Latinos can feel unheard by politicians

By Michele Mathis Managing Editor With the upcoming national election gaining media attention every week, conversations about political diversity issues are growing on campus.

The Office of Multicultural Affairs continued their Ethnic Student Center Dialogue Monday evening by dissecting how the Latino community is affected by

their elected officials. The programming also looks to celebrate Latino Heritage Month here at the University.

Dr. Nicole Kalaf-Hughes, an assistant professor in the University’s political science department, facilitated the discussion by introducing her research.

Kalaf-Hughes studies political institutions and how they function in relation to serving their constituents.

“I (research) how certain officials do or

do not represent their own constituents,” she said.

Students and professors spoke on how immigration is a predominant topic for many White House hopefuls. KalafHughes said that sometimes our American view can become jaded and simplified when it comes to border security.

PEOPLEON THESTREET Where is the best place in BG to get a mightnight snack?

“Oasis, because they deliver.”

All you need is understanding “I understand” is underrated.

There is an episode in one of the later seasons of the popular show Parks and Recreation in which Ann (Rashida Jones) is having a baby with Chris, and she is feeling disgruntled.

Ann’s hormones are off the charts and she is a million different kinds of emotional, most without any basis on physical needs.

She merely is having feelings and wants a shoulder to cry on.

Well, Chris doesn’t really allow that to happen. Every day he comes home having done all kinds of baby research and bombards Ann with this useful information.

She has a hard time getting a word in edgewise, even in the case when he asks directly how her day was, for when she says, “Well I’ve been feeling...” Chris is at the ready with what he perceives to be all the solutions to all her woes.

The comedy comes in when Ann then resorts to going into the Parks department office and using the gang’s hangout time for her time to vent her frustrations. Desperate to get their “wine and cheese tasting” time back for themselves, they confront Chris and give him some simple enough advice: “Shut up.”

bg

Tabitha Holowka Forum Editor They coach him on the most appropriate way to respond to Ann’s troubles. She doesn’t need a hero, she is independent. She seeks a relationship with Chris in order to have an emotional bond, not for him to fix everything.

When the time comes later that night, he asks her, rather timidly, “How was your day?” To which she responds honestly and emotionally. She then pauses, also timidly, expecting Chris to launch into his helpful tirade. He responds, at the advice of the gang with, “That sucks.” Ann still waits...and then sensing that he is in turn actually waiting to hear more, continues.

“That sucks” is a statement of understanding without the presumption of all-knowingness.

Too often, we feel that when a person is pouring their heart out to us, that they are seeking our help and some kind of expertise.

This is usually not the case; if a person is seeking guidance, they will directly ask for it in the context of the conversation.

The simple statement of “I understand,” goes a long way. Your friend will be grateful for the chance to be heard and accepted.

There are many different phrases that represent understanding, and even probe further. I’m not going to give any away here, and instead prompt you to think about your listening skills. Venting and the like are unlike typical conversations. The biggest contribution you can make can be simple affirmations that your friend is heard.

TRIGGER WARNING: What is assault?

Sexual assault is a real thing in this world.

It’s not a lie or some myth you hear about during summer nights around the bonfire.

It’s a real thing we need to be educated about.

First, let’s talk about what sexual assault is. It’s not necessarily rape, but any form of physical sexual harassment such as touching someone forcibly without their permission.

Here’s a myth about sexual assault: It only happens to women. This is not true. Men can and have been sexually assaulted. Men can be sexually assaulted by other men or women. Women can also be sexually assaulted by other women.

Gay men are often victims of sexual violence and assault by other men. Other examples of sexual assault are: Penetration of the victim’s body (also known as rape), attempted rape, forcing a victim to perform sexual acts, such as oral sex or penetrating the perpetrator’s body fondling or unwanted sexual touching.

What’s crazy is that not all sexual assaults happen by force. Force doesn’t always refer to physical pressure. Perpetrators may use emotional coercion, psychological force or manipulation to

Torrance Vaughan Columnist coerce a victim into non-consensual sex. Some perpetrators will use threats to force a victim to comply, such as threatening to hurt the victim or their family or other intimidation tactics. A perpetrator of the sexual assault is typically someone that the victim knows. Approximately two-thirds of sexual assaults are committed by someone known to the victim, such as in the case of intimate partner sexual violence or acquaintance rape.

