Wrestlers named University Nationals All-Americans The best in collegiate wrestling flocked to Akron, Ohio, this past weekend to compete in the ASICS University Nationals. Of the 14 Cyclone wrestlers in attendance, two came away from the freestyle tournament with University Nationals All-America honors.

Sophomore John Meeks took home 7th place after his 8-2 victory against Avery Garner of Utah Valley. Meeks finished the tournament with a 5-2 record and was named a University Nationals All-American.

Michael Moreno, an NCAA All-American at 165 pounds, compiled an 8-1 record on his way to capturing 3rd place at 163.5 pounds.

After defeating Michigan’s Taylor Massa in the consolation semi-finals, Moreno fell behind 11-3 to Kent State’s Ian Miller in the 3rd place match. Moreno then came back to pin Miller, securing the victory with less than a minute to spare.

The annual tournament took place May 23-26 at the University of Akron.

One-on-one with professor Jeff Ames

By Katie.Grunewald @iowastatedaily.com Jeff Ames is a well-known instructor to many journalism students. Ames has taught at Iowa State University for six years, and has a history in writing, producing and directing. He is currently a lecturer for the Greenlee School of Journalism at Iowa State and is also a faculty adviser for journalism students. He lives in Clive, Iowa, approximately 45 minutes away from Ames and commutes to work. He teaches basic journalism classes and advanced skill classes with a focus on students who want to enter a career in broadcast journalism, whether it be behind or in front of a camera.

Do you think teaching in the summer is less stressful or more stressful than teaching during the fall or spring semesters?

Teaching in the summer is much less stressful. There is less to do. The less that you have to do, the less juggling there is.

Do your students’ grades and overall academic performance change depending on whether it’s the summer session or the fall or spring semesters?

Yes, I think students perform better during the summertime for two reasons. The first, if you’re here in the summer there is a correlation of your motivation to work hard, and you physically being here as a student. You’re either here to get ahead, or you’re here because you just want to learn. Second, all of my classes during the fall or spring semesters meet on Tuesday and Thursday, or Monday, Wednesday and Friday. This gives more time for information to seep out and students forget a lot more. In the summer, when a class meets everyday, a lot more sticks with you and students don’t have a chance to get away from it or have it evaporate.

Do you notice a difference in your students’ attitude when it comes to school and being in class?

I don’t see any difference in attitude. My summer students are more focused because they have less to do. I don’t know if it has anything to do with the weather, but it could.

Photo: Jonathan Krueger/ Iowa State Daily Jeff Ames grades papers in his office at Hamilton Hall on May 29, 2013. Ames teaches classes throughout the year including fall, spring and summer.

Do you lose any motivation as an instructor in the summer?

Is there a difference in enrollment size in your classes in the summer session?

I actually enjoy teaching a lot in the summer.

I enjoy both the summer and the semesters, but I like the pace of the summer because we keep things going. Things are really moving and students focus more and then their work gets

better.

No, the same classes are always full, and the other ones are almost full. I teach skill journalism courses, JLMC 201 and JLMC 206, and those are both always full. JLMC 308 and JLMC 354 are advanced broadcast and editing classes

and those are usually near full. In JLMC 354 students work in groups to create video packages, they identify a story and create the package, like they would in their future career. They get a chance to be on live TV and do ten stories in the semester. The only summer class I teach usually is JLMC 201, the others are offered during the fall and spring.

What’s your favorite thing you have done so far during your personal career?

I loved working at Iowa public television, and still do. I go back and do feature stories for them, especially during times like the Iowa State Fair.

When it comes to what I have enjoyed the most, teaching here is it.

History on Campus: Beardshear Hall

By Jonathan.Krueger @iowastatedaily.com Beardshear Hall, located on the west side of Central Campus, is known for where all your tuition money goes. A common rumor students pass around is the green dome located on top of Beardshear Hall is to represent students’ money.

Built in 1906, Beardshear Hall is home to the offices of the president, vice president, treasurer, secretary, student financial aid and the provost of Iowa State University.

