CMU, FA have fewer than four weeks to bargain

By Jake Bolitho Staff Reporter

The Central Michigan University administration and Faculty Association have fewer than 20 business days to bargain after the issuance of fact-finding results last week.

If no deal is reached within that time frame, it could mean another FA job action in late November. However, labor law experts say such a

scenario is unlikely.

“It’s reasonable to say that a well-researched factfinding report will very likely have an impact on thoughtful people,” said Robert McCormick, a labor law professor at the Michigan State University College of Law. “You can’t predict it, but I think thoughtful people will say, ‘I may disagree, but will go forward with the fact-finder’s recommendation.’”

Appointed state fact-finder Barry Goldman issued a report Tuesday favoring CMU’s administration on the economic issues of salary and benefits. However, he sided with the FA on the issue of retirement and promotion increments.

Both sides returned to the bargaining table on Friday for seven and half hours with no significant progress made.

FA President Laura Frey said

there will be another negotiation session this week.

McCormick pointed to a similar situation with Eastern Michigan University’s faculty in 2006 when a state fact-finder was brought in to make recommendations in response to a faculty strike.

He said the final report from the fact-finder proved influential in helping the two sides reach an agreement in the weeks following its release.

CMU would also have the option of imposing a contract on the faculty if the two sides remain at a standstill, according to law experts.

However, the Public Employee Relations Act does not define a set amount of days after fact-finding in which a unit of government can do so.

Rather, it varies from employer to employer.

SGA, Charles V. Park Library agree on extended hours

By Logan Patmon Staff Reporter

The Charles V. Park Library will further open its extended study room hours from 2 to 3 a.m. beginning next semester.

The change is the result of talks between Vince Cavataio, a Shelby Township senior and Student Government Association President, and University Libraries Dean Thomas Moore.

“If students are continuously using the extended study until 3 a.m., the library staff is willing to keep it open until 4 a.m.,” Cavataio said.

The library is also planning to keep the first floor open on a trial bases.

“In February, we will keep the first floor open and it will have hours similar to that of the extended study room,” Moore said. ‘This will open up around an additional 130 seats and almost 20 computers.”

The first floor trial would keep the entire first floor, including the Baber Room, open later Sunday through Thursday.

Students have mixed feelings about the extension of the library’s hours.

Health professions has least number of program ratings

Pre-Vet Club hosts Doggie Dash, raises money for HATS, conference

By Danielle Cywka | Staff Reporter

By Mike Nichols Senior Reporter

The Pre-Veterinary Club finally answered the age-old question Saturday of who let the dogs out.

The club hosted the Doggie Dash, which gave students and community members an opportunity to pay a small fee to walk shelter dogs on campus. About 35 people attended the event, raising about $200.

Club Vice President Emily Denryter, a St. Clair Shores senior, said she was pleased with the turnout.

“We’ve had quite a few people come out and walk dogs, and then donate as well,” she said. “Everyone looks really happy after they’re done and I think a lot of students miss their dogs and are excited to be able to play with the dogs.”

Escanaba freshman Heather Beaudoin said it was missing her dog at home that motivated her to attend.

“I miss and love my dog so much and I saw the sign and immediately came in here,” she said.

Jackson freshman Alyssa Ehlmann said she enjoyed attending because she has also been away from her dog.

Editors note: This is the fourth story in a series about Academic Prioritization.

Ypsilanti sophomore Samantha Houston waves a sign to bring attention to the Doggie Dash put on by the CMU Pre-Vet club Saturday morning at the corner of Wa s h i n g to n and Preston Street by Wesley Church.

“Come play with the dogs at Wesley!

They will love you!” Houston yelled as she waved the sign.

The Academic Prioritization report has recommended four programs be eliminated from the College of Health Professions.

The college had a total of 31 programs rated — the least of any colleges except the incomplete College of Medicine. Five programs were ranked Priority 1, six programs in Priority 2, seven programs in Priority 3, eight programs in Priority 4 and five programs in Priority 5.

Every Health Professions program in Priority 5 is recommended for elimination, with one exception: on-campus Physical Education, Athletic Administration (MA).

Provost Gary Shapiro wrote in his comments on the report he recommends moving the program to the College of Education and Human Services, combined with an MA in teaching and coaching.

He said the nutrition and dietetics graduate program, ranked in Priority 2 in CEHS, is recommended to be moved to HP. “Why did we do this? Is it to save money? No,” Shapiro said at the prioritization forum Oct. 31. “I’m assuming every dollar we save will go to our highest priority programs.”

However, not everyone agreed programs should be cut.

“I don’t think any major should be eliminated,” said Canton junior Jason Oldani.

Turkey Trot brings friends, families together

By Jessica Fecteau Senior Reporter

Twelve year-old Marcus Jackson chased his sisters around Deerfield County Park on Sunday afternoon while warming up for the big race ahead of them.

“I’ll try to do my best,” the Mount Pleasant resident said.

He joined his sisters and foster parents for the 37th annual Turkey Trot 6K Trail Run sponsored by the Mount Pleasant Striders Running Club.

Mount Pleasant resident Rob McConnell said he and his wife run a non-profit foster home where children come voluntarily. His four daughters and foster child are all members of Striders.

“Some (of the children) like to do it because they like to run, some like to do it because the other kids do it,” McConnell said.

Striders President Kennen White said the race is an excuse to run and have fun for the runners, who ranged in age from 9 to 80 years old.

“About 40 to 50 people run the four-mile loop on the trails,” he said. “After the race we have a cookout with hot dogs for everyone.”

Striders Treasurer Mike Georgia said there is an overall male winner and overall female.

“Each winner gets a can of turkey Spam,” he said. “Every participant gets a little turkey statue as a premium.”

Recreation Parks and Leisure Services Professor Patty Janes said the turkey statues are a badge of honor in her

household.

“I love the opportunity to run with my children, it is the highlight of my running life,” she said. “This is our second year doing the run and we have statues from past years at home.”

As the runners headed off onto the trail when the clock struck three, Janes made a special dart back.

“This is our favorite place to run,” she said as she started the race. metro@cm-life.com

Steve Smith, director of public relations, did not have a timeline for the case of CMU. “It remains the university’s intent to reach an agreement that is fair and equitable to both parties through collective bargaining, using the fact-finder’s report as a basis for future negotiations,” he said.

Frey has said the faculty would consider voting on another job action if such a move were to take place.

The previously voted for job action was a work stoppage that lasted for part of the first day of fall semester classes, before administrators gained an Isabella County court injunction to return professors to the classroom.

“I miss my dog, but now I’m in such a better mood,” she said. “It was so much fun, and the dogs are so cute.”

Club President and Holland junior Angela Miedema explained the idea behind the dog walk.

“We usually do a dog wash in the spring, but we wanted something we could do in colder temperatures as well,” she said.

It cost $3 to walk a dog for 15 minutes and $5 for 30 minutes. The money collectthe change would make a big difference.

“Most people I know just use the computer labs where they live at because they are open 24 hours,” she said.

