character: from 1 character campaign looked like. A survey was created with the help of a UNL campaigns class and given to the student body to discover what kinds of positive characteristics they saw other students exhibiting, Carr said. From that research, “Show Your Red” was created in the form of six building blocks of integrity: citizenship, dependability, commitment, respect, caring and open-mindedness. After that, the next step was to find a way to get the student body to care about the campaign. “I would love it if everyone cared about showing integrity and creating positive influences on campus, but you can’t get a person to care about something simply by telling them to care about it,” Carr said. He also said that the campaign is more about getting students to acknowledge when other students, as well as faculty members, are doing well. Student Affairs would like everyone to realize that it doesn’t have to specifically be a faculty member recognizing a student, but vice versa as well. “I would happily recognize an individual if someone came to me and told me they had seen positive characteristics being displayed,”

During 8Friday’s7 convocation, the students heard a few examples 7 1 of integrity 6 that had happened at the New Student 4 Enrollment Kickoff Camp this past summer. One of these examples 5

included Erandi Herndon, anHARDundeclared freshman, who sprained her ankle a week before the camp began and continued to push through the activities despite her injury. In Carr’s eyes, this act was showing her commitment — her integrity, her “red.” If a student performs any of the six traits of integrity and is identified by another individual while doing so, they receive a pin that resembles that specific trait. Last semester, Student Affairs decided to jump-start the campaign with “Operation Red,” which held a very similar purpose. Major said the jump-start was the office’s way of seeing if students would respond as hoped. “Small tokens for a free ice cream were offered as the temporary awards during that time.” HARD

Due to the progress “Operation Red” had shown, Student Affairs decided that this semester would be the perfect time to launch the campaign, especially now that UNL had entered the Big Ten Conference. The “Show Your Red” campaign is also using social media to promote its cause. Not only does it have its own page on the UNL website, but also on Twitter and Facebook. “With the continued growth in students interest# 5 campaign, we ed with the hope to eventually get to the point of digitally posting everyday dilemmas on the Web,” Major said. Major said she believes that students will respond to the posted dilemmas and offer their advice, showing their integrity in the process. Franco said there is a large amount of room for expansion with the campaign. “At the end of the year, we hope to have a barbecue to celebrate all of those who are involved with the campaign,” Franco said. “On top of that, a ‘Show Your Red’ honors society (is in the works) for students who not only achieve well academically, but show a positive amount of integrity as well.”

“Makes you puff out your chest a little to be a part of something like that,” Falcone said. With the move to the Big Ten, Johnson said it reminds her of the excitement on campus in the fall of 1972, after the Huskers won their second national championship. She feels that same atmosphere returning to campus — making it a place, she said, it hasn’t been in a long time. “Campus used to kind of crackle in anticipation of an event and I think it’s coming back,” she said. On Sept. 3, when the Huskers take the field against the University of Tennessee at Chattanooga for the first game, the 30-year-old pregame show will look and sound the same. But the title of the first halftime show, he said, sets a musical stage for the rest of the season: “The Start of Something B1G.”

The week leading up to Sept. 11 will feature memorial events such as a remembrance wall for students to write where they were on 9/11 and a live memorial wall with names and photos of the 70 fallen Nebraska soldiers since 2001. The week will conclude with a Patriot Day Memorial service and

schools, like Wisconsin, nor will it change from a precision drill band to a picture band, like Michigan or Ohio State, he said. A picture band tends to create recognizable images in its formations. For example, Falcone said, if a picture band played the Simpson’s theme, they might form Homer Simpson’s head. In a precision drill band, the Cornhusker Marching Band forms more geometric or abstract shapes, Falcone said. He said picture formations are only included when the music #6 calls for them. Falcone said during band leadership interviews, members said they wanted the band to step it up this year, as many schools will be seeing the band for the first time. Plus, Falcone said, the welcoming UNL and its marching band have received from Big Ten peers has boosted bandmember pride.

Tom Osborne, the Nebraska athletic director, makes the final decision on which games the band will attend. This year, the 50-member pep band will make trips to the University of Wyoming, University of Wisconsin-Madison and University of Minnesota, with the full 209-memHARD ber band playing at the University of Michigan game, Falcone said. The pep band fits on one bus, while the full band will take six buses and a semi-trailer to Ann Arbor, Mich. Stylistically, the band will remain the same, Falcone said.

No big events are planned in remembrance, but there will be an area for students to stop and remember Hurricane Katrina. “Mostly, this is just a remembrance of the event,” Kamler said. “We’ll have headlines posted and a small collection box that will go to the Red Cross.” Both of these bills were created with the Office of

Civic Engagement in mind, as ASUN is experimenting with its relationship with the office, Kamler said. “Civic engagement has resources we don’t have,” said Lane Carr, a senior history and political science major and ASUN president. “These are small ways to start the process of working with them and to spark civic engagement in students.” The senate passed both bills unanimously. Carr is excited for the year ASUN has ahead of it and let the senators know. “I’m pumped up for the year that we have ahead,” Carr said. “We’re excited to see how you can help us with our goals and see what you guys can come up with.”