The term “date rape” is sometimes used to refer to acquaintance rape. Perpetrators of acquaintance rape might be a date, but they could also be a classmate, a neighbor, a friend’s significant other, or any number of different roles.

It’s important to remember that dating, instances of past intimacy or other acts like kissing do not give someone consent for increased or continued sexual contact.

In other instances the victim may not know the perpetrator at all. This type of sexual violence is sometimes referred to as stranger rape. Stranger rape can occur in several different ways.

Blitz sexual assault is when a perpetrator quickly and brutally assaults the victim with no prior contact, usually at night in a public place, Home invasion sexual assault is when a stranger breaks into the victim’s home to commit the assault.

Contact sexual assault is when a perpetrator contacts the victim and tries to gain their trust by flirting, luring the victim to their car or otherwise trying to coerce the victim into a situation where the sexual assault will occur.

It is very important that you take precaution, no matter what age you are as sexual assault has no bearing on age.

Students attending college currently need to be careful especially.

I have a friend who is gay and was sexually assaulted by a straight male one night while he was out exploring downtown BG. Sexual assault

isn’t always about sexual attraction, it’s about power and dominance.

We need to come together as a community to stop sexual assault.

What’s also crazy is that not many victims come forward. Instead they blame themselves.

No matter who you are, no one has the right to assault you.

Some tips for avoiding sexual assault are using the buddy system when going out with friends and calling for an escort if necessary. Getting a rape whistle or pepper spray is also another good tactic to protect yourself.

I have also considered getting a rape whistle as I am just as much at risk as everyone else of being sexually assaulted.

If you witness sexual assault, SPEAK UP! Call for help. No matter what you do, don’t let it happen!

If you need someone to talk to, you can reach the University’s Counseling Center at 419-372-2081.

Respond to Torrance

In search for love, sometimes we let go This column was originally published in the BG News on Aug. 25, 2015.

“You fall for anyone who has the potential of destroying you.”

For many people, these words hit home.

At one point in a person’s life, they will find themselves lost and confused.

Do you have a friend who cannot keep a healthy, stable relationship?

Maybe they jump from person to person or one night stand to the next, further pushing themselves into a deeper state of loneliness, continuously blaming themselves for their poor judgement and selfsabotaging tendencies.

Maybe you’re friends with someone like this, maybe it’s a parent, a sibling, maybe it’s you or maybe it’s the person writing this column.

The search for love is not easy. It can become an addiction, especially if one doesn’t know how to search for the “right” kind of love.

Unfortunately, it’s easier to blame the victim by “slut shaming” or joking about “daddy” or “mommy issues,” rather than addressing the underlying problem.

Ashley Hardwick Columnist Humans have big hearts and we trust too easily, sometime we allow our insecurities to get the best of us.

Sometimes we’re caught up in an endless cycle of searching for love and we do not realize we’re running in the opposite direction, away from who we are, straight into the arms of deception who provides temporary comfort and affection.

Sometimes we fall for the person wearing the mask and we are labeled because of it.

We are defined by our mistakes, even failed romances.

If you find yourself in this cycle or you know someone who is currently stuck there, learn how to love yourself.

I know this is a cliché phrase you’ve been told numerous times and you may think you do love yourself and that’s OK. But if you find yourself in this unsuccessful chase for love, do this: commit to a daily routine.

You need stability, so if that means going to Starbucks every morning at 9 a.m, eating a blueberry scone, drinking a vanilla iced latte with soy and reading the BG News, so be it.

You will never find a stable relationship if you do not have some sort of stability and balance within yourself.

My second piece of advice is to allow yourself “me time.”

I know that sounds silly, but allowing yourself quiet time to think, reflect on the day, your goals, etc, will ultimately allow personal growth and independence.

Thirdly, cut out all negativity in your life.

That one “friend” who always brings you down? Hasta luego.

The person who only comes around when they need something or the person who thinks you’re an ATM machine?

Say your goodbyes now.

You need positivity, good vibes and influences in your life that will help you make healthy decisions.

