Student arraigned on criminal sexual assault charge

By Sydney Smith News Editor

Pradeep Gujjula, a 24-year-old graduate student, was arraigned Friday on one count of fourth-degree criminal sexual assault.

Central Michigan University Police Department officers said Gujjula inappropriately touched the chest of a female staff member after asking to take a selfie photograph with her. The incident

took place April 15 in an academic building.

CMU’s administration has not yet commented on this incident.

According to the Sexual Misconduct Policy, there Pradeep Gujjula are interim measures the university can take prior to a student’s conduct hearing if found in viola-

tion of the Code of Conduct. The hearing must happen within 60 days of being reported.

These interim measures can include one or more of the following: No contact orders, residential reassignments or removal, changes to employment assignments, changes to academic assignments, counseling, temporary suspension or temporary delay of graduation or other academic progress.

No plea was given during his

arraignment. A probable cause hearing is scheduled for 8:15 a.m.

April 30 in the Isabella County Courthouse.

If convicted, Gujjula could face up to two years in prison, a $500 fine or both.

Gujjula was arrested at his offcampus residence and bonded out of jail. The university has restricted him to only enter academic buildings where he is taking courses. w Assault | 2A

Cancer survivors find hope at Relay for Life

By Brianne Twiddy Staff Reporter

Growing up, most kids need their parents to remind them to brush their teeth or to place bandages on their skinned knees.

Lacey Johnson was different.

When she was 11, she was helping her mother with those seeminglysimple tasks.

The Southgate senior became her mother’s caregiver after she was diagnosed with ovarian cancer. That year, she went from being a regular elementary school student to constantly missing school to take care of her mother.

In 2004, when Johnson was 11, her mother died. The loss inspired Johnson to start participating in Relay for Life, and years later, she’s the president of Colleges Against Cancer, which organizes the event.

CORRECTION In the April 24 edition of Central Michigan Life, a health code violation for Riverwood Recreation was improperly labelled.

Inspectors found one priority foundation and one core violation in January 2015, which have since been fixed.

CM Life regrets this error.

Those touched by cancer gained the feeling of solidarity Saturday at Relay for Life, organized by Colleges Against Cancer.

The event began at 11 a.m. with an opening ceremony featuring President George Ross and concluded Sunday morning.

More than $67,000 of donated money has been counted by the time of publication. The money is still being counted as the 2015 relay season collects online until September.

Raising money for Relay for Life is a year-long process. While the full event day is important for fundraising,

students have been holding events to raise money since last year’s relay.

“It’s important for events like this to be held on college campuses because it really brings actual issues to life,” said Troy senior Liliana Cujar. “To donate the time and energy to work towards something like this brings something tangible and important to college campuses and makes us think.”

Ann Arbor senior Tess Jackson said she felt inspired seeing so many people care enough to donate time and effort to the event. People who stopped in for a short amount of time helped the cause because small amounts of money contribute toward

It helps you know you’re not alone in the journey.”

Taking care of her mother forced her to grow up fast.

Johnson said anyone who knows her would describe her to be “like a mom.”

She said she isn’t thankful for cancer, but it has helped her become the person she is today.

“I wouldn’t be leading an event like this if cancer didn’t take away my mom,” she said. “As hard as it’s been and as many nights as I’ve cried about it, it’s been a journey and it’s been a good one. I know it’s what was supposed to happen in my life.”

Central Michigan University alumna and South Bend, Ind. resident Karen Hinckley lost her mother eight years ago to colon cancer. Last year, she was diagnosed with the disease herself and swore that it wasn’t going to get her too.

Hinckley held onto that promise; she is now a year survivor of colon cancer.

She said she wakes up every morning thankful to be alive and plans on being around for the next 50 years. She’s doing everything she can to remain healthy and not to let the cancer come back.

This was Hinckley’s second year attending Relay for Life. Her daughter, senior Corinne Ondraka, brought her to the event. “(The event) means love.

A lot of love,” Hinckley said.

“It’s a lot of caring and a lot of people who really want to stamp this nasty disease out.”

Seeing the large groups of people walking around and stopping at booths filled her with amazement.

The amount of people who attended the event was a visual reminder that she

“As hard as it’s been and as many nights as I’ve cried about it, it’s been a journey and it’s been a good one. I know it’s what was supposed to happen in my life.”

Lacey Johnson, Southgate senior wasn’t alone, she said.

