Five Guys is considering opening a location in Mount Pleasant. On Jan. 5, the Five Guys Burgers and Fries Michigan Facebook asked where residents of Mount Pleasant would want a location in the city. The page asked if they would like it on either Mission Street or Pickard Road. A Five Guys representative said nothing has been finalized. The potential franchisee is BAC Holdings, which operates more than 30 other Five Guys locations in Michigan and Illinois, according to its website.

The Facebook page said the response to the post has been incredible. “We really don’t have anything to share yet,” the page wrote. “We’re really in the discovery phase now.” Five Guys is an American restaurant chain that began in Arlington, Virginia in 1986, according to their website. The chain has over 1,500 locations around the world and specializes in hamburgers, fries and milkshakes.

STUDENTS, FACULTY EXPRESS STRUGGLES WITH WIFI ISSUES ON CAMPUS

Hurry! Deadline is Monday, February 11 @ Noon

NEWS AND NOTES FROM AROUND CAMPUS

things you do... It’s in the simple .... The way you listen .. The way you care.

IS IN THE AIR.

Students know the experience all too well: the spinning, “loading” icon. WiFi at Central Michigan University has never had a reputation for being reliable, and with the start of a new semester, connecting to the WiFi has remained an ongoing obstacle. These issues have generated reasonable complaints and stress among students and faculty who rely on the internet for academic resources. David Kinney, sociology faculty member, experienced frustrating internet troubles when he asked his sociology students to access online materials during class Jan. 10. “For the first five to 10 minutes of class, (the internet) wasn’t working and people were getting frustrated,” Kinney said. “(Once tech support was contacted), it worked out, but it was somewhat disconcerting at the beginning and my students were a bit perturbed.” Likewise, Port Austin freshman Lauren Aymen battled with the WiFi for a couple of days, trying to connect her laptop to the internet. She eventually managed to connect after moving in between different buildings on campus. “Although I had my old laptop to use, I was just kind of upset that the process to connect to the WiFi was so difficult,” Aymen said. “(Without WiFi), you have no access to class announcements, homework assignments and other important academic things.”

According to Kole Taylor, manager of communications and enablement at the Office of Information Technology, the problems that have surfaced for students and faculty are typical and resolved fairly quickly. “Asides from any technical reasons, we look at the survey results from tickets and feedback, and I haven’t noticed anything out of the norm as far as WiFi complaints go,” he said. “It all seems pretty standard fare to me.” WiFi only has such a range, so it’s not uncommon to encounter frustrating blips with the internet. “We have access points all over the place in all of the buildings. It’s possible for one of them to have an issue at some point,” Taylor said. “They tend to recover gracefully, but that would explain why a bunch of people in one area could have an issue.” Students and faculty who are continuing to face issues can stop by the Office of Information Technology in the Charles V. Park Library. Some tips for connecting to the internet include re-registering to the “Cmich GOLD” WiFi account, checking that your device is up to date on software and shutting down and restarting. “A lot of times the same thing we tell people over the phone is the best option: turn it off and back on again,” Kole said. -Teresa Homsi, Staff Reporter

Elliott may face additional accusers Attorney General investigators found women who detailed allegations of sexual assault, drugging By Emma Dale Editor-in-Chief editor@cm-life.com

Court documents in the sexual assault case against a former Central Michigan University Student Government Association president provide insight about additional allegations of sexual assault and drugging women. Ian Elliott, 24, of Cheboygan, appeared Jan. 10 in Isabella County Trial Court for a preliminary examination. It was rescheduled for Feb. 11-12. Elliott who previously served as the SGA president, is charged with two counts of third degree criminal sexual conduct and one count of assault with intent to commit sexual penetration. Elliott is accused of sexually assaulting CMU graduate student Rachel Wilson on Aug. 31, 2016 after meeting her at The Cabin. In an interview with CM Life, Wilson described feeling disoriented after meeting up with Elliott even though she had only consumed 1 1/2 beers. Later, Elliott took her to his apartment where she vomited and passed out. She told police he sexually assaulted her after she regained consciousness. The university’s Office of Civil Rights and Institutional Equity investigators found in Wilson’s favor and determined that the man had “engaged in sexual assault” in its case report. The office found that he engaged in sexual contact with a person who “was incapacitated on the evening of Aug. 31.” She “therefore was incapable of consenting to sexual activity,” the report states. OCRIE recommended that he be “suspended from the university for an appropriate amount of time” and that he have no further contact with Wilson. The university expelled Elliott. Student Government Association posted on social media that Elliott resigned “due to personal reasons and opportunities.” Criminal charges were originally

