en Holland has been working to improve higher education in Afghanistan for 11 years.

So it was only a natural progression for him to become the next president of the American University of Afghanistan in Kabul.

“I want to be a part of that recommitment to the stability of the country,” Holland said. “Ball State is to be commended for its willingness to help Afghanistan. Everyone I meet … always is very grateful to Ball State for all the university has done for country.”

Holland has been at Ball State for nine years as the executive director of the Center for International Development, and has led the university’s efforts to expand educational opportunities on a global scale, acting provost Marilyn Buck said in a university-wide email.

Cardinals to play MIVA semifinals

No. 11 Ball State faces No. 2 Ohio State for spot in championship Hendrix Magley Men's Volleyball Reporter

In order for the third time to be the charm for No. 11 Ball State men’s volleyball against No. 2 Ohio State in the Midwestern Intercollegiate Volleyball Association semifinals, head coach Joel Walton said he’d like to see the Cardinals improve their passing.

“Volleyball is all about serving and passing well,” Walton said. “The teams that are able to execute those skills the best are the ones winning championships.”

To do that, the Cardinals (19-9, 9-7 MIVA) have to be able to handle the Buckeyes’ serving. Junior outside attacker Nicolas Szerszen averages 0.64 service aces per set — the best average in the country.

“Their serves can really keep you offbalance,” Walton said. “If we start to do a good job handling their serves then it begins to put more pressure on the server and can force them into making errors which gives us easier points.”

Every issue we take a look at a national or worldly topic to see what's happening around the globe.

Facebook killer takes his own life as police close in The Associated Press ERIE, Pa. (AP) — The man who randomly gunned down a Cleveland retiree and posted video of the crime on Facebook killed himself Tuesday during a police chase in Pennsylvania that began when a McDonald’s employee recognized him at a drive-thru.

It marked a violent end to the nearly 48-hour multistate manhunt for Steve Stephens, whose case brought another round of criticism down on Facebook over how well it polices objectionable material shared by users.

Acting on a tip from the McDonald’s, Pennsylvania State Police spotted Stephens leaving the restaurant in Erie and went after him, bumping his car to try to get it to stop, authorities said. He shot himself in the head as the car spun out of control, police said.

“This started with one tragedy and ended with another person taking their own life,” said Cleveland Police Chief Calvin Williams. “We would have liked to have brought Steve in peacefully and really talked to him about why this happened.”

Stephens, a 37-year-old job counselor who worked with teenagers and young people, was wanted on murder charges in the killing of Robert Godwin Sr., 74, a former foundry worker and father of 10 who was picking up aluminum cans on Sunday when he was shot.

The chilling video was on Facebook for three hours before it was taken down. It was just the latest instance of crime footage being shared on social media.

Police would not speculate on what was behind the killing, but in the video and other footage he posted, Stephens talked about losing everything he had to gambling and having trouble with his girlfriend. He said he “just snapped.”

4-DAY FORECAST

One of Godwin’s daughters, Debbie Godwin, said she wished Stephens had been captured.

“I’m not happy he’s dead at all, not at all. If you did it, you have to face your crime,” she said.

The break in the case came when police received a tip that Stephens was at the McDonald’s in Erie, in far western Pennsylvania about 100 miles east of Cleveland, where he ordered a 20-piece Chicken McNuggets and fries.

The drive-thru attendant thought she recognized Stephens and called state police, restaurant owner Thomas DuCharme Jr. told the Erie Times-News.

State Police Maj. William Teper Jr. would say only that the tip came from a “concerned citizen.”

The McDonald’s employees tried to “buy some time for the cops” by telling Stephens his fries were delayed, but he said he had no time to wait and drove off, according to DuCharme.

Police picked up the trail in a chase that lasted 2 miles before Stephens took his own life, authorities said.

Gail Wheeler, of Erie, said she was stopped at a light at the McDonald’s when Stephens came “whipping out” of the parking lot, nearly hitting her. She said state troopers weren’t far behind.