Hinckley didn’t expect to be as emotional as she was during the survivor walk, the first lap of the relay. She felt overwhelmed by the feeling of support and love from everyone who participated.

“It’s devastating, but it can also give you a completely different outlook on life,” Hinckley said. “It gives you the chance, if you can survive it, to make a difference.”

Riverview senior Justin Southerland was diagnosed with cancer on June 14, 2012.

After six cycles of chemotherapy and 20 cycles of radiation, he was deemed cancer-free Feb. 14, 2013.

The two-year survivor admits that “while it’s cliche”, having survived cancer has made him a stronger person.

“You complain a bit less,” Southerland said. “This

event is not only is it about money, but it’s a celebration for life in general. It brings survivors closer together.”

He met a woman a few years ago at a Relay for Life at Michigan State University who had the same cancer as him. She relapsed shortly after meeting, but went through treatment and survived. Southerland said he saw her, full of energy, at this year’s event.

“That was pretty special.

With cancer, it doesn’t matter who you are. You know someone who has had cancer. You know someone who knows someone who has had cancer,” he said. “If you haven’t had it yourself, then a family member has or a friend has or a friend’s family member has. It reaches to everyone. There’s no one who is not affected by cancer.”

YOU’VE GOT SPRING FEVER. We’ve got the cure.

“It brings people together and gives people hope for the future and that we will be the generation that sees the end of cancer. It’s a time to remember, but it’s also a time to fight back.”

The event was reduced to 15 hours instead of the previous 24 hours in hopes of increasing attendance at the closing ceremony.

CMU was one of five colleges that still held Relay for Life for 24 hours.

Because most colleges have cut down the number of hours the event runs, the university has one of the longest participation times.

“We actually have a lot of student survivors on campus and a lot of people don’t realize that. We’re showing people that this isn’t just something that affects either younger kids or older people, but also people our age,” said Grand Rapids senior Becca Hillyard. “It also gives us a sense of solidarity that it’s almost impossible to find someone on campus that hasn’t been affected by cancer in some way.”

was allowed to attend classes while waiting for his arraignment, they organized the protest.

Hannah Mollett, president of SAGE and Ortonville senior, said allowing the Gujjula to attend class on campus puts not only the victim, but all women at risk.

“The university administration has shown repeatedly that they do not care enough about the safety of the campus community, both students and staff,” she said. “We’re hoping to show the administration that allowing a known perpetrator of sexual assault to be on campus is not ‘taking care’ of each other and not something to be proud of.”

About 80 booths were set up at the event. Each booth was a fundraising team that was either an RSO or a group of participating friends. The booths offered various activities or foods ranging from back massages to deep fried Oreos.

The 15 hours had 21 events including: a photo scavenger hunt, cardio kickboxing, line dances, lip sync battles and a luminaria bag event.

“I think everyone gets something different out of Relay for Life. Everyone has a different favorite part,” said president and co-chair of Relay for Life and Southgate senior Lacey Johnson. “Everyone has been affected by cancer in some way and I get that out of this. I’m not alone, no matter where my journey is at that point.”

Qatu named EMU dean of College of Technology

THE

Central Michigan University’s chair of the School of Engineering and Technology Mohamad Mohamad Qatu was Qatu recently named dean of the College of Technology at Eastern Michigan University.

Qatu was chosen by EMU after a months-long national search which brought four finalists to their campus for interviews and public forums.

He will officially begin July 1 and will be paid an annual salary of $172,000.

Before coming to CMU, Qatu served as a professor of mechanical engineering at Michigan State University from 2008 to 2011.

CATWALK Students display apparel projects created this semester at Threads Kate Carlson Staff Reporter

Watching models rock their garments was the most satisfying part of the Threads Fashion Show for co-producer Zach Stoner.

Models strutted down the 72-foot long runway wearing clothes designed by Central Michigan University students at the seventh annual fashion show which packed McGuirk Arena on Saturday night.

The Portage sophomore co-produced the fashion show with Virginia graduate student Jennise Thurston, and took home best in show for his L.A. club-inspired menswear collection.

It was his first time producing and second time designing the show. This year, Stoner said he created all of his collection designs during spring break—seven designs in six days.

Submissions to the runway show were judged beforehand to ensure the best work was being displayed. Awards for best collections, best mounted exhibition, avant garde, people’s choice award, best model and two best in show awards were announced as the models walked the runway.

