Students and families examine glass work at the Gaffer’s Guild stand at the Cyclone Market on Sunday morning at Richardson Court. This was the first year the Cyclone Market took place, and it partly came about to help clubs fundraise after Veishea was cancelled. This year, 23 clubs and organizations participated.
Displaying their wares ISU clubs exhibit goods at Cyclone Market, raise funds lost with Veishea By Chrissy Ditmer, contributor to the Daily Cyclone Market, Iowa State’s own farmers market of sorts, showcased student clubs and organizations by providing them with an outlet for fundraising and outreach Sunday morning at Richardson Court. Cyclone Market, which took place for the first time this year, was established and executed by the Government of the Student Body and the Inter-Residence Hall Association. Sam Schulte, GSB university affairs committee chairman, said planning for the event started in February. The event focused on student organizations instead of inviting outside vendors to campus. “This is the first year, so we’re learning as we go along,” Schulte said. He added that the market included 23 different organizations and that coordinating with all of them took a lot of work. The frequency of the event in the future will be determined by feedback from the vendors and the public.

A crowd of people walk across Richardson Court at the Cyclone Market on Sunday. Because it was Family Weekend, the market got more traffic than expected.
Zaak Barnes, IRHA vice president, said that GSB came to the association late last school year after the cancellation of Veishea. GSB representatives lobbied for Cyclone Market funding in hopes of the event being a showcase for students. IRHA agreed that new avenues to fundraise and bring awareness to student organizations were needed in the absence of Veishea.
“They are really the ones who were hit hard,” Barnes said about student organizations after Veishea was cancelled. According to Schulte, foot traffic was better than expected due to a Family Weekend brunch that was being hosted nearby at Conversations Dining. Parents and students alike

Campus Crest, the owners of The Grove and Copper Beech, seeks to answer their tenants’ questions. Robert Dan, chief operations officer for Campus Crest, said Copper Beech will help students with any problems found in their apartments upon their move-in date. Dan said their priority will be to appease students’ complaints and communicate with students on future complaints as well as how to solve their present concerns. “The most important thing for [Campus Crest] is the students. We house over 46,000 students across the country, we know where our bread is buttered, and that is taking care of the students. If we run into an issue like this, we take care of them the best we can.” He also says that the construction delay that caused the complex to pay for some of their tenants to live in hotels until the building was complete was largely due to soil issues on the property. “We had soil issues that we had to deal with, which was a struggle when we did The Grove project as well. The soil is very fertile, and it has been very difficult to find firm soil to build on. It’s a little more difficult to work with,” Dan said.

Midfielder Alyssa Williamson scored the second ISU goal during the Cy-Hawk game against Iowa on Friday. The Cyclones beat the Hawkeyes 2-1.
Iowa State hadn’t beaten rival Iowa in women’s soccer since 2005, but in front of a recordbreaking crowd, two seniors stepped up and led the Cyclones to a 2-1 victory. The Hawkeyes took an early lead, going up 1-0 on Iowa State in the 24th minute. The rest of the first half remained a scoreless dogfight with physical play and an ISU yellow card. The game took a turn during the 57th minute when senior Hayley Womack got an assist from
junior Haley Albert and scored to tie the game up. When Womack scored, the record-breaking crowd of 2,090 went wild. “I was taking it down line and I saw that the keeper was shifted toward the near post,” Womack said. “I saw the back post was open, so I was going to fly to the ball that way, and it was either going to go in the net or Koree [Willer], who was making a back post run, would’ve been there to finish it.” With the game tied up and intensity at a high, senior Alyssa Williamson put the game away with the game-winning goal in
