Student Government Association President Jack Hesser said 15 of his slate’s platform points are either complete, such as extended dining hours and the installation of a phone charging station, or at least 85 percent complete. He said Atlas’ progress is due to the preparation they did before they were elected.

“The reason we’ve been able to accomplish what we’ve been able to is the work the slate put into these platform points before elections,” Hesser said. “There was so much homework done ahead of time that we knew who to contact and were able to overcome obstacles.”

The slate has also completed nine other initiatives in addition to the 15 platform points, such as the Cardinal Project, when students gathered on the football field after the first home game and took a group photo.

The Ball State soccer team hasn’t lost in over a month. Its seven-match win streak is just one away from the school record set in 2006.

The Cardinals (10-2-2) are still undefeated in Mid-American Conference play at 6-0, a feat no other soccer team in school history has been able to reach.

While the team has been dominating recently, it is still focusing on getting better every day.

“We don’t focus on the wining streak,” head coach Craig Roberts said. “Our focus is evaluating ourselves. We want to continue to improve, and our team has embraced that.”

The win streak hasn’t been easy — four of the victories have been decided by just one goal.

The Cardinals have embraced the “next player up” mentality, which works well with a deep bench. This season, 10 different Cardinals have scored at least one goal this season, and five of them have scored three or more.

During the win streak, Ball State has outscored opponents 16-5, shutting out their opponents on two separate occasions.

1. OBAMA EXTENDS WAR IN AFGHANISTAN WASHINGTON (AP) — President Barack Obama on Thursday abandoned his pledge to end America’s longest war, announcing plans to keep at least 5,500 U.S. troops in Afghanistan when he leaves office in 2017 and hand the conflict off to his successor.

It is another setback for the president in his quest to extricate the U.S. from more than a decade of war in Afghanistan and Iraq. That goal was already tarnished by the return of U.S. forces to Iraq last year to help fight the Islamic State, a military

mission Obama has said will likely outlast his presidency.

Now, the winner of the 2016 presidential election will also become the third American commander in chief to oversee the Afghan war.

“I know many of you have grown weary of this conflict,” Obama said, addressing the American people in remarks from the White House.

“As you are all well aware, I do not support the idea of endless war.”

But he added, “I am firmly convinced that we should make this extra effort.”

Williams, 24, and Harrigan, 26, apologized to the victims and the judge as they pleaded guilty to assault and conspiracy charges in the attack last year that left one victim with a broken jaw and cheekbones. They said the beating wasn’t motivated by the couple’s sexual orientation.

Prosecutors said the victims, Zachary Hesse and Andy Haught, encouraged a resolution that avoided excessive punishment while sending a positive message about tolerance.

4. ISRAELIS ON GUARD AMID VIOLENCE JERUSALEM (AP) — A wave of stabbing attacks has spread fear in Jerusalem and much of Israel.

The month-long violence has mostly been confined to sporadic stabbings and clashes between Palestinian protesters and police.

It has claimed the lives of eight Israelis and some 30 Palestinians, a far cry from the years of near daily shooting and bombing attacks that

killed more than 1,000 Israelis and thousands of Palestinians in the early 2000s. But already, a siege mentality has taken hold.

Municipalities have increased security patrols, the government has eased gun licensing procedures and public officials, including Jerusalem Mayor Nir Barkat, are openly carrying personal weapons and encouraging the public to do the same.

TUCSON, Ariz. (AP) — Less than one percent of immigrant arrests made by the U.S. Border Patrol in Arizona happen at the various inland checkpoints, according to a new report.

Critics say the checkpoints result in racial profiling and abuse of power by agents. The Border Patrol says they are crucial to catching human and drug smugglers who cross illegally into the U.S. But very few arrests are made

such a law, but it suspended that plan several months ago.

Newsom’s measure comes in the wake of high-profile killings nationwide.

He says “stuff doesn’t just have to happen” in response to comments by Republican presidential candidate Jeb Bush about a mass shooting on an Oregon college campus.

The checkpoints can be within 100 air miles of the country’s border and are usually located on highways and small roads. People who drive through a checkpoint are asked to reveal whether they are U.S. citizens.

Minnetrista supports local businesses After Hours to host Food Truck Friday for 21+ crowd BRITTANY BAGGETT GENERAL REPORTER blbaggett@bsu.edu

|

Minnetrista organized an eight-part event series to increase the interaction between community and local businesses.

Friday’s event is Food Truck Friday for those 21 and over for After Hours at Minnetrista on Oct. 16 from 6-8:30 p.m.

An eight-part event series organized by Minnetrista aims to increase interaction between the community and local businesses—including a sector of the food industry that’s been restricted by recent legislation.