Wheeler said she followed the chase and saw a trooper clip Stephens’ rear bumper. His car did a half-turn and came to rest against the curb, and she heard a gunshot, she said. She then saw officers approach the car.

The officer closest to the car “just shook his head,” she said. “They had their guns out, but when he shook his head, they lowered their guns.”

FOR THE RECORD

Alumna part of South Carolina's surprise Final Four run Former Cardinal handles media relations for Gamecocks

Adam Chowdhury & Elizabeth Wyman Daily News Reporters Editor’s note: “For the Record” is a weekly series featuring former stand-out Ball State athletes and their lives after college.

Emily Feeney Miles attends countless South Carolina men’s basketball games.

But April 1 was different. She looked up from her computer in her court-side seat just prior to the tipoff of South Carolina vs. Gonzaga to see 80,000 people.

“Behind the players that were getting ready to jump up for the jump-ball was just a sea of people,” Miles said.

South Carolina was the shock of this year's NCAA tournament. Coming in as the seventh seed, only .06 percent of NCAA March Madness brackets chose the Gamecocks to reach the Final Four. Since the NCAA expanded in 1985 to 64 teams, only two 7 seeds have ever made it to the Final Four. But, it took more than head coach Frank Martin and star point guard PJ Dozier to get the team to Arizona.

Miles, a former Ball State soccer player — and member of the first women’s soccer team at Ball State — serves as the associate director for media relations for South Carolina. Her primary responsibility lies with the men’s

basketball team.

“I was very proud to be a small part of that,” Miles said. “I’m really happy for my teammates here in my office who were able to experience that with me.”

After nine years with South Carolina, the 35-year-old said she never would have expected to be in the position she is now.

She said the entire tournament experience has been the highlight of her career.

“It was an unbelievable experience,” Miles said. “It was a lot of fun to have the experience from an employee standpoint.”

Former opponents join forces as double partners Andersen and Stutz pair up for Ball State men's tennis Patrick Murphy Men’s Tennis Reporter Senior men’s tennis players Lucas Andersen and Andrew Stutz go way back.

Before stepping onto college tennis courts as Ball State’s No. 1 doubles team, the two played against each other.

“For the first time our high schools [Center Grove and North Central] faced each other, I won against Stutz,” Andersen said. “Center Grove had lost the match, though.”

The pair started playing doubles together last season, when they went 22-10. This last fall, they finished third at the Mid-American Conference Indoor Championships.

The duo have played with each other in 52 doubles matches over two years, which Stutz said built strong chemistry.

“I know where he is going to be on the court and he knows where I’m going to be,” Stutz said. “If we play close to our best, we are pretty confident that we can beat most teams,” Stutz said.

Andersen said their playing styles feed off of each other.

“We have different strengths and weaknesses that make up for the other areas we are lacking,” Andersen said.

“Stutz has very good returns and I tend to have more movement at the net and bigger serves.”

This season, Andersen and Stutz are 3-1 against Mid-American Conference opponents and 11-8 overall. The duo’s all-time record is 33-18.

“To have a winning record at number one doubles is always tough,” Andersen said. “You are always going to have a hard match against talented teams.”

It doesn’t make the losses any easier, though. Stutz and Andersen are both competitive and expect to win every match.

“But we play every match at number one doubles,” Stutz said. “During the season, we have played a lot of Big 10 and other top five conferences schools.

“I would take that record any day.”

With the doubles point awarded first in doubles matches, Andersen and Stutz have an important role. If they win.

VOLLEYBALL Continued from page 1

The Cardinals have yet to win a set against the Buckeyes this season, with Ohio State (28-2, 16-0 MIVA) outscoring them 154-118 in the two matches. Walton said Ball State has to slow down their two main offensive weapons — Szerszen and senior opposite Miles Johnson.

Johnson and Szerszen have both had attack percentages of over .500 in their matches against the Cardinals with Johnson hitting a whopping .621 in the win in Worthen Arena which Walton called “ridiculous.”