“The agreement signed by Judge (Paul) Chamberlain is in effect until 20 business days after the issuance of the fact-finding report,” Frey said. “I am hopeful that the administration will show its concern for students by bargaining in good faith with the FA bargaining team.”

McCormick said one major benefit of fact-finding is that the results are made public. Opening up both positions tends to speed up the process as both sides feel more pressure to get a deal done.

The fact-finder’s recommendations are significant, but not final, he said.

“It has the ability to persuade the public that the findings are correct,” McCormick said. “I would assume that the influence is there.”

THOUSANDS GATHER OUTSIDE WHITE HOUSE TO PROTEST PLANNED OIL PIPELINE WASHINGTON D.C. — Thousands of protesters encircled the White House Sunday in a show of numbers intended to persuade President Barack Obama to stop a proposed oil pipeline from being built.

The Keystone XL pipeline would stretch 1,661 miles from Alberta, Canada, to Texas’ Gulf Coast, and requires presidential approval because it crosses the U.S.Canada border. Environmentalists say the project is a key test of Obama’s environmental credentials.

Protesters first heard from prominent environmentalists, a preacher, a Nobel laure-

ate, and a movie star, and then gathered to hold hands in a ring that stretched in front of the White House and several blocks down sidestreets before joining behind the White House lawn. Organizers estimated that the crowd exceeded 10,000 people.

“You can’t occupy the White House, but you can surround it,” said environmentalist and protest organizer Bill McKibben, in a reference to the Occupy Wall Street movement.

With the failure of climate change legislation on Capitol Hill last year, environmentalists have made stopping the Keystone pipeline their major focus in recent months.

They want the president to reject the pipeline because

of the risks of spills and what they say is the likely impact on global warming from tapping Canada’s oil sands. The thick crude from the oil sands produces more heat-trapping carbon-dioxide emissions than regular oil because of the extra energy required to extract and process it.

“That is the second biggest pool of carbon on the planet.

If the U.S. government goes ahead and makes it easier to develop that oil-sands project, then there is no credible way to insist that they’re working hard on climate change,” McKibben said.

Many people waved blue signs quoting Obama from 2007: “Let’s be the generation that finally frees America from the tyranny of oil.”

“It should be your choice.”

Oldani is majoring in health administration. His program was ranked as a Priority 2.

“Solid program; needs to be proactive in enrollment management consistent with a doctoral program, improvements in research needed,” Shapiro said.

Oldani agreed overall with Shapiro’s comments, but feels more is still needed to develop the program.

“I think it is a pretty solid program,” he said. “I just wish there was more to it. There’s a lot of students, but not a lot of classes for the students to take.”

Oldani said eliminating programs runs a risk of hurting the university in the long run.

About one-third of CMU academic programs are ranked in the report to either receive less support or be targeted for elimination.

mind over murder Mystery dinner raises money for St. Jude Children’s Hospital

By Catey Traylor | Staff Reporter

Zeta Theta Pi hosted an evening of schmoozing, secrecy and scandals on Saturday at the Comfort Inn, 2424 S. Mission St. The Hollywood-themed murder mystery dinner served as one of three events hosted by the sorority throughout the year in support of their philanthropy, St. Jude Children’s Hospital.

About 70 people came dressed to theme, and each guest received a role to play throughout the evening. The dinner raised more than $1,400.

“I absolutely love dressing up, and it sounded like a lot of fun,” said Detroit graduate student Jessica Matyas. “I ended up playing a lead role as an investigator and had a lot of fun with it.”

When dinner began at 6:15 p.m., the plot of the mystery was explained. The story featured an actress found dead after being cast in a lead role of a movie.

Her rivals and the casting director were the main suspects.

At 7:30 p.m, the lights went out, a scream was heard and the actress was dead. The guests used various clues to determine who her assailant was.

“Everybody had a lot of fun using clues and uncovering new details,” said Grand Rapids junior Kalee Stegehuis. “We gave out fake money so people could bribe one another to get more information. It was a giant race to solve the mystery first.”

“We’ve supported St. Jude since 2007,” Stegehuis said.

“All of the money we raise tonight will go to the hos-

pital. It’s for a really good cause and a lot of people are involved.”

Throughout the night, raffle tickets were sold and prizes including gift cards to Celebration Cinema, 4935 E, Pickard St., Papa John’s Pizza coupons, 1504 S. Mission St., and gift baskets were given away.

“From raffle tickets alone we made $124 for St. Jude,” said sorority sister Katie Kallenbach. “It’s nice to give back to our philanthropy.”

At the end of the night, participants guessed who the killer was and had the opportunity to vote for best dressed, best hair, best actor and actress, and funniest character. Winners of each category received a Zeta Theta Pi “Emmy” award.

Kallenbach was one of two who offered to run the

The university bargaining team presented a list of tenure salaries at 10 universities it deemed comparable during fact-finding hearings to aid the contract stalemate between Central Michigan University and the Faculty Association.

CMU’s comparable universities vary in the status of their faculty contracts, enrollment and studentfaculty ratios. Half of these universities do not have unionized tenure-track faculty.

The FA is still in negotiations with CMU after its contract expired June 30.

Fact-finder Barry Goldman released his nonbinding recommendation Monday, favoring CMU in economic issues of salary and benefits.

Kent State University is in negotiations to approve a contract for their tenuretrack faculty, said Thomas Neumann, KSU’s associate vice president of University Communications and Marketing.

Faculty at Bowling Green State University voted last year to unionize, and the university is now in contract negotiations, said David Kielmeyer, senior

communications director at BGSU. The tenure-track faculty contract at Ball State University is renewed every summer, said Joan Todd, executive director of Public Relations at BSU. Eastern Michigan University’s two-year tenuretrack faculty contract expires in summer 2012, said Geoff Larcom, executive director of Media Relations at EMU. Western Michigan University approved a threeyear contract for its tenure-track faculty in May that does not expire until spring 2014, said Cheryl Roland, WMU’s executive director of University relations.

WMU is the only comparable university that is developing a medical school.

Faculty at Illinois State University, James Madison University, Miami University, Middle Tennessee State University and University of Louisiana at Lafayette are not unionized. Virginia, Tennessee and Louisiana are Right to Work states.

Speaker will appear in Anspach Monday, Tuesday

By Ben Harris Senior Reporter

Popular arguments concerning policy toward illegal immigrants will be challenged on Monday and Tuesday night by visiting speaker Michael Blake.

As an associate professor in the University of Washington’s philosophy and public affairs department, Blake has done research on dissecting arguments for the obligations of countries to support immigrants and refugees.

Blake will speak at two events. The first is a philosophy colloquium, Immigration, Causation and Complicity, running from 5 to 7 p.m. Monday in Anspach 155. The second event, Equality Without Documents, will run from 7 to 9 p.m. Tuesday also in Anspach 155.

“The area of immigra-

tion is an area not paid a great deal of attention to in philosophy, and Blake is focusing on some pretty important topics and ones that are in need of some careful thinking,” said Andrew Blom, an assistant professor of philosophy and religion.