T h i n k of it l i ke t h is : people have ex pi rat ion dates.

When these dates expire, their time is up.

You’ve learned from them and they’ve given

you enough strength to let them go.

Now it’s time to take care of yourself.

Womens soccer drops two games to increase losing streak

By Evan Hayes Sports Reporter It was a tough opening weekend of conference play for the women’s soccer team, as they dropped their first two matches in MAC play of the season. After losing to Miami University on Friday night at Cochrane stadium by a score of 2-1, the Falcons lost again at home to Ball State 1-0 on Sunday afternoon. They are now 4-4-1 on the season.

“I think I’m just disappointed in our mentality throughout the 90-minute match. I think we had some highs,” head coach Lindsay Basalyga said. “We didn’t necessarily have lows with mentality, but I thought we hit a point in the game where we lacked belief that we could grind our way out of a one-goal deficit. “ Redshirt junior and co-captain Lauren Cadel and the Falcon’s defense was tested early and often on Sunday, facing fourteen first half shots from the Ball State offense. The Cardinals controlled the ball by pressuring BG and playing stifling defense, not allowing a single shot by the Falcons in the opening period. The game

would end with a 24-7 Cardinals advantage in the shot column.

Cadel faced shots during the 7th and 12th minute as the Cardinals attacked the Falcons, which Cadel saved for her first two of the game.

A shot by Cardinal’s player Chay McNitt almost put Ball State in front during the 31st minute, but the ball sailed out of bounds over the crossbar and a leaping Cadel extended hand.

Recording three more saves during the rest of the half, Cadel was able to keep the score even at 0-0 as the two teams went into halftime.

While they struggled to attack the goal in the first half, the Falcons came out with noticeably more energy in the second half. Alexa Cheripko and Paige Amodio both took shots on goal at the 46th and 47th minute, but Cardinals goalkeeper Alyssa Heintschel saved both. Erica Hubert’s shot was blocked at the 52nd mark, and her follow up attempt missed high.

“We had a lot more energy in the second half, but it’s just a matter of putting together 90 minutes,” Cadel said. “I think just knowing we had to go at them. It was zero to zero at halftime, so

just knowing that we had to bring the energy and we had to lift it, that’s what contributed to that.”

Despite the increased energy from the Falcons, the Cardinals continued to attack aggressively on offense. After a missed corner kick attempt at the 62nd minute, Ball State was awarded another corner kick at the 63rd minute.

The Cardinals’ Lauren Hall kicked a wellplaced corner kick to the front of the net and Lorina White headed the ball into the left side of the goal for the match’s first and only goal.

The final chance the Falcons had to even the game came at the 76th minute, but Heintschel saved Erica Hubert’s shot on goal. Madison Shupbach and Hubert both took shots at the 80th and 83rd minutes respectively, but both attempts sailed wide of the net.

Despite opening up MAC play with two losses, the young Falcons team only lost by one in each game. That is progress for a program that has finished in the bottom three of the conference the past two years.

Akron | 7pm Volleyball: Vs. Akron | 7pm Women’s Tennis: @UIC | All Day Women’s Swim: Vs. Orange and Brown Intersquad Meet | 3:30pm “We’re walking out of two games against two good teams that are traditionally at the top of the conference. The MAC can be funny and you never know what’s going to happen in any given year,” Basalyga said. “They definitely made us better. And we only lost by one goal, it’s not like we got blown out of either game. For us, it’s really just a belief system that we are good enough, we have the ideas, and we have the players to have success in a 90-minute game.”

With two more home games on the schedule for this weekend, the Falcons will look to put these past two losses behind them and to improve their conference record.

“I think we just need to take advantage of our next opportunities,” sophomore Rachel Winters said. “We can’t get this weekend back, we just need to learn from it and come out strong next week in practice, work for each other, and get some points next weekend.”

BG will be in action Friday against the Akron Zips at 7 p.m., and will then go up against the Buffalo Bison on Sunday at 1 p.m. Both matches will take place at Cochrane Stadium.

Pat Flynn continues to lead mens soccer

By Zane Miller Sports Reporter Bowling Green mens soccer junior forward Pat Flynn currently leads the Mid-American Conference in nearly all major offensive categories and the team plans on continuing to utilize his goal scoring abilities.