Originally, these offices were located in Old Main, which was located where Beardshear currently stands.

However, Old Main burned down in 1900. Quickly after the fire, President William Beardshear started rebuilding the central offices building.

The new building was built to be completely fireproof, including bedford stones and scagliola columns

that deceivingly looked like marble.

The building is so fireproof, the only thing that can catch fire in the building is the hardwood furniture.

In 1938, the building was renamed Beardshear Hall in honor of President William Beardshear, who was president of the institution when planning the construction stages of the then called Central Building.

The original building not only contained the offices of the president and vice president, but it also contained classes and offices for the English, mathematics, botany, history, modern languages and elocution programs. In the 1970s, all classes remaining in Beardshear Hall were then relocated to buildings across the ever growing campus.

Another fun rumor about Beardshear Hall is it is said to be haunted by a former janitor of the original Old Main building, Tom Thompson.

Editorial

Summer term offers chance for focused learning Summer: long, hot days filled with swimming pools, road trips, porch beers and lazy afternoons, right? That’s what many people think summer is best used for, and it’s certainly an enjoyable way to spend the three months between spring and fall semesters.

You would think few people would choose to spend their summer cooped up in classrooms for hours every day, but summer classes are a surprisingly common and beneficial way to spend your summer “vacation.”

For those students who do not have

full-time jobs or internships after spring semester ends, summer serves as a break from hard-core studying and academic worry. Spring and fall semesters contain enough of that stress, and the free time that people have starting in May is highly cherished. Why give that time over to yet more classes and studies?

The answer is simple enough: a fantastic opportunity to really crack down on some necessary classes. During the summer term, campus is practically empty; this might seem tremendously

boring, but it opens up a lot of study spots as well as disposes of much of the usual distraction. With fewer people on campus (and in Ames in general), prioritizing schoolwork is much easier.

Classes themselves during the summer can be more conducive to education. Minimal enrollment ensures that nearly all classes, even introductory courses, are relatively small. These smaller class sizes offer a variety of advantages.

The first is that the classroom experience is more immersive; it’s harder

to get sucked into Facebook when you are one of only 15 people in the room.

Secondly, you can get to know your classmates who, likely as not, are just as excited about the “fun” aspects of summer as you are. The third (though not final) advantage is the ability to get to know your professor. Every student on any campus has the same message drilled into their head: Make connections. Connections with professors are much easier to build when your profesOPPORTUNITY.p7 >>

Harkin’s papers not a disadvantage to students

Sen. Tom Harkin, an Iowa State alumnus, donated his papers from four decades in Congress to Drake University, rather than his alma mater in the most recent scandal of the academic world.

Why would the senator choose not to give his papers to the school he attended?

Supposedly, it was a simple “spat” about restrictions on the research institution named after Harkin and similar partisan decisions made on campus. Harkin’s decision then to donate the papers to a

school that guaranteed nonpartisanship is just a proper reflection of his values.

Secondly, is this a slight by which we should be mortally offended? The answer to that question may not be found in articles on the internet, but it should be nearly as obvious as if it were: No. If it weren’t for the fact the dramatized tension between Harkin and Iowa State University were “newsworthy,” few students would have any knowledge of the occurrence. The only thing that

Editorial Board Stephen Koenigsfeld, editor-in-chief Hailey Gross, opinion editor

makes the story worth talking about is the perceived “slight” towards Iowa State within it.

Furthermore, what use would the papers truly be at Iowa State? Of course, there will be some people who will be disadvantaged by the papers’ placement at Drake University. For individuals in certain fields, papers from a senator recently active in Congress could be quite enlightening.

However, the vast majority of Iowa State students probably wouldn’t even be aware of

the papers’ presence at Iowa State. Maybe the news about the donation would serve as some brief bragging point, but past that, the papers would be ignored. After a year or so of collecting dust in the dark corners of Iowa State’s archives, Harkin’s papers would be forgotten by most students and perhaps some faculty.

Who is to say the papers will not suffer the same fate of neglect at Drake University?