Blake’s visit is part of a series of events hosted by the Center for Professional and Personal Ethics for November as Human Rights Month.

Blom said the Monday night event will be a colloquium focusing on two questions.

The first will address the argument that countries that displace people by ways such as military action have an obligation to harbor them as refugees.

The second is whether countries that accept the luxury of cheap goods because of the labor of illegal, undocumented immigrants have have an obligation to let them stay in the country.

Annual Issue Day, RSO Fair hosts about 20 student groups

By David Oltean Senior Reporter

Students from nearly 20 student groups spoke with passion about social, political and environmental issues Saturday morning in Powers Hall.

The 11th Annual Issue Day, sponsored by The Mary Ellen Brandell Volunteer Center, was held to give Central Michigan University student organizations and faculty the opportunity to present on current issues or showcase their cause in the Registered Student Organization Fair.

The event consisted of three presentations where 18 different topics were addressed, ranging from America’s involvement in Iraq to prescrip-

tion drug abuse to Autism awareness. A student organization fair was held throughout the day, where students were given the opportunity to become involved with the student groups in attendance and learn more about the causes.

Detroit senior Adam Lawrence represented his organization, CMU Society of the United Nations, at Issue Day. Lawrence also gave a presentation with other members of his organization about Palestine’s bid to become the 194th member of the United Nations.

“We help draft, organize and create legislation as if we were UN delegates,” Lawrence said. “Last semester, we won

in our first award since 1994 when this was started. It’s very important that we keep the tradition alive.”

Illinois junior Taylor Galmarini, the special events coordinator for the volunteer center, helped to plan the event and find passionate speakers that she felt could deliver impacting presentations.

“I was so excited to have so many RSOs involved this year,” Galmarini said. “Not only are the students enthusiastic about the subject, but they all seem so well-educated and passionate about their causes.”

Detroit sophomore Vincent Thurman attended Issue Day to represent his student organization, Comfort Zone. Thur-

man said Comfort Zone aims to challenge students to talk about and accept each other’s differences. “(Comfort Zone) is a social development group that hopes to get people to learn to interact on a deeper level and see differences as a way to bring us together rather than separate us,” he said.

Thurman said that Issue Day was great to showcase his student group, as well as a wide variety of others.

“There are political groups, groups concentrating on social issues, Greek life, philanthropic groups and more, so the goals are very diverse,” he said. studentlife@cm-life.com

Health educator to discuss substance abuse, safety CMU alumnus will speak at UC auditorium

By Ben Harris Senior Reporter

Matt Vogel said when it comes to substance abuse, he isn’t interested in preaching to anyone.

The Central Michigan University alumnus who works as a health educator at Southern Oregon University will present from 7 to 9 p.m. Tuesday in the Bovee University Center Auditorium.

“I try to be very pragmatic. I don’t believe in a lot of the preaching and fingerwagging that we’ve done to college kids about substance abuse,” Vogel said.

“I try to be really honest about it, talk about it openly, have frank discussions and give honest information. That allows students to have conversations they don’t normally have.”

Vogel said most conversations students have with authority figures about substance use are one-sided and are focused wanting students to not use at all.

“Regarding substance use, when we’re overly condoning and/or overly condemning, it leaves

young people at risk,” Vogel said.

Program Board Vice President Miranda Endres said Vogel’s presentation will not be the prohibitioncentered talk students are used to. She said he talks more about how and why substances are used.

“People might get turned off at the fact that they think the lecture is about drugs and alcohol, but that’s not what his program is about,” the New Baltimore junior said. “We’re trying to spin the part of it that it’s more like awareness and not prohibition.”

Endres said Vogel, being a CMU alumnus, was helpful because he is knowledgeable about the area and culture of Mount Pleasant.

“He’s all about how you use and why you use,” Endres said. “He’s not going to teach you how to do heroin, but he wants people to be more responsible.”

Vogel said he would love to see a full house on Tuesday because students have good things to say about his lectures.

“I definitely feel that I consistently get positive feedback from students,” Vogel said. “I feel that in a lot of ways they’re craving this kind of discussion.” studentlife@cm-life.com

Yusef Shakur to deliver speech in EHS Building tonight at 7 Former prisoner tells story of his life, lessons

Community Days gives back to Mount Pleasant’s in-need

By Jordan Oster Staff Reporter

Those looking for a helping hand found many reaching out to them on Saturday.

Community Compassion Network donated food to families in need during starting at 8 a.m. Community Days at Mount Pleasant Community Church, 1400 W. Broomfield Road.

“It’s an opportunity for us to reach out to the community and to show them love,” said Community Compassion Network Director Brad Stutzman, who got involved with Community Days three years ago as a volunteer and is now in charge of organizing the event.

The event featured activities at the church and throughout the community. Activities held at the church included a free pancake breakfast, bingo and free haircuts and manicures.

Children’s activities included cookie decorating and Christmas gifts for children to wrap

for their parents.

The most emphasis was placed on the food distribution — the event’s main purpose.

“Every family that comes through here today will get roughly 50 to 60 pounds of food, which includes produce, baked goods, meats, cans of soup, vegetables and more,” Stutzman said.

Groups of Central Michigan University volunteers passed out food for families, raking leaves around the community, chopped wood to help families heat their homes and winterized homes in Mount Pleasant’s mobile home park.

Students from the physical therapy school also offered blood pressure checks.

“We can’t tell CMU and its students thank you enough for the fundraising efforts and the partnership and the volunteer hours,” Stutzman said. “It’s incredible.”

Canton senior Sarah Glunt volunteered with her sorority Zeta Theta Pi. The sorority is a CMU local service sorority

that helps with mobile food drives in Mount Pleasant.

“My favorite part of Community Days is getting to know the people in the community and just being able to make their day and see the smile on their face,” Glunt said.

CMU Honors Program is Community Compassion Network’s second-largest donor.

Grosse Ile junior and Honors mentor Zack Kowalski said participating in Community Days was part of their yearly philanthropy project.

“We are coming here to help support the community,” he said. “We did fundraising events and now the students get to see what kinds of things they’ve done and what their money is going to.”

Stutzman said the event was about giving back to Mount Pleasant.

“We don’t want to be the best church in the community, we want to be the best church for the community,” Stutzman said.

Motivational speaker Yusef Shakur wasn’t always the positive role model he aims to be today.

Shakur, who used to be involved in a Detroit gang and served nine years in prison, will speak at Central Michigan University tonight in the Education and Human Services Building’s room 118.

Shakur, a former Jackson State Prison inmate, has since dedicated his life to positive change and educating youth about his wrongs in the past. The speech will begin at 7 p.m. and is free to attend.

Shakur transformed his life after his stint in prison,

where he met his father for the first time behind bars.

Shakur is now an author, business-owner and activist who hopes to make a positive impact in his former neighborhood and on youth throughout the nation.

Professor of sociology David Kinney helped to plan Shakur’s presentation at CMU and had the opportunity to meet him when he spoke at Oasis Alternative High School, 3350 S. Isabella Road, last year.