Before the runway event there was also a mounted exhibition for the first time at Threads.

Items in the hallway of the Events Center displayed work by apparel and design students that could not be part of the runway show. Table displays and computer aided design garments were part of the exhibition.

“We’re kind of the visionaries (of the show),” Thurston said. “We changed a lot of things compared to the past years.”

Thurston and first-time faculty adviser for the event, Michael Mamp, said they wanted a professional feel that was closer to industry-standard fashion shows.

Students executed every aspect of the show.

From the lighting, live music, models, make up and planning leading up to the event, students with or without designs in the show had a hand in the production. The fashion show is the second largest event on campus and cost about $18,000 to put on.

Funding for the show came from fundraising and ticket sales, plus a portion of the College of Education and Human Services.

“We are the top fashion school in the Midwest and one of the best in the country,” Mamp said.

“We continue to grow in terms of enrollment and I think these events mimic industry standard.”

Mamp said the juried judging process gave students feedback from faculty and industry professionals like guest judge Renaldo Barnette, who is a professor at the Fashion Institute of Technology in New York City. Barnette personally inspected each piece and chose the two best in show awards.

Goodrich senior Nikki Allen won an award for best collection as well as best in show for her garden-party themed garments.

“It’s amazing for my work to be recognized by someone like Renaldo,” Allen said. “I am also grateful to have the support from my family and friends that came tonight.”

and one in the runway show that won the best avant garde award. All of her dresses were sewn out of paper she hand made.

“There was no theme this year. It was completely up to you, whatever you wanted to submit,” Lancina said.

Lancina helped with the production of the show by lending a hand backstage, and also modeled a pair of pants on the runway that she designed.

She said she was happy to display a semester’s worth of work. It took a month to make the paper for the dresses, and that was before she started sewing them, she said.

Southfield sophomore Sala White designed a protest collection in response to recent cases of police brutality against minorities. The rich col-

ors represented controversial issues in the justice system, and all of the garments had a background, she said. Her collection was featured in the mounted exhibition.

“They put me out here because of the message I was trying to portray. This is a protest piece,” White said. “On the red dress there are 28 rhinestones on the front and back. Every 28 hours a black person is killed by vigilantes or law enforcement based on 2014 data.”

There were four pieces to White’s collection, each representing either the justice system or those not being served by it. Some of the models, as well as White, wore bracelets connected by chains she fashioned into looking like handcuffs using pliers.

Vagina Monologues raises funds to end sexual violence

By Kate Carlson Staff Reporter

If your vagina could talk, what would it say?

This was a question the performers of the Vagina Monologues addressed in a night of celebrating women, and shedding light on heavier topics like rape and sexual assault.

“It is important to have this at Central Michigan University to shed light and awareness that rape, sexual assault and discrimination against vaginas and females still happens,” said Plymouth senior Kerry MacDonald, who performed in some of the monologues and helped direct and produce the show.

Vagina Monologues was created by Eve Ensler in 1996. Ensler interviewed hundreds of women from all walks of life about their vaginas, which was turned into the series of monologues performed around the country. All funds raised this year were donated to Sexual Aggression

Peer Advocates, CMU’s 24-hour crisis hotline for victims of sexual violence.

A portion of the money was donated to One Billion Rising, a worldwide campaign to end sexual violence.

In recent years, Students Advocating Gender Equality have hosted the event. When SAGE didn’t host the event this year, a group of women, with some SAGE members, took the initiative to perform the Vagina Monologues themselves.

“It was basically a coalition of females and we were like ‘Hey, we want to talk about our vaginas,’” MacDonald said.

Some of the monologues were based on one woman’s story while others were based on multiple stories with the same theme. Subjects of the monologues ranged from periods and pubic hair to reclaiming the word ‘cunt.’ Performances were filled with no-filter moments and telling stories about real women and their vaginas.

While most of the monologues drew laughs from the audience, some completely changed the mood. This

was the cast’s opportunity to yell “happy fact.” During this moment, a cast member came out from the crowd to deliver a more uplifting fact about vaginas.

“There are some light hearted pieces but then there are some heavy-hitting things that need to be touched on as well, even though it is

a harder topic to discuss, it is absolutely necessary and critical to do so,” MacDonald said.

Frasier freshman Mackenzie Eddy, who attended the show on Saturday, said she liked the range of topics the monologues covered.

“I liked that it went through topics no one really talks about,” she said.