Regardless of location, Harkin’s papers could very well go unused for long peri-

ods of time. Luckily for those few who would actually find the papers useful or interesting, Drake isn’t all that far away. For determined individuals, the papers are still most likely easily accessible.

So, is Harkin’s decision to donate his papers to Drake instead of Iowa State all that offensive? Maybe you’re one of the few people who will be disadvantaged by the newly announced location. If not, we all have better things to do than fret over the fickle politics of the academic world.

sor only needs to remember 10 to 20 faces per class.

The summer term is definitely a more beneficial environment for learning and studying than are the spring and fall semesters.

With fewer students on campus, smaller class sizes, and the lazy summer pace of life, tackling a few

hy does everything have to be a conspiracy or an inside job? The latest theory for conspiracy enthusiasts is that President Obama had a part to play in the Oklahoma tornado to divert attention from his administration scandals.

This is after you thought that the 9/11 conspiracy doesn’t add up, Sandy Hook and Boston bombing truthers are crackpots and Alex Jones was for people who had nothing better to do with their time.

I have always wondered about conspiracies ever since I came to know that the “9/11 truther” movement had a serious following. Why would someone go a long way to discredit something that has been assumed to be the universal truth? Is it just about the sheer distrust in the “official versions”?

An article in the Scientific American notes that psychologists have for a long time believed delusions of conspiracy theorists are associated with paranoia. However, the staggering number of people who believe in different conspiracies makes it difficult to believe in this association.

Studies cited in this article find that there is a general tendency to support conspiracy theories stemming from “distrust of authority.” Also, belief in conspiracies is linked to rejecting scientific evidence and even mere exposure to such

By Varad.Diwate @iowastatedaily.com theories can lead to political and social disengagement.

Ever since I heard of the mastermind Alex Jones, who always finds a globalist conspiracy in every major event, I have wondered if he himself believes what he puts forth as the ultimate truth.

There is good reason to believe that he is more interested in peddling seed vaults and other doomsday stuff.

A Salon article analyzed the bucks behind “Conspiracy Inc.” The estimated revenues in the conspiracy business are mind-boggling. Jones has a media empire with two websites, an online show, a radio show, merchandise sale and tie-ups with “prepper” product (for the impending doomsday!) manufacturers.

Jones’ revenue is estimated to be anywhere between $2.7 million and $10 million. Alex Seitz-Wald writes in this piece, “What’s clear is that he’s savvy and moved adroitly to capitalize on a market that he helped create, impressing every one of our experts with his strategy of developing a loyal cadre of fans who are probably responsible for the bulk of his income.”

Given the millions of dollars riding on his conspiracy theories, I would say Alex Jones has good reason to keep on making new conspiracies.

Shouting, making up odd theo-

classes during the three hot months is absolutely an efficient use of time.

Though summer classes are more condensed and therefore occupy more hours of the day, they are also much shorter. You can knock out three much-needed credits in either four or eight weeks, and have the rest of the summer to spend as you choose.

ries and scaring the populace works just fine to attract new audiences.

So, what would be the consequences of believing something that contradicts even common sense? Some people might say conspiracy theorists are just an overhyped harmless fringe group who practice their right to free speech. Maybe it’s not that simple.

I wonder about the far-reaching effects of this phenomenon. A lot of conspiracy theories can turn into something similar to the boy who cried wolf. If you keep crying for attention on something ridiculous, you are going to be ignored when you need others.

There are genuine stories of human rights violations, overreach of power and other issues that don’t see the light of the day due to powerful interests. Whenever they make it through the alternate media, a lot of people might dismiss these stories as something made up by the “conspiracy nuts.” Another concern is that beliefs often lead to actions that affect others. For example, Gene Rosen, who sheltered kids saved from the Sandy Hook massacre was harassed by the “Sandy Hook truthers.”

Other factors also aggravate the problem. State secrecy in a lot of matters only adds to fuel to conspiracy theories. Its true that a lot

of times we do not hear the complete truth. Facts are lost in the spin on news shows and panel discussions. Powerful interests and a few media conglomerates do not help the situation either.