Kinney believes Shakur can deliver an inspiring message to CMU students by speaking about his past hardships and experiences. “(Shakur) has been through a great deal of adversity and has overcome a lot of difficult situations in his life,” Kinney said. “Now, it’s all about positive social change for him and he tries to inspire young people by speaking about his experiences.”

Mount Pleasant resident

Marsha Biggs, a former teacher at Oasis Alternative High School, has met Shakur multiple times and helped to coordinate his speech at the school last winter.

“When he spoke, he talked about his time on the streets of Detroit and his transformation in prison,” Biggs said. “He’s a changed person today.”

Biggs said she thought Shakur had an interesting method to delivering his speech. Rather than instructing young people what to do, Biggs said Shakur speaks about his past and lets the students make judgments for themselves.

“I think it was different than your average speech,” Biggs said. “He didn’t tell them what to do or not to do. He just spoke about his experiences and let the students ask questions.” studentlife@cm-life.com

Students will shoot baskets in a 3-on-3 tournament Nov. 13 to support a conference for sports careers.

Students in physical education and sport instructor Scott Hirko’s PES 550: Sport Fundraising class are hosting Shooting for Success.

The basketball tournament will be held from 8:30 a.m. to 5 p.m. at the Student Activity Center.

The goal of the fundraiser is to fund the Sport Management Association’s second Professional Development Conference, which Nathan Kopp described as being “aimed at students who wish to have a career in sports.”

Kopp is the assistant director at the Center for Global Sport Leadership at Central Michigan University.

“There are no other events like the Professional Development Conference at CMU,” Kopp said.

“Many other premiere sports management programs across the country host similar events. The conference was something I created last year because I felt like there was a need and it would advance our program tremendously.”

Oxford senior Nicole Laidlaw, one of the PES 550 students, said the conference is a way for students to learn from professionals in the industry and network with them.

The sales pitch created by the students, provided

by Hirko, states supporting the fundraiser “will help with the conference by also welcoming guests from the sports industry to share their knowledge and experiences.”

As for the fundraiser itself, the tournament consists of all-male and allfemale teams. These teams are separated by divisions based on age groups. The age groups are middle school, high school, college students and community members.

The games will be double elimination, and there will also be raffles to win great prizes.

Registration for the event is currently open. Check-in begins at 8:45 a.m. and the games begin at 10 a.m. stud entlife@cm-life.com

No exceptions for bullying Bullying should be firmly discouraged and punished in all cases, but apparently Republicans in the state Senate would like to leave room for some exceptions to the rules.

On Wednesday, the Michigan Senate approved legislation requiring all school districts to have anti-bullying policies. But while the bill should be prohibiting bullying in every instance, it instead leaves large loopholes telling bullies how to avoid punishment.

According to an article in the Detroit Free Press, a last-minute addition to the bill states schools cannot make rules that “prohibit a statement of a sincerely held religious belief or moral conviction of a school employee, school volunteer, pupil or a pupil’s parent or guardian.”

You want to torment someone and tell them they are going to hell for being gay? Sure, if that’s your religious belief, go right ahead. Do you have a strong moral conviction about how wrong it is to be fat? Feel free to make fun of the kids that are a little chunkier.

Sound awful? Well it is. This is not even remotely OK. What are we doing here? Exceptions for religious beliefs? Where is the separation of church and state?

And as far as moral convictions, I’m pretty sure anyone who voted in favor of this despicable excuse for “antibullying” law is lacking in the morals department.

This is not “anti” anything. This is a pro-bullying law.

Imagine a crying child in the principal’s office, sitting next to the kid who has been making their life miserable and all he has to say is, “I said that because the Bible told me so. Can I go now?” Unbelievable.

Cloaking hate, intolerance and cruelty in expressions of religious and moral beliefs is deplorable. We should be encouraging kindness and compassion for all children, instead of allowing bullies to get away with bullying if their reasons pass the test.

This bill, which now moves on to the state House, is known as “Matt’s Safe School Law.” It’s named after Matt Epling, a 14-year-old boy who killed himself in 2002 after being harassed by anti-gay bullies. His father has been working with Michigan lawmakers for years to establish antibullying legislation, and this is what he gets?

I’d ask all who voted in favor of this bill to be required to explain their rationale to the children facing misery in school each day, telling them why a bully is not being punished for their statements of “religious or moral” beliefs.

Or better yet, explain to grieving parents why their dead child’s tormentors were allowed to spew vicious, hurtful remarks with no consequences.

I’m sure they’ll be so thankful for this new law.

EDITORIAL | Unanswered questions remain surrounding CMED

Divided destiny

“A house divided against itself cannot stand.”

Abraham Lincoln, and Mark the Apostle before him, may not have been thinking of Central Michigan University’s College of Medicine when they said the famous phrase, but their words ring clear in the predicament surrounding its development.

As reported in Friday’s edition of Central Michigan Life, none of the other several Michigan universities developing medical schools have encountered even a fraction of the opposition CMU has from faculty and students.

Does this mean we are simply unwilling to see the potential for financial and academic gain from the university, blinded by selfish desires for higher pay, lower tuition and more support for current programs?

No. While it is not our intention to put words in the mouth of CMU’s administration, this seems to be its general response to the mounting opposition to CMED: “Look at the big picture.”

“It serves a clear need in the community.”

“It will be a money-maker.”

The administration has to acknowledge the concerns of its students and its faculty, two essential elements the university

cannot exist without.

One of Academic Senate’s biggest issues with CMED as it stands was represented by Phil Squattrito, former A-Senate Chairman and current chemistry professor, on Tuesday.

“At the heart of this motion is to get the university to be more forthcoming on the medical school,” he said.

Senators took issue with a lack of detail and transparency on the costs of CMED. These problems are coming from an administration which refuses to be forthcoming with CMED information while the president vows to fight for transparency.

“We must also acknowledge the challenges of access to students, affordability in terms of controlling costs and tuition, ensuring a strong foundation of quality in all that we do, and accountability — being accountable and responsible through transparency in our role as educators,” University President George Ross said in a statement to the university published in CM Life on Oct. 26.

While it’s well and good to say the university is committed to being transparent, actions speak louder than words, and A-Senate has a very good point against CMED and the administration.

Furthermore, it is clear the administration has not convinced our alumni of the importance of the venture, as CMED is, of last mention, somewhere around the halfway point of its $25-million fundraising goal, having remained stagnant there for months.

Contrast this with the $100 million donation Western Michigan University received for its medical school in March, and the dichotomy of support for each initiative becomes eminently clear.

CMED is an outlier in a set of universities happily progressing toward medical schools, and even if it does manage to reach accreditation and completion, it will never be more than an oversized — and empty — trophy case without the support of the students and faculty surrounding it.

So if you do not support the College of Medicine, let your voice be heard while it can make a difference. If you are supportive of CMED, then you should speak up as well. Our current system of muffled criticism is finally coming to an end, and it’s time for opinions to be shared openly and honestly.

