My favorite fall activity is probably watching movies.
Fall is the time of the year that pumpkin spice is in the air, temperatures drop and leaves start to fall off the trees forming into perfect piles for jumping. For everyone who lives in Corpus Christi however, fall is a brief reprise of the scorching hot temperatures and a welcome to all things holiday. I know for me, fall is my favorite of the four seasons because there is so much to do even when it’s 90 degrees outside. Here are my five ways to do fall. 1. Pumpkin patches. While most pumpkins are used to carve for Halloween, pumpkin patches are still a very fall-y thing to do. Nothing is better than going out to a huge pumpkin patch, where most have something to do besides just pumpkin picking, and explor-
ing all the different pumpkins. If you have never gone pumpkin picking, I highly recommend it, but be prepared to spend at least 30 minutes minimum searching for the perfect pumpkin. 2. Haunted Houses. Haunted houses are more of a Halloween event, but Halloween is what kick starts the fall holidays. So as the weather drops a few degrees, make sure you grab a couple of friends and go haunted house hunting. This can be exploring an abandoned warehouse or going to a planned event where people jump out in costumes, scaring you. You can usually find a haunted house on the U.S.S. Lexington here in Corpus Christi. 3. Corn mazes. Corn mazes are when corn stalks are grown throughout the year and then a maze pattern, of various designs, cut through the corn. People are dropped off at one end of the confusing path and told to find their way through. It is a family-friendly event that always has good memories.
IZZY SNEED/Island Waves
There are several corn maze attractions throughout Texas and even the United States. A popular Corn Maze is the South Texas Corn Maize located in Hondo, Texas. 4. Fall Food. Honestly, the best way to do fall in my opinion is finally cooking all the different Fall treats. Fall is the perfect time for devouring tamales, menudo and pumpkin pies. If you want to get even more festive, you can plan around each holiday. For example, mummy jalapeĂąo poppers are a great way for people to get into the Halloween spirit. Fall has many different activities but nothing beats spending time with my grandma or cousin and cooking
up the family meal. 5. Apple Picking. This is one thing I have always wanted to do. The best apple picking takes place in the Fall because it is prime time for apple ripening. Plus, once you are done in the orchard, you can make homemade apple pies or apple turnovers. Yum! These are just a few examples of how to get in the Fall seasonal spirit. You can even decorate your house to the max, go on hay bale rides with friends or even sample the limited-time holiday drinks making their appearances in the grocery stores. Happy apple-picking, food-cooking, pumpkin-carving season!