It also depends on what you would call a “conspiracy.”

If it means actions for an ulterior motive and usually hidden from the general public, then there have been a number of CIA sponsored coups in countries including Iran and the Dominican Republic.

As for open “conspiracies”, there are still U.S. backed rulers and dictators in Saudi Arabia, Turkmenistan and Equatorial Guinea. Well, these are the stories proved to be true over a period of time and make logical sense. Things are being stretched too far when Alex Jones talks about the Illuminati, ruling elite, depopulation and the New World Order.

It’s certainly a good thing to question and scrutinize events and interpret new possibilities. But, it is still important to stay in touch with reality and not stray into la la land. At the end of the day, we all agree (I hope) that we live on a round planet called the earth that revolves around the sun.

Varad Diwate is a freshman in journalism and mass communication from Nashik, India.

Summer semester can be a little pricey, but it’s a worthwhile investment if it will help you graduate earlier or master a necessary job skill.

The campus environment is excellent for studious endeavors during the summer and, if you’re lucky, you’ll still have plenty of time for all the other things that make summer so great.

Above is a graphic that shows the percentages of enrollment, divided up by degree, and shows a comparison between the fall and spring semesters and the summer term.

>>CAMPUS LIFE.p10 After hubbub of the spring semester has ended, the Iowa State University campus is practically empty. Students have moved out of the residence halls, CyRide has cut back on the frequency of routes and the dining centers are bare.

However, some students stayed to take summer classes and compared summer schoolwork with that of the school year while their friends are either working, having fun or taking classes as well.

“Campus is really nice because it’s quiet and there are still people around, but it’s not overloaded. You can sit

and study,” said Megan Paulsen, an elementary education major who will be a junior this fall.

Paulsen is taking three classes during the summer. She is not working this summer, but during the school year she works at the different cafes on campus. Some of her friends are working during the summer and some, like her, are taking classes.

She said she enjoys taking summer classes because they are condensed and get done faster. Having an apartment in Ames also made it possible for her to stay and take classes.

“It definitely keeps you busier in the summer if you’re taking classes,” Paulsen said. “It depends on which

classes you take in the summer as to whether or not summer classes are more stressful.”

Christian Springer, a senior in biology, psychology and international studies, is also taking three classes this summer. After going over his curriculum with his adviser, he decided to take summer classes in order to be able to graduate next year, while learning German on his own.

Springer said he wasn’t sure whether he thinks taking summer classes is more stressful than taking classes during the school year because he thought it’s about the same.

He said there are more activities he has to attend during the school year,

but he works on more homework during the summer.

Ames during the summer was something Springer said he enjoys more so than during the fall or spring.

“It’s not cold in the summer. I really like the summertime because of the weather. It’s a lot more pleasant,” Springer said.

One of Iowa State’s recent graduates, Megan Baughman, is taking organic chemistry this summer as a prerequisite for medical school.

She works at Mary Greeley Medical Center in Ames as a patient care technician.

“For the school year, it’s easier to go to class when everyone else is,”

Baughman said. “In the summer, everyone’s having fun, but it allows me to focus on one class.”

Baughman said the summer is less stressful than the school year because she doesn’t have as heavy of a load.

Although busy, these students have planned to do something fun over the summer.

Paulsen said she will be going home to Minnesota for a little bit, Springer hopes to make it to northern Wisconsin to do some fishing and Baughman will be going to Orlando with her family to take her nephews who are ages 2 and 4.

The summer semester concludes on Aug. 9. Fall classes resume Aug. 26.

Local comedians talk about

upcoming Daniel Tosh performance

By Jenna.Miller @iowastatedaily.com

Comedy Central’s Daniel Tosh is coming to the Iowa State Center on Tuesday, June 4.

Tosh is known for his show Tosh.0, which airs on Tuesday evenings at 9 p.m. on Comedy Central. The show plays video clips from the internet, and Tosh then uses his witty humor to make fun of the people in the videos.