The administration can only bury its head so deep in the sand before the crescendo of opposition reaches it.

KIM PATISHNOCK [CENTRAL SQUARE]

[LETTER TO THE EDITOR]

Decision making shrouded in mystery If there were ever any doubt about campus frustration over the disregard for shared governance by this Central Michigan University administration, the overwhelming Academic Senate vote on Nov. 1 to suspend further academic action involving the CMU College of Medicine ought to put that doubt to rest.

However, there is also no doubt that the administration wants a medical school at any cost, despite the concerns expressed by students, faculty, department chairs, academic senators and even Central Michigan Life.

Sadly, many students and faculty, including myself, also want a medical school-but not at any cost. We are frustrated by the process by which the medical school proposal was adopted and further frustrated with the fact that after almost three years, we still are not being told how this will be funded and what the real cost will be to the CMU learning environment for our students and faculty. In a university environment where a free exchange of ideas and information ought to flourish, we face a rush to judgment on a medical school decisionCentral Michigan Life serves the CMU and Mount Pleasant communities, and is under the jurisdiction of the independent Student Media Board of Directors. Neil C. Hopp serves as Director of Student Media at CMU and is the adviser to the newspaper. Articles and opinions do not necessarily reflect the position or opinions of Central Michigan University. Central

making process shrouded in mystery.

On Nov. 13-16, a medical school accrediting team (LCME) will visit CMU to explore accrediting the proposed medical school. Examining the tentative schedule for the team, I see virtually no opportunity for students and non-CMED faculty to express their views on the proposed new college. Like every other aspect of this topdown decision-making process, the vast majority of the faculty and students will again be kept at arm’s length.

The proposed new medical school will forever change CMU and we all will be in some way paying for this new medical school whether we support it or not. Therefore, I suggest in the interest of fairness and transparency that representatives of the CMU community as a whole (not just those with a vested interest in the proposed medical school) be given a meaningful role in this decision-making process.

If the administration does not want to hear from those concerned about the ramifications of the proposed medical school, then those students and faculty Michigan Life is a member of the Associated Press, the Michigan Press Association, the Michigan Collegiate Press Association, the Associated Collegiate Press, College Newspaper Business & Advertising Managers Association, the Mount Pleasant Area Chamber of Commerce, Central Michigan Home Builders Association, Mount Pleasant Housing Association and the

should take the opportunity to express their views to the LCME accrediting team. Accordingly, if you have strong views of support or concern regarding the proposed medical school and feel your views need to be heard, you can express them to the LCME accrediting team before they arrive next week for their campus visit. Their email address is: lcme@aamc.org.

Both those deeply concerned about and those strongly supporting the proposed medical school want what is best for CMU. However, the CMU community cannot intelligently make such a determination without a free flow of information and dialogue.

I would hope the administration would adjust the LCME visitation schedule to create a meaningful opportunity to dialogue with all parts of the CMU community and not just those with a vested interest in seeing the proposed medical school become a reality.

If not, a flurry of emails to LCME will have to do.

You can look but you can’t judge I cannot help but feel that there are tons of people who continue to judge others based on their appearance.

As a young black woman on campus, I have received many comments that I do not appreciate.

Why do people think because I am a woman I cannot play sports?

When I go to the Student Activity Center to play basketball, I get tons of looks. Then when I ask to play a game with the guys, they look at me as if I am joking.

Why do people think because I am black I like fried chicken with hot sauce?

A friend asked me the other day why all black people like fried chicken. I told her that I do not know what every black person likes because we all live different lives.

Why do people think because I am a freshman I cannot possibly be responsible, level-headed and involved with things on campus?

People are shocked when I tell them that I am involved with community service on campus, I write for Central Michigan Life and I have not been to one party.

Why do people judge?

I wish I could say it does not hurt to be labeled as a stereotypical young black woman, and I wish I could say that it is easy to brush the comments away and forget about them.

It does hurt and it is not easy to just forget about the comments.

Although it is 2011 and we have a black president, prejudice continues to be an issue.

Granted, as Americans, we have made much progress. We are more accepting and diverse than 48 years ago when Martin Luther King Jr. led his March on Washington for Jobs and Freedom, but I worry that we have gotten comfortable with stereotyping others.

I highly doubt there was a study done to show that the majority of black people eat fried chicken or the majority of freshman are irresponsible.

I guess it would be too much to ask that everybody just forget about the stereotypes and start to learn more about an individual before they judge them.

At the end of the day, we all live different lives and have different likes and dislikes.

When people judge me I feel it takes away from their ability to see me as an individual.

India Arie’s song ‘I am Not my Hair’ says it best: “I am not my hair, I am not my skin, I am not your expectation but I am a soul that lives within.”

Chippewas lose to Kent State on missed last second field goal

By Matt thompson Assistant Sports Editor

KENT, Ohio — “Wide left.”

Those two words haunt field goal kickers, and they crept up on David Harman as he hooked a 28-yard field goal wide left on the last play of the game Friday night.

The kick would have sent the game into overtime, but it didn’t and Central Michigan lost to Kent State 24-21 at Dix Stadium.

“He should’ve probably made that,” said CMU freshman wide receiver Titus Davis.

With nine seconds left, CMU head coach Dan Enos decided to play for overtime and not try another pass at the end zone for the win. He had quarterback Ryan Radcliff squirm a few steps to the middle of the field, falling and setting up the kicker.

“I wanted to take that shot so bad,” Davis said.

Kent State quarterback Spencer

Keith threw for 281 yards and all three of the Golden Flashes touchdowns. He was averaging 106 yards passing a game coming in with only four touchdowns all season.

“When you’re winning, it feels a lot better than losing,” Keith said.

The Chippewas fell to a 14-0 lead early, but stormed back, finding the end zone on two-straight possessions to tie it before halftime.

The Golden Flashes started fast, intercepting Radcliff’s second pass

of the night. Four plays later they scored on a 15-yard pass to Jacquise Terry, taking the early lead.

Kent State added to the lead on the first play of the second quarter with an 85-yard pass to Matt Hurdle. It was the Golden Flashes longest pass play since 2003.

The Chippewas fought back with their freshman wide receivers. Davis caught two touchdowns and fresh-

Depth not an issue for women’s basketball

By Kristopher Lodes Staff Reporter

68:01 mark off a corner kick to give the Rockets the only offense they needed, winning 1-0.

UT’s defense held WMU to just one shot on goal in the win.

This turns out to be a favorable outcome for the Chippewas as their season relies on a possible bid to participate in the NCAA Tournament.

The Central Michigan women’s basketball team has two spots to fill in its starting five with the departure of Kaihla Szunko and Shonda Long.

Senior forward Skylar Miller, MidAmerican Conference Freshman of the Year Niki DiGuilio and junior guard Brandie Baker are back.

“Our three returning starters (Miller, DiGuilio and Baker) have all been through the ropes,” said head coach Sue Guevara.

“They’re stronger, lost weight Sue Guevara and have done a great job leading with their work ethic.”

It has been a problem for Guevara to come up with a starting five early in the season, but she said it has been a good problem.