Fraternities suspended after hazing investigation JONATHAN FORNEY @jb4nay
A
nnounced on Sept. 26, as discipline for hazing, the fraternities of Delta Chi and Sigma Phi Epsilon are suspended for one year. Following the completion of sanctions, the organizations may resume activities on disciplinary probation for another year. Assistant vice president for student life Lisa Perez sent out a notice to all students to inform them of the suspensions. The punishment is the result of members of the Student Life organization receiving reports of hazing activities being conducted by the aforementioned organizations and an investigation by Student Life. “We’re not a court of law, this is an educational process,” Perez said. “We’re looking for if during the investigation there are any violations of our code of conduct.” Once the investigation con-
cluded, the fraternities were given the opportunity to handle the situation through an internal resolution process. During that period, they were able to determine if they wanted to go through a formal or informal process. Both Delta Chi and Sigma Phi Epsilon opted for the formal process. The formal process included a hearing with a panel who decided if there were in fact violations of the code of conduct. Once the panel decided there were conduct violations, they assigned punishment; in this case, suspensions, sanctions and probation were issued. Student Life did not punish individuals following the investigation. “We handle discipline for student organizations as a whole, not individually,” Perez said. The suspension period removes the benefits of these groups as organizations but not as individual students out-
side of their respective fraternities. “All their privileges have been removed on campus. That includes use of space, facilities and being able to work as a group for the period of one year,” Perez said. The students retain their rights as student individuals.” Members of these fraternities have recognized the severity of the situation and are looking to find a more positive way to approach their disciplinary periods. “If anything, it gives me more time for class and to work on myself personally,” said Trevor Wulff, junior criminal justice major and Sigma Phi Epsilon member. “It’s hard not being able to hang out with all my brothers because it’d be considered a fraternity event.” In addition to the suspensions, the panel also established sanctions that each fraternity must fulfill before being placed on probation-
ary status. If any members of the organizations in question were found to violate the code of conduct during the probationary period, they may have to go through another process. There is also an educational component to the sanctions. During this time the organizations must meet with the Greek Life office to fulfill their respective sanction. “We hope that both of these organizations will take to light what they have been found to have violated with our conduct process and that their behavior will change and they’re not placed in a similar place,” Perez said. Delta Chi will be suspended until May 31, 2017, and following completion of sanctions, placed on probation until May 31, 2018. Sigma Phi Epsilon will be suspended through June 1, 2017, and when their sanctions are satisfied, placed on probation until June 1, 2018.
Students lose free printing privileges on campus GERI LEMMONS @GeriLemmons
S
tudents at Texas A&M University-Corpus Christi will no longer be provided with free prints from the Island University. Usually at the beginning of the school year, the Island University provides each student $5 for printing on campus. As of Fall 2016, this luxury is gone and most students are wondering why. Reginald Wade said director of university services, the free printing program started in 2009. The program began to entice students to use the printers provided on campus. “I told my VP [vice president] that I wanted to start a program that gave full-time students 50 free prints and part time students half of that.” Wade said. “As incentive to get them to start using the program.” It was made to be a temporary program but, because it
did so well, they decided to continue it. However, University Services decided to keep the program as long as they did “not go into the red.” Wade said they made a small profit last year with the free printing program but not enough to actually keep the program going. “It is a program that I started and I would like to continue it,” Wade said. “But I have to think about other things.” Depending on what road university services decides to take, the program could eventually come back in the future. They have many options to choose from. Wade said they could outsource or try to find another payment method for students other than Sand Dollars. There could be a chance that in the future students could be able to use credit cards in order to pay for their printing. This program was not paid for by student fees, it was actually free and available to

4 News Aquarium hosts mini golf tournament for animals JONATHAN FORNEY @jb4nay
T
he Rising Tide Society of the Texas State Aquarium hosted its second annual Putt Putt Tournament on Friday, Sept.30. All proceeds for the event went to the aquarium’s Second Chances Wildlife Rehabilitation program. The idea for a mini golf tournament at the aquarium came together to offer attendees a unique experience. “We thought ‘what would be fun?’ and Putt Putt came up,” said Richard Glover, chief marketing officer for the aquarium. “Then having the holes go through the exhibits was something most people wouldn’t get to experience.” The event was put together by the combined efforts of volunteers, aquarium staff and various sponsors. After mingling, attendees could help themselves to catering donated by Mike Cotten’s BBQ from Portland and purchase drinks at the bar. The ambition of those putting the event on reminded one longtime member of the aquarium board