“You have to be able to disrupt their offense by getting their setter [Christy Blough] off the net,” Walton said. “If he’s up at the net and running all of the options that he has, he starts to feel comfortable and it becomes very difficult for us to get our block where it needs to be.”

SEASON LEADERS - BALL STATE • Kills — Matt Szews (348) • Blocks — Matt Walsh (119) • Assists —Connor Gross (1,061) • Service aces —Matt Szews (37) • Digs — Connor Gross (184)

SEASON LEADERS - OHIO STATE • Kills — Nicolas Szerszen (391) • Blocks — Blake Leeson (96) • Assists —Christy Blough (1,002) • Service aces —Nicolas Szerszen (67) • Digs — Gabriel Domecus (204)

Walton also said he expects momentum to play a huge role. In the first match, Ball State led 21-16 in the first set, but Ohio State was able to work its way back and take the set 29-27.

“We were able to build up a big lead in that set but we just weren’t able to sustain our level of servereceive,” Walton said. “It’s all about consistency — you have to be able to keep up with them offensively and you have to be able to interrupt their ability to be comfortable while

running that offense.”

In terms of momentum for the season as a whole, the Cardinals have been riding a hot streak with sophomore outside attacker Parker Swartz saying the team is peaking at the right time.

Walton said it’s important for the team to continue to play with this mentality into the semifinal match on Wednesday.

“I think it’s good that you’re starting to see our guys get a lot of confidence,” Walton said. “You work for the entire year to be at your best right now in April and ideally in May if you’re still playing.”

Ball State is looking to make its first MIVA championship appearance since 2009, but in order to do that they’ll have to get past a team that kept them out of the championship match in both 2012 and 2010.

First serve is scheduled for 7 p.m. today at St. John Arena in Columbus, Ohio.

Contact Hendrix Magley with any questions or concerns at @TweetsOfHendrix.

“Because a lot of times, if you lose a doubles point, you are even more motivated to come out strong in singles,” Stutz said. “No matter if you win or lose the doubles point, just act like it’s a new match and go in.

On the courts, the duo’s playing style and personality balance each other out.

“Luke is just a bubble of positivity all the time and I get down on myself,” Stutz said. “We kind of yin-and-yang each other.”

In the end, Andersen said it has been a good partnership for the duo.

“We have enjoyed a lot success and would like to end it on a roll and win

our last four matches together going into MAC tournament,” Andersen said.

They’ve come a long way from playing against each other in high school, like when Stutz beat Andersen at the Midwest Regionals at North Central.

“Luke would claim that he was injured, but I just mopped him and took him to the cleaners and destroyed him,” Stutz said. “He might beat me now, but I always have that win.”

The duo’s last conference matches are against Buffalo and Binghamton this weekend in New York.

WHERE THEY WERE BEFORE

From world traveler to journalism instructor Justice Amick Daily News Reporter Editor’s Note: "Where They Were Before" is a Ball State Daily News series profiling various professors and their lives before teaching.

World traveler. Author. Teacher. Mother.

Communicator. Advocate. All of these words can be used to describe one of Ball State’s instructors, who spends most of her days in the Art and Journalism Building.

Instructor Colleen Steffen is an experienced life lover. She hasn’t always been in the classroom. In fact, this is only her fourth full year teaching at Ball State. In the meager four years she has been here full time, she has taught a variety of students and come to love the college.

“I like talking to the young people, seeing them live their lives. They’re so cool and fun,” Steffen said with a crinkle in her nose.

Born on Oct. 25, 1972, when asked about what she remembered most about being a ‘70s baby she laughed wistfully and said “plaid pants.”

At 7:50 p.m., a presentation from Karl Ahlrichs will take place. Ahlrichs is the photographer who won the Book Arts Collaborative’s artist’s book contest.

The photography and haikus featured in “Spaces Between Places” is centered around Ahlrichs’ time spent in transit during business trips. The photography focuses on capturing the act of traveling, rather than the destination one travels to.