“I say that is a good thing because we have 9-to-10 players that could easily start,” Guevara said. “Part of it depends on consistency, the team we’re going to play and that may determine who gets any of the starting spots.”

MAC Sixth Player of the Year Taylor Johnson is expected to lead a deep bench, continuing to be that sixth person.

“We had role meetings all week and coach (Guevara) sees me as coming in as a sixth player again,” Johnson said. “If she wants me to go out and roll on the ground for a ball, go in and get a foul or get a rebound, then I’ll do it for the team.”

Guevara can look for starters in the incoming freshman class. Three freshmen all enter the program out of Inkster High School.

Guard Crystal Bradford is rated No. 37 in the nation among freshmen according to ESPN, forward Jas’Mine Bracey is rated No. 9 among freshmen in Michigan according to Michigan Prep News and guard Leah Scott is rated No. 19 with Michigan Prep News.

“All three are very different players,” Guevara said.

Bradford is the type of player that can come in and be an instant factor with the offense, Bracey is an intimidating and physical player, while Scott reminds Guevara of Long from last season.

They aren’t the only freshman joining the roster. Petoskey guard Kerby Tamm and Belleville guard Jessica Green are also a part of the mix.

“Kerby (Tamm) is a really good knock-down three point shooter and sees the floor very well,” Guevara said. “Jess (Green) is a really smooth silky type of player and can play any of the guard positions.”

Guevara’s depth doesn’t only consist of freshmen. She has plenty of returning players who have had success with the team.

Sophomore guard Kylie Welch, who found a lot of playing time at the end of last season, handled the ball well and can shoot if needed.

Junior guard Jalisa Olive put up a school record 32 points for a reserve player against North Carolina A & T on Nov. 12, 2010.

The question is which one of those traits will override the other. Leadership goes a long way in helping that youth and talent grow.

In 2011, the leadership is expected to be provided by the teams three captains, senior Skylar Miller, junior Brandie Baker and sophomore Kylie Welch. So far, the three have not disappointed as the Chippewas prepare for the season.

Soccer eliminated in semifinals of MAC tourney; NCAA Tournament bid still possible By ryan Zuke Staff Reporter

Head coach Neil Stafford stressed the importance of capitalizing on scoring opportunities if his team wanted to have success in the MidAmerican Conference Tournament.

On Friday, the Central Michigan women’s soccer team was unable to beat Western Michigan goalkeeper Michelle Watson as the Broncos defeated CMU 1-0 in overtime.

“I think we struggled a little big getting going today,” Stafford said.

“I thought Western Michigan had great energy and they really controlled parts of the game.”

Junior Anina Cicerone scored 4:31 into the second overtime, heading the ball into the goal off a free kick.

“I guess you would like to get beat on another play, but fair credit to Western Michigan,” Stafford said.

This time, the Chippewas inability to score proved costly.

“It’s one that I felt got away from us with all of the pressure and opportunities we had,” Stafford said.

Watson made four saves in her shutout performance, including a key diving save on junior Ashley Mejilla.

CMU junior goalkeeper Stefanie Turner made a season-high eight saves in the loss.

“She was fine,” Stafford said. “She didn’t really have to make a big save or anything, but I thought she played good.”

The Chippewas were outshot by the Broncos 14-13 — the first time it was outshot by a MAC opponent all season.

Both teams received a yellow card foul as emotions were elevated throughout the game.

Sophomore Kaely Schlosser had one for the Chippewas and senior Nikolette Rivera for the Broncos.

On Sunday, Toledo defeated WMU in the MAC Championship game, claiming the title.

Titus Davis has career day on national TV loss at Kent State

By John Manzo Sports Editor

Wide receiver Titus Davis made 10 catches for 192 yards and two touchdowns Friday night.

But the effort wasn’t enough to beat Kent State, losing 2421. Still, Davis felt like his team had a chance to go for the win.

“I wanted to take a shot so

bad,” he said. “I thought we had time to take another shot, but whatever coaches’ decision was, I was behind it 100 percent.”

Head coach Dan Enos had other decisions with nine seconds remaining. Instead of attempting a pass toward the end zone for the win, he called the conservative play, centering the ball, setting up a 28-yard field goal for David Harman.

Harman missed wide left.

The miss overshadowed Davis’ performance.

He was the go-to guy without wide receiver Cody Wilson, who was limited at receiver because of a foot injury.

Davis made three catches on the final drive. Two catches on the drive came on third down, one on a third and 14 from its own 33.

“Titus did a heck of a job

today,” said quarterback Ryan Radcliff. “He really stepped up big when we needed him.

He had a couple big plays that got us back in it a couple of times.”

The freshman clearly wasn’t fazed in the national spotlight.

Davis might have had the best game of his collegiate career, a game televised on ESPN 2.

“He’s been growing a lot, just like in the mental part of

the game and you see he’s got the physical part, so definitely give him all of the props in the world,” Radcliff said.

Davis scored his first touchdown of the game right before the half. He caught a 36-yard touchdown, tying the game at 14.

Freddy Cortez added a 34yard field goal, extending the Golden Flashes lead to 10 with 7:27 remaining.

Radcliff and Davis responded, hooking up on a 52-yard touchdown pass, cutting the lead to three, shedding 1:28 off the clock.

Davis caught the pass in between defenders and broke it down the left sideline for his second touchdown of the day.

“He’s a good player, a very good player,” Enos said. sports@cm-life.com

Enos plays for overtime; plan backfires with loss Kent State coach would have made same call

By Matt Thompson Assistant Sports Editor

KENT, Ohio ­— Down three points with nine seconds left and 12 yards from the end zone.

Head coach Dan Enos had an important choice to make.

The Central Michigan football coach could have: A.) Centered the ball to set up the field goal to attempt to put the game in overtime.

B.) Throw a pass in the end zone, trying to win with a touchdown and then call the timeout and kick the next play from a hash for overtime.

Enos went with A. The kicker missed a 28-yard and CMU lost 24-21 Friday night against Kent State.

“We were trying to get to overtime at that point,” Enos said.

Senior line backer Armond Staten tackles Kent State tight end Casey Pierce during the game Friday night at Dix Stadium at Kent State.

Receiver Titus Davis, who had a career day, thought the Chippewas should have tried to win.

“I wanted to take a shot so bad,” Davis said. “I thought we had time to take another shot but whatever coaches’ decision I was behind it 100 percent.”

Quarterback Ryan Radcliff was also behind the deci-

sion. Although it seemed he thought the decision was made because Enos didn’t think CMU could score in that situation.

“If we thought we could’ve won at the end, take another shot, we would’ve done that,” Radcliff said. “I was 100 percent behind whatever coach wanted to do.”

F

ire up Chips, smh (shaking my head).

Just quit.

An angry emoticon.

Wow. Those were the text messages I received moments after Central Michigan kicker David Harman missed his 28-yard tying field goal attempt in the Chippewas 24-21 loss Friday Night at Dix Stadium in Kent, Ohio.