Minnetrista’s After Hours will host the seventh installment of the event series: Food Truck Friday, a 21+ event today from 6-8:30 p.m. at 1200

North Minnetrista Parkway, where people can sample cooking from three food trucks.

Earlier this year, the city of Muncie passed an ordinance prohibiting food vendors from operating within 150 feet, or about half a block, of an established food service business during business hours.

rience, said Food Truck Friday is how Minnetrista is choosing to display their support for the food trucks.

Food trucks are different than regular restaurants because they can specialize in certain types of food more easily, said Schroer.

Hip-hop dance group encourages expression Routine practice provides creative outlet for dancers

SABRINA SCHNETZER EVENTS REPORTER slschnetzer@bsu.edu

In the last eight years, a Ball State hip-hop group won Air Jam seven times. The group is aptly named Outlet, as it’s also served as an escape from troubles since 2003.

“Dancing for me just lets me de-stress. We get to dance [at practices], which is something we all love to do,” said Morgen Fidel, Outlet’s president.

Homecoming may be over, but Outlet still practices twice a week at the Jo Ann Gora Student Recreation and Wellness Center.

The group’s performance schedule doesn’t end after Air Jam either. Fidel has

added performances at various events.

Their work will culminate at the spring showcase. Last year, they performed 12 routines at the annual event.

The Spring Showcase started in 2006. The Outlet president at the time teamed up with a fashion major to create an event with a fashion show and dance numbers.

Dances are often choreographed by Outlet members.

“We allow everyone to make up their own group dances for the showcase. We work really hard to make sure it’s an exciting show and shows a variety of dances,” said Fidel.

Shannon Kaminski, a junior Outlet dancer, choreographed the beginning and end of this year’s Air Jam routine.

Kaminski joined Outlet her freshman year, and has also danced with the Code Red

Dance Team.

She teaches at several dance studios and does choreography. Kaminski said she enjoys Outlet because of the diversity of the dancers.

“I’ve been in the same groove for 10 years ... It was nice coming to Outlet because [there are] twenty different people from twenty different studios,” Kaminski said.

This is the second year Fidel is serving as Outlet’s president.

“Last year it was a very trial-and-error year for me. I tried to switch some things up from when I was previously on the team,” she said.

Planning events and preparing dances have gotten easier for her. Outlet is still her reprieve from everyday life.

“I think it’s a great group to be a part of,” Fidel said.

“It’s a great stress reliever.”

ent names, for five years.

Food trucks aren’t the only Muncie business that After Hours at Minnetrista has supported.

“The goal of After Hours at Minnetrista is to introduce people to new businesses around the city. It’s a way to try to not make people feel like they have to go to Indianapolis to have fun,” Schroer said.

Previous After Hours at Min-

netrista events have included refreshments from the Heorot and fledgling restaurant Southern Grubbin.

Rolling Luau, The Uptown Dog and New Corner Brewing are the food trucks scheduled for Food Truck Friday.

Joe Mann, “Head Bear” of Three Bears Concessions and the owner of The Uptown Dog, has been in the food truck business for over 30 years. He started selling food to put his daughter through Ball State.

It’s been years since she’s graduated, but Mann is still working.

Despite the food truck ordinance, Mann said business has not changed for his food truck.

Team plagued by injury Ball State needs 4 more victories for bowl eligibility

|

EVAN SIDERY FOOTBALL REPORTER @esidery

The Cardinals have been battling the injury bug since the beginning of the season. Through the midway point, it remains a constant issue.

Although head coach Pete Lembo has been dealing with injuries all year, he keeps a game mentality

when someone goes down in practice.

“If a guy goes down in practice, we don’t stop the drill,” Lembo said. “We turn around and keep moving.

There’s no insensitivity about it whatsoever.”

The ‘next man up’ mentality will allow whoever comes in to compete at a starter level. The Cardinals are currently 2-4 and have to win at least four more games to become bowl eligible.

Ball State’s roster consists of more than 100 players, which includes

plenty of backups waiting for their turn.

“Next man up and you keep going,” Lembo said.

“That doesn’t matter if it’s the quarterback, or the tight end, or the defensive tackle or whoever. The other thing that goes hand-inhand with that: every guy wants to play.”

Freshman safety Lamont McPhatter, who dealt with a hamstring injury during training camp, got his first career start last week due to Ball State’s secondary injuries.

During the last two weeks,

the Cardinals’ defense has given up 83 points and 1,080 yards combined.

The defensive line has been the biggest problem.

Keenan Noel, Julian Jackson, Carlutorbantu Zaramo and Darnell Smith have all been out at one point.

While there have been a high number of injuries this year, Lembo is no stranger to big injuries.