Rai Peterson, the project director at Book Arts Collaborative, said Ahlrichs’ photography stood out to the press because of its strong and complicated message about travel.

“We’ve made travel convenient and comfortable, but it’s still a lonely and alienating experience,” she said. “The book reminds us that our time is not our own.”

Peace pole traveling around campus

Hung

t? e Y ry

Kara Berg // DN

Students sign an 8-foot peace pole in the Atrium Tuesday. The purpose of the pole is to honor those who have died over the years in April as a result of tragedies and to promote nonviolence on campus and in the community.

Students promote nonviolence by sharing what peace means to them Kara Berg Daily News Reporter Reject no one, accept all. Just smile and wave. Make love, not war. Spread kind vibes.

All of these sentiments, and many more, are reflected on small, colorful circles attached to an 8-foot peace pole — similar to a maypole.

“People can put whatever peace means to them [on the circles] and write on the peace pole itself as well,” said Lawrence Gerstein, director of the Center for Peace and Conflict Studies.

“We’re spreading the message to people and making commitments to spread peace.”

The purpose of the pole is to honor those who have died over the years in April as a result of tragedies and to promote nonviolence on campus and in the community, Gerstein said.

Some of the most horrific acts of violence in recent history happened in April — the Oklahoma City bombing that killed 168 people, the Boston Marathon bombing that killed three people, the Columbine High School massacre where 15 people died and the Virginia Tech

massacre that left 33 people dead.

In addition to the temporary, moveable pole that’s traveling around campus this year, a permanent peace pole will come to campus in April 2018.

Gerstein said he doesn’t know what the design of it will be yet, but they’re working with the Glick Glass Center to figure things out.

“The face of the pole will have ‘peace’ written in the many different languages spoken at Ball State — a diverse representation of the language of peace,” Gerstein said. “Hopefully by doing something positive and displaying a commitment to it on campus, it’ll ripple.”

Molly Gates, a senior child development and child life major, wrote “Love yourself” on her colorful circle.

Her reasoning is that people need to be able to love themselves to love others.

“If many people are involved, there could be a chain reaction to see what people think peace is,” Gates said.

The center hopes to get 3,000 circles strung onto the peace pole in the next three days. The pole was in the Art and Journalism Building Tuesday, and will be in the L.A. Pittenger Student Center from 11 a.m. to 5 p.m. today and Bracken Library from 1 to 4 p.m. Thursday.

With the competition season beginning in early September, the team has worked hard the past couple of months, traveling to tournaments and preparing for nationallevel competitions.

“It feels incredible to be a part of the leadership that helped propel the team to a top-ten finish,” Arnett said. “I am incredibly proud of this team and the hard work they put into this sixth-place finish.”

For now, the team will spend the rest of the school year catching up on work missed while they were gone for a week at the national tournament and begin looking for topics and scripts for next year, Moore said.

“The 2016-17 team is one of our best teams we've had in recent history,” she said. “These are serious students who are ambitious and willing to work towards their goals. They have impressed judges across the country and continually surprise the coaching staff with their talents.”

The Ball State Speech Team finished in sixth place at the National Forensic Association National Championship Tournament this weekend. For the sixth year in a row, the team placed in the top ten schools at the NFA tournament.

KEN HOLLAND Continued from page 1

“Since his arrival on campus in 2008, Ken has been a strong ambassador for Ball State, helping open doors to countries around the world and bringing outstanding international faculty and students to our campus,” Buck said.

At Ball State, he helps implement grants at Afghan universities to aid with their growth. Now, instead of giving advice to universities, he’ll be running one.

Holland first visited Afghanistan in 2006 and said his heart broke looking at the heavily damaged schools. Almost all of the faculty had left or been killed, and students were desperate for education.

Over the years, he’s visited Afghanistan more than 60 times and has seen the education field become much more professional. Students have come to the U.S. to get their master’s degrees and then gone back to Afghanistan to teach.