Voices for Planned Parenthood at Central Michigan University will host the annual sexual health conference, “Sextival,” at 3 p.m. today.

The event will be held in the Bovee University Center Rotunda.

Students will have the opportunity to learn about sexual health, make crafts, obtain free condoms and enter to win prizes, which include Planned Parenthood T-shirts and various sex toys.

The purpose of the event is to help make students comfortable talking and asking about safe sex. Facilitators attempt to make them more comfortable by presenting educational opportunities with different games and activities.

Students can RSVP for the event and view prizes on Sextival’s even page on Facebook.

EDITORIAL | Students, community members uncomfortable with sexual misconduct policy

Kick him out Brynn McDonnell Columnist

G

Sexual misconduct policies reflect complacency with sexual assault

raduate student Pradeep Gujjula

was arraigned Friday after being arrested for one count of fourth-degree criminal sexual assault of a Central Michigan University staff member.

CMU Police Department officers determined Gujjula inappropriately touched the woman’s chest April 15 after asking to take a selfie photograph with her. He may have committed similar acts before. Gujjula has been allowed to remain on campus until his probable cause hearing April 30, restricted to academic buildings he has classes in.

Under the university’s ​sexual misconduct policy, CMU cannot completely remove students from campus who have not been found guilty of violating the student code of conduct.

We understand CMU is operat-

ing under the restrictions of the policy — which is one of the most progressive in the state. This policy is a significant improvement from previous policies.

However, a person charged with sexual assault should not remain on a college campus.

We do not support allowing individuals accused of committing sexual assault crimes to remain among our students during the lengthy sexual misconduct investigation process.

If a student is found guilty of sexual assault in a court of law, they are a proven threat to student safety. That student has no

place at a public university, regardless of whether they are found guilty of violating the student code of conduct.

While Gujjula has not been found guilty, he is still an unwelcome presence, especially during the time it will take for the Office of Student Conduct to charge him.

The sexual misconduct policy allows the university to temporarily suspend a student accused of sexual misconduct during the investigation process. CMU deemed it unnecessary to do so in this case. The fact that individuals who commit sexual assault are allowed to remain so present within a college community speaks more to the overall mentality surrounding sexual assault.

As a society we are too complacent with incidents of assault or misconduct happening within our communities.

The student body has raised its voice and made it clear that they do not approve the way sexual misconduct cases are handled, both at the university and at large.

Students Advocating Gender Equality has scheduled a protest for the morning of April 30 in reaction to the university’s decision to allow Gujjula to remain on campus.

We support them in their goal to demonstrate that allowing perpetrators of sexual assault, especially in multiple cases, to remain on a college campus does not create a safe or welcome environment for students.

Students and community members have spoken out in protest against Gujjula’s presence on campus during the investigation. Shortly after coverage of the incident was posted to social media, several readers commented on the story, expressing concern over Gujjula’s continued use of academic buildings.

It’s time for current federal policies on sexual assault to change. It’s time for those in power to listen.

I wanted my last column before I graduated from Central Michigan University to be something uplifting with reverence to some Walt Whitman quote.

However, due to recent acts by the university, that’s not going to happen.

On Thursday, April 23, Central Michigan Life reported that a 24-year-old student sexually assaulted a staff member on April 15.

This student is out of jail on bond. CMU has allowed the student to continue classes with the understanding that this person must only enter certain academic buildings to finish courses.

The police believe he may have committed other sexual assaults, which would make this person a serial offender walking free on campus at this time. According to the recentlyunveiled and updated sexual misconduct policy, the university may take interim measures prior to a student having a hearing with the university.

The policy gives a number of options for how to deal with alleged offenders until the hearing date. These include “one or more of the following:” 1. No contact orders 2. Residential reassignments or removal 3. Changes to employment assignments 4. Changes to academic assignments 5. Counseling 6. Temporary suspension, or 7. Temporary delay of graduation or other academic progress.

The university had a chance to do the right thing. Those involved in the decision to continue to allow him on campus had the chance of temporarily suspending or delaying a sex offender from attending classes. Instead, it was concluded that a sex offender, with potentially multiple offenses, could be allowed to complete the semester.

The fact that the survivor of this event was a CMU staff member makes this decision even more concerning. I wouldn’t be surprised if this decision was made in the case of a student victim, but I am shocked that the university views its staff in such poor light with no level of humanity or reason. I don’t care if the victim was a janitor or if they were the dean of the College of Medicine. This response is unacceptable.

