappear, when God wants to take her, but that the Lord will help so our goal is just to live life you through it.” CF patients carry speand do the best we can.” Jill Schumaker, too, avoids cific germs on their lungs focusing on the 35-year lifes- that, even when they’re not pan for most CF patients. sick, never completely disInstead, she works on help- appear.

causes frequent coughing, making it easier for those germs to spread from one patient to another. Because of this, people with CF are not encouraged to meet in person. So, Gillian finds community through a website called CysticLife. She also started her own blog about a year ago: gillianlives.blogspot.com. On her homepage, Gillian describes her philosophy on living with a disease: “I’m a 19-year-old blessed with a deep love for God and life and all that entails. I also happen to have cystic fibrosis. This is how I live.”

The Future Prevention methods and medication discoveries have changed the face of HIV, Bunner said, but it is still a serious global problem. She said the stigma of HIV and AIDS is what keeps people from being tested or telling their partners because of the fear of how they’ll be treated. “Until that changes, people will still be at risk for HIV because of people who aren’t able to talk about it.