what she hopes to see from its employees. “I really hope to see young, up and coming professionals get involved with the aquarium,” said Deneece Squires, 10-year aquarium board member. Animals in the Second Chances Program include Blondie, a golden eagle who has been with program since June 2015. She was found stuck in powerlines in Nevada and was unable to fly. She made an appearance at the event allowing event goers to see what sorts of animals the program helps with their charity. Once everyone had eaten, it was time for golf. In 2015, there were nine holes in the tournament. This year there were 18 holes of varying difficulty played by the teams of four throughout the aquarium’s first floor exhibits. One hole even went through an actual shark cage. More than half of the holes were provided by the sponsors of the event, but those that were not featured information about the Second Chances Program. The various sponsors helped keep
the direct cost to the aquarium low for the true purpose of the evening. “We do everything we can to minimize costs so as much of the money as possible can go to the rehabilitation program,” Glover said. In addition to the tournament, another popular attraction was the 50-Foot Challenge. Patrons could pay either $5 for two attempts or $10 for five attempts to hit a golf ball down a 50-foot course onto a target ring. The closer to the target someone got, the more raffle tickets they earned toward a trip for two to Port Aransas (totaling $1,425 of value). The winner of the raffle was Texas A&M University-Corpus Christi graduate student and vice president of the Rising
Tide Society, Stephanie Kusy. Throughout the night, patrons had the opportunity to bid on a table full of unique items in the silent auction. Items such as concert tickets, a basketball signed by San Antonio Spurs player Tony Parker, paintings by local artists, passes to exercise classes and much more. Even if those who bid were outbid, they still got a Chick-Fil-A coupon just for bidding. The auction brought even more proceeds toward Second Chances. “I was nervous since this was my first time [hosting the event] but it went, we had over 160 people come and support Second Chances,” said Emily Paulison, co-chair of the Rising Tide Society.

‘Making Strides’ for breast cancer awareness MELISSA RODRIGUEZ @melisssaaaa
O
n Saturday, Oct. 15, Islanders can join the American Cancer Society in a walk to support breast cancer survivors and awareness for people around the Coastal Bend. Making Strides Against Breast Cancer is the only event the American Cancer Society does for a specific type of cancer. This non-profit organization has recognized the prominence of breast cancer in the bay area, which is why they brought the event back for the eighth consecutive year. “The money that we raise through Making Strides Against Breast Cancer is restricted to breast cancer, so it helps local patients with programs and services and also helps to fund breast cancer research,” said Kayla Hanson, senior community manager with American Cancer Society-High Plains Division. This year, Bayfront Park, located at 1513 N. Shoreline Blvd.,will hold the walk. This is a different location from the previous years. Making Strides will also offer off-site parking at Whataburg-
er Field where Corpus Christi Regional Transportation Authority (CCRTA) will be running a continuous shuttle from the field to the walk location. There will be a tent set up for all participants to check in beginning at 7:30 a.m. The walk is set to commence at 9 a.m.. A post-walk finish-line party with live bands, food trucks, contests and silent auctions will happen until 2 p.m. To register, Hanson said it is better to do it online prior to arriving at the walk simply for convenience and expediting the check-in process. However, there will still be paper registration forms the day of the walk. “We just ask everyone, whether you’ve registered online or not, to just check in at our check-in tent first thing,” Hanson said. “I’m really excited to attend the event this year in Corpus Christi and can’t wait to make even a small impact on our community,” said Samantha Hernandez, freshman allied health major. Hanson said the main goal for this event is to bring people the opportunity to celebrate breast cancer survivors in their lives and loved ones who have
been lost to the disease. “It makes me happy because people come together to support something bigger than themselves,” Hernandez said. “And it makes you realize that no matter what may be going on in
the world, people can come together to make a difference and support each other.” For more information or to register for the walk, visit makingstrideswalk. org/corpuschristitx.

Dig Pink fuels Islanders Southland victory JAMIE FINK @JK_Fink
W
hile the Island University hosted Dig Pink on Thursday night to battle breast cancer, the Texas A&M-Corpus Christi Islanders and Stephen F. Austin Lady Jacks battled on the court for sole control of the Southland Conference. The Islanders and Lady Jacks both entered the match tied atop the Southland Conference volleyball rankings with perfect 4-0 records. However, the Islanders emerged victorious in a 2520, 27-25, 26-24 sweep for their 21-consecutive regular season conference win. “Dig Pink is our favorite game of the year,” said Islanders libero Kate Klepetka. “We were stoked that it was SFA be-