filed against Elliott in early 2018. The case was scheduled to go to trial in May 2018, but was dismissed by acting Isabella County Prosecuting Attorney Robert Holmes in April 2018. On Oct. 31, 2018, the Michigan Attorney General’s Office filed a motion to reinstate the charges against Elliott. In December, the motion was denied by visiting Judge Kimberly Booher of Mecosta County. New charges were filed by the Michigan Attorney General’s Office on Dec. 20 and a warrant was issued for Elliott’s arrest. After he surrendered to police on Dec. 21, Elliott was arraigned on the three counts and a preliminary examination was scheduled. At the reinstatement motion hearing on Dec. 18, Assistant Attorney General Brian Kolodziej, who is leading the case, said he had found other women who say they were

assaulted by Elliott, which Kolodziej noted happened in a similar way. According to court documents, “Witness 4” told police on one occasion Elliott was intoxicated and pulled his pants down, exposing his penis and demanded sex. The documents note that Elliott is accused of slapping Witness 4 in the face and “wanted her to reciprocate.” Other incidents Witness 4 described include Elliott becoming intoxicated and using “forceful assaultive behavior toward her” during sex. The last incident Witness 4 described happened after Elliott offered her Adderall which she refused to take. When they were having sex, Elliott “struck her with enough force to push her off of the bed.” Court documents state she suffered bruising severe enough that it resulted in her parents contacting police. Witness 4 also stated that she knows of at least two other women who had similar experiences with

Elliott. “Witness 5” recalled a time she was given chocolates by Elliott. Later that evening she discovered the candy was an edible containing THC. Elliott also gave her wine. Witness 5 told police she began to feel “unusually intoxicated in a way that she had never felt before.” She felt nauseous and said she had no control over her motor skills. After noting this, she said Elliott responded to her by saying “Good, that’s how I want you to feel.” Elliott attempted to kiss Witness 5, which she was refused. Elliott continued to initiate sex with her. Witness 5 told police he said, “Why did you come here if you didn’t want to have sex with me?” Witness 5 said Elliott refused to take her home. She told police she passed out on the couch and woke up in Elliott’s bed, lying next to him. According to the documents, Witness 5 encountered Elliott other

times, and one time at a party where another incident happened. At the party, Elliott “fish hooked” the witness, which means inserting his finger in her mouth. When he did this, he put Xanax in her mouth. After doing that she said he was kicked out of the party by friends upset by his behavior. The alleged assault of Wilson that Elliott is being charged for, is noted to have happened in a similar way as the two witnesses. According to court documents, Elliott exposed himself and demanded Wilson to give him oral sex. After she refused, he also said to her, “Don’t you understand how this works? Why did you even come here?” The preliminary examination that is set to take place at 9 a.m. on Feb. 11 and Feb. 12 at the Isabella County Trial Courthouse will include this new information and witness testimonies. Judge Eric Janes will be hearing the case.