Max Fuson, a local comedian and senior in philosophy at Iowa State, is familiar with Tosh’s work.

“I love his offensive humor, don’t get me wrong, but I think there are other people who do it better,” Fuson said. “Anthony Jeselnik does it better. Not to say Daniel Tosh doesn’t do it well, but he had his own niche and then he kind of forsook that so he could do his own offensive material.”

Joey Ficken, a senior in advertising and psychology said he’s known about Tosh for a while, but isn’t as wild about him as some fans.

“I’ve known about Daniel Tosh since 2006. I saw one of his stand-ups before he became a mainstream celebrity,” Ficken said. “I’ve always thought he was funny, but he’s not my favorite. I’m just a casual fan of his.”

A main point that sets Tosh apart from other comedians, for Ficken, is his offensive humor.

“I’m not huge into the insult comedy, which is what he is,” Ficken said. “I think he’s good at what he does, and I watch his show every once in a while, but I don’t make it a priority.”

With ticket prices at almost $60, fans aren’t letting that stop them; the show is nearly sold out.

“I haven’t gone out of my way to go get a ticket,” Ficken said. “I haven’t ruled out that I wouldn’t go, but I’m not on my way to go get a ticket. That’s a lot of money [and] we do stand-up here in town for free.”

Ficken said Tosh is one of the more popular comedians on tour right now, but he said there are some groups that don’t find his insult comedy all that funny.

“I’ve never really met people that don’t really like him, but that could just be my friend group. There are a lot of people against him. Females don’t seem to like him,” said Ficken.

During a comedy tour last year, Tosh caused controversy in Los Angeles when he said all rape jokes are funny, according to Us Weekly. A woman in the crowd then shouted back that rape is never funny. Tosh then replied with, “Wouldn’t it be funny if that girl got raped by, like, five guys right now?”

Fuson and Ficken both agreed that incident was something that started a trend of displeased Tosh fans.

“As soon as the media got a hold of it, nobody wanted to be on the side defending rape,” Fuson said.

Daniel Tosh Bio

Daniel Tosh: Born in Germany, raised in Florida 38 years old Graduated from the University of Central Florida with a degree in marketing For a short while, Tosh worked as a telemarketer First appeared on “Late Show,” later granted his own “Comedy Central Presents” in 2007 After that he kept small roles on “The Bob & Tom Show,” and “The Love Guru” Tosh.0 aired in 2009, poking fun at viral internet videos and making Tosh a household name

Many women spoke out against this, which caused a stir among popular culture comedy.

“I can see that he’s being honest, but sometimes there’s taste involved, and you think ‘I don’t know if I should say this,’” Ficken said.

Fuson said there was a line that Tosh may have crossed, when poking fun at the rape subject.

“He wasn’t wrong for saying a rape joke, but he was wrong for saying that she should get raped,” said Fuson. “It’s one of those things that, yes, it’s offensive, but she was yelling stuff at him. She’s got to expect to get yelled at back.”

Tosh eventually tweeted an apology for his joke on July 10, 2012, where he said, “All the out of context misquotes aside, I’d like to sincerely apologize.”

Fuson said he didn’t necessarily agree with Tosh’s apologetic message, and he didn’t have anything to apologize for.

“I don’t think he should have had to apologize. There’s a thing you get into when you go to a comedy show,” Fuson said.

“You aren’t going to agree with everything they say and you’re not going to be completely happy. So you’re going to be a offended a little bit.”

With controversy in the past, Ficken said fans should still expect the same offensive humor Tosh usually provides.

“He’s always been pretty offensive, that’s always been his draw. All his specials are the same brand of humor,” Ficken said. “You’re gonna be squirming a little if you’re not into that.”

Fuson said Tosh could approach that fine line once again.

“I’m guessing it’s going to be a mesh of a little bit of everything,” Fuson said. “He’s probably still going to have offensive jokes because that’s bread and butter for everybody. I would imagine he doesn’t only do offensive jokes.”