On top of this, the allegations the offender has serial offenses under his belt and has since attacked again shows that he has a history of violence. Allowing him to be on campus to complete his classes tells me that the university doesn’t “take care” as it markets itself. There are few moments in which the ability to do the right thing falls perfectly within the grips of those who have the power to do so. When this case was placed in the hands of the university, it was clearly was dropped and walked on.

What kind of stamp does this leave on the university? One that reads, “If you commit an act of violence, we’ve got your back.”

Crown Classic 5K raises more than $18,000 before opening day

By Emily DeRuiter Staff Reporter

Zeta Tau Alpha members cheered and hugged as more than 150 runners crossed the finish line drawn in pink and blue chalk.

The 20th annual Crown Classic 5K raised more than $18,000 for Breast Cancer Education and Awareness before race day, money was also raised during the event on Sunday.

“We usually raise about $10,000 on race day as well,” said Janelle McLaughlin, fraternity president and Montcalm junior.

The Zeta Tau Alpha fraternity is the highest fundraising fraternity and RSO on campus, she said. McLaughlin said the Annual Crown Classic 5K is their highest grossing event of the year.

“A lot of (fraternities) get into this,” McLaughlin said.

“We have an overall fraternity winner.”

Trophies with pink breast cancer flags were given to the sorority and fraternity represented by the most participants, as well as the fastest male and female runners.

Holland Sophomore Eve Parker came to run with a friend and said they found out about the 5K from another friend that is a ZTA member.

“Last year we did this event and we had a lot of fun run-

“Each girl will try to raise an individual goal and then we work as hard as we can to help each member reach it so we can reach it as a chapter.”

Elizabeth LaLonde, Rochester junior ning it,” Parker said. “It goes to a good cause; I have an aunt who had breast cancer.”

A silent auction was held with 26 gift baskets worth about $2,000 at the Rose Center. Baskets were donated by ZTA members, their families, CMU staff and faculty and local businesses.

Rochester junior and ZTA Philanthropy Chair Elizabeth LaLonde said making baskets was a lot of fun.

There was a moment of silence after the race for those who have passed away breast cancer. This year the Recreation, Events and Conferences Office did not allow the fraternity to release balloons into the sky following the moment of silence.

Zeta Tau Alpha’s partners in philanthropy are the NFL, American Cancer Society and Bright Pink, an educational group for breast cancer.

LaLonde said the fraternity’s goal this year is to raise $25,000.

“Each girl will try to raise an individual goal and then we work as hard as we can to help each member reach it so we can reach it as a chapter,” she said.

End of embargo could bring students to Cuba European countries

most popular study abroad locations

By Grant Lefaive Staff Reporter

Study Abroad opportunities in Cuba are now being scheduled for the spring 2016 semester.

Last week, Central Michigan University faculty and staff travelled to Cuba to scout course and program options for students.

Cuba, which has been an unavailable location due to the U.S. blockade since 1960, could offer cultural experiences and academic programs that have been unexplored by a generation of American students. A national discussion about removing the embargo prompted CMU faculty and staff to travel to several locations to seek out enriching environments.

In January, travel restrictions were slightly loosened; however, much of the process of obtaining a visa and chartering a flight is kept out of the hands of those wishing to make the trip, said Director of Academic Advising Dianne De Salvo. Even then, travel for tourism and vacationing is still restricted.

CMU’s visit was arranged through Academic Programs International, an organization devoted to offering Study Abroad opportunities to students worldwide.

Talks to make the trip to Cuba began in the fall. De Salvo said CMU was among the first to establish connections

with Cuban higher education.

Among institutions scouted were The University of Havana, The Instituto Superior De Arte, Centro de Estudios Martianos or Center of Studies of Jose Marti and the Institute of Linguistics and Literature. ISA and Center of Studies of Jose Mari will offer courses for students while The Institute for Linguistics and Literature will be available for faculty research.

Student program opportunities include advanced-level foreign language instruction, including translation courses, history, cultural education, U.S. and Caribbean relations and

advanced writing.

Cuba would offer a unique look into Hispanic culture, said foreign language faculty Krzyztof Kulawik.

“Cuba is equally as important to Latin American culture, literature and history as some other more known countries as Mexico or Argentina,” he said. “However, it has been relegated to the shadows because of the political situation. This is a good opportunity to discover how that political relationship has evolved and to see it from a different perspective.”