WHERE IS OUR MONEY GOING? The university should give more transparency on the $225 Student Service There wasn’t a tuition increase for the 201819 school year, but Central Michigan University students are paying more this year. In June, the Board of Trustees approved a $225 per semester student service fee. That fee is charged to every student, regardless of their location and how many classes they are taking. The $225 per semester fee is estimated to collect an additional $10 million from students annually. What is it for? How is it being spent? We are required to pay this fee, shouldn’t it be required for the university to tell us on where all of this money goes? In June, trustees said the money will help fund: • Academic advising • Career development and placement services • Counseling services • Leadership development for all students • Financial wellness and management initiatives • Mentoring and success coaching • Student engagement programming • Student recreation and wellness • Technology upgrades and support • Campus safety When Central Michigan Life reporters interviewed Office of Finance and Administrative Services administrators in September, it seemed

EDITORIAL that those fee dollars went primarily toward campus safety and health services (including new staff at the counseling center). But even those administrators didn’t have an exact breakdown of how that money will be spent in the future. If students are required to pay this fee every semester, we believe we should have more information on where the money is going. Even in the context of the university’s almost half-billion dollar budget, $10 million taken through a student fee is a lot money. When the fee was approved by trustees, there wasn’t much discussion before the vote – though it was noted that most other state universities collected similar student service fees. We want to challenge President Bob Davies and trustees to provide a more thorough and open accounting of where these dollars are being spent. Students deserve to know where their money is going. Since the fee was designed to improve student services, we should know what services are bettered on campus as a result of our $225

per-semester contribution. At an Academic Senate meeting in November, Barrie Wilkes, vice president of finance and administrative services, explained the fee money was spent on: • Staffing the Office of Civil Rights and Institutional Equity (OCRIE) • Advancing enrollment services • Center for Inclusion and Diversity • The upcoming commencement ceremony for Fall 2018 • Hiring additional police officers for campus security. At this meeting, faculty were critical of the fee. We share their concerns. Funding the enrollment initiatives? Helping pay for commencement? It seems that the “student service fee” dollars are being spent in other ways than were initially explained. What about other “student services” that are truly services for students to use of participate in – Student Government, Program Board and Student Media? Why don’t these organizations qualify to receive some of these dollars that are going to expand the campus police force? We don’t know the answers to these questions and neither do you. It’s time for President Davies and our trustees to tell us. We deserve to know.

Adding women in government the next step for gender equality America ranks 49 out of 144 countries in eliminating the gender gap, according to the World Economic Forum. We rank fairly high in terms of economic participation, education and health for women. Our downfall is that we rank 96 in terms of political figures. This was a 2017 report but we made progress during the 2018 midterm elections. Previously, the highest number of women serving in the House of Representatives was 85, making up only 19.5 percent of the House, according to the Center for American Women and Politics. Women make up 23 percent of the Senate. After the midterms, 103 women are now in the House. Senator of Wisconsin Tammy Baldwin was reelected during this midterm. She uses her voice to fight for access to maternity care in rural regions, giving a voice to an issue that men don't always think about. It is an problem that women in the United States do not have as strong of a voice as men do. Why should issues

Bridget Bittmann Staff Reporter

that directly affect women, such as access to birth control, be decided by men? By no means do women need to control the government or have more seats in Congress than men, but we should have equal representation. Having women in government is beneficial for countries as a whole. First off, women in government serve as role models for young girls, which helps these young girls remain invested in their education and have higher goals for their future careers. According to the Organization for Economic Cooperation and Development, women tend to use their income more to give back to their families and community more than men do. They invest more into the

community, which in turn helps raise the GDP. Economy is always on the forefront of people’s minds, so it’s important to recognize that more women in politics and the work force boosts our economy. An article in the American Journal of Political Science found that citizens are more likely to trust a decision from the government in which women had input. The trust between the people and government tends to run thin in the United States right now. Electing more women into government could help regain this trust. Science Daily shares that there are lower rates of corruption in countries with more women in government largely because women tend to focus more on policies related to family, children and women. Some people think that women are just not fit for government positions because they can’t handle the stress. An article from Forbes shares that when women are under pressure to make decisions, their stress actually helps them in decision making. Women

are more likely than men to analyze heavy data. When faced with the stress, women make decisions that guarantee a win based on research. When men are under stress they tend to take larger gambles than they normally would. Similarly, women also tend to have higher social sensitivity, meaning they read non-verbal cues better than men. This is helpful during debates and discussion and can increase the productivity of a group. Women can face these stressful situations, and they should have the opportunity to handle the stress that accompanies government positions. I hope the United States continues to make strides in gender equality by electing more women into government positions. This midterm election was a step – a big step – and it should be celebrated. However, to clap our hands and say that we now have a sufficient amount of women as political leaders would be ignorance. We still have much further to go.