“I saw the level of education rise tremendously when we started coming back,” Holland said. “Watching the progress makes it very rewarding.”

As president, Holland will help AUAF recover from a terrorist attack last August, when militants armed with a car bomb, grenades and automatic weapons killed at least 14 people during a 10-hour attack, according to NBC. The university just resumed classes in March after making significant security improvements, according to a university press release.

“Among the dozens of highly qualified candidates, Dr. Holland stood out as having the background, experience, vision and drive that AUAF needs to move to the next level of its mission of educating the future leaders of Afghanistan,” Huda Farouki, AUAF Board of Trustees Chair, said in a press release.

Holland will begin at AUAF June 1.

He already has a network of Afghan friends and colleagues, so he doesn’t think the transition will be too difficult.

“It’ll be a more rich experience for me, having daily contact with Afghan people,” Holland said.

SGA completes over half of platform points

Summit achieved 17 of its proposed 25 points

Sara Barker Administration Reporter In one year, the Student Government Association’s governing body completed over half of its numerous platform points.

Summit, this year’s executive board, fully completed 17 of its 25 proposed platform points, mostly completed five points and somewhat completed three points.

FULLY COMPLETE: • The connection of minority students with peer and faculty mentors.

• Diversity commission.

• The Cardinal Pride.

• Small organizations with Office of Student Life and SGA.

• BSU and Muncie communities.

• Student Appreciation Day. • Counseling services.

• Academic support initiatives.

• Conversations on oppression.

• Pothole of the Month.

• Sexual assault education and awareness.

• Diversity Day. • News from the Nest.

• Cardinal Kitchen.

• Leadership Fund.

• Tailgate Central.

• Lunch Board.

MOSTLY COMPLETE: •E nvironmental initiatives.

• The safety of students on and off campus.

•R elationship between SGA and BSU students.

• Affordable, healthy food options.

• Cultural training initiative.

SOMEWHAT COMPLETE: • The relationship with advisers.

• Study locations on campus.

• Engagement with international students.

To SGA President James Wells, the most important platform point was sexual assault education and awareness, which was completed in the form of a summit of Indiana student leaders.

“This has been one of the first years that at least most of the student body presidents from around the state have been in contact with each other,” Wells said. “It’s not easy to get multiple schools together, but to at least come together, address it, talk about and share that information with each other was beyond my wildest dreams.”

And Wells has seen a change in the way Ball State addresses sexual assault — most recently with the White Ribbon Initiative.

If given more time, Wells said he would have strengthened SGA’s social media presence and communication apparatus. “[SGA social media] is active and I hope students are paying attention to it,” Wells said. “I hope OPTiC really takes it to the next step and really [is] able to do more with it, especially after we created a communications team this year.”

However, it’s up to OPTiC whether to take on the unfinished platform points from this academic year.

“Even though we weren’t able to get some of the legislation through because we had a lot this year, a lot more proposed than last year, I hope [SGA president-elect Greg Carbó] is able to take what we started this year and continue to work on that,” Wells said.

Miller said having a Chipotle on McGalliard would bring in a lot of profit for the company because of the other restaurants on that road and the high vehicle traffic.

“It would be cool to have one on Ball State’s campus but I really want all of Muncie to benefit from the restaurant, not just Ball State students,” Miller said.

Miller plans to send the petition to Chipotle Mexican Grill as well as Muncie Mayor Dennis Tyler.

“I really want to make this a reality so if anyone who has experience with business knows how to do this better than I than I would love to work with them,” Miller said.

Quinn Kelsey, communications and public relations manager for Chipotle Mexican Grill, said while they are thrilled to see the enthusiasm to bring Chipotle to nearer to Ball State, they currently don’t have any plans to open a restaurant in Muncie.

“While we’d love to be able to satisfy those burrito cravings in between classes and study sessions, we don’t currently have plans to open a restaurant in Muncie at the moment,” Kelsey said.

Kelsey said they are always looking for new places to open and to “stay patient, Ball State, and maybe we’ll get there before too long.”