cause it just gives you that extra driving force because we do not lose Dig Pink games.” The Islanders upperclassmen took control of the match for A&M-Corpus Christi leading the Islanders to their fifth consecutive sweep to open conference play. Morgan Carlson and Brittany Gilpin led the way for the Islanders combining for 22 kills, 11 kills respectively. Under the control of first-year head coach Steve Greene, the Islanders have used a fast-paced and well-balanced attack to wear out opponents defensively. During Thursday’s match, six different Islanders recorded five kills or more to keep the Lady Jacks on their toes. “Steve is such an incredible coach. The way he runs our offense is extremely fast and so far no one in con-

ference has been unable to stop us,” said Islanders middle blocker Madeline Doud. “It puts a lot of pressure on our offense, but I think Steve has been able to coach us in a way that we’ve been able to handle that beautifully.” Stephen F. Austin pushed the Islanders into some of the tightest sets they have faced this season. The Lady Jacks forced the Islanders over the 25-point barrier in both of the final two sets, but eventually lost both sets. “SFA is probably one of the best hitting teams that we’ve had so far in our conference so of course we are not going to see as many blocks,” Doud said. “I think we did a really good job of setting it up so that our defense could play around us.” The Islanders saw big play out
of sophomore middle blocker Madi Fitzsimmons who helped maintain the net by adding eight kills and four blocks. In the final set, A&M-Corpus Christi used a late rally, after head coach Steve Greene received a yellow card following a disagreement with the lead official. The Islanders rallied from a 20-18 deficit to win the final set 26-24 on a kill from Doud, her ninth of the night. The Islanders finished the night as one of the few teams still undefeated in conference play in the country. A&M-Corpus Christi returns home to the Dugan Wellness Center for a doubleheader facing off with Houston Baptist University on Oct. 13, followed by a bout with Lamar on Saturday, Oct. 15 starting at 1 p.m.

ZTA ‘Think Pink’ for breast cancer awareness
MELISSA RODRIGUEZ @__melisssaaaa
A
s part of their philanthropic mission, the Zeta Tau Alpha chapter at Texas A&M University-Corpus Christi is encouraging the campus to “think pink” in honor of Breast Cancer Awareness month. ZTA is one of four Panhellenic social sororities at the Island University. Their chapter philanthropy is dedicated to breast cancer awareness and education, which is why, this month especially, they are encouraging everyone to “think pink.” “October is important because that’s our philanthropy,” said Alexandra Davis, senior nursing major and ZTA member. “We really go above and beyond to let people know what our philanthropy is and try to raise awareness for it because it’s near and dear to a lot of our hearts.” ZTA made it their mission to promote their philanthropy even more this month by creating a schedule of fun events that will help spread awareness and education on campus.
Simultaneously, the events allow them to raise proceeds to donate to breast cancer research. ZTA will sponsor events such as Big Man on Campus, a male participant pageant, which will be on Oct. 21. Although raising funds for breast cancer research is an important part of this chapter, ZTA is also trying to focus a greater amount of their efforts on the educational aspect of their philanthropy. “Our goal is to bring awareness to the campus because one out of eight women is diagnosed with breast cancer,” Davis said. “So I think we should just let women know that we’re getting to the age where this is definitely something that can happen to a lot of us.” “Think Pink” is not ZTA’s mantra just for this month, it is actually one of their sorority’s nationally recognized trademarks. Davis said Zeta Tau Alpha uses the phrase as a way of saying to use this month to associate the color pink with breast cancer awareness. “To me it hits home,” said Alicia Voigt, junior biomedical science major and ZTA member. “And to a lot of the girls

in our chapter that is what made them come to Zeta.” Voigt also said ZTA is really trying to get people to realize how high the chances of getting breast cancer are and how badly it hits home when it happens to you personally. “It really means a lot to see a bunch of
girls just volunteering to help out in the community by helping raise money and getting awareness out there for something like breast cancer” said Voigt. Check out http://tamucc.zetataualpha.org/chapter-philanthropy to find out more about what this chapter is all about.