While many people would describe them as ska-punk, fitting into a genre isn’t something Lansing-based band Grey Matter is all too concerned about. Formed in 2014, the band has a habit of changing their sound and constantly evolving. Mack Doyle, the band’s lead singer, said the band could be described as “emotional ska-core” or simply a punk band. The band doesn’t try to stick to labels. “The cool part about being in Grey Matter is that we never really limited ourselves to be like ‘this is what we want to sound like,’” Doyle said. “There’s never been a rigid structure (to our sound) because we don’t belong in a single genre.” This creative freedom lead to a notable sound shift in the past. Doyle said the band used to be a “weird hardcore” group that used keyboards. As time went on, Doyle started to incorporate more upstrokes with his music, giving the music a more ska-punk feel. When the band lost its keyboard player, horn players were added in early 2018, leading them to morph into a different sound. When the horn players were added, the band became a seven-piece. The current lineup of Grey Matter consists of: · Doyle on vocals · Jake Matter on bass · Emma on guitar

· Nick LaForge on drums · Piper Bazard on trumpet · Ryley Olson on trombone · Dominic Bierenga on saxophone Each band member is influenced by different bands, they said. This is something that helps their music stay fresh. “One of the things about Grey Matter is that we are all influenced by drastically different things,” Bierenga said. “When we all come together to create (music), the music that results from that is really interesting and eclectic.” The members don’t just differ from musical backgrounds — many of them come from different places, too. In total, there are two CMU alumni (LaForge and Bierenga) and one current CMU student in the band (Olson). Olson, a junior from Grand Rapids, is the youngest member of the band. She began playing the trombone seven years ago and always hoped to join a band one day. In September 2018, her wish came true. “I always wanted to do heavy music with horns,” Olson said. “All of a sudden, I’m randomly asked to be in my dream band.” Her first performance with Grey Matter was opening for famed Michigan ska-punk group Mustard Plug on Sept. 30. The band is working on a new album that has yet to be named. Bazard said they are embarking on a West Coast tour and will be playing Michigan festivals like Bled Fest on May 15th in Hartland and Stoop Fest on April 21st in Lansing.

New season, same success Chippewas never lost the lead against the Redbirds during meet Jan. 12 By Austin Chastain Staff Reporter sports@cm-life.com

Central Michigan gymnastics led the Illinois State Redbirds by almost a full point after the first rotation and never relinquished the lead. The Chippewas (1-0) dominated the Redbirds (0-1) with a 195.275-190.050 victory Jan. 12 in McGuirk Arena. “In the gym we worked hard on that half-tenth better,” said junior Denelle Pedrick. “It showed up, we improved to that 195 which was our goal for this meet. Next meet it will be the same thing, half-tenth better.” Freshman Kennedy Johnson and sophomore Sierra Demarinis led the Chippewas on the vault in their first rotation, each scoring 9.750. Sydney Williams, a junior, had a strong showing with a 9.725 as did freshman Morgan Tong. In the second rotation, the teams switched events. The Chippewas on the uneven bars and the Redbirds had their turn on the vault.

Plaksa posted a 9.800 to lead the Chippewas, her strong routine was capped off with a strong landing to give her the win in the individual event. Senior Abbie Zoeller followed behind with a 9.775. CMU scored 48.750 on the uneven bars and brought its running total to 97.375. The Chippewas were strong on the beam, it was their second-best team event of the meet with a team score of 48.800. Senior Skyler Memmel led the way with a 9.800, Tong and senior Macey Hilliker followed with a 9.775, Plaksa and Pedrick each scored a 9.725. Memmel, Tong and Hilliker took first, second and third, respectively in the individual event. Memmel, only competing on the beam the last two meets, scored a 9.725 her last time out. “I’m very happy with my performance tonight,” Memmel said. “Last week I was a little bit anxious so I got in the gym, worked hard, and I felt a lot better about my performance.” After three rotations, Central