Normally, I don’t receive text messages after a CMU loss. Mainly because my friends from the student body don’t care about this program anymore (explaining the 9,572 fan decrease from 2009-to-2011’s homecoming game).

But Friday night was special. The game was broadcasted nationally on ESPN2.

Only 10,132 fans saw it live at Kent State, but a lot more saw head coach Dan Enos and the Chippewas center the ball — bypassing a throw to the end zone with nine seconds remaining — then botching the field goal, embarrassing the program more than it already has been this season.

The Chippewas are the worst Division I football program in the state. Luckily, they don’t play U of M until 2013. CMU lost to the other three Division I teams in the state.

I’m not a head football coach and I might be wrong (Kent State head coach Darrell Hazell agreed on Enos’ decision), but why not go for it?

Nine seconds to go and only pride and draft stock

left to play for (certainly not a Mid-American Conference championship).

Michigan State attempted a play inside Minnesota’s 10 with under 10 seconds remaining. Result: touchdown.

Michigan attempted four plays within 16 seconds inside the 10 against Iowa at the end of the game, but failed to score.

CMU’s situation was different, but proves a play can be completed in nine seconds from the red zone.

GO FOR IT! What do you have to lose Chippewas?

What’s the difference between six losses and seven?

A six-win MAC team with zero qualities wins isn’t getting a bowl game anyways.

Receiver Titus Davis

wanted to go for it.

Quarterback Ryan Radcliff said: “If we thought we could’ve won at the end, taken another shot, we would’ve done that.”

So Enos didn’t think his team could complete a 12yard pass, with a timeout remaining in case the play broke down.

Hilarious.

Since the football tradition has been removed from Mount Pleasant because of limited success and lack of Saturday afternoon football games, there is one positive.

Money.

If Akron can play on ESPN, expect CMU to get its one nationally broadcasted game a year.

Women’s basketball team face tough schedule ahead

By Kristopher Lodes Staff Reporter

It is a tough road ahead for the Central Michigan women’s basketball team this season.

“We’re in a tough conference,” said head coach Sue Guevara. “The West (division) is pretty tough and the East (division), thank goodness we only play them once.”

The Chippewas open up their season at home against Big Ten opponent Northwestern. A week later, they hit the road to play Robert Morris and Big East opponent Pittsburgh, who took them out last year at McGuirk Arena, 94-78.

“Last year we had a really good chance against Northwestern and we got to get Pittsburgh back,” said senior forward Skylar Miller. “Last year they (Pitt) came into our place and got us pretty good.”

After Pitt, the team travels to Anchorage, Alaska to take part in the Great Alaskan Shootout where they will see South Florida, another Big East opponent. A win could possibly set up a game No. 9 Miami in the next round.

Wichita State comes after

the tournament, a team that went to the Women’s National Invitational Tournament.

CMU then returns home to play Bradley, and then what might be its toughest nonconference opponent of the non-conference season against No. 21 Purdue.

“We just have to treat it like another game,” Miller said.

“We don’t have anything to lose and hopefully we can get a win and send them back.”

After Purdue, the Chippewas hit the road again for a rematch with Southeastern Conference opponent, Ole Miss, who beat them last year at McGuirk Arena, 82-66.

CMU ends its non-conference season with two road tournaments at Wright State in Dayton, Ohio, and Tulane University in New Orleans, LA. “The Wright State tournament is an exempted tournament where we play three games and it only counts as one,” Guevara said. “It is a really good tournament right before Christmas.”

At Wright State the Chippewas play Southeast Missouri State, Longwood and Wright State, another WNIT oppo-

nent. In Tulane, CMU starts off with a Hampton team that took Kentucky into overtime in the NCAA tournament last season.

“Hampton, that is a pretty good basketball team right there,” Guevara said. “They’re big, athletic and they get up and down the court.”

The Chippewas finish the non-conference season against either the Green Wave or the College of Charleston.

“The tough schedule will get the younger players acclimated to big games,” Miller said. “I really think they can handle it.”

With such a tough schedule, CMU should be prepared to face the top teams of the MAC and compete for the conference championship.

The Mid American Conference isn’t a pushover conference and the Chippewas have been picked to finish runnerup in the West behind defending WNIT champions Toledo.

CMU also faces defending MAC champions Bowling Green one time at McGuirk Arena. sports@cm-life.com

alling all Chippewa fans.

Central Michigan women’s basketball coach Sue Guevara wants you to come out and support her team as it plays one of the toughest home schedules in recent history.

The Chippewas kick off their season in McGuirk Arena at noon on Friday against Big Ten opponent Northwestern, who beat them 92-84 last season.

That isn’t the only Big Ten opponent that will make the trip to Mount Pleasant this season. CMU will welcome No. 21 Purdue on Dec. 11 after hosting Bradley on Dec. 3, who is known to be a quality basketball school.

The Chippewas want a strong supporting crowd to

Trio | continued from 1b

“The three captains have done a really nice job,” said head coach Sue Guevara.

“Whether it’s when they are out on the floor leading by example or talking to the players and making sure people understand what they are doing.”

This season the Chippewas must replace Kaihla Szunko and Shonda Long, their captains and top two leading scorers from a year ago. According to Guevara, it will take a variety of players to do this, including the team’s three captains.

“There isn’t one player that is going to be able to do a double-double like Szunko,” she said. “Same thing with Long and her ability score, but we have a lot of capable players on this team.”

Baker and Miller are both returning starters with Baker being CMU’s top returning scorer. She was third on the team, averaging 13 points a game while leading the team with 156 assists.

Miller started every game a year ago and averaged 6.5 points per game.

Welch appeared in 21 games in her freshman season, averaging 11 minutes a game. She has a bigger role this season as a sophomore and has been playing a lot of point guard in practice.

“Kylie Welch has done a really nice job of running this basketball team,” Guevara said. “When she’s on the floor, she understands the game.

Combine her with Baker and I have two point guards on the floor that understand and know what needs to be done.”

The youth requires more teaching from both Guevara and the team’s captains.

“It’s our job to constantly talk to our team, “Welch said.

help this young, but talented team over the hump against some stiff non-conference competition.

But the strong competition doesn’t end with the nonconference season. After being on the road for a full month, CMU welcomes Mid-American Conference play with rival Western Michigan on Jan. 11.

Guevara wants to have the fans in the stands and is willing to whatever it takes to get a strong crowd in McGurik Arena.

One big way to get fans to come is to win, which the team has done, going 19-11 last season with big wins against Ole Miss and Wichita State. Also, taking Iowa and Northwestern to the wire.

CMU is fun to watch and averaged 80.8 points a game last season while scoring in the triple digits three times and 90-plus points eight times.

It is an exciting team and so were the games last season,

with six games decided by six points or less, including that last-second win against EMU at home.

The Chippewas appeared in their first postseason tournament (WNIT) since the 1983-84 season when they got into the NCAA Tournament.

The team lost its top two scorers, Kaihla Szunko and Shonda Long, but return three starters, senior forward Skylar Miller, guard and MAC Freshman of the Year Niki DiGuilio and junior guard Brandie Baker.