During the 2012-13 season, he went through a stretch where he used three different quarterbacks in a two-week period.

Keith Wenning, one of

Ball State’s most prolific quarterbacks in team history, went down with an ankle injury. This led to backup senior Kelly Page leading a victory over Ohio on senior night.

During the following week, in the season finale at Miami (Ohio), Page got hurt, forcing red-shirt Kyle Kamman into action.

The Cardinals were bowl eligible during that time, so with the amount of names on the injury report, it’s something to consistently keep an eye on in the coming weeks.

Roberts has plenty of depth to get contributions throughout his lineup every match.

“Our bench is very valuable to our team,” Roberts said.

“Anyone can contribute. They aren’t our subs, they are our game-changers.”

During the Oct. 11 game against Ohio University, it was the bench that put pressure on the opposing goalie to keep Ball State’s win streak alive.

Senior Chelsy Swackhamer came off the bench to score what would be the match-winning goal on the way to the team’s 2-1 victory.

This year’s team is very different from what the Cardinals have been in the past. The Ball State offense has shown its dominance as it sits atop most MAC offensive categories.

The Cardinals now have a target on their back, being the only undefeated team in conference play.

“We are ready for it,” freshman Abbie Boswell said.

“Teams are coming out wanting to beat us more than ever, but as long as we have that drive, we are confident in our game.”

Ball State is first in MAC standings, three points ahead of Miami (Ohio) and five points against Western Michigan in the West Division.

The Cardinals will look to continue to improve their game and come out on top of a couple away matches this weekend.

They visit Northern Illinois (211) today and Western Michigan (7-3-3) Sunday.

Ball State offensive line vs. Georgia State defensive line

Ball State running backs vs. Georgia State linebackers

Ball State wide receivers vs. Georgia State cornerbacks

Ball State secondary vs.

Georgia State quarterback

Ball State: Ball State’s offensive line ranks as one of the best in the country, anchored by senior center Jacob Richard. Six games into the season, the line has faced off against three teams currently ranked in the top 25 and allowed just six sacks.

Georgia State: Georgia State has accumulated eight sacks on the year. On the ground, they are allowing 4.6 yards per carry and 205 yards a game.

Edge: Ball State. The Cardinals should be able to keep quarterback Riley Neal up all game and create holes for running backs Darian Green and James Gilbert.

Ball State: Sophomore Darian Green got off to a hot start, but over the last two weeks has averaged 2.6 yards per carry. Still, Ball State is averaging 4.6 yards per carry and 177 yards per game.

Georgia State: Georgia State has many players on defense capable of bringing down the ball carrier. Joseph Peterson leads the Panthers with 50 tackles. The linebackers will be the key, but not before Ball State gets going.

Edge: Ball State. The one-two punch of Green and Gilbert should prove too much for Georgia State’s linebackers to handle.

Ball State: Ball State’s leading receiver Jordan Williams is picking up 92.5 yards per game with four touchdowns. Williams has been placed on the Biletnikoff watch list based on his play. KeVonn Mabon has also stepped up, averaging 9.8 yards per reception.

Georgia State: Georgia State is allowing 290 yards per game to go along with nine touchdowns. The Panthers will have to disguise coverage schemes or they could be in for a heavy dose of Riley Neal.

Edge: Ball State. If Williams gets going, it could be a long day for the Panthers.

Ball State: The inexperienced secondary has allowed 276 yards per game and 14 passing touchdowns. The Cardinals are allowing 36 points per game on defense.

Georgia State: Georgia State quarterback Nick Arbuckle is completing 64.7 percent of for 310 yards per game. He is ranked 17th in the nation for total passing yardage, and has thrown 10 touchdowns. If he gets off to a hot start, he could exploit the Cardinals’ secondary.

Edge: Georgia State. If Arbuckle gets going early, he could be in for another big performance against this young group.

Feminists for Action talks social equality Group kicks off 1st of biweekly discussion events

|

ALLIE KIRKMAN MULTICULTURAL REPORTER aekirkman@bsu.edu

Feminists for Action is encouraging students to talk about empowerment and social equality in today’s culture in the group’s bi-weekly event.

The first of many Feminist Fridays will kick off today from 12 to 2 p.m. in the Atrium.

“It’s important for students to know that they don’t have to be feminist or a woman to join the conversation on feminism and societal issues,” said Emmalie Hodge, Feminists for Action president.

The group will have tables

UPCOMING TOPICS TODAY

Culturally appropriate Halloween costumes set up where student can stop by and talk to members about a certain issue within feminism and participate in interactive games featured at each event.

For the first Feminist Friday, they’ll be working alongside Ball State Democrats to discuss taking a stand for Planned Parenthood.