Michigan had a commanding 146.175-142.255 lead over Illinois State. This season, the Chippewas usually have had to come from behind and win in the final rotation. This was not the case on Friday. “We try not to let the numbers dictate what’s in our heads,” coach Jerry Reighard said. “After beam, I got them together and said, ‘you got to fight, that’s what this is all about, just fight until the end and things will be great.’” In the fourth and final rotation, the Chippewas took to their strongest event, the floor exercise, while the Redbirds went to the balance beam. Plaksa, who won the allaround competition, posted a 9.850 as did sophomore Nora Fettinger to lead Central Michigan. Zoeller scored a 9.825, Williams posted a 9.800 and Demarinis rounded out the team with a 9.775 posting for a team score of 49.100. The Chippewas will be on the road for over a month as they travel to Denver on Jan. 19 for a quad against Denver, Texas and Sacramento State.

Basketball falls in closing minutes against Bowling Green By Andrew McDonald Sports Editor sports@cm-life.com

Hunter McLaren | Staff Photographer Senior guard Shawn Roundtree makes his way down the court on Jan. 12 in McGuirk Arena.

With a minute left in regulation, Bowling Green erased a six point deficit and would go on to win 97-87 in overtime in a heartbreaking loss for the Central Michigan men’s basketball team. Just as quick as CMU (13-3, 2-1) brought McGuirk Arena to its feet with a 14-point second half comeback, it lost the lead and silence echoed the walls. “I think that final minute comes down to us two,” said Shawn Roundtree Jr. pointing at Larry Austin Jr. “It comes down to execution and taking care of the ball. In those situations, we just have to be better.” The loss snaps the Chippewas seven-game winning streak. CMU also suffers its first loss at home and of MAC play. “It was kind of the opposite with Akron when we felt we let the game slip out of our hands and still won,” said head coach Keno Davis. “The wins and losses are what they are, for us it’s how we get better

from this. When up so many points in the future with so much time, what are you going to do and react next time.” The Falcons fired away from downtown early and found the bottom of the net 3-of-4 times, as a result BGSU held the early 12-5 advantage. Senior guard Larry Austin Jr. put in layup after layup to pull the Chippewas back within two, 2119, with 7:24 left in the first half. Triples would continue to fall for BGSU as they went 6-of-11 from deep in the first half and posted a 38-31 lead going into the locker room. BGSU would open up a 52-38 lead with 13:14 left in the second half as the Chippewas still couldn’t find a 3-pointer. Things were starting to get out of hand. Junior forward David DiLeo and transfer guard Dallas Morgan knocked down a pair of 3-pointers CMU had to have. BGSU’s lead was trimmed to 65-60 with 7:08 to go. Morgan didn’t stop. He hit backto-back triples and the Chippewas were back in front, 66-65, with just

over six minutes to play. BGSU’s Justin Turner would sink two free throws late and complete a six-point comeback in the final minute of the game. It was tied at 78 all heading to overtime. The Chippewas turned the ball over three times in the final minute of overtime and BGSU hit its free throws to close out the victory. Austin led the team with 26 points but the Falcon’s Turner led everyone with 30 points. CMU finished just 9-of-30 (30 percent) from deep with all the makes coming in the second half. The Chippewas were out-rebounded 46-44 against BGSU who averages 11.4 more boards than its opponents on the campaign. “We missed a lot (of rebounds) we could have got,” Austin said. “I feel like we could’ve crashed a little more. But they are top five in the country in rebounding so I think we did pretty well against them.” The Chippewas will head back on the road for the second time in conference play at 8 p.m. on Jan. 15 to take on Northern Illinois in Dekalb.