Iowa State Daily

From East Coast

to Midwest: The thrower’s

STORY

By Ryan Baker Daily correspondent Iowa State track and field thrower Christina Hillman was not interested in shot-put while in high school. A coach only happened notice she was strong and could throw a great distance, so he asked her to take up the event.

Hillman started throwing her freshman year of high school in Delaware and averaged a distance in the 30-feet region.

“There weren’t a lot of good throwers in Delaware at the time, but I decided to pursue it,” Hillman said.

In her senior year of high school, Hillman improved her average distance by 11-feet.

Her success caught the attention of Iowa State throws coach, Grant Wall, who contacted Hillman and talked with her about Iowa State and its program.

“She had a lot of potential and that competitive edge,” Wall said.

Hillman toured Iowa State’s campus on an official visit, and immediately knew what she was going to get from the campus.

“I fell in love with everything here. I love the campus, the atmo-

sphere, the team,” Hillman said.

“It was a pretty easy decision to come here.”

Hillman said she was thankful for Wall and giving her a chance.

“Coach believed in me when I was only throwing 39-feet, he saw potential and he was willing to offer me a scholarship for just my potential and I am really grateful for that” Hillman said.

Wall said he has seen first hand the maturation process take over Hillman.

Hillman is currently a double major studying psychology and child and adult family services with a minor in Chinese. She is contemplating trying out to compete for a spot on the 2016 Olympic team, though she is wanting to begin her career post-graduation as well.

“I want to get into my career eventually, it just really depends on how I’m doing that year,” Hillman said.

Hillman said her nerves are also playing an impact on her desire to compete in the Olympics.

“Im just going to keep training and keep up with my academics and see what happens,” Hillman said.

Reception venues are important for weddings

By Saige.Heyer @iowastatedaily.com

Photo: Courtesy of Hilton Garden in Ames The Hilton Garden in Ames is decorated for a wedding reception. Ballrooms such as the one at the Hilton Garden have become hot places for receptions.

One of the first decisions a bride should make while planning a wedding is the reception venue. You need to keep in mind the theme of your wedding, the location and your number of guests, not to mention your budget.

“The most important thing is how it relates to the feel of their wedding. A venue is an atmosphere. Make sure your vision for your wedding is reflected in the venue,” said Kyra Jacobsen, of White Willow Events.

Jacobsen said the location of the venue is just as important, if not more so, than its capacity. You do not want your guests to drive too far between the ceremony and the reception. You also want to make sure there is ample parking and that it’s easily accessible.

When choosing a venue, decide if you just want to serve a meal or if you want to include dance as well. Depending on what you have planned, one room can fit either 100 people or 200 people.

>>VENUE.p14 There isn’t necessarily a reason to worry about whether you will be having a D.J. or a band, as they both take up about the same amount of room.

Two event venues available in Ames are Scheman Building at the Iowa State Center and the Hilton Garden Inn of Ames.

The Scheman Building is located right in the heart of Ames close to campus. They have three locations that hold anywhere from 150-300 guests.

Their event staff provides full services from the time they set up the tables to the time they take them down, and catering is available through ISU Dining Services.

“If I coordinate the event, I want it to go great for them so they have a good experience,” said Pat Dennis, Director of Event and Conference Services at Scheman.

Dennis said the event coordinators are there every step of the way, including the night of the event.

Some of the first things Dennis

asks for is the date of the event.

This is to check availability and the number of guests in order to determine which location would be best.

There is a $500 deposit, which is nonrefundable but does count toward the final bill.

Once the rental space is secured, the wedding party can start decorating as early as 8 a.m. and the event has to end by midnight. Time is allowed after the event to clean up and take any decorations the couple may want to save.

Another venue in Ames to hold a reception is the Grand Ballroom (2,240 square feet) at the Hilton Garden Inn of Ames, located just off Mortensen Drive and Highway 30 in West Ames.

They, too, have a $500 non-refundable deposit that is put toward the final bill. Services include tables, linens, staff, catering and table settings. The staff is in charge of setting everything up and taking it all down.