Ernest Hemingway lived in San Francisco de Paula, Cuba while writing “The Old Man

and The Sea” and “For Whom The Bell Tolls.” His home, Finca Vigia, just ten minutes outside of Havana, would be one of many cultural sites that students would have access to if they made the trip.

“Hemingway was influenced by his time in Cuba,” Sparling said. “It’s not a uni-directional relationship.

It’s really interesting to think internationally about these intellectual and political conversations people were having and continue to have.”

Students are meeting with advisors to discuss studying in Cuba in the spring, De Salvo said.

Deceased senator leaves lasting legacy at CMU

Griffin was honored at the last panel of the semester by various members of the CMU community. Dean of The College of Humanities and Social and Behavioral Science Pam Gates read a statement from “the president and the community.”

“He was a champion of integrity and the political process, always honoring his word and his commitments in working with elected officials and

constituents across the political spectrum,” Gates said. “Griffin made his mark during a difficult time in American history.”

He was the Republican minority whip from 1969-77.

Hill continued to work for Griffin until Griffin opted not to run for re-election in 1978. Hill then began working for Michigan representative Philip Ruppe. When Griffin changed his mind and it became clear that Ruppe and Griffin could both be in contention, Hill chose to go to Harvard instead of competing against his boss and mentor.

Robert Griffin, a distinguished former senator and Central Michigan University class of 1947 alumnus, leaves behind a legacy of political advocacy and a foundation of educating students on political issues.

Griffin, 91, died April 17 at his home in Traverse City. He was one of the most powerful political figures of the 1970s, said political science faculty Jim Hill. Griffin was a a “behind the scenes” contributor, Hill said, who preferred working over being in the spotlight.

Hill worked for Griffin when he was a senator in the 1970s, first as an intern and then as a legislative assistant.

“I would work 18 hours a day, seven days a week,” Hill said. “But I loved it. He had high standards for everyone, but he held himself to those standards too.”

Griffin was described as a “perfectionist” who wanted to be “respected and trusted,” Hill said.

Griffin is noted for advising Nixon to resign in 1974 after the Watergate scandal. He approached Nixon before his notorious televised confession and convinced him as Republican minority whip to resign.

“He was worried that Nixon would break into tears on live television,” Hill said.

Griffin served 22 years in Congress. After a decade in the U.S. House of Representatives, he was appointed to the Senate in 1966 following the death of Senator Patrick Mc-

According to Amber Schneider, assistant director of Study Abroad, Italy was the most popular country to study abroad in during the 2013-2014 year, with 81 students studying there.

In the 2013-2014 year, 572 students studied abroad in 35 different countries. England was the second top location, with 72 students. Denmark, Ireland, Mexico and Spain were tied for the third most popular location, with 39 students studying in each one.

Schneider said the number of students studying in Ireland might have gone up because of a low-cost program offered this year.

Historically, Italy is always in the top three and Ireland, Mexico and England are in the top five.

Schneider said she thinks the main factors that influence where students choose to study abroad are the presence of faculty-led programs, academic requirements and cost.

Saginaw senior Kimberly chose to study in Italy because she wanted to learn accessory design and it was affordable.

“I started off looking at the fashion merchandising and design faculty-led trip to Paris,” Johnson said. “I had some friends go on the trip and they loved it but it was only for three weeks and I knew I wanted to study abroad for longer.”

Other students chose their locations for the cultural experience.

“In the summer, a lot of students don’t have a specific major or minor requirement they’re focusing on, so they’ll choose a country where they might be interested in learning about the culture and take a culturally focused course,” Schneider said.

Senior Triestina Casasanta studied abroad at the American University of Rome after realizing the program she was interested in was out of her price range.

“I really wanted to throw

myself in a situation where I needed to learn a language in order to get around the city,” Casasanta said.

She said going to Italy would give her the opportunity to travel to other interesting locations as well.

Lansing senior Damaris Blatt said she chose Spain because she wanted to go to Europe and was also interested in the culture.

“I think Spain is a popular place to study because of its location,” Blatt said.

“It’s much easier to travel to Mexico or Costa Rica later, but traveling to Europe seems to fall into this college to-do list.”

Nunica senior Andrea Ritz said scholarships, degree requirements, her academic schedule and desire to travel to new places influenced her study abroad decisions.

She was able to complete two required business courses while studying in Denmark.