“Scoring goals is a natural talent for him,” head coach Eric Nichols said. “He works on a daily basis to keep things sharp, his movement away from the ball is really good and his timing off of his teammates is really good.”

Nichols also said that even though Flynn is a goal scorer, the team is still trying to use him up to his full potential.

“I think we’re learning how to use him better as a team,” Nichols said. “Pat came in as a goal scorer and he’s continued on that path, if anything, it’s more so we’ve learned how to use him better.”

Flynn also said the team’s senior leaders have helped him become a leader himself.

“We talk about standard setters,” Flynn said. “(Jake) Genrich is a great standard setter and we have three great captains that set the standard for us, so I just try to lead, follow them and then take my role; not a vocal leader, but just lead by example.”

Flynn said that he has enjoyed being a part of the team.

“It’s a great program,” Flynn said. “I knew a lot of people here, I’ve been good friends with Joe (Sullivan) since we were young, I talked to (Danny) Shea too, and they both loved it here; so I thought it would be a great decision for me.”

Last season, Flynn was named an Academic All-American for excellence both athletically and academically.

“It’s a great accomplishment,” Flynn said.

“Being an All-American shows the true meaning of a student athlete. We come here for school, too. Academics is just people pushing each other, just trying to be better in school as well.”

Freshman forward Tate Robertson said that Flynn has been a big role model for him throughout his brief time on the team so far.

“He’s an upperclassman, so he kind of took me under his wing,” Robertson said. “He told me what I need to know and what I need to do, and I’ve just been trying to model myself after him.”

Robertson also said that Flynn helps to get everybody on the team in the game.

“Probably the best thing is his awareness of the game and how he gets everyone else involved,” Robertson said. “Other teams know who he is… Once the double team comes, he’ll find somebody else to put the ball in the net.”

Travis Greene scores late to give Falcons a win

By Aaron Parker Sports Editor The Bowling Green football team scored a touchdown with just seconds left to play to get a win over the Purdue Boilermakers this past weekend.

With the game tied 28-28, the Falcons faced a first and 10 on the Purdue 12-yard line. With Matt Johnson powering the Bowling Green offense through the air for a majority of the season, many expected the ball to go to him for a decision.

Head coach Dino Babers had a different plan in mind.

Senior running back Travis Greene is one of the best at the position that the Falcons have ever had. Greene had 26 touchdowns in his past two years on the team and had one so far

this season coming in against Purdue.

Greene made the Purdue defense look Greene had scored the bad.

Purdues side made the game a bit easier for the Falcons.

“The good thing about that call was that we were running the clock down as well,” Johnson said. “Even if Travis did not get into the end zone, we were going to be able to kick the field goal for the win.”

Tours give alumni opportunity to explore changes on campus

By Nikita Lewis Reporter When most people think of a campus tour, typically they think of prospective students touring the campus; however, the University offers tours to alumni as well.

“The purpose of the alumni tours is to give the alumni a chance to observe the new campus and also evaluate what may have changed since they have attended the University,” said Roberta Garcia, senior secretary in office of Alumni and Development.

The alumni tours are coordinated between the Office of Admissions and the Alumni Association in order to accommodate alumni attending homecoming.

Tour guides will be showing alumni around campus during homecoming weekend, which falls on Oct. 16-18.

“We will have walking campus tours,

campus tours via shuttle and recreation center tours during that weekend along with other activities for the alumni,” said Garcia.

Tour guides throughout campus that weekend are required to accommodate the alumni needs and questions and to introduce the alumni to any additions on campus that they are not familiar with.

During this weekend, the class of 1965 will be celebrating their 50th anniversary at the University.

“Within the past 50 years I’m sure a lot (has) changed, so I think it is very vital the tour guides give a good description of the renovations that have taken place,” said junior Alexandria Towns.

Coordinator of Campus Visits Brittany Scott said the tour guides need to be dedicated.

“I think it is a fun atmosphere for our

tour guides but I stress to them that they have a very important job in the Office of Admissions and for the University as well.

They are the directors of first impressions because that is what a lot of prospective students are looking at when deciding schools,” said Scott. “It’s a job you have to be dedicated to because rain or shine, hot or cold you have to give a tour.”