Local brewing company open to students
MIKAYLA OELSCHLEGEL @mikaylaMOG
O
n Feb. 6 Varian Criser and his wife’s three-year plan come to life with the opening of Lorelei Brewing Company in Corpus Christi. Criser is the owner of one of five local brewing companies in the Corpus Christi area. He owns Lorelei Brewing Company that has its home base in Flour Bluff. When Criser first started, he remembered that there were no local brewing companies in Corpus Christi and that is what drew him to having a brewery here. “At the time, we did not have any, and we saw the need for craft beer,” Criser said. “No one was making any here in Corpus Christi and craft beer is about going somewhere and experiencing what they have to offer. I mean what is the fun in traveling 3000 miles somewhere to go eat at a McDonalds?” While Lorelei is a local brewing company, it does not mean they get their products locally. Criser explains that their grains, hops and yeast, which are three of the four ingredients to make
the brew have to be imported from cities outside of Corpus Christi, and even outside of Texas. To keep their process local they give their used grains to local farmers to feed their cattle for free. “We use water from Texas, but what’s great about our brewery is you’re not going to get the same beer overall taste or feeling from each beer,” said Valeria McClendon, general manager of Lorelei Brewing. “Each beer is specifically targeted to a different style, which makes it so drinkability. McClendon said visitors will come in and say they aren’t sure if they really like beer and then try it find something they may like because of the different flavors. For Criser and McClendon Lorelei is unique because the brewery is not a just a brewery, they have a lounge and an outside area for families to spend time and students to relax and study. They also have food trucks that come every weekend. “We really pride ourselves on being dog-friendly and kid-friendly,” McClendon said. “We have giant chalkboard outside; we have hula-hoops on
the weekends, dog bowls everywhere, the dog treats we make.” McClendon said the company promotes their outdoor area so more families come hang out and experience Lorelei. The inside is more for relaxation in the lounges. Criser moved to Corpus Christ six years ago and looks at Corpus as being a great opportunity for Lorelei. The company currently only sells kegs but in the upcoming months, they are looking at packaging and expanding their business. “A lot of people talk negatively about Corpus being 10 to 20 years behind the times, myself being an entrepreneur, look at that as a positive,” Criser said. “We are not in the middle of nowhere town, we’re not a desolate town that has no hope. There is so much opportunity here that it is insane.” Lorelei beers are in 33 locations across Corpus Christi, Port Aransas and the Island. If you want more information about Lorelei Brewing, you can go to their website at http://www.loreleibrewing. beer/.

MCG Stroll Off GERI LEMMONS @GeriLemmons
O
n Sept. 30 the Multicultural Greek Council hosted a stroll off in the University Center Anchor Ballroom at Texas A&M University-Corpus Christi. The stroll off was an opportunity for some of the Greek organizations to come out and perform some dances in friendly competition with each other. “I loved representing my letters at the stroll off,” said Antonia Cannon, senior nursing major. “All of MGC organizations did amazing.” Each Greek organization had three rounds to show off their hard work and preparations. Each round got more intense as the competition progressed and the group had an opportunity to provide music, wardrobe changes and props to their routine. Eric Avery, senior Alpha Phi Alpha, said he thought it was good and he felt like it went by really fast compared to others in the past. “Overall I am proud of my brothers,” Avery said. “I don’t care what anyone has to say about us and how we did.”
After the three rounds were over, students and staff voted on who did the best. They did this through twitter and casted their votes using hashtags. After a short period of time, voting time was over and Sigma Lambda Gamma was announced as the winner. The different groups that participated were Alpha Kappa Alpha, Lambda theta Alpha, Sigma Lambda Gamma, Alpha Phi Alpha, and Omega Delta Phi. “My favorite part is the first round,” said Antonio Sanchez, junior nursing major. Towards the end, all the groups came together and strolled to some of the same songs, each in their own special way. Sanchez said that he was really happy with how they did as a group and how the whole even turned out. He was happy about how far they have come as a group. “In the past ODPhi at stroll events has not been too great,” Sanchez said. “We practiced really hard this time and we are so happy with how things have turned out. It has been some work but, we are happy it is over.”