The group’s goal for events like Feminist Friday is to further educate students about issues of concern in the global, national and community level by encouraging thought-provoking discussions, as stated

on the group’s BennyLink.

“Feminists for Action is an intersectional feminist group on campus,” Hodge said. “We try to include all groups that are affected by the issues of today’s society.”

Feminist Fridays will take place twice a month.

The next one will be held Oct. 30 and will focus on what is culturally appropriate with Halloween costumes. They’ll be promoting and encouraging

safety among students.

Feminists for Action encourages “absolutely anyone” to join the club, Hodge said. The club meetings take place every Tuesday at 6 p.m. in the Burkhardt Building room 104.

“Everybody can benefit from being a part of the discussions,” Hodge said.

“We don’t just care about women’s issues and rights.

We care about everyone.”

The university began work to install a left turn arrow at the Scramble Light on Oct. 10, according to a university email. Drivers on Riverside or McKinley avenues will be able to turn left under the protected arrow now.

SCRAMBLE LIGHT GETS TURN ARROW

Drivers on campus will now be able to turn left with an arrow at the Scramble Light, making it easier to get through the light when traffic is heavy.

An email to the university said the work began Oct. 10 and was completed by Oct. 13.

Now, vehicles driving on Riverside or McKinley avenues are able to turn left under a protected arrow.

The university partnered with the city of Muncie to install the arrows.

What do students like in restaurants?

Village seems to be more popular than downtown Muncie

ALLIE KIRKMAN MULTICULTURAL REPORTER aekirkman@bsu.edu

Students have always ventured off campus in search of food that isn’t from campus dining halls, but they won’t go to just any place they can find.

Most have specifications of restaurants they want the Village and downtown to have.

Although the Village seems to be the more popular of the two choices, expectations for restaurants remain the same for both.

Students want restaurants that are fast, cheap and have late hours.

directly and adversely affect some areas,” Kessler said.

“People need to be able to voice concerns.”

Two years ago, provost Terry King put together an academic planning steering committee to develop an academic plan for the next 20-25 years.

Mitchell Whaley, dean of the College of Applied Sciences and Technology, said the committee talked about which programs that would or would not be needed,

as well as organizational structures for the college.

“Coming out of that year, there was a consensus about co-locating health-related assets at Ball State into a new college,” Whaley said.

In August 2014, the provost put together a College of Health implementation task force, and Whaley was involved in the group to form the new college.

“Part of launching the college is faculty in the

“I think that’s pretty amazing, and I’m more confident in the fact that they can actually get things done because the stereotype is the government never gets things done,” Powell said.

Powell said the slate’s platform point regarding sexual assault was extremely important and is pleased with how it has been addressed. SGA designated funds for residence halls to provide sexual assault awareness programs this semester, as well as contributed to Step in. Speak up. However, she believes other areas could use some improvement, such as the phone charging station in the Atrium. “[I’d like to see] a better location,” Powell said, “like the one in the [L.A. Pittenger] Student Center where you can, like, lock your phone in it because you can’t just sit your phone in the Atrium.”

SGA will continue to work on completing its remaining six platform points, such extending the duration of the Blue Loop and hosting an alumni leader reunion, which will take place on Feb. 9, 2016.

Last year’s SGA slate accomplished seven out of their 17 platform points by the end of the Fall 2014 sevarious departments here, but departments in other colleges looking at the mission and vision of this new College of Health and then, through a voting process, requesting to realign,” said Whaley.

mester, or about 41 percent.

Hesser said every SGA slate has success in different areas, but his slate is further along than he had predicted.

“I think that so far we’ve been able to be ahead of where we anticipated,” Hesser said. “So far we’ve been doing well in our platform points, but there are other things we want to improve on.”

Hesser said completing the platform points so quickly allows the slate to focus on the Student Sen-

ate, the body of students who create and vote on legislation. He said he plans to devote more time to working with the senators once all the platform points are done.

“I’m really excited to work with the senators, and a really big focus for me, personally, is to focus on our strategic plan,” Hesser said. “I really want to work with the senators to kind of figure out ‘Okay, how can we set a really good strategic plan?’”

voice wanting to move to the College of Health.

“That happens at universities. You start off with a slate of programs and then some programs fall off, some are added, and over time, you look different than you did 20-30 years ago,” said Whaley.

By the end of the semester, Kessler said they will have the voting process completed and will know which units will be moving and which ones will stay as is.

“The College of Health will provide an organizational structure where health related programs, students and faculty will be in closer collaborations with each other,” Whaley said.

The new college is founded on the idea of effectively collaborating with various departments.

“It makes sense for people who live relatively in the same world to be governed in the same world,” Kessler said.