“Last summer, I chose to study abroad in Denmark to complete required classes for my degree, which were offered at the Copenhagen Business School,” said Ritz.

“The thought of spending my summer in Europe the first time was exciting, and Copenhagen seemed like a unique place to go.”

Grand Ledge senior Gabrielle Kromer also fulfilled requirements for her major through study abroad. She chose a faculty-led program in Denmark because it allowed students to take required courses for the Special Education program.

“I hadn’t yet taken one of the classes offered, so I chose to take part in it because I had an interest in study abroad,” Kromer said. “I have always had the desire to study abroad, but have also always been concerned about the logistical challenges with studying for an entire semester.”

Though she chose the program and didn’t specifically choose Denmark, she said she also found Denmark’s culture interesting and thought the country was a less popular study abroad location than Italy and other locations.

Spring forward

Rush, first-team offense take the field in spring football game

By Taylor DesOrmeau Staff Reporter

In his first game since throwing for seven touchdowns at The Bahamas Bowl, junior quarterback Cooper Rush emerged as the leader of the offense, as his Maroon team handled the Gold team 27-6 in Saturday’s spring football game.

Rush connected with senior tight end Ben McCord, senior wide receiver Jesse Kroll and sophomore wide receiver Corey Willis for touchdowns in the first half. He finished the day 22-for-26 with 197 yards.

“I was very pleased with (Rush),” said Head Coach John Bonamego. “He didn’t turn the ball over, he moved the ball, he’s a very poised guy out there. I can’t say enough good things about him.”

Bonamego allowed each side a couple of trick plays each. The Maroon team, which featured most of the first-team offense in order to build chemistry, took advantage.

After a backwards pass from Rush to Kroll, Kroll hit sophomore wide receiver Mark Chapman for a 29-yard touchdown. “(When I heard the call,) I

was like ‘Let’s go, we’re getting it in the end zone,’” Kroll said. “I want to give a shout out to Mark Chapman for catching it because I threw that thing pretty low. I’m lucky that it was him out there.”

Statistics for the running backs were not recorded, but junior Martez Walker and sophomore Devon Spalding saw the most time. Freshman Jarrod Davis and junior Maurice Shoemaker-Gilmore also received multiple carries, although Shoemaker-Gilmore

fumbled.

“I think we have more than just two (running backs),” Bonamego said. “I think (Walker and Spalding) bring something different when they’re in the game. I think we’re in good shape with our running backs.”

Senior running back Saylor Lavallii didn’t play Saturday due to injury, but is also expected to be near the top of the depth chart.

Bonamego said he has seen the players buy into his system and

Kroll said the difference is already apparent.

“From the start of the spring until now, it’s a night-and-day difference,” Kroll said. “There’s been so much improvement. Especially with penalties and stuff. When we do that, you can see that we move the ball well and can be a powerful offense.”

Without running back Thomas Rawls and wide receiver Titus

The quarterback is unequivocally the most important position on any professional or college football team.

Passers like Peyton Manning, Tom Brady and Aaron Rodgers are regarded by many as personifying hallmarks of the sport’s nature: Toughness, poise under pressure and strategic intelligence.

At Central Michigan University, we have a sure-handed option in this prime category: Cooper Rush.

The Chippewas’ red-haired, gunslinging signal caller has a ceiling that continues to get higher before our very eyes.

Rush’s performance in Saturday’s annual Maroon vs. Gold scrimmage was reassuring. For the first time in his entire career at CMU, Rush entered the offseason as CMU’s starting QB. It has not come easy to Rush, who enters his junior season this fall and has had somewhat of a bumpy ride on the road to the starting gig.

Think back to the fall of 2012 when Rush was redshirted and was the third-string quarterback heading into the following season.

After two CMU passers went down with injury during Rush’s first year in pads, he was thrust into the Kelly/Shorts Stadium spotlight.

Leading a comeback against Division II New Hampshire was Rush’s first notable accomplishment behind center. It was a taste of what the budding star would eventually be capable of.

Much like the team as a whole that fall, Rush was painfully mediocre in 2013, throwing 15 touchdowns and 15 interceptions while CMU finished 6-6 and missed the postseason.

After winning the starting job over senior Cody Kater in training camp that spring, Rush had his best season last year.

Standout offensive weapons like Titus Davis and Thomas Rawls helped Rush’s numbers and more importantly, his confidence.