Bussell rids herself of stubbornness, becomes threat for CMU By Evan Petzold Assistant Sports Editor sports@cm-life.com

Four games into the 2018-19 season, sophomore forward Kyra Bussell was far from coachable. Bussell was stubborn, and coach Sue Guevara was vexed – not a plausible combination. Standing at the center circle in McGuirk Arena, Guevara unleashed her thoughts, feelings and emotions on Bussell. Glaring at Bussell square in the eyes, Guevara questioned, “Bussell, when are you going to stop being so stubborn? When are you going to be coachable? We could really use you.” Bussell, through four games, was averaging 2.5 points, 3.8 rebounds and a handful of mistakes off the bench. Coming into the season, Guevara had high hopes for the second-year Chippewa, but there was minimal production on the court. Guevara said she pleaded for Bussell to make a handful of changes but only saw the same poor result on game day. Bussell rarely played with her back to the basket, wouldn’t turn to the basket, rushed through every play and didn’t make her reads. Most of the time, those situations resulted in turnovers. “At one point, I didn’t think she was being very coachable,” Guevara exclaimed. “I thought she was being really stubborn, and I told her that. It got the point where I was frustrated.” But Guevara, in her 12th-year as CMU’s coach,

got in Bussell’s head – as she has done with countless players over the past decade. Days after Guevara’s conversation at mid-court was a Nov. 25 clash against Chattanooga, the final match of the Cavalier Classic. Bussell poured in 14 points, seven rebounds, one assist, one block and one steal in 23 minutes. With just one concrete performance under her belt at the time, there still wasn’t a conclusion. But Bussell did it again. Then a third time, and she’s never quit. Nowadays, a 10-plus point performance from the forward is second nature, even with freshman center Jahari Smith continuously starting ahead of her. “Honestly, it’s just me embracing my role,” Bussell said. “That’s my job, and I’m doing it to the best of my capabilities. It’s all about the team.” Bussell’s top performance of the season was a 19 point, eight rebound effort in a Dec. 29 loss to Tulane, 68-57, in the Miami Holiday Classic. With senior guard Presley Hudson and senior forward Reyna Frost being held to seven and 12 points, respectively, Bussell carried the Chippewas on her back. “She’s been more aggressive, grabbed rebounds and has a little bit of a dog in her that we are seeing now,” Guevara said. “There was a point where she would turn the ball over instead of shooting it. They were one-handed passes without fakes.” Even though Bussell’s performance against Tulane was her purest form moxie, her favorite game was on Dec. 2 – when CMU earned a 67-52 revenge-filled victory against Quinnipiac on the road in Connecticut.

File Photo | Central Michigan Life Freshman forward Kyra Bussell cheers during the basketball game against Eastern Michigan on March 7, 2018 at Quicken Loans Arena.

Just a year ago, the Bobcats topped CMU at McGuirk Arena. Bussell made sure there wasn’t a repeat of failure with seven points, two rebounds, a perfect shooting night from beyond the arc and quality

defense in 25 minutes played. “Every rebound and every point mattered,” Bussell said. “That’s a matchup we could see in March, so doing all the little things was most important.” Bussell has turned the corner and opened a new chapter in her book, now averaging 7.3 points and 4.7 rebounds in 20 minutes per game for Guevara. With stubbornness behind her, Bussell is ready to uncover what is a mystery to many – her 3-point shot. “It’s serious. She’s legit,” Guevara said of Bussell’s outside shot. “What I like about it is she’s a pick-andpopper. It’s nice to see the confidence come in her.” When Bussell committed to join CMU on Sept. 1, she knew shooting the 3-pointer with success was a necessity, not a choice, under Guevara. Her high school coach, Trevor Hinshaw, knew Bussell’s versatility would play a colossal role at the collegiate level. “Kyra is a really versatile player for her size,” Hinshaw explained. “She can step out and knock down shots at the perimeter, and she can go low and block shots and get you points as well.” The next step for Bussell’s move toward stardom is to improve handling the basketball, which is vital for attacking the rim with authority and running the fast break succeeding a rebound. But for now, Guevara’s enjoying the newfound coachability in her up-and-coming forward. “Some kids get stubborn and keep doing the same thing over and over,” Guevara said while smiling. “When I say coachability, I can see her making the change. “Absolutely love it.”