This homecoming weekend will be the first year that tours will be offered specifically for alumni only during the weekend.

“As of today 13 alumni have already signed up to participate in the alumni tour and I expect the number to continue to increase,” said Garcia.

“I think the alumni tour is a great opportunity not only for alumni, but the alumni’s children or grandchildren who may be interested in the history of the University or the campus as well,” said Scott.

Krishna Han, the assistant director for Diversity Education said that the politicians are honing in on something that has been problematic in all of United States history.

“I think we’re tapping into something that has always been there,” he said.

The discussion moved into how immigration politics creates unsafe spaces for people of color, especially the Latino community.

Student Vaughn Thorton said, “We have shaped identity around them, but I’m not (sure) that there is all agreement around Latino culture.”

The conversation shifted into the erasure of the Latino community can be harmful to the United States socially and economically.

Jay Torres, a women’s gender and sexuality studies major said that this neglect to specific culture is personally harmful.

“I feel like my identity is completely erased and not validated just for the convenience of someone and their own ignorance,” she said. “When I moved to the U.S., the only one specific thing (to do) was to be white or to be American. It means to leave your culture behind you and assimilate into an American culture.”

Torres said that there needs to be a change in how politicians view their constituents, especially people of color.

“There needs to be a change in consciousness,” she said. “Every single person came from an immigrant. We all have a story and background, we all fought for something. We need to be aware of the things that we fought for... that was important for us.”

NEWS CAMPUSBRIEF Job Expo brings more than 200 employers to campus Students will have the opportunity to meet 225 employers at the Job Expo in the Perry Field House today, Sept. 29, from 10 a.m. to 3 p.m.

Jeffery Jackson, assistant vice president for Student Career Success, said the expo features employers from all over the U.S. Potential employers are looking to fill fulltime, post-Bachelor and internship positions.

Jackson said he encourages students to pick

SEPTEMBER 29, 2015 | PAGE 11

up an expo guide on campus or view the guide online at www.bgsu.edu/career-center to see all the employers who will be at the expo.

He said students could look at the employers ahead of time to “do their homework, learn about them and be more definitive when approaching them.”

“They can have an informed conversation rather than blindly meeting them,” he said.

Jackson said his goal is to have 2,500 students at the expo, which would surpass last year’s attendance by 1,000.

“Whenever there are employers on campus, I encourage students to see them,” he said. “That’s why they are here: to see students.”

USG launches weekly informational videos

By Alyssa Alfano Copy Chief Monday’s Underg raduate Student Government meeting included an open forum with President Mary Ellen Mazey and updates on recent initiatives.

Mazy spoke briefly in an open forum at the USG meeting and took the opportunity to answer some questions brought up by the students.

She covered many topics, including goals for this year and initiatives for diversity on campus.

Mazey said that one of the main goals this year that the university has will be “continuing to define the BG experience.”

Mazey said that “universities have to be all about the students,” and maintaining the University experience is part of that.

When it comes to diversity on campus, Mazey said, “I think we need to continue how to take the Not in Our Town movement into the next generation.”

After the open forum, USG president Victor Senn talked about the new video series that USG will be publishing through Key Magazine.

Senn said that “The videos are meant to be a informational session ... for students to understand and get a good place to hear

what USG is doing every week.”

Senn said that these videos will be a good way for the organization to be more transparent and to show students what USG is doing.

Senn and USG Vice President Danielle Parker both agreed that “visibility is accountability,” and these videos will be a great way for the organization to be more visible.

The weekly videos will come out on Mondays and the first video was published Monday on keymagazine.org and on the USG Facebook and Twitter pages.

Continuing w it h USG’s initiative to get better lighting on ca mpus, t he idea was brought up to do a wa lk a round ca mpus w it h ca mpus operat ions i n order to f ind a reas on ca mpus t hat a re not well lit at night.

Parker hopes to gain from this walk “a better understanding of where students do feel uncomfortable, especially in the dark and just a clearer image of what the university looks like at night.”

After this walk, the goal is to go back and get lighting set up to make those spots safer.

Parker and Senn agree that they “want to make this campus as safe as they can, as soon as they can.”