It also returns sixth Player of the Year sophomore forward Taylor Johnson.The Chippewas also added the No. 43 recruiting class in the nation with Inkster High School freshmen guards Crystal Bradford, Leah Scott, forward Jas’Mine Bracey, Petoskey guard Kerby Tamm and Belleville guard Jessica Green.

This team will be fun to watch and I would highly recommend going to watch this team as it look for its first MAC title since 1984.

“We have a lot of new players this year. We need to make sure they know what they’re doing on offense and defense.”

The captains accept the responsibility of helping the younger players on and off of the court.

“On the court we need to tell them over and over what’s going on, things like what defense we’re in and where they need to be on offense,” Baker said. “But just as importantly off the court, we need to make

sure they’re going to class, going to study table and keeping their grades up.”

The challenges facing the Chippewas are apparent, however.

“I think it’s going pretty good so far,” Welch said. “The new players that we have want to learn and want to get better.

They have been asking a lot of questions. I don’t think chemistry will be an issue with this team.”

Freshmen should make impact for basketball team this season

By Brandon Champion Staff Reporter

A major part of the Central Michigan women’s basketball team this season will be its youth.

CMU has the 43rd ranked recruiting class in the country, the highest rated class its ever had.

The Chippewas are led by guard Crystal Bradford, who was rated the 37th best prospect in the nation.

The 6-foot guard from Detroit had offers from Louisville, Marquette and Kansas, but chose CMU. “I could have gone a lot of places,” Bradford said. “Coach Guevara and her assistants had been recruiting me for a long time and when I came up for a visit, I really liked the campus, the team.”

Despite the hype, Bradford knows expectations don’t guarantee results and that the college game is a big step up from high school.

“College basketball is a lot harder,” Bradford said. “There’s

man Courtney Williams caught another.

Williams went up and over the defending corner to catch a Ryan Radcliff pass in the back of the end zone. It was his fourth touchdown reception of the year.

Davis had a career day with 10 receptions for 192 yards

a lot more plays, it takes more discipline and the coaches will sit you down if you don’t listen.”

Two of Bradford’s high school teammates chose CMU. Forward Jas’Mine Bracey was rated the No. 9 player in Michigan and guard Leah Scott was rated the No. 19 prospect. The trio won a state championship while playing at Inkster High School last season and looks to continue that success this season.

“We have great chemistry,” Bradford said. “We have been playing together for a very long time and coming here is just another step and another level, we’re working on getting better and improving.”

The three newcomers are getting most of the attention, but Guevara wants people to focus on the class as a whole.

“We have to look at our entire class, not just the three from Inkster,” she said. “I don’t have any higher expectations for someone because there ranked higher.”

Jessica Green from Belleville and Kerby Tamm from Peto-

skey are the two who few are talking about, but are players Guevara is very excited about.

“Kerby thinks the game very well and is a true playmaker,” she said. “Green is silky smooth and a quick-handed thief on defense. She sees the floor very well and her defense directly leads to a lot of buckets.”

The freshman class should have an impact in 2011 and according to Guevara, their addition makes CMU deeper and more athletic than any team she has ever had.

“We have a lot of depth, but its inexperienced depth,” Guevara said. “With the talent we have on this team my goal is to play them all.”

The freshman class is talented, but even talent makes mistakes.

“It great for a program, but you can’t go by the rankings.”

Guevara said. “Our freshmen have a lot of talent, but they make a lot of aggressive mistakes.”

MAC. A WMU win, potentially meant the Rockets would receive an at-large bid. Now, the Broncos are most likely eliminated from receiving a bid because both Toledo and CMU have posted better overall records.

Boasting a 15-3-3 record with quality non-conference

wins against Wisconsin, Louisville and Pittsburgh, the Chippewas seek to become the only MAC team in conference history to receive a possible at-large bid.

The selections will be announced Monday afternoon.

and the two touchdowns. He was starting in place of the injured Cody Wilson, who was limited at wide receiver because of a foot injury.

“I knew I had to step up and have a big day,” Davis said.

It was the third time this season that the Chippewas had a chance to tie or win on the last play and lost.

“Right now, we don’t pick ourselves up. We lick our wounds,” Radcliff said.

Wilson snapped his con-

secutive games with a reception streak at 28 games.

He wasn’t able to check in at receiver, but he still was the holder for kicks.

The Chippewas host the Ohio Bobcats at 7:30 p.m.

Thursday at Kelly/Shorts Stadium.

“Very good win for this football team,” said Kent State coach Darrell Hazell.

“I’m proud of these guys.”

Field hockey ‘bears’ fifth-consecutive loss in semifinals for field hockey

By Jeff papworth Staff Reporter

BethanY waLter/STAff PhoTogrAPhEr

Freshman guard Austin McBroom runs the ball down the court away from Northern Michigan University freshman forward Haki Stampley Saturday night at McGuirk Arena. CMU won 90-82 against NMU.

Men’s basketball faces adversity in exhibition finale at home

It was the same tune for the Central Michigan field hockey team that lost in the semifinals for the fifthstraight year Friday.

The Chippewas were optimistic with two close losses to Kent State coming in overtime.

But the Golden Flashes let their fans’ hearts rest easy with a lopsided 4-1 victory.

“The difference in the game was penalty corner execution,” said CMU coach Cristy Freese. “They lift the ball to the far post, just out of (Anastasia Netto’s) reach.”

Julianna Makrinos snatched the first lead in the fifth minute for CMU. “We were actually really excited because we scored the first goal and we knew that we started the game off strong,” Makrinos said.

“It was pretty disappointing that we did not get a goal soon after.”

Kent State followed by

tallying four unanswered goals, including three in a five-minute span in the second half.

Missouri State and the Chippewas were going in opposite directions entering Thursday’s first round matchup.

CMU had dropped its previous three games while the Bears won their last four.

CMU junior Erin Dye began and ended the second half with goals.

Both were a result of a play that the Chippewas worked on in their last two practices.

“Cayleigh (Immelman) passes the ball a little lower into the circle and Erin onetimes it in and it worked to perfection both times,” Freese said.

Dye’s last goal widened the margin to two after Immelman and Bears forward Casey Bayliss traded scores, giving the Chippewas a 2-1 lead.

“It was a little scary there, so we knew we needed to get insurance goals,” Dye

said. “We definitely took control of the ball, tried to get them on our end and get some more opportunities that we could finish on.”

RECAPPING THE SEASON Chippewas floor leader Paulina Lee ended her senior season with 10 assists.

No CMU player had surpassed nine in the previous two seasons.

“Last year after the season, one area that we wanted Paulina to improve in was her vision to see the open player and make the pass,” Freese said. “I think she’s improved on both of them. You got to improve on the skill to make the pass and the vision to see it” Immelman won MAC Freshman of the Year and All-MAC first team as a result of the 33 points she contributed this season.

Simone Lazar was also a MAC first-team member.

Lee, Dye and Netto were second team All-MAC.