Rush’s most recent validating act came in the inaugural Popeyes Bahamas Bowl, a game during which the kid from Charlotte threw seven touchdowns on the tiny island on which CMU’s comeback effort came up short.

Saturday was a reminder of how far Rush as come, and all the things he has experienced along the way.

Davis and Rawls are gone. So is the coach that recruited Rush.

Under first-year Head Coach John Bonamego, there are many uncertain factors surrounding this largely unproved and inexperienced team.

In a sense, a good football team is a carefully constructed and incredibly complex riddle that Bonamego still has four months to solve.

Thankfully, the Chippewas already have the most important piece of the puzzle in place.

Baseball falls to Bowling Green, loses first conference series since April 2014

By Taylor DesOrmeau Staff Reporter

After winning eight consecutive Mid-American Conference series, Central Michigan University baseball lost two of three games to Bowling Green State University at home this weekend.

The Chippewas still maintain the best record in the MAC at 13-5 (2815 overall) with nine games remaining on the schedule.

The last time CMU lost a weekend series was in April 2014, when the Chippewas were swept by Ball State University at home.

Sunday

Bowling Green scored one run in the first, second, third, fifth and

seventh innings, beating CMU 5-1.

“It’s probably the best (BGSU) has played, but it doesn’t matter,” said Head Coach Steve Jaksa. “That’s the task you’re given when you’re in the position that you’re at, people are going to play a certain way against you.”

Junior pitcher Adam Aldred (3-2, 3.25 ERA) lasted 3 2/3 innings giving up three earned runs. BGSU outhit CMU 16-3.

Freshman outfielder Daniel Jipping hit a ball deep to left field, but BGSU’s Matt Smith’s leaping grab over the wall sent Jipping back to the dugout.

Junior designated hitter hit a pinch-hit double in the eighth inning, CMU’s only extra-base hit of the day.

Saturday

Timely hitting and strong starting pitching helped CMU take game two in the series 3-1 over BGSU. Senior pitcher Tim Black recorded his 10th save of the season and the 19th of his career, breaking the program record.

“It means a lot,” Black said.

“There have been a lot of great pitchers that have come through here. It’s exciting. I just go out there and do my thing and it works out for me.”

Junior pitcher Sean Renzi (3-1, 2.04 ERA) started on the mound for CMU, throwing eight innings, giving up one earned runs on six hits and struck out six batters.

“I just tried to go out there and really attack the zone and make

them put the ball in play,” Renzi said. “At first I started throwing a lot of fastballs, but around the third inning I started to mix in the off-speed pitches and I was able to locate them.”

Senior second baseman Pat MacKenzie led CMU with two runs scored to go along with his first career home run. w baseball | 2B

Cori Kromrei Indianapolis senior Trista Cox gets ready to bat aginst Kent State University on April 19 in Margo Jonker stadium.

Three long months of competition, struggles, gains and rainouts have brought us all to this point.

After its latest doubleheader showing against Northern Illinois University, Central Michigan softball is staring at its final set of games of the 2015 regular season.

Luckily for the Chippewas, all of them will be played at Margo Jonker Stadium.

These final five games played against the Michigan State University, the University of Toledo and Bowling Green State University will give CMU a chance to position themselves nicely when the time comes for the Mid-American Conference Tournament to start.

Of course, the Chippewas are coming from yet another pivotal set of games on the road against teams directly above them at third and second in the MAC west division standings.

They were up to the task at hand, playing good fundamental softball and winning three of four games against rival Western Michigan and Northern Illinois.

A Sweep of the Broncos and the split against the Huskies came at a great time for CMU within the division standings. It ensured the team a winning record on the weekend road trip.

appreciative of the home support the program has received over the years and 2015 has not been an exception.

Playing to a 4-4 record in Mount Pleasant this year is something that can and has to be improved as the season winds to a close.

Jonker would probably say something similar.

Sub-.500 at home is something that is will not be acceptable for the Chippewas.

Five games at home, including four inside the MAC, is the last opportunity for Jonker’s team to give the local fans something to cheer about.

With the MAC Tournament set to begin in less than three weeks. in Akron, Oh., she would like to enter it boasting a positive home record for the season.

At 22-19 the Chippewas would like to improve its total in the win column to be at a comfortable 27 by the time it is all over with.

It is definitely possible and they have the prime chance to do so in front of the supportive home fans.

Home-field advantage can be overlooked, but at this final stage of the season, it is difficult to ingnore.
